There's a conversation going on between a woman (Teresa I think) and an Asari at the desk at the human embassy.
The old woman seems forgetful (putting it mildly) and the Asari may/ is going to be her daughter in law.
The woman asks after a soldier and various conversations happen.

Is this going anywhere or is it simply there as background story that we're supposed to infer things from?

I feel like I should keep paying attention, but does it just loop through the conversations?

Thanks

It's just a background story. Pretty heartbreaking one.

The woman and the asari are actually hallucinations conjured up by the indoctrination. The proof of this is that no one else notices them. AT ALL.

[Dmaster292]

I'm just guessing that the upshot is the Asari is the daughter in law - and the son is prob MIA/KIA, the mother can't remember - but does it ever have some sort of definitive end? I think I've heard like 4/5 of these little excerpts, and I'd like to hear all I can of these little stories.

And the scene is repeated over and over again.

Ah thanks for the quick info!

That story tears my gorram heart out. The continuing plotlines with the background characters are a nice addition to the story.

I always thought the talk between the recruit and the sergeant at the Normandy dock was a lot sadder than with Teresa and the asari d-i-l.

Yeah, the one about the girl not wanting to fight Cerberus because her brother just joined them? Yeah, that made me think of my sister... and made me sad.

PTSD asari commando was the saddest for me. I took to hurrying past her and the doctor, I simply couldn't bear to hear any more of the story.

It was only later that I learned where she had been stationed, and the name of the human girl that was with her. And it got even sadder....

It's just another background story like the Illium Quarian and the friends-zone Turian. It's one of those little touches to show how bad the war is.

Agreed, but I thought it got even worse after reading the datapads from her brother at the Cerb base with the Hanar medi-gel.

The one with the Asari and her Turian husband just outside the Normandy dock (pre-Cerberus coup attempt) is heartbreaking, especially after you've completed the game. He practically begs her and their kids to go to Sanctuary.

All i wanted to do was scream at her not to...

I didn't know the Talavi brother was at the that lab. Just started a new playthrough so I will keep an eye out for that. And Hilary... Citadel DLC is barrels of laughs, but all these just tear my widdle hemoglobin pump right outa my chest. Every time Mordin says 'Had to be me' I finish his qoute and tear up.

Which, when you think about it, probably means he was one of the Cerberus soldiers that had to be killed for Shepard and company to accomplish the mission, and, since this is one of the first missions available, he's likely been long dead by the time that she requests her transfer.

The conversation with Private Talavi needed an interrupt:

"Don't worry about fighting Cerberus Private, you're brother is no longer with them. I totally mashed his head like an over-ripe melon with my Mantis, about two missions back."

That one really deserved a resolution, instead you walk by later and it reset and the dialogue starts all over again and you think: "Poor girl. She is in denial and the Turian doesn't have the heart to tell her..."

[Peranor]

Ehrm... Wrong thread...

Okay, am I the only one who wanted Shepard to have a reaction to the woman who was leaving her soldier husband? Because I can't imagine that Shepard, who reiterates that s/he's 'just a soldier' at several points, wouldn't have some choice words for this woman.

I find it hilarious how she still manages to ship her asari daughter to Thessia after it gets invaded and burned.

@dgcatanisiri it gets even worse as the asari starts getting cold feet when the woman wants to get in a serious relationship with her after leaving her husband. It's like "nice you make her leave her husband but now you wanna bugger off as well. Choice."

Because it's automatically morally condemnable to fall out of love with a soldier?

In any case, I imagine that the asari gets over her cold feet after a while.

This one was actually kinda creepy for me, because she looks exactly like my Colonist Shepard. Same hair, her face kinda looks the same, and she's about the same age Colonist Shepard was when Mindior was destroyed.
