David, I\\\'ve just told you exactly how it happens, and the only reasons you\\\'re giving for, well, anything at all is \\\"Because I said so!\\\" Deliberate, reasonable examples, such as \\\"Shepard is assumed to be in a relationship with Liara as soon as she comes on the ship, and one must speak to her to stop it\\\" are perfectly valid reasons for the trope (the definition of which is: Two characters get a RelationshipUpgrade without any of the in-betweens.)
In regards to the example you are given, the answer is no, Liara says nothing that would imply a relationship of any kind. She asks why the geth would come to kill her, and if Matriarch Benezia is involved. That\\\'s it.
After the conversation is over (which is what I\\\'m talking about), and before you leave the comm room, you are given a relationship confrontation with Ashley/Kaidan, where the scene that plays is the relationship confrontation.
That\\\'s actually the trope: A relationship is assumed even though there was absolutely zero buildup to it. There was no sexual banter, flirting, shared feelings. Nothing to assume anything other than the fact that she\\\'s present.
Liara hasn\\\'t even been on your ship for five minutes and already it\\\'s assumed you\\\'ve flirted with her and expressed an interest in her. And it\\\'s not just assumed by Ashley/Kaidan, it\\\'s assumed by Liara and Shepard (Shepard\\\'s diplomatic response being \\\"I never wanted both of you to get hurt\\\")
You\\\'ve not answered anything, just stated that it doesn\\\'t exist because you say so. No examples provided how it doesn\\\'t fit the trope at all. Unless someone else is going to weigh in on this conversation, I\\\'m going to put it back on the list, modified so as to avoid any mention of platonic feelings, but it\\\'s going back up.
