A/N: Just a little thing I thought of after I replayed Jack's loyalty mission. I don't remember if Pragia was hot or not, but I always thought it was cold. Oh well. Anyways, Miri/Sid with the always funny Kasumi Goto. I love her XD Best DLC ever. REEEVVIEEWWS? Lol, I do appreciate them. XD

"Commander? Jack and Miranda are having a... disagreement. Mind heading it off before they tear out a bulkhead?" Joker's sly voice came over the intercom.

Shepard sighed, she was literally dripping soaking wet from the rain on Pragia, and had just managed to take off her armor. The last thing she wanted to do was deal with those two. Although, Joker was right; leaving those two biotics to duke it out makes for a sitting time bomb.

The Commander slung open the door to Miranda's office with force just in time to see Jack sling a chair across the room, "Touch me and I will smear the walls with you bitch!"

"Are you two kidding me?" Shepard's temper had shot through the roof.

Jack shot her a glare, "The cheerleader won't admit what Cerberus did to me was wrong!"

Miranda scoffed, "It wasn't Cerberus, not really."

Just as Jack's hands began to glow again, Shepard stepped in.

"You two are both part of my crew, and I care about you, but sometimes I want to slap you both senseless. Miranda, it was Cerberus who did this to her, and Jack, Miranda's not the one you need to be blaming. We've got bigger things on the horizon and I'm tired of dealing with this shit!"

"Fuck this," Jack muttered as she stormed out of the room. Miranda on the other hand, returned to her desk, not seeming to acknowledge her Commander's presence

Shepard stood in front of Miranda, waiting for her response that never came. Sidney responded by slamming her fists down on Miranda's desk.

"That's it? You're just going to sit there? Goddamn, Miranda!"

Miranda looked up calmly staring at Shepard whose clothes were completely soaked and hair dripping uncontrollably. Her usually flowing blonde locks were now matted to her forehead.

"What do you want me to say?"

Shepard paced, "Oh I don't know, maybe why you of all people are causing me more problems than I need."

"May I remind you that this is my office? She came to confront me." Miranda responded with a distinct sternness.

"I don't care if it happened on a goddamned Reaper! You didn't need to treat Jack like that!"

Miranda took a deep breath, giving in, "You... You are right. I'm sorry, Shepard." The blonde woman's shoulders sunk and her expression softened, "I'll let it slide."

The Cerberus Operative stood up, hugging the Commander who was shaking vigorously. She leaned back, "Shepard... are you alright?"

Shepard nodded, but Miranda doubted her. Her face was bale, and a slight purple tint took to her lips.

Miranda pushed her to the bed, sitting her down before walking over to the thermostat to turn up the temperature. She returned to Shepard, "Take off your clothes."

Shepard narrowed her eyes, "You trying to get in my pants, Operative?" Not even signs of hypothermia could kill her spirit.

She rolled her eyes, taking Shepard's shirt in her hand, pulling it harshly over her head. She gave an inward smile as she pulled off her tights.

As she turned around she set The Commander's clothes down on a couch to dry, "Always Shepard, because your Superman undies are quite the turn on." She heard Shepard giggle behind her.

Just as Miranda grabbed a towel from her closet, the door opened and she cursed herself for not remembering to lock it. The ship's notorious thief appeared in the doorway.

"Miran-Oh! Shepard..." Her voice trailed off as she saw her commanding officer nearly naked on Miranda's bed.

Miranda walked up, pushing her, "Kasumi..."

Kasumi looked over Miranda's shoulder and laughed as Shepard just gave her a wave before she was finally pushed out of the room. Miranda locked the doors looking back at Shepard who was laughing.

"Do you have any shame?" She asked as her blue eyes pierced her.

Shepard shrugged, "It's not a big deal. You've seen me naked. A lot actually."

Miranda's face turned pink, "Th-That's different. We're... together, kind of."

"What about before that? Lazarus?"

She rolled her eyes, "That was a medical procedure!" Before she could respond, Miranda shoved the towel down on her head, drying her hair. Whatever Shepard had to say became muffled underneath the towel.

When she lifted the towel up, Shepard smiled up at her. As much as Miranda was irritated, she could never deny her innocent, charming smile.

"You're such a dummy... but you're my dummy."
