"Liara, do you have anything?" Shepard asked.
"Yes—no, not really. The devices are transmitting something, much like the Reaper indoctrination, but it's not. The pieces are no danger as long as they are kept in stasis."
"Something other than the Reapers can control minds?"James shook his head. "As if we didn't have enough problems."
"Agreed. Liara, we need to find out where these items came from."
"Of course. I'll do some digging." Liara agreed, "In between my duties monitoring the crew. One hint. The C-Sec officer that was affected mentioned feeling cold, and commented it was dark. Controlled by something out in space perhaps?"
"Let em know if you find anything." Shepard nodded at the Asari and left her office. As he passed Grunt in the kitchen, he said, "Grunt, patrol tonight, make sure no-one is sneaking around."
"Will do, Shepard."
He punched the buttons on the elevator, and rode it to his cabin. Connecting his omni tool to his computer, he brought up images and videos of the strange goings on over the past few days. Flipping through the files, he came across one entry. Watching the swirling lights inside a crystal orb, he was reminded of swirling water, the ocean.
***
Grunt lumbered up and down the crew quarters hallway, his heavy footsteps echoing loudly. "The Battlemaster needs to let me join him on a mission." he muttered. He was starting to get cabin fever, as the Humans called it. "Can't do a proper Krogan charge in here."
"Good thing you don't have to then." a voice behind him said. He turned to see a crew member standing nonchalantly in the hall behind him.
"Curfew, captains orders." Grunt said. "Get to your bunk."
"Of course, I was jsut heading there," Crew member agreed. "But first, the captain asked that you deliver this to Liara, ASAP." The crew member handed Grunt a small package. "Whatever you do, don't eat it." Crew member smirked, and headed off to find their bunk.
"Hmph, that scrawny Asari won't miss a bite." he muttered, and reached inside the bag. His hand didn't pull out food however, but a small glowing ball. "What's this, doesn't look edible." he looked into the orb for a moment. The swirling lights began to form a pattern. Waves on an ocean. As he stared, the poit of view came closer and closer to the waters surface before finally plunging down, down, ever deeper.
***
"Shepard, you need to come see this." Thanes voice came over the comm. "Something is wrong with Grunt."
"Blast it." Shepard cursed. Hurrying down, he discovered several of the crew standing around Grunt's huge form, The Krogan sat on the ground tossing a glowing blue orb jerkily from one hand to another.
The Krogan looked up at Shepard. "It's cold down here. They want us, they need us to stop. The Cycle must continue."
"Grunt, snap out of it!" Shepard spoke loudly. To another crew member, he said, "Get Liara, and get that thing into stasis, ASAP." The crew member hurried off, as Shepard turned to another. "Help me get him into med bay. Chakwas will need to have a look at him."

Well, I'm going to safely assume that Legion must have been in the tiebreaker considering they decided to activate their ability in this fashion. I'm personally leaning towards the idea that we have an Evil Legion in our hands, but even if I'm wrong, we still have Liara to investigate the two players who were in the tiebreaker. We just have to hope the spies do not get to Liara tonight, which odds are they might not since she was not outed during this round. I agree with this reasoning. Assuming Liara followed this advice, she either would have investigated romice or catilina last night. I feel like catilina has been quieter than usual, so I'll vote for him and see if Liara objects.

Don't look into the shinies Gerva Welp, that's a loss. I'd rather have Grunt in the game a bit longer In other news, I'm rather fond of Crewmwmber. Can he be in every game?

Well, that sucks that gervaise bit the dust so soon , but at least we still have Liara for now. Before voting though, I want to hear from Cati and romice. If one of them is Good Legion, then one of them should have no trouble coming out and saying so, whether they've been invested by Liara or not.

Otherwise, if neither of them is Legion then that would suggest that another player stepped in to save a fellow spy and thus not only would Legion be evil but one of the survivors of the tie is as well. So as you suggest it would be in their interests to drop a bigger hint in order to avoid arousing suspicion.

Still, in two days, Liara has not objected to my vote for cati. It could mean she investigated romice and found her innocent (in which case it seems likely cati was the spy being protected), or it could mean she investigated cati and found him guilty, but doesn't want to out herself yet by voting or speaking up.

I find it difficult to believe that a good Legion would risk using his ability this early in the game, especially when chance could have saved him. I could understand doing this on a later day round, when a good Legion might have legitimate reason to suspect that some other player is a spy. But on day 1? There was just too much chance of eliminating a more useful role in favor of saving himself.
I don't buy it. I think this is catilina's attempt to cover up being evil Legion.

I'll be honest and say that I'm equally suspicious of Catilina and romice. I'm suspicious of romice due to her voting record of voting for me, then OG. And I'm suspicious of Cati due to the fact that he didn't dish out a clue or hint before activating his ability and when it became evident that he would be in a tiebreaker. When Legions surprise the Heroes by doing this, it always makes me a little suspicious.
So I'm just going to go ahead and follow dragon's vote and place my vote on Cati. This vote is not set in stone however, especially if I become even more suspicious of romice towards the end of this round. And If Liara objects due to the fact that she actually invested Cati last night, then speaking up without outing yourself is welcome.

I must admit there are a few things I find odd about Legion directing the vote to OG:
If you are a hero, surely it makes more sense to direct the vote to someone who has voted for you rather than someone in the tie with you? Chances are that everyone in the tie is a hero and the spies are among those who have voted for them.
Admittedly this wouldn't be the first time a hero has done something illogical instead of the obvious and succeeded in taking out an important role at the same time. Nevertheless, you could argue that I had acted somewhat suspiciously in changing my vote so late and widening the tie to include Cati, so it would have been understandable to have directed the votes to me.
If, as people seem to think, Legion is evil, then it makes Romice suspect too. The reason I say this is that Romice was hinting at a role that needed information if she was going to use it effectively. In fact I suspected that she might be Legion because of this. However, there are other roles that would fit this description and the spies would want eliminated, so rather than go for an unknown role in OG, it made sense to go for Romice. Of course this could also indicate that Legion is innocent because he avoided directing the votes to someone claiming an important role.
I also find it suspicious that, in view of Romice's hint, the spies didn't take her out overnight. Admittedly they might have been trying to find Liara and her hint suggested someone else, so went for me randomly in the hope of making a hit, but it is still worth thinking about going forward.

I'm actually starting to think that spy Legion might not be Cati, but someone else and they decided it would be an easy opportunity to frame me or Cati. Or it's Cati and I'm just reaching. I'll need more time to think this through.

Oh my, what a mess. To be honest, romice or Cati would be my suspects too, but without proof, I'm not sure, who to vote for. I agree, that Legion acted very suspicious and it seems, that Cati more or less outed himself as Legion. But would he do that as evil Legion? Of course, we would suspect the surviving people in the tie of that role so he might have thought that attack is the best defense. I really don't know. Am I the onyl one, who hasn't voted yet?
