I've watched/listened to that 10 minute video you made of them cuddling each night since it's been posted. I actually listened to it while reading some fanfic for an hour yesterday; I'd just hit the play button when it got to the end. In no way was 10 minutes too muchsergio71785 wrote...

Sacrifice a Quarian baby during a full moon in the month of November at 2:22 AM, all while praising Tali. Then your curse is gone.
No. No.
Must be mockery. Is no "cure" to supposed curse.
But animals can smell your guilt. As can I.
*prepares batch of genophage for Mike4PA*
Don't knock it till ya try it. Oh, and be sure to bathe in the baby's blood while wearing a Quarian mask. Or else you must repeat the ceremony every year.
What does it keep you young for 200 years? Also, Doc, why?! I'm the only native american I have seen in Missouri, our people don't need more thinning of our ranks <_<
The ritual keeps the evil tali spirits from eating you for your infidelity. It's in the Big Book of Tali Rituals.where do I get that? I don't imagine its in any Barns & Noble...
Not really, but some of the stupidity that comes in here on occasion really irks me.Pauravi wrote...
Do you really believe that?Felipe 058 wrote...
I hope you all take to heart what has been said here, as we are Tali's only chance

Yeah so I just finished up another career I made. I did a paragon, Adept, and I chose to romance Miranda to my misfortune. It was hard to do, because I had to look past her just purely b**** of an attitude,
...
I finished the game, and thought to myself "what have I done... I feel dirty. I need a smoke."
You're right, she starts out very b*tchy, but she grows a lot as a character over the course of the game. I was impressed when I went from disliking her attitude the moment I met her, to smiling while hearing her talk about the conversation she had with her sister. I enjoyed her romance, too.
Frankly, I like Miranda. I just like Tali more.
Well, Mirranda did after all gave TIM the middle finger and cut him off mid rant. Can't be all bad. :happy:
Still, Tali <3 Shepard in a way that speaks more of loyalty and sacrifice than any other LI. Thus she deserves Shepard's <3 more then any other in return.

What you said is exactly what I argued, to the letter. I love the quarians, I identify with them as a species more than any other in the ME universe, but they played with fire, and subsequently got burned.
Actually, if people actually spent time and talked to Legion, he plays the audio file of the exact moment when the geth asked "Do we have souls?"
What makes it heartbreaking is how it is said. Much akin to a 3 or 4 year old asking that very same question. Instead of coming to terms with the possibility that they have made a mistake and that their creation has awareness that should like any other child be taught and perhaps in the process learn to co-exist, the Quarians panicked and tried to pull the plug, essentially murdering children, children with teeth and ability to pull a trigger, but still, one has to wonder what would have happened if they had not made that first strike against the geth.
Legion says too, the geth are still wondering what motivated the creators to start that war, hinting at a possibity of peace in the first place.
Don't buy it. You can't trust the Geth of now. You really couldn't trust the Geth of then, but the Quarians should of never struck first.
Geth are machine, they process logic and values far differently then we do. We can know know truly what motivates them to do anything. They can be prone to very difficult to comprehend choices. They could be deceiving us entirely.
Not that I actually think thats the case, as machines you can't trust them to do anything but what they're programmed for.
To quote the Terminator
"Desire is irrelevant, I am a machine."
Technically Humans are machines too. As are all 'Organic' lifeforms.
Also the lack of emotion doesn't mean that they have no ethics. The geth clearly have a solid ethical code based on freedom of choice. Wether you agree with there ethics is a different discussion but its not like they operate randomly. Everything you said about them such as difficulty comprehending thier choices could be said for humans. I'd say humans are less trustworthy than the geth cuase you never know when one will do something tottally irrational.
Ehh I don't know, humans don't qualify as machines at all. A machine is something mechanical, that uses mechanical energy to power itself.
Im not even going to point out the irony of that state..... oh wait yes I am. When you lift your arm. Yeah thats basically a pulley. One of the most simple machines. That uses mechanical power to lift something.
ZING!

Oh! While I'm thinking about it, request advice from doc and any other tali mancers who give a flying f***.
Thinking about adding sex scene to oneshot collection, not smut mind you, will remain tasteful as possible, don't want to degrade tali. Good idea or not?
Also writing seperate chapter where renegade shepard turns tali renagade after exile. similar to femshep with kaidan. thoughts on ideas? suggestions?
But lots of machines use different forms of potential energy to power themselves. Lots of machines power themselves with gasoline; potential energy stored in the bonds of molecules, just exactly the same way that humans use adenosine triphosphate as chemical potential for cell processes.Yazman wrote...

I meant to comment on this. Make it tasteful and people will love it. Just look at Marines FF, people like tasteful love making scenes.danteshepard wrote...

Bones can be talked about as a mechanical system of levers and hines, and muscles as a way to apply torque to those levers. The human body is "mechanical" in many ways.

Yeah, but I can't help but getting this nagging doubt that that was just a ploy set up by TIM in order to win my trust for her so she can continue to spy on me.

I think that was me. Just a personal experience and feelings about itAzint wrote...
We're trying to make nice with the folks at the Miranda thread, and I thought we all agreed that this thread is to support Tali, not talking about characters we dislike.
If you dislike a character, fine, but don't drag that here.
I still dont want to go back outside, but I won't incite it again.

Sorry, but that isn't mechanical power at all. What you are saying is that organic beings are analogous to machines but to say they are actually machines themselves contradicts both academic definitions as well as "dictionary definitions."
I do agree that they are analogous but they aren't the same at all.

First of all, there is no reasons that machines can't have emotions.Lareit wrote...
Machines do not have emotions. Any ethics they claim to have, are simply that. A claim.
