lol. So cruel.

You guys should tweet #FindYourOwnDatAss to Kaiden fans. [smilie]http://social.bioware.com/images/forum/emoticons/tongue.png[/smilie]

I always thought Strahovski should have voiced both roles and used her American accent for Oriana.

[hot_heart]

I reckon she could've done an Australian accent but with a more youthful, innocent tone, no problem.

Hmm we should have had that #Find copyrighted to begin with. Anyway, it's funny how they were like we'll help you trend #FindMiranda on the condition that they can use #Find for other LIs. I don't mind sharing it, really no biggie... like kookie says we get the impact cause it's part of her dialogue.

I suggest when we tweet we'll say stuff like:

Shepard keeps his promises and he will #FindMiranda. Let's go @Bioware @masseffect

EDIT: So that people will know why it's called #FindMiranda.

Still, Kaidan fans seem to be more loud right now and they'll take all the credit. Still, I like your idea, yesikareyes. :happy:

We should also tweet Jessica Merizan. I know she's not part of the development team, but she seems to be a Miranda fan, maybe she could give a good word on our cause as long as we're respectful, I've seen her angry at a few tweets so it's best to remain civil, as hard as that can be.

Agreed, sounds good. And yeah, it's just extra noise for Miranda, really

Thanks!  Yes, Kaidan fans are competetive.  

Yeah, I saw Merizan's "angry" tweets. Just don't mention anything about retake or hold the line and you'll be fine. Also, we can't tweet at her all at the same time because she doesn't like it spamming her feed so maybe we can just do it like thrice a day... preferrably when she is tweeting so she can see. Lastly, we can't say the exact same phrases cause that's spamming so we'll have to be creative and diverse but with a hashtag that unifies us  This also applies for our BioWare staff as well.

We just need to be mindful of these stuff, but other than that... yes we definitely should.

I just tried it with Jessica and she had no idea what I was talking about.

I saw that and she said Miranda died. I tweeted her too but had no more space for the hashtag!

LoL, well, the "find me" thing on its own is a bit... non-obvious, actually. The main tweet should probably reference Miranda DLC directly, tbh

enayasoul:She just looks at him and doesn't say a word. It's like wtf moment... now you will? And she had tears in her eyes at this scene.

[jtav]

Another teaser. Can you spot the comics reference?

[quote]"I believe organics consider it impolite to read private correspondence." EDI walked through the door. She wore a black jumpsuit not dissimilar to Miranda's own. "I have modified my cyber security systems, and I judged Shepard’s communications to be a priority. Wisely."

Miranda groaned. "Why are you here, EDI? You could have thrown me out of the system without coming all the way down here." And I need to upgrade my omni-tool, obviously.

"I have a question for you, and it seemed more likely that you would answer if I could promise not to reveal your activities to Shepard in return."

"The AI has learned how to blackmail. Great."

"Blackmail implies a desire to disclose the information if you do not comply. This is a favor for a favor."

Miranda’s eyebrows went up. "Fine. What do you want to know?" Probably an explanation of human mating behavior or somesuch. Miranda would blather something, and they would both be on their way.

"I was originally created to assist Alliance soldiers in training exercises. My current incarnation was designed for cyber warfare. And yet, I have grown beyond that. It would be a waste of my processing power to devote myself solely to warfare, despite it being the purpose I was created for. You are unique among organics for being created for a purpose. And yet, you rejected that purpose. How did you self-modify to create a new one?"

It took Miranda a moment to process what EDI had said. "You’re asking how I came to join Cerberus?"

"Yes."

"My father was… not a kind man." Her hand went automatically to her throat and skimmed across the leather of her choker. "I'd prefer not to discuss the details. When I was old enough, I left. I spent a year on Omega as a thief and a hacker. But when I heard about Oriana, I couldn't let her stay with him, and I knew I lacked resources to relocate in protect her. So I offered my services to Cerberus. And I stayed with them until they started indoctrinating people."

EDI closed her eyes halfway. If she were human, Miranda would have said she was peering at her. "But why Cerberus? There are any number of mercenary groups that would have offered protection for your sister and that operate legally in Council space. Why allow yourself to be branded a terrorist?"

"Because there's no challenge in mercenary work. I'm smarter, faster, and stronger than baseline humans. It's not arrogance, just a fact. I have an obligation to use those gifts to benefit humanity. And Cerberus let me do that. Anything I asked for—funding, personnel, equipment—was mine. They didn't smother me with pointless red tape, and they gave me far more autonomy than my father ever had. I conquered death. The Alliance would never have allowed me to do that. And, as I grew older, I saw the necessity of humanity having a black ops organization. The Council makes the rules, and those rules exist to keep the Council races on top. And they all had their ways of cheating when it suits them. Cerberus was our way, whether the Alliance wanted to believe it or not. We were supposed to be humanity's strongest advocates. That's what I'm still trying to be."

"It is… curious that you identify so strongly with humanity when Henry Lawson didn't consider his offspring truly human. It would have been easy to adopt his ideology."

Familiar anger welled up inside Miranda, as she couldn't quite keep the contempt from her voice. "Ah, yes. ****** sapiens superior. I was supposed to be the first of a new breed of humanity, a new ruling dynasty that would replace baseline humans the way we replaced ****** erectus. That sort of nonsense should have died out two-and-a-half centuries ago." But it hadn't quite died out. Henry had believed in it so strongly that he had insured Miranda would never be able to reproduce without using the process he had created so her improvements wouldn't be diluted in future generations. "I'm human. And I'll protect humanity until my dying breath."

"You adopted humanity as your peer group. As I adopted Jeff and the crew."

No. Mostly as a catalyst for character growth. And what I suggested about Sanctuary was so it could actually do its job of horrifying the player.

If they were going to make drastic changes I'd just cut Sanctuary and improve upon Cronos. Have Miranda find a lead on TIM's location. What would have been neat is Shepard and Miranda walking into TIM's office expecting him to be there only for Henry Lawson to be sitting in the chair.

Yes, but we only got one tweet from them so far 

[Ares91]

Oh. Well then! If their gonna back out on their side of the deal. We must declare war on the Kaidens!

[jtav]

This is the part where I should be glad my current WIP isn't Kaidan/Miranda, isn't it?

Please don't.

Make love (w/ Miranda?) lol, not war.

[Ares91]

Awe why? I had just contacted Squirrel high command. We were gonna get Acorn bombers, Walnut tanks, peanut troops the whole shabang.

[hot_heart]

OK, so I finally got chapter six completed. Apologies that I keep linking to a file to download each time. I do intend to put it on fanfiction.net when it's complete, but right now I'm spending a lot of time tweaking it here and there since I've never done something like this before.

Second half was definitely the toughest as I wasn't sure how naturally it flowed, and whether it was too vague while supplying enough background. I'm flying by the seat of my pants, so I'll let you guys help me out there!

This is going to sound really nitpicky, and I'm not sure if the game actually supports it, but I always figured EDI
would not end sentences with a preposition.

Rest of it looks really good though. Although, not sure about the Henry Lawson 'ideology' stuff since he had supported Cerberus before Miranda joined.

It might be clichéd and predictable, but it would be a little more interesting than what we currently get.
