Using the same team as I did for Tali's loyalty mission, just because I didn't have her along the first time I was here with my other Shepard. Her reaction to Legion could be interesting.
Morinth, for her part, points out that the bodies on board the Cerberus science ship don't look like the work of geth, doing much too good a job of impersonating her boring mother.
Now Samara, possessing the body of her daughter from beyond the grave, wonders if the data Cerberus recovered was worth all these lives.
After a husk attack, Morinth wonders out loud if the husk technology came from the geth or Sovereign. Tali responds that the geth origin never made sense to her, and that finding husks here confirms it's Reaper tech.
These Cerberus work logs remind me of something I thought would happen in the first game after it was mentioned that being on board Sovereign affected your mind. I was sure that Shepard would need to go on board the ship for the big climactic fight with Saren and that he (since I was playing as a guy that time) would have to resist its mind control. That never happened, fortunately for Shepard. I'm actually kind of glad it didn't, because it would make him seem like a little bit too perfect and unstoppable, if he were able to resist the kind of mind-control that had claimed Saren and Benezia, neither of whom were exactly weak-willed.
Samorinth notices gunfire cutting down a husk, and suggests making contact with the shooter, since they may be part of the Cerberus team.
Legion!
Samorinth says that she's never heard of a geth speaking to organics before. Tali says he shouldn't be able to talk and disdainfully says that a single geth has no more intelligence than a varren. Which was basically what Jack said the first time I was here, that a single geth isn't that intelligent, but she wasn't contemptuous the way Tali is.
(The other party member I had with me the first time was Grunt, btw, who said that somebody should tell the geth that he didn't need its help.)
I just got the Brawler achievement! Awesome.
Samorinth, after the fight against hordes and hordes and hordes more of husks, suggests that we bring the geth onto the ship because its behaviour was...strange. Tali says to leave it because we know what they're like and if it gets into the ship's computers...Fem!Shep says that Tali said herself that nobody's every found one intact. Tali acknowledges that but says that the risk is too great. Sorry Tali, we're taking him.
And I'm turning him on. By which I do not mean romancing him, because the game won't let me. That is the only reason I am not doing it.
Back on the ship, EDI is telling me that I should take the shuttle to my next destination because she's integrating the IFF into the systems just less than two minutes after the cutscene where she said it would take several hours before she got done with the IFF! So it looks like that scene where the ship gets boarded is gonna happen on the very next planet we visit and I won't be able to do Legion's loyalty mission before the suicide mission this time either!!! FUCK!
Oh yeah, and I went to see Morinth, and all of her conversation options are the same. Damn it, Bio Ware, you are frustrating me. And if something as small as this frustrates me, I'm dreading how I'll react to the ending of the trilogy, because that's bound to be even worse.
Oh well...moving on...
