I'd like to bring up that Miranda is Mitochondrial Eve 2.0. She should be important to ME by this virtue alone.


I doubt they've forgotten that. "The future of humanity, as evidenced by the perfect Miss Lawson."


I hope so. If it's somehow in the epilogue... let's say I'll forgive them for some of the character's bastardization.

Or maybe the Las Plagas.

The G-Virus is my favorite fictional mutagen, but that's not my point. All I'm saying is that Miranda's predicament is shared by super mutants everywhere.  It would be interesting if you could use her sterility to talk your way out of a boss battle with her dad.


What a monumental buzz kill.

Honestly the infertility bit is pretty much pointless unless she is deadset on having a 'natural' child. We have surrogates today, heck she was made from a test tube from just ONE man.

It is just an annoying not well thought out ploy to get Shepard to feel sorry for her.

Couldn't she just take her DNA and do the same thing her father did? Or hell, combine her and Shepard's? Tadaa! Lawson-Shepard baby without any nasty side effects.


I don't think it's that simple.

Speaking of Morrigan, I think her romance is rather similar to Miranda's in the way that she seems like an annoying err... [insert bad word here] but turns into the sweetest girl once you bother to romance her. Of course some people don't romance her, never see that side and simply hate her.

That was what I was saying. Technology circumvents her 'problem' and it is just a shallow ploy to give her a flaw or create sympathy for her. I meant 'natural' in the form of her doing it the old fasion way.

Especially since her father wouldn't be the type to be moved to sympathy over his daughter's infertility.

Obviously, but it's possible, and I doubt either Miri or Shepard are poor at this point in the series. :P

Maybe they're a bit similar, but I don't remember Miranda trying to get me to help her create a monster baby.

You mean aside from the excruciating pain she'd go through during the birth?

Or genetic defects the child may have (As unlikely as it is, Miranda and Shepard are both specifically tailored to not harbor and "downsides")

Shepard is dirt poor. Why do you think he keeps asking for discounts?

Well, that was her plan, but it goes wrong when she genuinly falls in love with you.
Anyway, let's at least try to stay on topic. :P

Are you sick because she's pregnant?

Off topic: I always thought she was flipping someone the bird at first, now I see that isn't the case. What is she pointing to/for?

Maybe your Shepard. My Shepard has amassed a sizable fortune...enough to let Dr. Chakwas buy a 50K ton platinum monument to herself.

I think Oriana would really weird for Shepard to ship. Even if he was never interested in Miranda at all. Shepard is what 31 and Oriana is 18? Not to mention the awkwardness of knowing Miranda is spying on your every move.


In jtav's universe the spying would be...interesting.


Why so?

Same here, it came from a magical outside source, someone by the name of "Editor"
Editor always goes out of his way to help Shepard.
 He gifts him minerals because he pities Shepard for having to mine planets and gives him credits because Shepard never has enough to save the galaxy.

So you bought an "upgrade" that just lets people walk in, get treated, then leave? Poor Dr. Chakwas is already lonely enough, her patients either die, or leave after being treated, and now you're stripping away her interaction with them. 

You monster.

I prefer the T-Virus myself.

Or maybe the Las Plagas.

I was going to mention the "Corfu Virus" (from "Year Zero" by Jeff Long) myself, but then realized that you were talking about forced evolutionary viruses. Corfu just straight up kills, but only after making you blind and insane first.
