No. Not off the top of my head unfortunately. I know there was a scene about Ashley asking if Shepard remembered what it was like being dead and it moved on to ethical and religious beliefs, but that's really the only one I can remember unfortunately.

I do remember there was a confrontation with Kai Leng, he exploded the area you were in and you had to save either the VS or Liara (not both) while stuck crawling due to a piece of debris lodged in your back. Stay still and you died, but as you moved closer to your choice, the path caves away from the other and they are quickly overwhelmed. The last scene was Kai Leng escapes before you pass out and you wake up in sickbay.

There's also the prothean who was apparet of the story to begin with, an intregal part and you have to convince the VS not to kill him. But I'm not sure, I think that last one was hear-say.

I think that was planned to be on Thessia.

"Killing Liara!? My god! What a blasphemous suggestion!"

Oh, I would have let her die gladly at that point. I'm sorry, but Liara on a number of occasions has taken the spotlight that should have been reserved for the VS.

Yep, at least if romanced.

See, I don't have any issues with Liara in her particular scenes. She can keep'em - the time capsule scene etc. It just should be tagged as "romance" scene for her romance arc.

So if you have Kaidan, Ashley, Cortez, Traynor, Garrus or Tali as romance on board, they should do that particular time capsule scene - and several others too. They should be there for Shepard - and -his/her- center of life. Not Liara (if not romanced). That's my real issue here and if I could change anything, I would.

As I wrote yesterday, I would have liked Ashley to handle the time capsule. Between Liara and Ashley, Ashley is the longer-known element. Not to mention she has a bit of a hero-worship going on in the first game especially for a war hero Shepard.

She was there with the first beacon, (and the cipher and the Virmire Beacon. I took her everywhere). It would make sense that she would eventually ask Liara for help after mostly completing the damned thing, but aside from that, to me it would make more sense.

Especially since she's had more motivation to think about it. Losing the 212, losing her brother-in-law, Earth, nearly losing her life and Kaidan to name a few things.

 I would've left Liara, but I would have hesitated for sure, and then been incredibly annoyed that it had happened in the first place...
So far, nobody has died in my play through if I could save them. I hate losing team mates. Leaving Mordin was different though, it was his choice and I respected it. I just cursed the designers of the shroud by sticking the control room at the top. It was a similar situation with Legion.

I take it personally regardless of the circumstances! :D

It's been nearly six months since the end of the Reaper War, and it doesn't seem like he's recovered any. The Skipper's a survivor, like on Elysium, the first Normandy and Horizon. He's always fought his hardest, the longest. Fair beyond the limits of any mortal man. He keeps working, but the fire that once burned in his eyes, the stoicism, and the calm mask has all but evaporated. At night, I find him slumped over his desk more often than not, he has another new nightmare each night.

He insists that he's fine, but he can't hide himself anymore, not from me. The armour around his heart had been worn down. Bombarded constantly by the tolls this war had taken, by the lives lost - the friends that he had lost. He is a shell of his former self, broken. I don't know how much longer he'll last. Perhaps, I should find a way to break him from all this? Even if it's just for a few days or weeks. Find somewhere where we can just be together, away from the reminders of the hell that the galaxy will spend centuries reeling from... Some place quiet. Just the two of us.

... I think he'd like that.

Well written, Aurora :)

Normally I'd like to post something like that but I'm absolutely dry for now. Feels like "every situation got written already". It's not true, but I can't get something done now :(

I think that was planned to be on Thessia. 

Thinking about it, wasn't this where they were also planning to give the VS their return? If so, maybe the VS would've originally been part of the crew much later, which might explain her lack of dialogue and interaction (Kaidan only has a little more right?)
 
This is all assumptions though,.


Honestly, I was a little dissapointed Udina was antagonized somewhat, I always viewed him as a nice representation of your average douchebag politician. Although, it gave Ashley a chance to put all that practice to good use. Posted Image

I've let Ash shoot Udina on both playthroughs. Her reaction is somewhat heart wrenching =/

I don't know whether it is guilt or the realisation that she'd been played. Probably both actually.

LOL @ Brainheart. :lol:

I'm usually straight paragon but I took the interrupt there. She shouldn't have to shoot Udina if you can do it for her.

Because I'm feeling a lot of Liara rage at the moment....  and since Rox is the 'darker' half of my alter ego. Made sense to write this.

(Includes fem!Shep-by-other-name, Pierce. Be warned. Her true colours show through here.)

Ashley: Thessia's burning. Damn it.
Pierce: Another notch on the Reapers' metaphorical belts. Have you seen Knives since your shore party came back?
Ashley: No, I can't... *shakes her head* I don't even know what to say to him.
Pierce: Just being there for him would help immeasurably. If you have the chance, just go up there.
Ashley: You didn't see the Reapers landing, Rox. The devastation. And this was only a few Reapers.
Pierce: I can only imagine how Earth is fairing right now. Anderson is one tough bastard, a cunning strategist, but there's only so much they can do with the resources they have.
Ashley: My family managed to get out of there in time.
Pierce: So did Hannah. I'm... not sure about Kaine. He was in the second fleet. There were stragglers, but I don't know if any of them are him.
Ashley: Goddamn it I hate this war.
Pierce: Yet, I can't bring myself to feel sorry for Thessia.
Ashley: Rox!
Pierce: I am sympathetic to those who were scavenged and reanimated by the Reapers. And to Shepard for the crushing loss, but the cold harsh reality is it's the Asari's own damned fault.

Liara: How dare you!
Pierce: I'm only stating facts, T'soni.
Liara: My entire homeworld was just obliterated. And all you can do is sit around, gloating about it!
Pierce: And ours has been since the start of this war. Welcome to the club, Doctor. We have pens, novelty mugs and even a nice billboard on the Citadel.
Ashley: Roxanna, don't continue this line of thought. That's the advice of a friend.
Liara: I did not sit by and gloat while your world was lain to siege! While your government was destroyed!
Pierce: *stands up and stalks over to her.* Stow the sanctimonious bullish!t, T'soni. If I wanted it, I'd ask for a lecture from Shepard. My Government did not hide important information behind high-security barriers and religious doctrine then decide to exploit everything they learned from it and sit up in a seat of power acting so pious and moral.
Liara: Don't you dare insult my people... !
Pierce: I've scarcely begun to insult your people. You know what? It's about f*cking time the Asari were dragged down from that self-appointed position of power and morality. You're world is burning. *slow condescending clap* Welcome. to. the. f*cking. club. Enjoy your stay. Don't forget to pick up a t-shirt.
Liara: *biotics are flaring before they calm down.* You're not worth it. Neither of you. *stalks off*

Pierce: Could say double for you, toots.
Ashley: Roxanna!
Pierce: I'll be in the armoury if you want to talk. Maybe you should go check on John. I imagine he's punching through walls right now.
Ashley: That completely was uncalled for and totally unprofessional.
Pierce: In case you hadn't noticed in the last few years, I'm an unorthodox woman. And a spiteful one. Its odd to hear you defending aliens, I thought you weren't a fan.
Ashley: Doesn't mean I'd go out and say things like that! Don't you feel any pity at all?
Pierce: I'm called 'The Ruthless', Lieutenant Commander, and not without good reason. *turns to leave* Now go check on Shepard. Make sure he hasn't drnk himself to death. That's an order.



..... I'm in a foul mood for some reason... probably sleep deprivation....

I have bad images conjured up by stereotypes...
You know, the beer swilling, sweaty middle aged, red faced ones? :innocent:

This is why I hate stereotypes...they make me say bad things. :lol:

This music is driving me nuts. I'm trying to transcribe that bit I linked to yesterday. I've got the notes figured but I cannot work out where they fit into the melody! It would be much easier if Shepard and Miranda were not talking all over it! Gah! *pulls hair out* :mellow:

That was ... amazing and devastating at the same time, Aurora.

Yeah, I can see Rox doing that. She really feels as if she had bottled up a lot of anger and released it all on Liara.
Must say, Liara IS a bit too much devastated. Thessia is under siege but not lost. I doubt the Reapers can take down that whole world with a smaller fleet than the main fleet at Earth - within a matter of hours. They need MONTHS (!) to destroy a single planet, if not even more.

 Ooh, more unused files. I have an ending conversation and what sounds like ambient combat comms from a Geth Prime here! :P

It says Shepard-Commander as well! :crying:

I haven't found any Ashley related ones though.

Hey guess what, just heard from our friend Deelane! Apparently BSN won't acknowledge his copy of ME3 so he can't post here. Very sad, we miss him and he is a GREAT artist. Heaven only knows what kind of Ash art goodness we're missing out on.
BUT...he provided me the link to the original Ash script. Haven't read through it all yet, but am sure it is what we were looking for. Thanks Deelane!

There are some lines in there which didn't make it into the game.

By the way, if I remember correctly all the stuff I talked to MBE, we also found a proposal scene at some point - or something that felt like one. Also not in game.
