I haven't seen a Miranda discussion in a long time.

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.


I find that it has to be intresting like I was surprised that my Miri and Bastila list got alot of talk, I thought people would just ignore it.

Evening all, just popping in to say that I have my art tutor working on a commission piece with Miranda and Shepard as the main focus...he should have it done by next weekend he said, so hopefully it turns out as good as I think it will.

There is only so much one can talk about when it comes to Miranda - it's why I don't frequent here as much as I used to. It's become an OT thread with the most off-the-wall topics. Only time I really post anymore is if there is a discussion or if I'm posting a chapter of the fanfiction.

Even then - come in, post, maybe refresh a couple of times to see how it turns out... most of the time it doesn't continue, so I end up heading elsewhere.

:P Sounds like something Miranda would do...
[Tanis Venn has been left to die in a trap set by his angry wife.]Bastila Shan: I say we leave him.Tanis Venn: You know, you're pretty heartless for such a pretty lady.Bastila Shan: I take it back. Let's congratulate his wife.[/list]

@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.

Actually, I initiated a couple this morning. It's hard to keep discussions going when only one or two people are really contributing anything though. I've noticed a lot of meaningful and interesting topics have been completely lost in the waves of nonsense.

I used to do it. Not a lot of the posts are actually worth reading anymore though. There's only so much we can talk about and rehash. I feel bad for Ashley/Liara/Kaidan fans, to be honest.

We need some Miranda DLC.

And that's a bad thing - for a thread supporting Miranda, we've went from actually thoughtful discussion regarding her things to passing time by flirting with one another, talking about licking chocolate of Miri, etc. We had that in small amounts of the first thread and in the beginning of this one, but since then..

What's the point of coming to this thread when everytime I look at it - it's all about smut?

I post when I can but someone usually beats me to it. For now, I just post pictures and hope we stay on topic

You make a good point, well I believe we are at a crossroads that will decide the future of the thread, either it will get more off-topic but updated more frequently or it will be a serious discussion with alot less updates.

I'm working on one but I don't know if I should make it a novelization or just some vignettes that focus on Miranda and Shepard.

So, if we get Miranda DLC, what do you guys want to see in it? Personally, I want to see something that develops her relationship with Shep a bit more.



What I don't want to see is anything to do with her father. I'd rather that stay a mystery at least until ME3... and I'd actually be ok with it never being resolved. A confrontation where you kill him or whatever would seem way too cliche.

I couldn't agree more. When there was only a bit of it here and there, I didn't mind it. It's gotten way out of hand now though. That's why I've been going to other threads more often lately, if I visit the forum at all.

I think every squadmate will get an add-on since Bioware has said alot of the add-ons will bridge ME2 to 3. So for Miri I think one that does with dealing with her father once and for all. (remember, if you destory the base she quits Cerberus, putting her sister in danger.

I'd want to see some missions that relate to Miranda backstory between her running away and the Lazarus project.

This might be to much coding for Bioware but I'd like to some missions were Cerberus operatives try to kill you if you said screw you to TiM at the end of ME2. If you kept the base then maybe some missions working with Cerberus.

I think it'd be sweet to go rescue her sister... it's gonna be hard to keep her safe from her father now.

The sad part is... what we discuss here? Won't matter.

In an hour, two hours, etc - it'll be back to the way it was.

Honestly? If it wasn't for Meg and the fact that most of the readers of the fanfic aren't even from this thread, I would've stopped writing a long time ago. I remember when a new excerpt would be posted and you guys would love it/critique it, etc... now, when I post a new chapter - I have to quote myself five to six times in order for people to see it.

The overflow of OT in this thread is astounding.

Hey Rath, check my story and tell me what you think of how I wrote Garrus? You did a great job with him so I'd like your input. :D

Thats the thing tho, there is not alot we can discuss anymore. There is so much we can talk about Miri and its tha nks to you, Darth and others for there fan fics that keep Miri intrest here. I will admit I go off topic sometimes, simply because there is nothing to talk about Miri without rehashing it. There is sometimes stuff comes up, like last night with me comparing Bastila to Miri. People actualy talked about it and debated. It only died out like sometime in the morrining.

If this helps, I saltue you for making a good fan fic Rath :wizard:

Hopefully, when the  thread switches "hands" the people will read our posts and be more inclined to stay on-topic. Oooh please dont stop writing lol, your fic is really good and it so depressing when fan-fics arent finished....

The last line sounded selfish, do what you want but what's above is just my opinion.

EDIT: the line above sounded abrasive, it wasn't meant to be sorry...
