Mass Effect 32012

Miranda Lawson:
Shepard. It's so good to finally see you.

Commander Shepard - Male:
You too, Miranda.

Miranda Lawson:
I couldn't get anywhere near you when the Alliance had you locked up.

Commander Shepard - Male:
Relieved of duty. It was complicated.

Miranda Lawson:
I'm sure it was. I'm surprised they didn't court martial you. The Alliance isn't known for its flexibility.

Commander Shepard - Male:
Doesn't matter now.

Miranda Lawson:
Shepard, about Earth...

Commander Shepard - Male:
Countless people lost their lives within minutes. The Reapers are everything we feared.

Miranda Lawson:
They should've listened to you a long time ago... I'm sorry, Shepard.

Commander Shepard - Male:
What about you? What brings you here?

Miranda Lawson:
I need to talk to a few people, like you. The Citadel was a good place to meet, for now. So, what's the Alliance's next move?

Commander Shepard - Male:
We have a plan. It's a long shot.

Miranda Lawson:
Not surprising... Shepard, am I still part of your plan? It's been so long, I wasn't sure where we stood.

Commander Shepard - Male:
Miranda... [Takes her hands into his] Things are never going to be easy for us, but I'll always want you in my life.

Miranda Lawson:
No second thoughts? This is your chance to back out.

Commander Shepard - Male:
None.

Miranda Lawson:
[Leans forward, kissing Shepard on the cheek] It was hard to be away from you. Surprised myself how... attached I got. I'm not good at attached.
