OT: In the Engine Room, Your Room, Miranda's Room, the CIC, or the elevator....:whistle::whistle::whistle:


Why pick just one?

Give everyone liberty for the day - make sure the whole ship is empty - start in her room, make your way to the elevator, and finish in Shepard's room.

But don't forget to turn the gravity off first :lol:

Something dawned on me while I was working on my fic last night. (Warning: sensitive topic ahead) Miranda is just as much an abuse survivor as Jack. Jack's abuse was considerably more severe, but Miranda came in for some fairly heavy emotional abuse at the hands of her father. I think you can make a reasonable argument that her father was planning to "discard" her at the time she ran away. All things considered, I'm amazed she doesn't have more issues than she does.


Not enough specifics is known about her treatment at her father's hands to make that distinction.

Giggity.


I like the way you think, sir!

Also, 'afternoon everyone!

I would say she hides her emotional baggage, she just seems to seem to put on a facade that she is perfect to live up to her genetic tailoring... this is my hypothesis based on her actions in the early part of the game. She changes after she gets to know Shep.

She does change once she gets to know Shepard

Yea it's been said alot that Miri and Jack have more simlarities than most care to notice. Where Jack is infuriated about what happened to her, wants to kill anyone involved with it. Miranda is cool, collected and keeps to herself unless she trusts you. 2 people with almost the same problems but extremely different personalities, I kind of want someone to drop the epiphany piano on them so I can see some non violent interaction between the 2 in ME3...

Ok guys... I know this is off topic but... www.youtube.com/watch

How the hell do you get him to do that?!

And on the matter of our Miri topic... She is so beautiful!

 


talk to him after the suicide mission and there is a option to ask him about  that 


You can do it before the suicide mission as well.

Basically it is his 'Post-loyalty' chat.

The only things post suicide mission are the one liners about how awesome it was to beat the Collectors and live to tell about it and so forth and the cuddling scenes in the Captain's Quarters.

I may or may not be working on a fic where Miranda gets hit with that piano *whistles*

Yeah sure, I'll do what I can to help. I did write a few fanfics back in my mid-teens, lol. I'm not linking them though, I'd be too embarrassed to read them myself. Posted Image

My feelings exactly, Valmy.I've never sat down and made a proper fanfic, so I'm not sure how it'd turn out.

I do feel like I should write a story of how Shepard and Miranda have this adversarial rivalry and tension going over several missions...which slowly builds into a mutual professional respect and trust...underlined the whole time with an unresolved lust and sexual tension...until suddenly exploding into passionate love right when the stress of almost certain death forces them to express their true feelings....

but man I don't know if I am patient enough to build the tension right...to get people reading it desperate to see them together and sharing the tension the whole way.

Bleh.....now I've managed at last to make my edited ME1 decisions appear correctly in a new game, so I can play with a new maleShep without having played him all through ME1, and now.....I realize I really don't want to play a maleShep without romancing Miranda. It's not that I couldn't do it. I haven't even properly started, but thinking "now I'm going to romance someone else" makes me lose all motivation to play on. Such is the effect of miraculous Miranda.
