Question - I keep coming across reference to Liara drinking elasa. Is this alcohol mentioned in the games (uh, ME 2 at Eternity or something?)? If so, I must not have been paying attention (or forgotten it).  

EDIT: It was first mentioned in Mass Effect: Revelations, or at least it WAS mentioned in Revelations. Perhaps in another part of the non-game lore.

@fluffywalrus, I actually thought that it was made up by Theodoro in his fanfic...

Haha, I thought it was originated in fan-created lore, until I searched Mass Effect wikia for Elasa. It's mentioned in the Chora's Den entry. Anderson is offered it by a volus bartender.

*snip*

Mass Effect Revelation ...

"This is elasa," he explained as he filled the glass with a pale green liquid. "From Thessia".

The asari home world. Anderson, nodded, then took a tentative sip. The drink was sharp and cold, but it wasn't exactly unpleasant. The lingering aftertaste was particularly strong, and markedly different from the first sip. It was a bitter flavor, with an undertone of tangy sweetness. It he had to use one word to describe it, he would have said "poignant.

"Not bad," he said approvingly, taking another sip.

Ah! *light bulb goes on*   Now I understand why the drink is used in certain settings.

@fluffywalrus and PMC65, thanks!

Another question : is there a site (I don't mean Wiki ME) that lists all things Asari? From every important thing to the most mundane.

Not that I'm aware of ... maybe someone else around here knows.  Sorry.

What's wrong with ME Wikipeida? I think everything you need to know is there.

[Aristobulus500]

If there isn't, it'd be neat if someone here made such a database. As an added bonus, you could have a segment devoted to storing all the fanfics and such people post here.

But that's just me kinda throwing out ideas. It's certainly beyond me to create a site like that.

What would you guys do if Liara was the only LI who didn't get a LI DLC?

Doesn't seem like a very likely scenario, to say the least.

[Aristobulus500]

Throw it in the faces of everyone who said that Liara was Bioware's Golden Girl.

[Erenbe]

I don't think there will be any LI DLC....a) it's too much work to account for all characters unless everything is located at exactly the same place but even then it's too much voice work I would guess....and it's too much work

That doesn't make sense, Erenbe, it's not like LotSB didn't take lots of work - and it paid off for them! It's widely considered an amazing DLC, not just for ME, but in general.

Illium is one of the locations on the map that you can't acces, just like Omega. If you think about it, they could do a single bonny and clyde style mission, and just change the LI around.
@Aristobulus500 

Yup I would do that too. I think people would still find a way to whine however.

Then I would  have a good reason (except for the ending) to say that Bioware is 100% SH*T.
But that won't happen...

Thank you for reading it, and I'm happy that you liked it! I'll read both of yours tomorrow that you posted in this page since it's getting way too late here already.

Thanks for your comments on DA, quite the compliment you paid me in regard to Interludes and Missives

Much appreciated feedback there

Actually, I do have the storage capability to do that. But I'm a dummy at web building (it comes with a handy little program to build one but as I've said, I'm no designer) so I never use it for anything than to store my own knickknacks like pixs.

I'd like to do it, come to think of it... *thinks*

The Wiki is definitely the place to look for asari info, what little there is.

I really loved every chapter of your story - I had a lot to read to catch up, but it was certainly worth it. I really like your writing style, and also you have written every person from Shepard's squad in-character. I could just picture them saying the things they do - as if they were taken out right from the game itself - and this is hard to achieve, and you deserve praise for that. The glossary also helped me out a great deal when reading the story, and it's great that you give background information every now and then that helps the story flow better once a reader's checked it out. Excellent work.

If you'd like to, of course, I'd love it if you gave my Shepard and Liara story a look. I'd really like your opinion as you are obviously adept at writing fan fiction stories and I'm relatively new to the field.

No problem! Can't wait for more Kira & Liara stories. Collars, Rings and Garters was also quite a twist.  Do you plan to continue the story from 'Close Enough to Touch', or are you going to explore the plot after ME3's ending (or rather your own alternative one)?

Not sure at the moment. I tend to write short ones as I have ideas, but always try to make them gel with the others for a single continuity.

I think Close Enough To Touch stands alone as an episode in that continuity, I may do a Vancouver story for the ME3 opening and Kira's first chance to use the gift

As for Collars, thanks for the comments on that. Writing it felt awkward, but the reactions seem to indicate that this was just how I felt being so close to the project and that once I stepped back from it, well it wasn't actually all that bad

Oh, those Cannibals in Vancouver don't stand a chance if Kira decides to test the gift!
But yeah, that's what I thought, as well, that your other separate fanfics are also valid for Kira's story with Liara, so you have the freedom to explore whatever part of the ME lore you want as soon as you get an idea as to what to write. That's what I'll be going for with my future stories.

Aw, thank you!

I will try to read your stuff…it’s near the top of my list of things I need to catch up on. I’ve had my hands full with “Unity” and gorgeous weather  conspiring to keep me from reading…
