Eni smiled through the pain. Her mouth stained blue, teeth smeared with blood. She was weakening, the bullet had carved a path, like a hot knife through butter. Eni realised that she had very little time left. She gripped the hand pressing on her stomach with the last of her strength ( ... )

Shepard drew the trembling turian child tight to her chest. She shook her head when Dr. Chakwas tried to coax her to talk. There were no words. Shepard hugged Janix close as doctors, nurses, civilians, and security personnel flooded the hospital foyer. Her shoulders wilted as she wept ( ... )

Dr. Chakwas saw how Shepard reacted to his flanging cry. The turian word for mother was repeated in a higher frantic pitch. Shepard embraced Janix as if her were her son, pressing him close to her chest, her arms secure around his fringe, back, and bottom. She glared at the asari nurse. Dr. Chakwas recognised that dangerous glint in Shepard's eyes ( ... )

Tip for next time: Punctuation goes inside the speech marks :)

Should that P have been capitalized?

Not if you're not born in the US.

British English writers do use punctuation outside the speechmarks. What you've read is correct for the UK.

It's not for US writers.

They punctuate inside the speechmarks.

As for the capitalisation of the P, in a title, it's relevant.

I'm not the OP but I'm British, and we do not use punctuation outside of speech marks (we prefer inverted commas).

If I'm wrong, I have yet to see any book or media involving direct speech that has used punctuation outside of the inverted commas.

Actually they do use punctuation outside the speech-marks in the British colonies.

NZ for example.

They also use punctuation inside the speech-marks too.

Neither example is wrong.

Both are right, they're just different for different parts of the world.

No, I'm a New Zealander and we were definitely taught inside, never outside unless it's only a fragment of a quote.

Awesome; I loved the little guy! Are you going to expand on this with some Turian, Garrus, snark in a follow up? :D

I hope they, Bioware, have an exciting 'Garrus' like LI for ME4!
