If it's any consolation shin, Virmiring her works pretty well for ME2.  If you don't romance the Horizon character then you get a handshake when you meet, and having seen the Ash version of it on youtube it just seems...off.  Having Kaidan for that scene just works better.


I know, but I like Ash. Kaidan....not so much lol. 

It's alright. One last playthrough of ME1 can't hurt I guess. I'll just play through it on casual. Only takes like 8 hours anyway.

You should know that some of the sidequest results are transferred to ME2, so don't forget them.

Ugh, enough with the dirty pics. We saw how quickly that went downhill for the Talimancers. Let's just not even start it.

But did I hear that Darth has a new excerpt to be posted? Where is the Miri love, people? I thought we cared about more than just her body here? =(

It seems even the true Miri lovers are falling from the true path.  Don't worry Meg, we'll keep the true Miri love alive!

*Sits like a Buddhist Monk*

Chapter 3

It rose in front of him like a nightmare.  A monstrous metallic hulk, only half formed but still towering above him.  A terrifying visage of what could be, what would be, if the Reapers were victorious in the coming war.  The Human-Reaper may not yet be sapient but it was aware, and dangerous.  It’s unfinished forearms clawed at the platform holding Shepard, Miranda and Garrus, it’s three orange eyes glaring down at them as some sort of charge began to build up at, what would be on a human, it’s mouth.  The three ran for cover, Shepard firing off two shots from his hand cannon before flaring up a biotic field and flexing his muscles.  With a gesture of the arm he sent a ball of dark energy arcing toward the Reaper.  Shepard saw the impact as he hit cover, saw the metal around one of the eyes warp as its molecules were broken down.  A weak spot! He thought.  “Garrus, Miranda!” he shouted, “aim for the eyes, the armour seems weakest there!”

Garrus raised his rifle, sighted down the scope, and squeezed the trigger.  The Mantis bucked in his hands as a tungsten slug left the barrel, on course for the Reaper’s right eye.  He didn’t wait to see the impact; a barrage of rifle fire from a group of Collectors forced him back into cover.  “Shepard, it looks like some old friends have joined the party!” he called.  Shepard turned to face the new threat and saw one of them writhing in tortured agony, glowing from the inside: Harbinger.  “Miranda, watch the left, hit them hard!”  Again he flexed the muscles in his arms, generating a ball of dark energy that hurled an exposed drone off of the platform and down to its death.  He ducked down again just as the Harbinger-drone unleashed an explosive blast of its own.  He saw Miranda glowing brightly, surrounded with a biotic field and watched as she hurled a destructive ball of dark energy at Harbinger; watched as the energy tore it apart at a molecular level.

Shepard turned his attention back to the Reaper; heard Garrus’ rifle crack once accompanied by the thud of a Collector’s corpse hitting the platform.  He fired off half a dozen shots from his hand cannon, exhausting his last thermal clip.  “Ah to hell with it!” he said aloud.  He carefully flexed his muscles, firing up the element zero nodules in his nervous system.  He was surrounded by a storm of dark energy that he pulled together into one powerful burst as he gestured toward the Reaper and unleashed a torrent of dark energy straight at its already damaged eye.  The dark energy tore straight through the eye, impacting in the “skull” cavity behind it.  Gouts of fire exploded from every orifice in the Reaper’s head as it reeled back, the eyes went dark and the Reaper fell forward, smashing into the platform.

The platform toppled heavily to one side, throwing Miranda off balance.  Garrus managed to stay on his feet at what was now the top of the platform, but Miranda was sliding down the damaged platform towards the waiting abyss.
  Miranda! Shepard thought.  He dived down the platform after her, sliding along with his hand outstretched, desperately trying to catch her, to save her.  Miranda was getting dangerously close to the edge and Shepard couldn’t quite reach her.  They tried to grab hold of each other’s outstretched hands but couldn’t quite make it.  Miranda slid over the edge...

Shepard awoke with a start and cried out from the pain in his right side.  Miranda heard the cry of pain and woke to see Shepard clutching at his side.  “What happened?” she asked him, a look of concern on her beautifully sculpted face.  Shepard winced as she checked his dressing, “I was dreaming.  But it wasn’t a dream, it was a memory.  We were back on the Collectors’ station.  Back in the Human-Reaper chamber: fighting that thing.  I saw you start sliding down the platform and dived after you but I couldn’t reach you,” his voice had started to quiver and break, “I woke up at the moment you went over the edge.”  Miranda turned to face him, saw the barely contained anguish on his face.  She kissed him tenderly on the lips, “It’s ok Shepard, you caught me.  You didn’t let me fall, you saved me.”  She looked back at his dressing again, “Now then, you didn’t pull anything out so just lie back.”

She got up from the bed and gave him a sultry smile.  “I’m just going to grab a shower and change my clothes.  You just lie still and I’ll bring something back for you to look at.”  She flashed him a wink and walked seductively out of the Med Lab, knowing his eyes were following her out.  As she was halfway across the Mess Hall she turned and smiled, then turned back towards her own room.  Shepard sat up in his bed and looked out of the window.  The day watch was in the Mess Hall grabbing a quick breakfast before their shift started.  Crewman Hawthorne was nursing his broken arm over his breakfast; Goldstein appeared to be ribbing him about it.  Engineers Donnelly and Daniels were sat talking away with Tali.  Shepard smiled; they were no doubt talking about new ways to tinker with the Normandy’s systems.  Either that or Ken was trying to con her into a game of Skyllian Five poker.  He made a note to himself that he’d have to warn her about that at some point, hopefully before Ken had helped himself to a few of her credits at the poker table.

They’d done it.  They’d done the impossible.  They’d gone through the Omega 4 relay, taken out the Collectors’ station and made it back with no fatalities.  So why do I feel so uneasy? Shepard thought to himself.  What’s missing?  What am I missing?  He lay back down but didn’t go back to sleep.  He’d slept enough over the last couple of days, and even with the aching in his side he felt restless.  Something didn’t feel right, but he couldn’t place his finger on it.  Something felt very wrong indeed.

Top work, Darth. I like the new "torrent of dark energy" line. ;-)

I have to agree with you, Andy. On both counts. That is a very good line.

Just had to edit the buggar to reformat it properly. Even from the blogs page it doesn't seem to have the same format as here.

That is quite good, Darth! "beautifully sculpted" is perhaps a bit overdone, but the rest - very nice. I can see the scene.

"A bit overdone" is one of my trademarks.  If there isn't something in there that isn't at least a tiny bit overdone I've done something wrong :lol:
