Shepard,

There seems to have been some kind of disaster in the Bahak system. It’s proximity to Dark Space would suggest a possible link with the Reapers. I will always be by your side to help, if you need it. If things are as critical as they seem, it may be time for me to come and join you aboard the Normandy, provided you still have room for a Prothean Expert, I believe the room behind the medical bay is now occupied however… 

Failing all else, it has been too long since we have spoken properly, Shepard. It would be good to see you again. 

Goddess go with you, 

Liara.

Pressing send, Liara leant on the console and sighed. It would take a few hours for the message to reach the Normandy and for once, she felt like she should sleep.

Shepard noted the green light on her console in the CIC as she exited the Armory, and as she fully expected whatever message waited for her to contain more tha one accusation she opted to read it in her quarters. Being very good at concealing her emotions in general, she still wasn’t in the mood to let as much as an untimely sigh slip.

Right now it felt as though she needed to keep herself together even more tightly than usual for the sake of the entire ship - some of them had clear courses after she went to Earth, like Samara and Tali and Thane, but where would Jack go? Miranda? Kelly, Joker, and Chakwas?

There was still time to figure all of that out, still time to make sure they’d be safe. Maybe she could bargain for them - information about Cerberus in return for none of them being prosecuted. Hell, she’d even agree to spend a while on an operating table so the Alliance could look at her new wiring as long as they left her people alone.

Striding through the door and up to her desk, she found that the message wasn’t some long rant about all the deaths she had caused, but from Liara - with an offer Shepard wished had come months earlier, though she was still glad to recieve it because she did need a Prothean expert. Ilos had just been one world, one among many, and somewhere out there there had to be more clues as to how the Protheans had tried to fight the Reapers. Something - anything - that could help.

Shepard pulled out the chair and sat down, opening up a private comm link with video to the Shadow Broker base. Better to talk to Liara face to face.

[liara-t-soni]

Liara was awoken by the loud, incessant chirping of the info-drone. She sat up quickly from her desk, clearing away the discarded datapads and remnant’s of last night’s meal. She’d chosen this alarm signal specifically, and knew it could only mean one thing.

Shepard.

She’d been waiting for what felt like an age to hear from the Commander, though objectively she knew she was being foolish. She felt a tinge of excitement as she schooled her features to lose the goofy grin and accepted the call, smiling warmly.

“Shepard, it is good to see you again. Are you alright? My operatives told me the batarian version of what happened in the Bahak system but... I can scarcely believe it.”

[liara-t-soni]

Liara paced the cold, empty halls of the Shadow Broker's ship... her ship. She was worried, she hadn't heard from Shepard for a while now, and she'd come across reports of a disaster in Aratoht. She also had an agent in Admiral Hackett's staff and she knew that he'd met with Shepard soon after. There was no proof, but it seemed like Shepard was somehow involved. More than that, Shepard's hard-suit medical readouts (something Liara had worked hard to intercept) had been registering higher stress levels than normal for her. 

Liara knew that if she was needed, Shepard would contact her, but she couldn't shake the feeling that something terrible had happened, and indeed more was on the way. She knew the arrival of the Reapers was imminent, she'd been doing all she could to help the galaxy prepare since Shepard's death, far more so now she had her new role; seeding news reports, altering military briefings. She couldn't afford to show the galaxy everything, it would start a panic, but perhaps, by letting the right people see the right information, she could start to make a difference. Nowhere near the difference Shepard would make in the coming months however. 

The asari walked back over to the main broker terminal and typed out an encrypted message to Shepard, bypassing the mostly redundant Cerberus filters still running on the Normandy.

Shepard,

There seems to have been some kind of disaster in the Bahak system. It's proximity to Dark Space would suggest a possible link with the Reapers. I will always be by your side to help, if you need it. If things are as critical as they seem, it may be time for me to come and join you aboard the Normandy, provided you still have room for a Prothean Expert, I believe the room behind the medical bay is now occupied however...

Well, friends, the ones who appear to still be around - aside from yours truly and Kasumi - are Ashley/Mordin, Jack, Legion/Garrus, Liara, and Wrex. Now, that isn’t a whole lot of people, but we’ve been at a low point before and bounced back so I’m not too worried!

The thing is, though, that we’ve been struggling for a while, so Kasumi and I would like to propose that we change things up, though we’d LOVE your input! What we can do is basically either try to keep going, pushing forward with what we have (and basically let Garrus and Liara take command of the situation on Omega in regards to the Normandy crew), skip forward in the plot, or drop this plot entirely and start over. Clean slate. Pick a new point in the story (make up something new between ME2 and 3, go post-ME3, whatever).

Please get back to us - say, before Feb. 1st - or reblog this and add your commentary. The latter might open up for more of a dialogue but if you’re not comfortable doing that, an ask/fanmail to this blog is just as welcome and we won’t publish anything if you ask us not to.

Once we’ve decided, we’ll get back to recruiting and stuff C:

- Shepard

[liara-t-soni]

Not that my opinion is worth much, being a relative newcomer here, but I feel like if we had myself and Garrus pushing things through it would require forcing quite a lot through in the RP without enough character interaction to give it narrative depth. Whilst I'd love to continue the story from this point, I'd say skipping forward would be preferable, then though we're still stuck with a reduced gamut of characters, so maybe a new story coupled with a fresh recruitment drive would be the most prudent course of action?

If you disagree, please feel free to say so and why in re-blogs of this post, as it will encourage discussion.

Goddess be with you,

Liara.

[liara-t-soni]

Liara stepped from the Normandy’s gangway and onto the grimy deck of the Omega docking port she’d reserved for them. She took a couple of steps out and turned back to the ship as she activated an open comm channel to the crew. “Operative Lawson has asked me to lead the investigation on Omega, if anybody has concerns about my appointment I’d ask they come to either myself or Miranda.”

She brought up her omni-tool, seeing a new message from her operative in Afterlife. “Aria will be expecting me, I’d like to ask Wrex and Operative Lawson to join me for this meeting. As Garrus has considerable experience with work on Omega, he’ll be heading up the second team examining both this docking bay, from which the ship carrying Shepard apparently departed, and pursuing investigation into the station proper if need be. I believe several individuals may be contacting us soon to join in the investigation, please notify me when they do.If anybody has any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact me, T’Soni, out.”

Liara moved toward the exit of the docking bay, running a quick sweep of the area for bugs as she waited for the rest of the crew to file out. 

[urdnotwrexthings-deactivated201]

Wrex followed after Liara, more than happy to look after the little asari who’d grown up so much since he’d last seen her. Making his way down the gangway, he swept a dangerous gaze over the area for any sign of trouble… well, anything besides a pissed off krogan warlord out to get his kidnapped friend back, anyway. Here on Omega, there were bound to be some idiots hoping to make a credit or two off his head. And hell, if they had the quad to take him out, they deserved to have rewards heaped on them. 

Chuckling quietly to himself, he spotted Liara near the exit and strolled over to her, glancing through the exit and checking the perimeter. 

"Aria, huh? Someone’s all grown up and playing with the big boys now." He cocked his head and grinned at Liara. 

[liara-t-soni]

Liara smiled a little as her Wrex approached. She knew that, in both krogan and asari terms, they hadn’t known eachother for long at all, but she still found herself considering him an old friend. She allowed her eyebrows to raise slightly at his comment. “I think you’ll find a great deal has changed since we first met Wrex. I wanted you with me precisely because you have been ‘playing with the big boys’ for some time, including Aria, if my intel is to be believed, though long before she used that name.” 

She turned more fully to the krogan and stepped closer. “I also wanted to ask your council. I’ve never led a mission with the Normandy crew before and I’d like to ensure it runs as smoothly as possible. Do you have any advice for how to… handle Aria? Should she not know as much as she claims, would you have any recommendations for where we should look next? I’m already pursuing some other leads, though I don’t want to ask my operatives to dig too deeply just yet in case they tip someone off, I’d appreciate your input.”

Liara looked up to the vaunted ceiling of the bay, then down to the crew assembling around Garrus’ command. “Hopefully Garrus’ team will be able to find something here as well, if we can find that ship, we have a chance of finding Shepard” she muttered, half to herself.

[urdnotwrexthings-deactivated201]

The huge krogan grunted in amusement and shifted his stance, casually resting his hands atop his shotgun. “Whaddya know.” He didn’t clarify, just chuckling to himself a moment before answering the rest of her questions.

"Look, your first mistake is assuming that Aria might not know what she claims. Aria knows everything that goes on on this rock.A lot of people like to think they’re small enough to be beneath her notice and that’s where they’re wrong. She’s got eyes and ears everywhere. Best to assume she does know what she claims and work from there. My advice? Wait and see what she has to say, first.”

[liara-t-soni]

Liara looked up at Wrex for a moment, thinking. The krogan was absolutely right she felt. He knew the way Aria operated far better than she did, her only previous meeting with Aria had been brief and she'd not exactly outshone herself. She nodded slowly and smiled. "Thank you, Wrex, we shall see how the meeting goes... Hopefully your presence will keep her a little off balance, though she may well be unfazed, knowing her ability to remain on top of things, her information network is almost as extensive as my own, though rather more... densely distributed." 

Liara checked her omni-tool for further notifications from her operatives on Omega, only two of the four had checked in, and they didn't have any new leads. The others missing was of some concern, Liara assumed that they had run afoul of someone they shouldn't have somewhere on the station, though considering what Wrex had just told her, it was just as possible that Aria had found them, in either case, she suspected that she wouldn't hear from them again. She sent off a brief message to Feron letting him know to arrange the promotion and deployment of two more operatives to Omega. Even if the old ones showed up, Liara suspected this station would only ever be of increasing importance. She closed her omni-tool down and walked over to stand beside her krogan friend.

[urdnotwrexthings-deactivated201]

Wrex snorted irritably and headed back toward the airlock, not putting his shotgun away just yet. Maybe he’d get lucky and could fire a shot at that geth and claim it was an accident before anyone could stop him… He grinned, that thought keeping him amused until he was back aboard the Normandy and discovered unfortunately the geth had beaten him back. Ah well. Maybe next time. Accidents happened on Omega all the time, moreso when he was around.

Crowding through the people gathered near the cockpit with no real concern for his size, he asked Joker, “What the hell are we doing sitting around here?” 

[liara-t-soni]

Liara followed Wrex aboard the Normandy. The cockpit was growing increasingly crowded, especially with the old krogan there. Liara stood back a little, but forward co-ordinates to Joker’s omni-tool. “Joker, I have the berth that the ship left Omega from, as that might be a good place for us to start looking perhaps we should dock there first” She looked up at Wrex, not entirely sure how to read him, but if his mood was anything like her own, time was undoubtedly of the essence. “I suggest we make haste.” 

Not wishing to make herself too unpopular with the pilot or, indeed Miranda, Liara turned away and made her way aft, heading down to the crew deck. Whilst it was good to work with her old friends from the first Normandy, she couldn’t help but feel a little out of place aboard the SR-2, without Shepard she couldn’t help but feel… unwanted. She could only hope that they could find out where Shepard was on Omega, or at least where to start looking.

Her omni-tool chimed as she received a message from one of her operatives, Aria would be on Omega when they arrived, and would undoubtedly know something about the people running that ship; nothing happened on Omega without her knowing about it. She would go and speak to her directly when they arrived, and she suspected that Operative Lawson at the very least would wish to accompany her.

[mirlawson]

Miranda peeked into the cockpit but quickly deemed it too crowded for her liking. She set off instead towards her personal office, fiddling with her omnitool. In the past she would have begun composing a report for the Illusive Man, but since her break with Cerberus she’d had significantly less to do. She paused her steps to read an email and, as she finished, noticed Liara T’soni leaving the cockpit. She debated with herself for a moment, then hurried after the asari.

"Liara!" she called, settling into step with her. "I just wanted to talk mission details with you, is that alright? I think you should be the one to lead the Omega segment of the investigation, since you currently have superior knowledge as well as existing contacts. And, of course, it will probably make Wrex happier." She laughed a little nervously.

[liara-t-soni]

Liara turned briefly to see Miranda Lawson catching up with her as she made her way to the crew deck. She frowned a little as Miranda spoke, and paused to turn to her. "I appreciate your concern, Operative Lawson. Whilst Wrex may have a tendency for... informality in the field from time to time, he is an experienced mercenary and is quite capable of taking orders, he always followed Shepard's when we were all getting to know each other on the hunt for Saren."

Liara looked away for a moment, recalling just how simple everything had seemed, despite it's hectic nature, nostalgia was going to get the better of her. She schooled her features and looked back up at the human. "I sincerely doubt you would have serious problems leading this mission, however... it is true that I have several operatives ready to greet us on arrival, as well as a safe-house in one of the more... affluent districts. In addition, according to my... to Matriarch Benezia's files, my family has some pull with Aria T'Loak." Liara blushed a little guiltily "I would be happy to lead the investigation, though only if you feel it would not compromise your position aboard the Normandy." 

[urdnotwrexthings-deactivated201]

Wrex snorted irritably and headed back toward the airlock, not putting his shotgun away just yet. Maybe he’d get lucky and could fire a shot at that geth and claim it was an accident before anyone could stop him… He grinned, that thought keeping him amused until he was back aboard the Normandy and discovered unfortunately the geth had beaten him back.

[liara-t-soni]

Liara straightened a little as she heard Legion mention her name. She didn’t think she’d be able to get into the network without the right equipment, and she hadn’t precisely packed with this in mind. She opened a communications channel “E.D.I., can you get past the firewall on the ship’s internal network? I have a semantic scrubbing program that should be able to find the information we’re looking for but I need omni-tool access to do it.”

She glanced briefly at Wrex and Thane and stepped up to them. “Hopefully if E.D.I. can compromise the network, we’ll be able to shut down any more mechs aboard as well.” She smiled up at Wrex a little, knowing how the krogan enjoyed a good fight. “Then maybe we can get to the bottom of this…”

[reducedtonumbers]

Liara’s request was processed the moment she’d uttered the first sentence, programs rushing to latch onto wireless signals that could take EDI in closer, closer, closer. 

In the brief second it took, the AI mused over why Liara hadn’t asked Legion - the geth as a whole had extensive knowledge of how to get into even the most intimate corners of organic technology, and the 1183 programs inhabiting the mobile platform travelling on board the Normandy surely had similar abilities. Perhaps the asari simply desired not to further aggravate Wrex; turning to the ship computer rather than Legion was, in that case, certainly the most logical and efficient solution.

"I have deactivated the firewall", EDI said, vocal output as calm as ever. "Omni-tool access should be avaliable to you now, Doctor T’Soni."

[liara-t-soni]

Liara looked up for a moment, she knew E.D.I. had been specifically designed with cyberwarfare in mind, but still hadn’t expected the AI to break past the ship’s defences so quickly. She connected her omni-tool to the internal network and started running her program. One of her top techs had devised it during her time on Ilium, and it was quickly able to pull up a host of data, the registry information of the ship, the flight plan. Data streamed on the small display of her omni-tool. 

"I’m sending everyone the data I’ve been able to pull from the network, it looks like the ship departed from Omega, we should be able to follow it back there and see if we can trace any leads, I have some…" She thought for a moment, she didn’t particularly want to broadcast just how broad her reach was at the moment, though she knew almost everyone on the ship knew the truth anyway, still, it felt improper to rub it in people’s faces. "I have some connections there, they may be able to help us find where they took Shepard"

The asari broke off the communications and quickly typed out a message to her operatives on Omega with the details of the ship, she considered sending one to Aria T’Loak; she hoped she might still have some pull with her after the incidents last time she was aboard the station, but decided it would be better to approach her in person, or not at all. Liara caught herself thinking back to that last encounter, almost sighing, chasing after Shepard, again… she felt a tiny pang of fear and buried it, hoping that this time Shepard would be in a far better state when they finally caught up. 

[urdnotwrexthings-deactivated201]

"Ha! Omega!" Wrex barked. "That’s a place I haven’t been in a long time. Hopefully we’ll have some more fun, there. This pathetic defense was hardly enough to whet my appetite." The krogan kicked a broken mech away from his feet and hmphed loudly. He shifted and rolled his neck, tugging at his borrowed armor and trying to get it settled properly. He needed a good fight to break it in and he glanced between the drell and the asari, hoping one of them might share his enthusiasm.  

[liara-t-soni]

Liara caught Wrex's eye and smiled knowingly, it had been some time since they'd fought side by side, and whilst she didn't exactly enjoy combat in the way Wrex did, it was undeniably good to have the krogan beside her again. She glanced at the drell beside them, and was immediately reminded that this wasn't a run down prefab on a barren planet found on their desperate hunt for Saren. This time, a once-constant member of their party was missing, and Liara had to fight hard to bury the fear in the pit of her stomach. "I, for one, hope this will be more straight-forward than recovering your family armour, Wrex" She added, trying to sound optimistic. She remembed how that was the first time she'd seen Wrex in his more contemplative mood, and immediately stopped herself, now was not the time for nostalgia.

[liara-t-soni]

Liara straightened a little as she heard Legion mention her name.
