Amidst the negativity and rumours swirling around here etc I still hold out hope that shepard and miranda can be alive/well and together at the end.   We don't know everything...I think Image IPB


They can live together, depending on the choice of ending.

That still doesn't really make it "happy" though.

Togetherness might be possible, but they've mangled her and the universe so much that I don't care.

All fiction is equally real. I doesn't matter that I don't have Strahovski or a budget. My version is just as valid. Maybe if I say it enough, I'll believe it.

Actually, your version *is* just as valid. More so, since you usually have more respect for the lore than Bioware's writers. What your version doesn't have is the weight of a large community experiencing it on its side. But...hmmm....but if we could get together with others and agree on outlines of our endings, while everyone writes about their characters and their roles within the framework of those outlines, it could acquire such weight. Hmm.... this gets me thinking...

::Story update:: Just uploaded chapter 4. It's the longest chapter so far. It isn't quite as brutal as 2 or 3, but it's equally dark. Feedback is still greatly appreciated. Note: I just uploaded it, it may take a couple of minutes for my story to update on-site. Another note: This chapter contains a bit more language than the previous 3. Just a fair warning.

Saw that ieldra - done it, wouldn't want anyone to be accidentally spoiled

Bah - mind as well look ahead to something like Grand Theft Auto V - a whacky romp and not get emotionally invested in characters again


Funny you say that cause I get more attached to the majority of Rockstar game characters than I do with most other  games. Gears on the other hand heh-heh is impossible for me to take seriously.

The level of emotional integrity in Gears has actually taken quite the step up, especially in Gears 3.

Rather, the materials written by Karen Traviss. What's-his-name that wrote the first 2 games was terrible. The only good thing he put out was Dom's shift halfway through Gears 2.

Karen's novels based on the Gears-verse are very highly reviewed and widely praised, I strongly recommend them.

Not going to delve on it longer though, veering off topic.

Karen Traviss wrote Gears-of-War lore? Interesting. I can recommend her book series "Tales of the Wess'har Wars". Good SF.

But this gets OT.....

I like how they could express Miranda's sexuality without overblowing it (Disregarding the abomination of a LotSB dossier).

That said, Miranda's romance scene is my favorite from both of the games so far.

ME1's scenes were copy/pasted, just with different characters. ME2's varied from good to creepy.

Text from the guide about Miranda: " Miranda was a romance option for male Shepard in ME2, and if Shepard romanced her, he has the option to continue the relationship. She cannot join Shepard's squad, however, so committing to her does preclude other romances, this long distance relationship can be lonely an may not feel as rewarding as others."

Also: "If Shepard commits to a relationship with Miranda and warns her about Kai Leng, it increases her chances of surviving the *SPOILER* mission. If not, she dies in Shepard's arms."


Increases her chances or surviving? So there's more we have to do to guarantee her survival. Good Lord, as if her small role in ME3 wasn't bad enough.

They aren't going to require a lot for her survival, she's a minor character.

That said, it seems FAR, FAR easier to get her killed off than it is to have her survive.

Well that's kinda sad but expected, especially if there's no scene between the two. No intimacy and others have steamy sessions in the Captain's quarters. :P

Is there any intimate scene between Miri and Shepard? I don't really care about there not being a sex scene or whatever, but there has to be something.

They have a "make out" session, IIRC.

I don't remember if there is sex or not.

It's good to know there's at least something.

IIRC, they are also interrupted halfway through. I never learned who it was or where it takes place, though.

*Shepard and Miranda are kissing*

Person: You two look like you're having fun.
