I have a lot of catch/read up to do after my comic con, therefore sorry if it has been covered since.

I went to the Bioware HQ on Thursday, got an inflatable omniblade, tattoo sticker, dogtags and was one of the first 50 or so to play the Demo.

While waiting to play the demo, a couple of us were able to question Casey and other guys on all things Mass Effect.

I asked Casey if Yvonne Strahovski would be voicing/facing Miranda Lawson again and he said yes, she'll be back.

There were about a handful of Miranda fanart submissions: here are my 2 faves that were on display.

Patryk Olejniczak

If the info about Yvonne is true, that is a relief lol

Here's a vaguely related thought - what do people think Miranda wears when she goes to bed (alone)? Is she an au naturelle kinda woman, t-shirt & boxers or something else entirely?

As I've said before, she probably wears nothing underneath an expensive silk nightie...but after she starts sleeping with Shep, she'd probably start stealing his/her shirts.

Katie Shepard: Hey Miri, have you seen the shirt of my dress uniform?
Miranda *feels guilty and slinks deeper into the covers*: Um...no I haven't...
Katie *suspicious*: Right...*pulls the blanket off to reveal Miri in aforementioned shirt* Uh-huh. Haven't seen it huh?
Miranda: ...I love you Katie?
Katie: *grunts*

Or just to sate my perverted mind...she always sleeps naked.

I'm also talking of expensive and elegant things, not classic babydolls or lingerie.

I do think the more expensive and luxurious the better would be her taste in most things: shoes, clothes, jewellery, wine, cosmetics, lovers... 

Agreed! As it stands, Katie Shepard's freaking out about how fast their funds are depleting thanks to Miri's high maintenance. But Miranda always reminds her that she's worth the creds spent.

*Katie and Miri getting frisky*

Katie *mumbling*: Worth it...so worth it...

That is so true. Annoyingly so in fact. The fairer sex always resorts to theft of shirts in the morning. It's as if women are biologically conditioned to be thieves at the time!

HEY! I am NOT a post-coital thief of shirts!

[MsSihaKatieKrios]

Btw, Miri's favourite song is pretty soothing. And she demands that you listen to it with her.

Really? I stand corrected then, not all women do resort to this behaviour then. I think you are definitely the paragon of the fairer sex then and that all should follow your lead... it would save me and other people money at the least!

Also, I'm only half serious!

Fun fact: Here in Spanish speaking cultures, we use our mother's last name as our second last name. Mine is Miranda.

I know lol! But in all honesty...when I don't feel like lying there completely naked, I do steal my boyfriend's shirts. I'm a paragade in that way then.

So... you are a thief!

Some don't even stop at just shirts though either, some take boxers too! So I have to open up my drawers to put on a clean new shirt and boxers which sort of defeats the purpose when I'm just going to have a shower soon anyway!

Well, I don't have to put clothes on first of course, but still, it's just simple courtesy really! What if it's cold!

Hey guys, it looks as though we are getting off topic, please get off of the "Miranda in lingerie/stealing of shirts/etc. And get back on to "Supporting Miranda", as the title of the thread suggests, please and thank you.

[Chrislo1990]

Yes I 100% agree with you Volandrius! Please let's back on track here guys

[Repearized Miranda]

^ It may be time to ake a break from this thread (or all likewise) because what's there to discuss what hasn't already been. As stated there's about seven months left. Let's not void ourselves of excitment before release. An observation only.

Having said this, carry on.

"We will definitely talk more about some of the characters before release but will save a lot of the discovery for the game."

This is mostly for those who were wondering if any such information about Miranda would be revealed at some point (*pokes Iedra2* )...question is will that include Miranda?

Oh, oh....things are heating up.

You asked if you laid it on too thick. Not exactly, but it would have been better had this happened earlier. I find it hard to imagine how that can be patched up in the time remaining. If Miranda changes her mind too fast, that will be very unconvincing. Also, Shepard comes across as self-righteous here - I think he should concede some of her points and they should meet somewhere in the middle in the end. Otherwise Miranda would be diminished and relegated to the role of a follower. You know what I think about that.

[Arijharn]

I do find it awesome that it was Legion who essentially let the cat out of the bag, all very innocent like. Quite funny imo

Arguements aren't really rational. Shepard came off as self-righteous to defend his opinion, but Miranda has already dimishished herself as the role of a follower (Cerberus) to defend hers. See what I did there? It's interesting how people say she's so self-confident and independent. And she is... until a point. Can you really imagine her saying 'no' to TIM prior to ME 2 (Oriana notwithstanding)? I don't. Last I checked, that makes her a follower anyway.

Making up is about concessions. And sometimes more physical pursuits, hopefully easing jtav's problems.(Probably not)

Don't forget about Overlord. People can change quickly enough if given the metaphorical slap in the face.

Edit: Does this count as Miranda support/discussion? Or should I wonder how she dresses at night?

I am interested to see how you resolve Overlord, I'm going to assume that Shephard will put him in the care of the Academy just because of the way he's handled himself so far.

As much as I think Dr. Archer is a jerk, I think he does have a point when he says that the project has a strong potential to save a million mothers mourning a million sons, and there's no guarantee that the Geth wont be a threat at a later date too. Still, merely a punch to the face is probably not enough to persuade Dr. Archer to keep on the straight(er) and narrow.

[LuxDragon]

Having seen Legion in the ME 3 demos, I'm actually somewhat convinced that the geth won't attack anyone unless attacked first.

You have a point. I guess the point I was trying to make is that if she changes her mind too fast for too little reason, her loyalty would become meaningless. What do you think would make her reconsider that fast? I don't see Overlord doing it. Not on its own. Perhaps add some evidence that Teltin was sanctioned by TIM. I think nothing less will suffice. 

Making up is about concessions. And sometimes more physical pursuits, hopefully easing jtav's problems.(Probably not)

More physical pursuits? If you're thinking about sex, I don't think Miranda's attraction to Shepard should overshadow her value system and her thoughts about Cerberus. That's just cheesy. I ask: what would it say about Miranda if she disregarded the bigger issues (which, I mind remind you, are the Reapers and humanity's place in the galaxy) for her attraction to Shepard?

Don't forget about Overlord. People can change quickly enough if given the metaphorical slap in the face.

The problem is that it's too easy to justify Overlord (see Arijharn's post above). Likely, after meeting Legion, Miranda would agree it is no longer necessary, but I can't see her loyalty to Cerberus being seriously challenged by it.

Well, hopefully, the next few chapters might ease your mind. Or it won't. I'll try my best.

I bet the decision that strongly decides what to do at the end of Overlord is the actual ending of the DLC. I think it was obvious that the intended effect was to shock you into making one of two decisions.

You can't even fault the underlying theory really about Overlord either, since a paragon shephard does nearly the same thing when he re-writes the geth*

I don't think Miranda nor Shephard should *change*, but I think they should start respecting each other's position. I would have thought (and I told you as much in the PM's I think) that Shephard should probably be a little bit more careful when throwing stones in glass houses at worst, and at best have a bit of a more open minded philosophy since he's undoubtedly been called to commit many assassinations as an Infiltrator.

Or is Shephard's whole beef with them (Cerberus) is that it isn't that they do bad things because they're 'bad', but that they do bad things without apparently any oversight?

*not really; Paragon's literally re-write the Geth, explicitly robbing them of their 'free-will', whereas Overlord makes do with the Geth's own religious impulses to give them a messianic figure to follow.
