Mass Effect 2 : LP Complete, Releasing Control.

[laclongquan]

Krogan is a joke of oglaf's . Somebody is a fan of oglaf maybe?

 

[kazgar]

The brief glimpse on the quarian society is not too bad. They are trapped in their own world. A world made up of ship flotilla fleets where each member of their society is bred to contribute to the continued operation of their fleet. Being a member of a ship is actually like entering a family to them, a pilgrimage of sort where something of value needs to be brought back to the Flotilla. Except Tali is once again, ..how old is she, anyway?

its eldar craftworlds all over again.

 

[Brother None]

There were some interesting races in there, and some of their society came off as well done, but everything that propels the narration forward is badly done. The Council, Paragon or not, will refuse to acknowledge anything you've done. Reapers are a myth. Evidence ignored. It makes no damn sense in all the 2 years of Shepard's death, they did not even pursue the Reaper leads except for Shepard's ex-followers.

Mass Effect 2's story is a joke. In fact, the entire overarching Reapers plot is a joke. But again, aside from the loli race and blue sexslaves, this is p good sci fi fare. Just because BioWare can't write an interesting plot into it doesn't mean there is no potential for one. Hell, even the Geth become kinda interesting in ME2 even if still too superficial.

 

[random_encounter]

As a non-sexual deviant, it creeps me the fuck out. I sincerely hope Tali is dead by ME3 for being a dumbass who goes out of her suit for some rumpy-pumpy, but I'm afraid all they'll do is expand her romance options to include lesbians.

And miss the opportunity to add in future DLC to find the medicines and herbs needed keep to strengthening those emotional bonds? No wai.

 

[RK47]

Alright, there's a slight technical problem with the game. After I installed the Lair of Shadow Broker, Liara no longer hangs out in her office. An issue seems to crop up when I needed to trigger the Justicar recruitment mission. Bioware did leave Liara's personal computer behind to access the data on Samara (therefore triggering the quest), but for some reason, it did nothing. No entry update means no conversation options to pursue the lead. Hence, we will not recruit Samara. Apologies for those wanting to see the infamous Shepard dance club scene.

We still have some loose ends to tie up. Today's mission will involve Miranda's loyalty.

Also, traces of Dragon Age 2 quest design appears when I approach a distressed salarian.

And...that's it. Quest EXP and Reward. I guess I must've picked it up the quest item when I was recruiting Thane. And that's Mike Laidlaw's lifted feature from Mass Effect 2. Miranda's contact is located in the bar. A not so pretty looking asari contact.

What happened? Is Oriana all right?

She's fine. But..you listed a man named Niket as your trusted source? He contacted me, warning that your father has sent Eclipse mercenaries to make a sweep. He suggested that the mercs might be watching for you personally. He's offered to escort Oriana's family to the terminal instead.

Making changes now could be dangerous. Are you sure you can trust Niket?

Absolutely. He's one of my oldest friends. I trust him with Oriana. Lanteia, we'll follow Niket's suggestion. Shepard and I will take the car and draw their attention. Have Niket escort the family to the shuttle. Give him full access to the family's itinerary, just to be safe.

Understood, Miss Lawson.

So the plan is for us to get shot down by Eclipse while your sister gets to safety?

Eclipse will be under orders to take my sister alive. They won't risk anything that could kill us.

I'm ready whenever you are, Miranda.

Thank you, Shepard. I appreciate this. I hadn't planned on Eclipse...but they never planned on you.

Later, in the car...

Damn it!

Put us down in that cover behind them.

Let's hope they do really want to take us alive.

I got this.

Since you're not firing yet, I trust you know who I am.

Yeah. They said you'd be in the car. You're the bitch that kidnapped our boss' little girl.

Kidnapped? This doesn't involve you. I suggest you take your men and go.

Time to press the button of awesome.

The mission is a go.

 

[abnaxus]

How many party members can you "sacrifice" and still have Shepard survive?

 

[RK47]

I think you're pretty much safe if you got at least ONE loyal squad member alive at the end of the finale.

 

[RK47]

Shepard..I think I owe you an explanation. Oriana is my twin, genetically. But my father...grew her when I was a teenager. She was meant to replace me. I couldn't let my father do to her what she did to me. So I rescued her. She's almost a woman now.

Ah. Classic test tube baby dilemma. Is it a crime to grow babies to perfection, letting them reach adulthood, while shaping them as much as you please?

I can understand choosing to go your own way, but you stole a young child from her parent.

If you knew my father, you would understand. I wasn't the first one he made. I was only the first he kept. I was brought up with no friends, pushed to meet impossible demands. I wasn't a daughter to him. I was...I don't know what I was. Oriana has had a normal life. I made the right decision.

It's debatable. Miranda's action might have doomed her sister into a life of runaway. I know Oriana herself is unaware of her true origins and what others are planning for her, or even Miranda's thinly veiled designs. Fact is, Miranda does not exist in Oriana's life, Cerberus provided her with a family, accommodations, cover story, whatever it takes to keep Miranda working under Cerberus and Oriana is blissfully unaware in her 'normal' life. I think the Illusive Man knew this, but Miranda is just plain thinking with emotions. So, no, there really is no good solution to this dilemma. But let's just let Miranda convince herself that she's in the right. Cause all that matters is her conviction in the mission against Collectors.

Sounds like your friend Niket might be in some trouble.

If they've got to Niket somehow, this is going to be harder than I'd planned. According to the specs I reviewed, we'll need to cut through the cargo processing yard to get to Oriana.

Let's go.

Right. They're on the far side side of the conveyor belt. Time your shots!

The Mattock heavy rifle is part of the Firepower pack weapons, and is really overpowered. Bodies piled up as they advance in a narrow walkway. Time my shots? What for?

This is Enyala! Keep the bitch back! Niket is nearing the transport terminal!

Nice loot and more machines to kill.

I don't care how many mechs you lose! Just stall them, damn it!

Ah, increased medi-gel capacity. This will come in handy.

Divert everyone except my guard from Niket. I'll handle him and the kid personally.

Damn it! I'm not letting her get Oriana.

Eclipse Operatives have attempted to delay you by disabling the elevators. I am overriding their lockdown.

No sweat. The new rifle really mowed these clowns like cheese sandwiches.

Niket has reached terminal. He'll switch the family over to our transport.

Niket? But...that can't be right...Maybe the captain knows we're listening in and she's feeding misinformation about Niket making a switch. Or maybe it means something else. Niket wouldn't do that. Damn it, why won't this thing go any faster? *Hacks the elevator console*

The message on the radio seemed pretty clear.

No! I was told that I could handle this my way. We're not traumatizing the family any more than we -

Too late.

Miri.

This should be fun.

Not many civilians around. We can end this here and now.

Not before I get some answers. Why, Niket? You were my friend. You helped me get away from my father.

Yes! Because you wanted to leave. That was your choice! But if I'd known that you'd stolen a baby-

I didn't steal her! I rescued her!
You...you took Oriana when she was just a baby? What the...That's insane.

From a life of wealth and happiness? You weren't saving her! You were getting back at your father!

If Niket knows about Oriana, then your father does, too. Relocating her won't work.

Miranda's father has no information about Oriana. I knew you had spy programs in your father's system, Miri, so I kept it private. I'm the only one who knows.

I could stop her here...but...why should I? A bullet in the head solves everything.

Or in the chest. Doesn't matter.

Nice work, Miranda. Hold her still while I ....

Why the fuck did you throw her away when we could just make her eat bullets while suspended in the air?!

Fukkin' boss fight gave me an opportunity to test the Black Storm heavy weapon. It turned out to be shit.

The effects are great, but even the Grenade Launcher is better in performance, the Black Storm is just too slow.

We killed 'em all. Easy.

Here's another pick'up and give away quest item.

Yeah, I got no clue on who to pass it to, but we'll revisit Illium later to search for the owner.

There could be more Eclipse mercs near the shuttle. I want to make sure Oriana and her family get on safely.

We board the elevator. Miranda is still uncomfortable.

I can't believe Niket sold me out. I didn't even see it coming.

Everyone makes mistakes. I'm guessing that's one you won't repeat.

Why did he make me kill him? He could have run. He could've lied about having the data stored somewhere. But he just stood there, the only loose end. He knew what I'd have to do. *sobs*

Let's get moving.

Right. No sign of Eclipse. It looks like we're clear.

Come on, we should go.

Don't you even want to say hello?

It's not about what I want. It's about what's right for her. The less she knows about me, the better. She's got a family. A life. I'll just complicate that for her.

Sigh. You already complicated her life by taking her away from her father. I don't get Miranda's motive. I know she's doing it out of the morality issue and her own conscience. But was she even justified in preserving this farce of a normal life, under the surveillance of Cerberus for someone who doesn't even acknowledge her existence? And all that, for the satisfaction that it's one less test tube baby is being cultivated under her father's eyes...which he can do again easily. Fucking pointless, isn't it?

Okay. Let's go.

 

[spekkio]

Great job as always, RK47.

Other readers are probably too shy to post.

 

[Sceptic]

Dunno, I can kinda understand Miranda's motive. Even if Oriana's family isn't her biological family and the whole thing is arranged by Cerberus, Miranda's actually giving her the possibility, once she becomes an adult, to make her own choices, something that presumably Miranda (and Oriana) could not do while under the father's influence. And as long as Oriana's not aware of what's really going on, it can't really affect her life. It may not look like a normal life to someone who knows what's going on, but to Oriana it is, and in some ways it's the only thing that matters.

Fun fact: had you used the Paragon interrupt, Niket would STILL have been shot. Bioware C&C for you.
Now go back to Liara and invite her on the ship already

 

[laclongquan]

Am I the only one thinking that Miranda had saved her clone, sorry twin, sister from two decades of being submissive sex slave in the cellar to their presumed father?

 

[Edward_R_Murrow]

I trust Garrus, the most EXTREME companion, will be one of the survivors. Take him along in the group; everyone else can suck it.

For yucks, have Jack lead the fireteam, and Miranda be the biotic shield in the final mission. Maximum casualties guaranteed.

 

[RK47]

Am I the only one thinking that Miranda had saved her clone, sorry twin, sister from two decades of being submissive sex slave in the cellar to their presumed father?

Oh, god. Please stop. I just have to thank the gods that Bioware isn't a Japanese RPG Hentai developer. (Or maybe they're supposed to be?)

Right. We return to the Normandy for a nice, pleasant after mission...

Chat.

I'll deal with it.

Take pictures.

Enough! Stand down, both of you!

The cheerleader won't admit what Cerberus did to me was wrong!

It wasn't Cerberus. Not really. But clearly you were a mistake.

My opinion is the one that matters. You two keep a deck apart at all times.

She can't be trusted, Shepard. She'll jeopardize the whole mission.

If we survive this, you two can tear each other apart. Until then, save your hate for the Collectors.

She'll survive. I'll make sure of it.

You two going to be okay?
*Jack leaves without saying anything*

It's a good thing you came by when you did. As long as she does her job, we'll be fine. Thanks, Shepard.

Yeah, but let's chat about your sister. Or whatever you want to talk about, hmm?

Thanks again, Shepard. Taking the time to help me with my sister...I couldn't have reached Oriana in time without your help.

Let me know if I can do anything else.

I think I've got it from here. My father has no chance at finding her family in their new location. But thank you, Commander. My sister is safe again, thanks in large part to you. I won't forget that.

Yeah, that's great. Let's check on the others. How about Thane? What's bothering him?

Is something wrong?

Are you feeling sick? I could get the doctor.

No, no. Though I suppose that is a part of it. My mortality has me...dwelling on things. I had a family, once. I still have a son. His name is Kolyat. I haven't seen him for a very long time.

Oh dear, here we go.

Did something happen to them?

I abandoned them. Oh, not all at once. Nothing dramatic. No sneaking out in the middle of the night. No final argument or slammed door. I just...did my job. I hunted and killed across the galaxy. "Away on business," my wife would tell people. I was always away on business.

So...Mrs. Krios couldn't get any action?

How long has it been since you talked?

Ten years. He showed me some of his schoolwork and asked if we could dance crazy. We did that when he was younger.

What sort of dance is that.

It's-- I CHECKED MY EXTRANET CONTACTS. I EXPECT AN UPDATE ON MY NEXT TARGET. THE CONSOLE PLAYS MUSIC. OLD. UNFASHIONABLE.

That was the drell "Memory Recall". Something they could do to pinpoint exact memories at will. Shep doesn't give a fuck.

There have been complications. I used my contacts to trace Kolyat. He has become - disconnected. He does what his body wills.

You'll have to explain that one to me.

Disconnected. The body is not our true self. The soul is. Body and soul work as one in a Whole Person. When the soul is weakened by despair or fear - when the body is ill or injured, the individual is disconnected. No longer Whole.

Just give it to me straight. I'm not interested in your philosophical BS.

He has gone to the Citadel, and has gained a job as a hit man. I could discover no more.

You don't hire a raw rookie for a contract killing.

I'm afraid someone may have seen we share a name, and assumed we share skills. I don't know why he would accept the task.

Maybe he name-dropped you to get hired.

It's possible. But I don't think so. It doesn't seem right. My name - he should not respect it.

What made him go to the Citadel?

Years ago, I prepared a package for him. A rely of my ill-spent life. I had volus bankers store it and arranged it for delivery when I died. He acquired it early. I really don't know how. I did wet work on the Citadel around the time his mother died. That may be why he went there.

I'll get us to the Citadel as soon as possible.

I'll be meditating until you need me.

Looks like another family drama to tackle. Let's check on Mai Waifuu in Engineering.

Have you got time to talk?

Yes, I'd like that.

No, Tali-chan. Aishiteruze.

You've never been selfish. If anything, you've spent too much time thinking of the Fleet and not enough thinking of yourself.

That might be true for humans, but quarians are different. We can't just...We have to think of other people, always. If we don't think about the needs of the whole crew, people could get hurt. Maybe even killed. You deserve to...be happy with someone. I can't do that. No matter how much I...I could get sick. Jeopardize the mission.

And if you weren't jeopardizing anything?

If it were just me? I watched you tear into the Thorian on Feros like a force of nature. Nothing could slow you down.

I watched your face as Lieutenant Alenko died on Virmire.

Are you saying you could die if we were together?

It's always a risk. Maybe the reaction would be minor. Maybe it would put me down for a few weeks. Or maybe it would kill me. But...That's not what I'm concerned about, Shepard.

I...I wouldn't blame you, if..but..Oh. Thank you. You don't know what that...Thank you. Give me a little time. I'll do some research. Figure out how to make this work.

What can you do? Can I help?

There are a few ways to temporarily improve my immune system. Immuno-boosters, antibiotic injections, that kind of thing. I'll spare you the details. But trust me, I've got plenty of motivation to figure something out.

Do your research quickly, Miss vas Normandy. Captain's order.

All right. Yes. Definitely. Until then, I should, you know, do something. Repairs. For the mission.

No. There's no mission to gather the herbs or chemicals or drugs for her to have EXTREME skin contact with Shepard. We just have to give her some time. She'll call us when she's ready.

In the mean time, let's satisfy ourselves with....

This.

Tell me something I don't know about you.

Nothing to tell. Why?

Because that's how it works. My ship, my rules.

Got it. Just another boss man wanting to get into my head. I know the drill. Something you don't know, huh? Obvious stuff like what's up with my ink, or something else just as boring? You're not really interested unless it affects you. I've been through all this shit before.

You're a hard person to like, Jack.

Really? I had no idea. What other amazing insights do you have that I'm too stupid to see?

I'll bite. What's with the tattoos?

Some are for prisons I've been in. Some are for kills. You know, good ones. Some are for things I've lost. Those aren't your business. They're nobody's business. And some are because, hey, why the fuck not?

You work pretty hard at not letting people get close.

I've been with lots of people. If you're asking about a boyfriend or girlfriend, no. It's a waste of time and it never works. You let someone get that close, it just means they need a shorter knife. Lonely and alive works just fine, thanks.

You're tough, but you can't have survived alone all these years.

When I was starting out, I ran with this girl Manara and her boyfriend. They knew their way around. I thought they'd help me. Right. They helped me into their bed. And when we finally did take down something big, they helped themselves to my share of the take. I knew where it was heading, and I got them first. Never bothered with friends after that.

They sound like selfish pricks. That doesn't mean they were going to kill you.

I got feelings. I don't need proof. I did the smart thing. I always do the smart thing when people fuck with me. That's probably something you should remember.

I have to go, but we should do this again.

Wait. My turn with the questions. People usually walk by now. Why are you really asking all these things?

Let's

I'd be lying if I said no. You're different.

 

[Sceptic]

LIARA. INVITE. SHIP. SEX. NOW

otherwise, cool update bro

 

[Brother None]

Those drell memory recalls are so clumsy.

Also, extreme Shep is going to fuck the little kid? That's creepy.

 

[RK47]

Unfortunately, like I said, the save import must have been corrupted or something, it does not acknowledge the Liara romance, and at times it would claim that Ashley was the one who died on Virmire. I really can't explain why this happen. A save editor wouldn't help since it requires me to start from beginning with an edited save (!) for the issues to correct itself.

Apologies, the canon of our EXTREME Shepard is slightly messed up.

Also, ME 3 sounds awesome.

 

[Sceptic]

You don't need to have a romance with Liara to invite her on ship (I didn't). If it's nonromance you just get a nice friendly chat with her up there. I'm surprised you didn't get the option earlier actually and that's why I thought you were purposefully avoiding it.

Ah well, I guess something else must've shorted in the import process. Considering they also didn't bother to check if Samara is still recruitable after Lair is installed... and to think some people, even on the 'dex, claim Bioware's games are "free of issues"...

 

[RK47]

Let's get back to talking with the crew. Oh, let's pretend Tali didn't even hear all that fucking just a deck below her Engineering section. Lawl.

I've done a lot of crazy things, but I never tried to take on a thresher maw on foot before. Standard operating procedure when you got a thresher maw is "run the hell away." Pick up sticks, move the hell out. Krogan don't know any better, I guess. Still, hell of a fight.

Heh.. I was just...her..sitting here thinking. The picture. I'm finally starting to get it. There's a tank imprint - the battle at Canrum. A dead turian. Stripped. You don't see them out of their armor much. A krogan boot to his head. And a claw hammer. It's under the brow plate, pulling it back, right? Eyes have gone black, and you see tension in the muscle. You can feel it ready to snap. I get it.

Canrum isn't ringing a bell.

Death of Shiagur, female warlord. Turians killed her, so they were hunted down and made examples. Even if they won the war. It was their last push before the rebellions ended.

You better have a good reason for ruining my lunch.

It's just great. It's a turian, and he's being torn apart for what they did. I felt nothing before, but now I get it - it was a good fight. The enemy was destroyed to punish them all and send a message. I get it. I hate turians. I thought you'd be glad.
I...what is this I don't even.

Don't start anything with Garrus. I won't have trouble on my ship.

I don't hate Garrus, I hate turians. Garrus is just one turian, and he's your clan. No point in ripping his face off unless he turns on me. It's hate, but it's mine. Okeer was blind, and he tried to make me the same. But thanks to you, I have a clan. I'm starting to see why I should care. Anyway, I'm still figuring where I fit, but it made me laugh. Nothing else really on my mind, Shepard.

My god, why did they put this guy in the game again? The next crew is much better.

Have you got a minute to talk?

Actually wanted to talk. Medical matters. Aware that mission is dangerous. Different species react differently to stress. Past relationship with Tali'Zorah makes dalliance attractive as stress release. Still recommend caution. Quarian immune system weak. Could kill her.
My, my. This guy's kinda sharp.

You have a recommendation as a doctor?

Tali'Zorah acquired antiseptic. Recommend you self-sterilize as well. Oral contact with tissue dangerous. Take precautions. Also forwarding booklet to your quarters. *uses his omni-tool* Valuable diagrams, positions comfortable for both species, erogenous zone overview. Can supply oils or ointments to reduce discomfort. Gave EDI electronic relationship aid demonstration vids to use as necessary.

Wait a minute, Mordin. You're just yanking me around, aren't you?

Shocking suggestion! Doctor-patient confidentiality a sacred trust. Would never dream of mockery. Enjoy yourself while possible, Shepard. Will be here, studying cell reproduction. Much simpler. Less alcohol and mood music required.

Mordin sounds so happy to hear Tali getting hooked with Shepard. It's almost as if he's going to enjoy the live video feed. Do these salarians have sex? Next crew is another fellow black in the ship, Jacob. We've done his loyalty mission very early. And there's not much left to do.

I'm more interested in just talking for a bit.

Sounds good. I could use some down time. There's always something, right? The way people talk, we may as well be dead already. Hard for the crew to relax on this kind of job.

You all right, Jacob? It's got to be rough finding out about your father on top of everything else.

I covered this. The stuff we're dealing with? Way more important than any of my personal shit. Let it go, Shepard. I have.

You got it, Jacob. You say you're focused, that's good enough for me.

I appreciate it. Once the real problems are out of the way, we can drown the little stuff in a bar somewhere. Bore a dancer with it.

Sure, they love that kind of thing.

Sometimes you just need someone to smile and nod while you talk. But that's a long way off. The numbers say we've got a lot of dying to do first. Always on the wrong side of the odds, huh, Shepard?

It's all guesswork until we're done. No point in worrying.

Heh, never been one to worry. I'm just a realist. Anyway, I need to get back to work. Good talking to you.

Final stop, the cockpit.

I assume everything is going well up here?

We're just having an argument over personalization of my workplace.

Cerberus regulations are clear, Mr. Moreau. "Personalization" does not include grease on my bridge cameras.

It's just mad that all its footage of me looks like a dream sequence.

That's it for now.

See you, Commander.

I guess we should be heading to Citadel to help out Thane's son. But let's check our mail and touchdown on Illium to tie up some loose ends before we go.

 

[GarfunkeL]

EXTREME SEXING!

 

[Brother None]

Jesus they actually have a side-dialog on how retard the loli sex is? What the fuck is wrong with these writers. Not to mention the readers.

 

[PlanHex]

Up yours, BN.
Mordin is awesome.

 

[Brother None]

I wasn't commenting on Mordin, smart-ass. I was commenting on how incredibly creepy the Tali romance is. They just pile it on. It's not enough to have Shepard fuck an underage loli alien. They gotta make it extra creepy.

 

[RK47]

It is pretty cringe-worthy. They're milking it for all it's worth which makes me feel damn confident on them not taking Tali out of ME3.

There will be hell to pay in the bio-boards. lmao.

 

[PlanHex]

made yuo post

 

[RK47]

OK guys, sorry for the long wait. I finally got around to playing a game that I really want to play, and it did not disappoint. This update will let you down, because it's really nothing but tedium in Illium. Try to enjoy or suffer through it, like I did.

A missing stuff, eh? I've got something for you!

It can't be replaced! It's a token from my bondmate! It's the only thing my child has to remember her father by! Please, if you find it...No, I understand. Pardon me, I'm dealing with damn Illium travel bureaucracy.

Were you trying to get them to help you find this locket?

Oh. Steven.

Yep. No problems. I mean, hell, at least they put emotions when rewarding the return.

Please accept this. It's much less than I would have had to pay the bureaucrats to authorize a search.

500 Credits + 50 EXP This is chump change compared to Dragon Age II's 50 silver standard rewards for insta-fed-ex.

Spent a lump of cash on upgrades. Then I overheard a krogan love poem. What the fuck?

But beauty under glass is untested and weak. Where are your honored dead, to fertilize your ground that you might grow strong? On the rocky plains of Tuchanka, I will build you a garden from the bones of my ancestors!

The object is his affection is an Asari. A blue rose, indeed.

What do you want? Sorry, sorry. That damn krogan's love poems are getting on my nerves.

The krogan is reading those love poems to get your attention?

His name is Charr. We're kind of dating, but, well...we're on a break. And he's trying to show how sensitive he is by, well, wooing me. It's really bad.

Why are you two on a break?

He's serious. Serious as in talking about kids. Charr is a great guy to date, but for something permanent? Krogan live long lives. It's not like dating a human, where you just stick it out for a century until they die. Uh, no offense. It makes me wonder if he really likes me, or if he just wants kids. He can't have them any other way, you know, because of the genophage.

It doesn't seem common for asari to date krogan. What brought you two together?

He's a fun guy. Really smart, especially for a krogan, and he's got a good job as a transport technician. It's fun to join a mercenary guild or dance at bars for a few centuries, but eventually you hit the matron stage, you know? Then you get your back tattoo removed, let your scalp go back to its natural blue, and settle down with someone dependable.

You need to talk to your boyfriend. He's just going to keep shouting poetry until you do.

Oh for fuck sake, just tell him to leave already.

Listen, he's a krogan. Any talk about kids is going to mess him up.

I know. You can't talk to a krogan about the genophage. They get so angry.

If you settle down with him, you'll spend the rest of your life wondering if he was after you or kids.

Yeah. You're right. I guess I needed to hear somebody else say it. I'm going to talk to him. Here, I've given you a discount at the terminal. Thanks for the help.

That's nice. Until I see her store inventory...

Oh dear.

You saved us from that enormous geth attack...and from Thorian creature's control.

Yeah. And annihilated potential infested colonists in the process.

Too many people died in the fighting for us to save the colony. It's still better than being a slave to the Thorian, though.

Oh. Okay. Guess you want a hand out? No, fuck off.

I'm sorry. I've got other things to deal with. *turns around to leave*

Hm? Screwed over? Humanity? Fuck that, Shepard is on the case!

I suggest you leave. Your life is short enough. Do not waste time what time you have bothering me.

What's your problem with humans?

Not just humans. It's all of you. The salarians and turians are no better. The galaxy would be a better place if nobody but the asari had ever dragged themselves out of the primordial muck.

The geth created by the idiotic quarians? That a rogue turian Spectre led in an attack? The geth didn't start with the Citadel. They attacked your human colony, Eden Prime, first.

So it's okay if only the humans get screwed over by the geth?. I get it. You're a retard.

You humans brought the geth upon us. You, and the turians, and the quarians. My people's death are in your hands!

Why are you so prejudiced against the aliens?

Where do I begin? With salarian explorers unleashing the rachni upon us, then unleashing the krogan to correct their mistake? Or the turians, so eager to bomb every problem away? Or humans, the new arrivals who already think they should be in charge? Every war that has plagued the galaxy has been caused by your people. My people's deaths are in your hands.

My god, if this bitch ever learned the truth behind the Reapers, she's going to have a heart attack. So much butthurt over flawed logics.

Whose deaths are we talking about exactly?

Not again! What is up with Illium? Where are the bad-ass EXTREME dialogs?! Why am I playing space psychiatrist to these retarded aliens?

She won't. Stop. Cumming.

No, red doesn't lead to EXTREME headslam.

Your bond mate as with the quarians. Your daughters worked with aliens every day at the Embassy and the Consort.

And look what happened to them!

You've suffered. I get that. But these colonists were trying to live peacefully. They've suffered, too. They lost family to the geth and the Thorian creature. Don't add to their anguish.

The EXTREME words of the black man made the asari doctor break down and cry.

I'm...sending an amended contract. No more tests. No fees. There's enough grief in the galaxy. I don't need to add to it.

I felt nothing but tedium. Bioware tried something here, but I really can't catch anything out of it. Breaking up an inter-alien relationship and forcing an unethical doctor to change her ways seems...inane in the larger picture of things.

Illium is content packed, and I'll be visiting the bar on the next update. It can't get any more anal than this. Does it?
