Tried both. I even tried connecting my xbox to the internet through my computer. No matter what I do I can't seem to get a connection.


Are you using Windows, OSX, or Linux?

@Jtav  Cautious, Jtav but interested...


Is that a good thing or a bad thing.

Well there are lots of good people there that have some very interesting discussion, but it's gotten so big that bad people have manifested on either side of the spectrum.  You have the people who are just posting on there because the thread is so popular, so they spam it with random sh*t.  Then you have the people who are extremely strict about what can and can't be said on the thread, or in their image of what Tali should be, and if you say otherwise they will flame you for it.  It's stupid because it's a damn video game character and this is the internet.  What do you expect?


You lucky you have not came into our sex conversations or me talking about my wife.....:wub::wizard:


And you know, that wouldn't bother me.  Sure it's off topic from Miranda, but with a 500+ page thread, you're going to run out of ideas and have lull periods for a while.  I didn't mind the differing opinions on the Tali thread: what made me mad is I would give my opinion on Tali, and someone would take personal offense to it because I was "ruining" their view of her.  Even when I said "I'm sorry, that's just my opinion: hope everything is cool," they'd say "No, it's not cool-" and just keep attacking no matter how hard you tried to agree with them.  I just see no point in getting that pissed off over something so miniscule.

@jtav: You haven't posted anything more than excerpts right? Its nice to see another perspective on the sole survivor background.

@1490: No doubt there are a lot of people who bring up interesting discussions I just haven't found them. All I've seen is the random crap that people post. Its a sad world we live in...

Yeah, just excerpts. I've decided to split it in half and am shopping around for a beta, so part one should be available soon.

Its a good thing its a paraphrase of a line Miranda says when Shepard is basically like I want you... and Miranda is like hold on.

I wouldn't mind looking it over for you. Hell, I was looking for multiple betas too if you're up to it.

@jtav: I'm liking the excerpt. Well, I like the writing, but it's hard to imagine Miranda in a situation like that. Hard as in, emotionally hard. I don't *want* to, hah. I can see why you're having difficulty continuing it, but I appreciate the effort to take a different route with a Miranda story. It will be interesting to see her painted in a less than flattering light. I hope you'll continue posting excerpts for us!

@firecleaner What are you worried about?

@Vyndael I should warn you that the rough draft is rough. You can email me if you want. jtavington at yahoo dot com

@Meg Thanks. This whole thing has been brutal. Like I said it'd be easier to torture her or similar. I love Miranda and this hasn't been easy.

@firecleaner: Lol. There's no need for anyone to apologize. Hell, I've participated more than a few times, but it doesn't need to be discussed every 5 minutes. A bit of silliness when there's a lull in conversation is fine, but it becomes a bit monotonous to wake up every morning and read the same tasteless pants/yogurt jokes from the same people.

@ Jtav I'm not worried about anything in paticular... but I'm cautious because its not the usual Miranda story... so I have no clue were this one is headed. I'm very interested in what you do with it though! Can't wait to read it in it's totality.

@ Kalen do you have no script? What browser are you using I'm using Firefox 3.6 and I see the pictures.

@ Meg yea I think we've overdone the pants jokes....

Toombs rocketed upward and rounded on them. For the second time in five minutes, someone was pointing a gun at them. This gun, however, was like none she'd ever seen before. It was roughly the shape of a hand cannon but large, silver, and bulky. He must've lifted it from one of the scientists. "Shepard! You lying, traitorous Cerberus bastard! I thought you'd know better than to show your face here."

"I'm not working with Cerberus. I'm..." he inclined his head slightly toward Miranda. "... undercover. Working to bring Cerberus down from within."

His suit gave Toombs laugh a tinny, hollow quality. "Do you expect me to believe that?"

Shepard stepped forward. "You know me, corporal. You know what they did to us. You saw me kill Wayne. Do you really think I would work with the people who wiped out my entire squad?" He extended his hand. "I was the one who gassed these scientists. I want them dead much as you do."

Toombs didn't take it. "Then prove it. I didn't come here just shut down this facility and stop them from making these babies." He tilted his gun to the side. "That's just gravy. I finally found out who sicced the thresher maw on us in the first place. Help me find her, and I might start believing you. I want a nice long look at her corpse."

"You aren't the only one. Who are we looking for?"

Toombs spit out the words as if they were rotten varren meat. "Miranda Lawson. What happened on Akuze was her idea."


Having a little trouble with the follow through because it's so nasty. Toombs isn't lying.

I had two simultaneous thoughts about this bit of fanfic. One was serious: I can't wait to see how this pans out!

The other not quite so serious:

Some of us have tried to start a new discussion but it usually gets ignored. I wonder how many people actually read pages they missed. I've read every post since the beginning.
