She's only "normal" in comparison to the other romances. Hers isn't really that normal.

Most chicks wouldn't take you down to the engine room, you know. That's not normal. Though I probably would. Hmm... yeah, no, I'd do it.


First thought that went into my mind when the screen blacked out was... "I really hope they put down a towel or something."

Shepherd lying on his back on a corrugated metal engine deck? Somebody's not going to be walking straight for a while.

At last. Someone else who thinks the engine room might not be a good place for sex because of the discomfort. I've always said this, but nobody seemed to see it the same way.... which I consider seriously weird. I mean, just imagine being in Shepard's place in that scene.

A question...

What exactly was Miranda's relationship with Niket?


You can ask her about it after her loyalty mission.  She goes on about how he made her feel comfortable. Total friend zone material, borderline brotherly. She doesn't say it, but he was no doubt the closest thing she had to family prior to Oriana.

Also Miranda has an Australian accent yet Niket doesn't. We know Miranda grew up (or was at least born) on Earth, so how can this be explained?

For all we know, she fakes the accent. ;)


Maybe Niket was born somewhere elseÉ

Oh, this thought just made me laugh. Yeah, I'm sure it was an absolute nightmare for people working under her. Ah, why does that make me think of her fondly? Weird.

Needless to say, I'm sure everyone on that station went without casual sex for those two years. You can begin to see Wilson's frustrations.


This is why I don't think Wilson was part of a conspiracy. Long story short, Wilson was hot for teacher. Wilson couldn't get any. Wilson couldn't get any for TWO YEARS. Wilson lost his mind and pulled the fire alarm. Miranda finally decided to show mercy and put Wilson out of his misery. The end. 

Why does that remind me of that Templar in DAO - Cullen, wasn't that his name - if you played as a female mage. He went totally bonkers over his "forbidden" attraction. Ah, sexually frustrated priests, monks, templars and suchlike, they always have it coming.

Yes, recreational. Sex is a fun, healthy thing for her. She enjoys it. But she is discriminating. "Nothing but the best." But considering that she seems to guard her heart closely, I don't think most of the relationsgips were that serious. Though some may have been. I like to think Shep isn't the first person she's loved romantically.

I agree with that. As for the slightly kinky bits, I do definitely not agree. Mostly because I dislike it. Won't have a character I like be "tainted" like that.

Not realy, she is just hjigh maintance. Shepard is lucky he can have a girl like Miri.


I don't think Miranda would be high maintenance at all. If anything, she's low maintenance. She's self-reliant, has a well-paying job (presumably), she's got her own separate life so if you don't call she's unlikely to worry too much about it, and if it ever turns out the two of you don't work well, she'll make a clean break and go on with her life.

That's her appeal, IMO. If you're fortunate enough to ever be in a real relationship with her, she doesn't NEED you, she WANTS you. She'll be straight forward with you and easy to understand. She doesn't strike me as the type to want to play head games, to string you along, or pretend everything is okay when it's not.

QFT.

"High maintenance" is something I'd never have thought of. But she's not one to back off easily. Expect some epic fights if the relationship goes on.

The setting for Miranda's romance scene was... an interesting choice by the writers. Miranda says she'll only settle for the best, so she forgoes the captain's quarters with its b*tching sound system, room length aquarium, and king sized bed and instead goes for the dirty engine room floor?

Um.... maybe it's always been something she's fantasized about but doesn't Shepherd have a say in any of this?

Wasn't one of the rumours about why she chose there was due to the core having some effect on people (specially biotics)

An ad-hoc justification if you ask me, just the same as the rumour about the engine's vibrations having some effect. Doesn't change that I almost feel the pain in my back whenever I watch that scene. You know, they could've changed the floor texture just for that scene, couldn't they?

I actually thought Miranda's romance scene would take place in her room. It's got those big windows looking out into space. Could have been very romantic.

The thing that makes it all a bit silly is surely if she believes the engine room is "the best" place for a bit of fun, then she wouldn't be bothered about being invited to Shep's room post-suicide mission.



Speaking of which, going on the possibility of all LIs being in ME3, I reckon that the LI will be in the Captains Quarters. Seems odd that for each of the levels of the lift, it lists what team members are there even in the captains quarters. That to me is an indication that has been left as it is for ME3 to save them having to modify it for that game.



Can be easily implemented as they just basically have it that the 'invite <insert character>' option is no longer needed and the LI is sat in that same spot they are post-suicide mission.



Just a theory I have anyway.



One thing I really do hope though is that old LIs (ME or ME2) don't have to wait until the final mission to get some loving. To me that seems a bit silly.



I can understand them keeping it for people wanting new LIs in ME3, but old ones it makes no sense for them to do that.

I doubt we'll see any mid-mission sex in ME3. Character interactions in ME1 and ME2 have generally always served the role of character or plot development. ME sex scenes seem to serve as a denouement for Shepherd's relationship with an LI in that particular game. I have a feeling they'll keep that convention in ME3, even if ME1/ME2 LIs return as squadmates.

We seem to think alike a lot. That's what I said a some time ago when the question of a better location came up.

Ok I probably didn't make myself clear, am not talking about sex, just some potential different conversations/lovey dovey fun if they have the LIs as squadmates on the ship.

The other key thing is that realistically the 'pre-final mission love scene' should be different for ME/ME2 LIs in comparison to 'new' ME3 LIs to show the difference in length of being an LI.

Am not saying they should concentrate on just LI stuff, just that imho there has to be a difference with this being the last of the trilogy.

That would be annoying. Miranda has her own work, so why would she always wait in the Captain's quarters. I definitely don't want that. Better to leave the "invite" option in.

One thing I really do hope though is that old LIs (ME or ME2) don't have to wait until the final mission to get some loving. To me that seems a bit silly.

They could do it like in DAO. You had a little repeatable love scene. Nothing complex, really, and I didn't use it all that often, but it helped immensely to make you feel you were in an ongoing relationship.

I agree to some extent but it just seems weird that they put the words 'Team Members' on the Captain's Quarters level if they weren't going to have it so at some point someone is there. Unless they just got lazy when writing out those screens and forgot to remove it for that level (like they forgot to add Kasumi to the original list for the 'Crew's quarters' level (on my kasumi and zaeed only survive playthrough for that level it states 'None' underneath the Team Members line but then under None states Kasumi).

Have you been inspired by my mind-meld fanfic or is your space bar broken? :lol:

Anyway, I have always said Miranda is very hard to resist. Just go with the flow. It won't have any bad effects. Promise :innocent:
