 Seriously, If Shep had one line, what do you think it should be?  Please feel free to respond with mutliple ideas!

As for me, right now?  I know it's so cliche, but the classic; "I.  F***ing.  Told you." would easily by my first response in reality.


For funs and giggles, maybe "And Santa's real, too, now where's the fleet?"

:wizard:

"You've got your short sad life left
That's what I'm counting on
I'll let you get right to it
Now I only want you gone"

..can't get the song out of my head >_>

Paragon Shepard: Here. Put these on.
Council: What are-
Paragon Shepard: Life suits. We're evacuating the Citadel, no time for 'I told you so'

Renegade Shepard: Here. Put these on.
Council: What are-
Renegade Shepard: Target suits. You'll make a great example for anyone who airquotes me!

"Ah yes, 'Reapers.'"

Or...

"When this is over, I want a planet."

I would love there to be a Paragon why of making the Council worry but then help them out. I always think of the scene from 'Up' where the kid asks to come in the now flying house and the old guy says no, closes the door, but then opens it and says ok.

I'd love a Paragon Shepard to do a similar thing over a holo projector.
Turian Councilor: Shepard please will you help us like you did before?
Shepard: No, you're on your own. *Turns off projector*
Turian Councilor: =0
Shepard: *Turns projector back on* Just messing with you I'm already here.

Shepard: Well aren't you gonna dismiss my claim?
Council: *sighs* very funny.....now go save the day hotshot.

*As the first reaper makes it's descent*.
Council member 1: "look...there In the sky. What could it be?"
Council member 2: "Wait, it almost looks like Sovereign..."
Council member 3: "But that's impossible, Sovereign was destroyed."
Council member 2: "Unless"...
Shepard: ''Yes, the reapers have come to destroy us all! If only someone had warned you about them we might have....Oh wait, never mind. How many times will I have to save your asses before you'll finally listen to me!"
GRABS ASSULT RIFLE FROM GUARD AND RUNS OUT THE DOOR.
As Shepard leaves*
Shepard: "Lets see if I can go three for three!"

Personally, I'd like to see them trying to preside over the "Arrival" Case, hear the metaphorical s*** hit the fan, then scream out Shepard's name in unison.... only to look and see he/she is playing a gameboy of all things.

Council Court: Shepard!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Shepard:.........What?

Even though the first part isn't remotely possible, I want an extended edition!
Council Court: Th-the Reapers!!! THEY'RE HERE!!!
Shepard: Hold on a sec. These antiques don't save fast.

"Evacuating might be a good idea, right about now."

"Errr. About that back pay I'm owed for all that work as a SPECTRE, just forget about it. We're good."

"Well, what do you know-- They DO exist!"

"I wonder if they're hiring. I hear they have a comprehensive mental health plan."

"Great. Why did it have to be Reapers....?" (Said like Indiana Jones' line in Raiders of the Lost Ark)

To all the non believers who listened to the council: "They must be here for the sheep." (Double entendre, one for hellboy, another about how the people follow the council blindly.)

Now? Now you want my help? Fine. I'll help you. I'll help you because its my job. I'll help you because it will save the lives of people who don't deserve to die for your arrogance. But mostly, I'll help you because it's the right thing to do. But when this is over, I'm going to tell everyone that I warned you, that you had three years to prepare, and that you did nothing. And when they come, howling for your blood, I'm going to do exactly what you did. Nothing.


This.

Edit: Oooo, just saw this one. I like it too.

"Please, proceed with the discussion regarding the existence of Reapers with Sovereign here. Be quick, both you and it are scheduled to be fireworks in tonight's show."

Edit: I suppose I 'slightly' misread the title.

Possibly because I've been thinking of that line for quite a while anyways.

So, for the this actual situation we are talking about:

"Please, have a moment to discuss with these guys here. I'm sure they'll delight the chance to prove their existence."

Edit2: Ahh, maybe:

"Reapers? Coming to kill you? Don't be silly, you have been way too useful for them."

This one is awesome; one of my very favorites. Good for a Renegade/Paragade/Renegon.

[quote]Sister Helen wrote...

Someone posted earlier about being pleasant, then destroying the council politically at a later point.

I
really like the idea of using the Shadowbroker to destroy the Council
politically. I'm not sure it can be done (the salarian councilor's
lifespan is so short, it would probably just affect his family's
breeding negotiations and not him, personally... And the asarian would
probably outlive her critics.... The taurian would probably have the
most embarrassment to live down, of the three.)

Instead of Udina or Anderson for Council, my Shep would support Wrex.[/quote] I liked that Shadowbroker idea as well. I wouldn't go after the Salarian councilor, though--he has less life experience to draw from than almost all other species, and he was the least bastardy. I can give him the benefit of the doubt that he mostly learned how to conduct his business from the other two.

Lecturing the council alienates them and wastes time.[/quote] It's not a "personal slight" that the Council has committed--it's a very impersonal, objective atrocity that the Council has perpetuated in having their heads buried in the sand all this time. They may, after all, be responsible for the extinction of all advanced organic life, since they alone had the power to investigate Shepard's claims.

As to lecturing the Council "alienating them"--I am as worried about alienating them as I'm worried about accidentally causing the extinction of the dinosaurs. Even if it were possible, it wouldn't be relevant.

It's not even just their actions. It's their smug attitude; their refusal to even let you investigate. They always knew better, didn't they? As a student of the social sciences, there's little that repulses me more than the kind of arrogance which says, "I prefer to believe the universe is as I've decided it is, I like it and it makes me feel safe, so I'll make sure no one else can examine other possibilities." And the price for their refusal to even consider what you have been continually telling them is a threat? Salarian lives. Asari lives. Turian lives. Human lives. Krogan lives. Entire worlds. That is worse than an outrage, it is an atrocity, and an at least partially preventable one.

The Council has been useless for three ****ing years. If they
are not committed to finally doing their jobs after witnessing the Reapers destroying homeworlds
everywhere, knowing they could've done something to at least improve our chances and save vast numbers of lives, to the point where
Shepard venting an unbeLIEVably deserved "I told you so" can alienate them enough to cause even the slightest hesitation to do anything that needs to be done, then any galaxy which would allow them another INSTANT in their respective positions is frankly too damned dumb to continue existing.

If they survive and are not found to have been indoctrinated all along, Velarn and the asari should arguably be put on trial for criminal negligence. They had ample warning and the testimony of one of their own Spectres years before this happened. They actively hindered Shepard's attempts to prevent these disasters and never helped unless the evidence was actively stabbing them in the face at the time. Imagine how different things could have been if the Council had been composed of people like Matriarch Aethyta and Anderson with an actual modicum of wisdom in their respective personalities.

As an aside, wouldn't it be awesome if the asari got scared enough to choose an unconventional thinker like Aethyta for their replacement?  Working with her would be a dream come true.

[quote]Arcian wrote...

"You did what you did for what you
believed were the best of reasons. No one, even from the lowest worker
to the rulers of galactic civilization, is exempt from making mistakes.
Make up for this mistake by believing me now."[/quote] And thus you give them an easy out, allowing them to never, ever face responsibility for their actions like adults. I honestly can't hear Shepard saying that. Not even as a Paragon.

If you must be civil to the smug, pompous, arrogant, backstabbing politicians who only accidentally didn't doom the galaxy completely, then I think this is more characteristic of post-ME1-Shepard:

"You dismissed my claims that Saren was guilty as a human smear campaign. You dismissed my contact with Prothean technology as a silly dream. You dismissed my claim that Sovereign was more than a warship as gullibility. You dismissed my warning that the Reapers were coming as mere paranoia. Skepticism would have been understandable--but this could not be called skepticism. You chose blindness, chose to refuse to even look at the signs instead of deferring to the scientific method and allowing me to prove myself right or wrong. It almost killed you once, and many humans died defending you. Many more, of every species, will die now defending the galaxy you refused to prepare for war.

"It didn't have to be like this.

"If you are not destroyed in the bombardment, and you can somehow find a way to live with yourselves despite the memory of the many chances you had to let me do the job you appointed me to, but instead tied my hands and left me hanging out to dry, then you had best throw those towering egos out the window once and for all, and commit yourselves to the only thing that can possibly redeem the deaths we could have prevented together--throwing every resource you have at saving what remains."

Even Paragon Shepard doesn't let culpable parties off the hook. Take a look at Tali's trial if you need an example. Shepard's not afraid to call anyone on their bs, and the Council must not be an exception.

Too many people would throw their tv or monitor out the window. Those things are expensive, you know. :)
