Making her constantly this "understanding" soul starts to get a little grating and I want her to push back, at least a little. Yes, I am still glaring at the whole three-some = I'm glad you picked me moment. No Liara! Walk away, please! Follow Ashley's lead!
But I must keep reminding myself that she is asari and not a human.
Ugh no. I like Ashley and actually picked her the first time around. But she's terrible in that confrontation. "Following her lead" in anything even resembling that capacity actually makes me cringe. Of course the whole scene could've been handled better (at least with a different Liara response if she wins by default). And there's nothing wrong with threesomes!
If nothing else, I want to emphasise the difference between understanding and pushover. Liara is the former, not the latter.
I don't think that asaris would have an issue with threesomes but that line "I'm glad you picked me" after Shepard says both. No Liara, Shepard didn't pick you ... *facepalm*
http://t1.gstatic.co...JdDSvDhZHdcIUEwAnd I thought Ashley's response fit her perfectly and should have at least set off a bell to Liara. After all, she is trying to understand the rules and ways of humans so when she sees a female human's response to that line you would think that it would make her pause, at least for a second. But nope. So I personally avoid that option because it not only does not fit any of my Shepards but it makes Liara look stupid
to me with her response and she is not stupid.
*shakes fist at Ashley* "Damn you for walking away and not letting me have my cake and eating it too! You are so selfish!"
There is also a fine line between understanding and being a pushover ... Liara teeters on that line
to me. So I avoid the choices that make me feel that way and pick the more "push back" lines. It's all personal perception.
