What? Why?

This works on the assumption that Shepard has known Liara for the 3 years, and has finally sorted himself/herself out. And, knowing that you may die tomorrow can really help focus the mind.

Because I think it would've been nice if they kept Liara's romance exclusive to returning players. That's what they did in LotSB, and I felt that set a precedent. Then they go and reverse that decision by opening up her romance to new players in ME3. It's not a big deal, but... it's not like us loyal players got much in the form of exclusives. Romances with ME1 characters would've been a big one.


But it's a different type of romance.  One in which friendship turned into something more.  New Liaramancers miss out on a lot of the fluff leading up to Cronos, like the peck on the nose, the tenderness on Mars...  And when Shepard expresses love for Liara, there's even a slight pause, almost like hesitation, before Liara responds in kind.

Not that I'm ever going to see it, but it doesn't bother me that it's an option.  It definitely bothers me less than the treatment most of the ME2 romances got in ME3...

Aww, well I thought it was pretty sweet that we went straight to the lovey dovey on Mars, and it carries on throughout, kinda.

But anyway, I got more than plenty of Liara, so I won't really complain, unless it's to say there should be more Liara!

Thanks. I might well do that at
some point actually. I've not written anything in a while (love writing
fan stories) and at the very least I need to write up myself a headcanon
ending.

I've been considering writing some stuff to go
in-between what happens in the games as well actually. I'm one of those
who subscribes to the whole "more happens than we see" philosophy so
could be interesting.

Of course if I do that I'll post a link up here. [smilie]../../../images/forum/emoticons/wink.png[/smilie]


Between the two of you we'd probably have the Liara canon wrapped up for the Liara thread.

Also,
I fear if I ever decided to hop on to the fanfic scene, I'll follow
Bioware's canon, no matter how badly it hurts... I find it strange that I
don't want to rewrite the ending that much now..

Liara doesn't say it first but says it back to Shepard.

I know it's against the new ToS, but I have a perfect gif response to this.


*is curious*

How's this though?

Now that's my girl. Armored up and ready to kick ass.

I'm going to have to save Kaidan next time I play ME1 just so I can see lots of renegade Liara.

On the dancing, at least Liara didn't take the ****** out of Shepard's dancing like pretty much every other character did.

You're way too generous. The extent of my fanfic stuff in here thus far is that short post and my earlier example of how I'd do a personal Shepard log.

With all this flattery I think I'm genuinely going to have to sit down and write at least a short scene for you guys. ;)

I've got half an idea already but I'll need to review some bits of Mass Effect to be sure it fits.

You're right, new players do miss a lot.  The stuff on Mars was great, the Aethyta dialogue, and the flatterer scene... wonderful stuff.  Of course, Aethyta assumes everyone slept with Liara, so I guess that doesn't count.

Well, you don't have to sit on my lap and kiss my nose, just get with the fanfics! :P

Sorry, I had to say that. This is the Liara thread, after all.

Ah, well Liara knows the truth about Shepard's dancing.

I love that scene. The normally calm, serene Asari losing her composure. Shows just how much strength is hidden inside.


Yeah shes really pissed at Javik, and i think he would make a very sticky smear on the bulkhead, but Liara has a bit more class than that.

i know the Paragon interupt is there, but my male shep knows when to leave well alone.

Haha, its cool. Its just going to be a little awkward and take a day or so to do anything. I was planning on starting a new game from the very beginning of ME1 to play out the entire Liara romance (with Kaiden surviving this time around) without the big breaks between games. And I was going to use that to build up a file save bank so I could go review any bit of the game I wanted for fanfiction notes.

The bit I want is, fortunately, pretty early on. So I can get there quite quickly and combined with youtube it should be ok. But its kinda late now and I want to draft out a brief plan so it'll probably take a few days. And even then I got my daily blogs to do. ^_^

And I guess I'll have to create a fanfiction.net account or something so I can post it somewhere.

Anyone knows where Matriarch Aethyta is after Cerberus attack on the Citadel ? I can't seem to find the Matriarch and it would be lovely to see if Liara and her Father have something more to share. Thanks.

Mordin dies anyway if you play Paragon Shep, right? My Mordin sacrafice himself to spread the cure. Is there a scenario where he doesn't die?


Yes. If both Eve and Wrex is dead, renegade Shepard can convince him that sabotaging the cure is the right choice. Mordin will then fake his own death and secretly help build the crucible.


So you have to play Renegade to save both Mordin and Tali? Wow.

As far as I know she's gone after the attack.  No word on where she went, but she's not on the Citadel anymore (that we can see).

Yeah but Mordin goes out in a awesome way.
Manly tears were shed when he died.
And I like the pic by SplinterCellSF with the little baby, Liara and Sheploo.

I don't think anyone would be expecting it today, or tomorrow, or any time really soon. In your own time, and show us when you're ready? I await the tales of Shepard's adventures with eager anticipation.

Speaking of which, I should probably scoot along and get some more work done. Sadly, journal articles don't read themselves.

Ugh, don't remind me. I'm spending literally all my work time lately trying to work out whats been going wrong with my oxidative stress experiments and planning some new work to get more results (time fast ticking away until I've got to write another report for my sponsor charity). So I'm pretty far behind on my reading.<_<

I know the feeling, I'm stuck on page 2 on a review of heavy metals vs bacteria (simplified and funnified for myselfm real title is obviously very dry), have been for the past 4 hours... I'm not in such serious doodoo just yet, but my draft is due very soon, and I have to come up with something. This thread is... both my bane and my boon.

*liara's strut .gif*

Right guys, I'm offski.

If I can get away with feeling the texture of her skin, it's her head crests that shall reveal their secrets next.

What WOULDN'T I do?

But if you mean first...just got to find out the feel, scent and taste of that skin:wub:

Then maybe see if she'll give me this look:

Whatever happens after that I'd be completely contented.

Stare in shock for awhile. Then freak out, because I sure as hell aint commander shepard and when she finds out im in bed with her Liara, im screwed!

Either that or give up my obvious reckless addiction to hallucinogenic drugs. :huh:  Which I also don't remember taking...*ponders*

Oh, what would I do if I woke up next to the Blue Goddess???.........
I hope she's asleep, then I would block every door and window in the room, hide the door key, wake her up with my kisses, hug her tight and give myself to her forever......

Position her head crests so that the are all standing up, converting her from blueberry to blue starfish. I mean they were semi flexible right?
