Welcome to the first video for the series. Let me help you out to understand this style of fanfiction. In this story it will be written in a way as if you were watching a YouTube or another film sharing website video. Given that context you my readers will be playing the part of the viewers. That gives you some ability to shape the story, be reviewing or PMing me as the viewer can send questions or request to her or maybe just talking to her. You can either use your fanfic name as the viewer or you can tell me the reviewer name in the review or pm cause she might have to refer to you. Hopefully that clears it up with that please enjoy.
"Hello everyone... ugh that too boring I can do better then that."
"Greeting galaxy it is nice to meet everyone on every world and... no that makes me sound pandering..."
"I am a veteran of the reaper war... woah nice way to bring down the mood."
"Umm... Bosh'tet this can't be this hard!"
"My name is Tali'Zorah vaas Normandy." Sitting there in front of the screen is a woman, you saw flashes of her attempting to do the intro. She is a Quarian a race of ex nomads who traverse the galaxy in their flotilla about 16 years ago. She wore a form fitting dark purple suit like most of her race, with a hood over her head, her visor was a lighter shade of purple with two glowing eyes being able to see. She was sitting in a room that seems to be darken, behind her is a fish tank with several different fishes slowly swimming around in the tank, she also had by the tank was a shelf full of different model ships from across the galaxy. "I am a ex admiral of the Quarian Floitilla Fleet, some of you may know of me with my adventures during the Reaper War all though years ago." Her hand moved and rubbing her arm for a moment as she glanced away.
A tough topic for many in this fledging post war galaxy, no matter what corner of the galaxy you find yourself in everyone was affect by the Reapers. "There I was apart of a crew full of my closest friends I will ever meet. In fact it was that crew that gave me this." She moved her hand around "No, not this house but my planet. Rannoch my people home world were able to gain it back during the war thanks to everyone and not just us."
The scene shows Quarians reconstructing their home world building houses and gardening but they were not alone, next to them were the Geth who were working along side the Quarian to make this world a better place.
"The Quarian and the Geth for the first time in our recorded history now stand as not only equals but as allies defenders of Rannoch. I couldn't have asked for a better outcome." There was a sadness to that as if she was remembering something.
Before returning to looking at the camera she said "So I suppose this is why I am making this video I have been lonely and sad more then I am ever willing to admit, I was told that venting out your frustration is a good thing, and I been told that recently people have been posting videos on the extranet so I thought I would give it a try." She pauses for a moment as she thinks about it "I am not fully sure what I'll be doing making these videos but for now I think I will be answering questions since I might have a interesting outlook... Keelah that makes me sound self-important doesn't it?"
Coughing a bit awkwardly she continues "I hope you know what I mean" sighing as she put her hands on her helmet for a moment before she said "I think I just need to do something, I retired from the Admiral board when it was dissolved, and with my pension and other means I never really have to work again and I wouldn't even know what do do with myself, so I thought this would keep me busy during the times when I have nothing else to do." As if she needed ot justify why she was doing this "Might give me a chance to meet new people since my old crew have scattered across the galaxy."
Gaining her confidence back she says "Yeah I think that what I do, post videos and see what people want to see I think..."
Before she would really get into it a voice called out. "Mom, were heading to school" the voice called out making Tali jump as if she was doing something wrong. Covering the camera as the door open though the camera couldn't get a good look with Tali's hand covering it. "Did you hear us mom?" The voice was obviously female.
Tali did reply now moving so her back was facing the camera keeping it block from the doorway "I did, remember I packed you lunches have fun at school you two" a softness was in her voice as she spoke.
"Ok what were you even doing it sounded like you were talking?" the female one spoke
Tali more panicked "Umm nothing dear,"
With a sight he girl spoke "Whatever, later"
"Ok by mom" next one seem to be a boys voice.
"Ok again bye you two"
After a moment of silence the video saw Tali turn around and sit back down putting her hand to her chest "Keelah" She laughs and says "Ok I should tell you guys, I'm a mother" rubbing the back of her head saying "Obviously" she continues before she says "Yeah my two darling children, my oldest I have a daughter and younger by a year is my son." She rubs her finger a bit and says "I'm a widow" That lingers for a moment as she remember something as a deep sadness was evident in her voice as she said "My well... we never could get married, never had the chance" a sob escapes her lips gasping.
"No, you Bosh'tet you told yourself you wouldn't do this" more sobs escape her lips as she whispered a name "Shepard... Shepard..."
The video cut out after that however for the viewers only second went by but who knows how long it went with Tali'Zorah "Sorry about that, well I think that is it for my first video, I promise to make a longer videos in the future this was more or less like a intro for everyone to get to know me." Though it could not be seen it obvious she was smiling "If anyone as any questions for me please feel free to ask and I will try to answer everyone if I can. Thank you for listening to this old has been" chuckling a bit as she sighs. Not fully sure how to end this video clearly not comfortable with this yet but she was trying "Thanks again for listening to me" she repeats unsure "I'll see you all in the next video."
And with that the video ended as Tali'Zorah as put herself out there on the Extranet and who knows how it will play out, that is all up to you all the viewers.
