But we are human. We do not surrender to the tedious drudgery of calculation.
"The entire series has been an affront to expectation: we believe we can do something and we make it true; tell Shepard she can’t and she’ll call you back when she has."
"I guess what I wanted from the ending - what I’m still waiting for in fact - is my Dorothy in The Wizard of Oz moment. The point where we get to pull back the curtain, show this little glowing jerk just how artless and crass these options are, how ridiculous his whole existence is. I know it’s childish - petulant even - but I want to swim in the moment where my Shepard stands up and says, ‘No.’ Where she looks that shimmering monster of equation in the eye and says, ‘These are not real choices, and I don’t believe in you.’"

Yeah, I know people don't care anymore but I came across this just now and yes. YES. THIS. All the shit we accomplished against unbelievable odds. The ending should have reflected that.
That will be all. For now.
