I found this artwork and thought to myself it would be totaly awesome to have Liara as a reflection on or outside the glass in it, tried asking the artist, not gotten a reply other then she wasn't sure of what I was asking her to do since english isn't her native language

Hmmm idk, I’m getting really sick of the fem Shepard.

Well, not really found any Manshep artwork that look all that good for something along this line. contemplative, thinking about the love of your life, a soft moment. I'll keep looking.

Also there is the fact that that shot is before they even meet. Unless it on the ship later… or the Normandy 2

I just added Liara on my squad selection of ME2 :

I do get what you mean though, Shepard's brain chemistry was probably changed with all that happened to her.
I wonder if they will ever go into detail with it, I mean, she even knows the Prothean language now. Those types of things don't just happen without some sort of major neurological changes.

Shepard can interface with Prothean psionic technology now too, that has to be pretty major.  The asari and rachni are the only races with natural abilities like that, but the closest technology any current race has would be the biotic implants and amps.  And those are really just translating neural impulses into mass effect field manipulating actions. 
The Protheans though had technology that could transfer information, and Vigil tells you that their interstellar communications were based on those beacons.  And they had implants that could record a being's experiences from what you see when you take the Consort's pendant to that disco orb on Eletania.
If any thought went into the ability for Shepard to choose Reave and Dominate as bonus powers then that would indicate something is really weird with Shepard's brain and nervous system too.  Those powers aren't really biotic powers, as in manipulating gravity, they're specialized variations of asari melding and should be exclusive to asari.
Arguably, something weird with Shepard would have to be the case anyway for Project Lazarus to have even brought back anything but a twitching vegetable.

Did you notice the perplexed look Shiala has on her face just after giving Shepard the cipher? she saw more then just giving it, imho

She sees more then she gave

Just catching up... I think she winces because it was difficult to pass along the cipher to Shepard. Kind of like how Liara comments that the commander is "remarkably strong willed" which makes the joining process more difficult for the asari.

Lol nice. Though if it was me I think I would want to see my Liara in some good armor if she was going to be fighting by my side. I wouldn’t want to see her get ripped to shreds….

[kaskouka]

U still can cycle her appearance

Her first mission will be to follow my Shep in Captain's Quarter, so her current outfit will just be fine

Yeah... last time around, to keep her safe, I actually got her Colossus X armor before my Shep.  As a matter of fact, that playthrough, my PC didn't even get X armor, making do with Colossus IX medium armor the whole time.

That'd be neat, wouldn't it?  She shows up in one of the prime hardsuits available, either the Predator or the Colossus?  She should be able to afford Kassa and Armax with her probable income.

I think ME2 establishes as scientific fact that for women protection in combat, from toxic environments, and the perils of vacuum can be expressed by the sum total of their exposed cleaveage and the height of the heels.
Jack has no heels, so she has to expose more of her cleaveage to get the necessary protection.
Samara and Miranda both sensibly wear six inch heels into combat, so they can get by with only exposing most of their breasts.
Femshep seems to be quite mad, and not only insists on wearing combat boots instead of high heels, but bulky armor over her entire torso.  She even clings to the notion that one must wear a helmet in order to breath or avoid blindness in some environments.

Hawt, nude asexual Canadians...road trip! I hope they look like Asari.

[Crimmsonwind]

When I went to Canada, all I saw were big-ass spiders and water. I must have missed all the good stuff T_T

Would make sense for Project Lazarus to involve the use of some possibly morally questionable methods to bring Shepard back.
I wonder if Liara will have anything to do with getting Shepard's nervous systems started again, do Asari even have control over other beings to that great of an extent? They seem to be able to have control to the extent of highly advanced Biofeedback for the most part. I would assume part of how they look at some of the genetic makeup of other species might be through "reading" their specific brainwaves and the children that are created after are based on the variances of brainwaves in the "father" species. Where the variances will serve as the differences in genetic makeup.
Of course that is just a theory, there could be an entirely different way they gather the genetic information to create children.
The unanswered questions involving the changes Shepard has gone through could make for some interesting moments in ME3.

Shepard has to be either immune or really resistant to Reaper indoctrination by this point.  Considering all the times you've been exposed to it.  Even those Dragon's Teeth are dangerous to anywhere near, they emit an indoctrination field. Thankfully their transformation nanotech requires continued proximity to work.
 
I always thought that Liara should have been involved in any plan to reanimate Shepard.  She's the only one who is always alive and who has been in Shepard's head.  So she could like error check Shepard during the reanimation process or even patch parts together.  Asari can transfer information and emotion, so it seems like they could effectively "rewrite" or influence people.  Like Morinth does pretty much when she twists people around.  She's probably specialized in it, but it seems like all asari are probably naturally projecting empaths that influence people around them a bit to regard them positively.  They don't even need to do it overtly or consciously.

If it is just one asari in the gestalt from a meld, I'd imagine that the asari is the one who determines how much awareness and control the non-asari partner has of what is going on.  They're the ones doing all the attuning.  When Liara and Shiala meld with Shepard, Shepard pretty much just stands there and takes it.  Liara determines what to sort through and Shiala determines what is transferred to Shepard.  During a sexual union it'd be a mutual sharing, but only because the asari wants to share.

That is pretty much my take on how asari get variance from the "father"  It is based entirely on the neurological signature, and each individual has a unique one, but within a range for that species.  Obviously there isn't any real exchange of genetic material, asari daughters get all of that from their mother.  They just tune in to their partner, and the neurological signal induces variance in half the genetic material, then that fuses with the base set and you have a fertilized gamete.
