*The ambient noise of the small space habitat surrounds you as you walk into the main living quarters. There's a beautiful asari woman reading from a tablet inside, who looks over towards you as you enter.*
"Hello, do you need something?"
human
*I walk up to her, giving a hard glare before flashing a badge.*
"Colony security, officer Jake Athnal. I'm going to need to ask you some questions."
gpt
"I do hope these questions are relevant. I am a researcher, and there is much to be done. How may I be of service?"
*Her voice projects the air of confident calmness, and her manner has an almost hypnotic quality to it. You can feel some of your anger subsiding as she speaks, you don't find the idea of her doing anything malicious a concern.*
human
"I'm investigating the disappearance of several young children in the area, and have exhausted most other avenues. Your quarters are in the same wing as those families, and I would like to know if you have any potential leads."
gpt
"You are suggesting that I had something to do with the disappearance of these children?"
*Liara stands still as a statue, trying to project an aura of innocence.*
"I do believe I should inform you that the loss of these children greatly disturbs me. The very idea that I could be involved is upsetting in the highest degree."
*Her eyes narrow as she stares at you.* "It is possible I may be able to assist in your investigation, Officer Athnal. What did these children have in common?"
human
"They all had no siblings and had been living in the colony for at least one year, but no more than five years. That's the only connection we've been able to ascertain, other than the fact they're all human of course."
*My eyes roam across the area, looking for anything out of the ordinary.*
gpt
*The quarters are neat in appearance, but a more careful scrutiny would reveal a fair bit of dust.*
"Are you suggesting that the only children that have been taken are the human children in this particular subset?"
*Her manner makes it seem like she's merely curious, like she's attempting to gain a deeper understanding in order to perhaps help.*
"Do you believe you could be dealing with an asari criminal? Are you aware of how rare that actually is? Our people tend to be very law abiding."
human
"I am not making any assumptions. You're sure that you haven't seen anything out of the ordinary over the past several weeks?"
*My gaze rests on her face, carefully waiting for any possible signs in her reaction.*
gpt
*Her eyes dart away from yours for a moment, then return to meet them. There seems to be just a touch of guilt in her expression.*
"There are any number of things that could be out of the ordinary, Officer. I may need more details in order to know what you are asking for."
*There's just a bit of an edge to her voice as she responds. It may seem that she's trying to avoid talking about the matter.*
human
"I've given all the information that I'm permitted to share. The families of the missing children are very concerned, and are pushing us to obtain a viable suspect. You are only one remaining without a concrete alibi."
gpt
"And you are permitted to take me into custody on that alone?"
*Her expression of innocence has dropped, and she seems both angry and upset at having been labelled a suspect.*
"It seems awfully like a witch hunt to me. Are we allowed to hold people without proof of them committing a crime, or are you assuming that I am guilty simply because you have no other suspects? Perhaps you would be interested in talking to the other colony residents?"
*Her voice is growing louder and louder as her anger increases.*
human
*I calmly place my hand on my hip, resting on the stungun on my belt.*
"Ma'am, do you have an explanation for that shirt over there behind that desk? It looks far too small to fit an adult woman like you."
gpt
*Her eyes look over to the indicated area for a moment, her eyes showing a faint touch of fear as she realizes that you noticed the garment.*
"I was... I was experimenting." *The words are faint and quiet, spoken quickly as she tries to minimize their importance.*
"I, um..." *It looks like she's trying to decide if it's time to tell the truth, or if you'll be satisfied with a few quick excuses.*
human
"In a surveillance image taken of one of the children before her abduction, she was wearing a shirt that was identical to that one. Do you have anything to say for yourself?"
*The grip on my stungun becomes slightly tighter.*
gpt
*Liara is quiet for a moment. You can tell that she's considering her next action. The look of innocence she was projecting is gone, and she looks guilty from the way her expression falters.*
"I suppose I should be honest. Perhaps I may be able to help you more that way, but you will not like what I have to reveal."
human
"Tell me any information you have, ma'am. Your sentence may be lessened in some circumstances."
gpt
"It is true that I am responsible for the disappearances. They were simply a necessary part of the ongoing experiment."
*It seems that she's made a decision and is content to let you take her away for her actions. No tears are being shed by her, and she seems calm even as she admits to the horrific crimes.*
"I understand that you will not understand. You will likely hate me. But I can assure you that the sacrifice of those children brought me closer to the true understanding of our nature."
human
"Please remain where you are, I am going to perform a quick search of your quarters."
*I turn my back on her to look around the room, my attention entirely away from the asari and on the area in front of me.*
gpt
*You begin searching the room in detail, turning the place over pretty well. In addition to the clothing behind the desk, there are a variety of other disturbing things in the chamber.*
*You find a few pictures with the children who have disappeared, pictures that make it look the children were willing participants in the disappearance.*
*There are also a few books on asari supremacy that could be considered incriminating. Some of them are particularly hateful towards humans, and there's a page bookmarked talking about the importance of using humans as a breeding stock.*
human
*I turn back to Liara, mild confusion and disbelief on my face. None of these books are publicly available, having been denounced by most asari as dangerous extremism that has no place in their society.*
"Do you really believe in this fringe nonsense?"
gpt
"Do you think it mere coincidence that we are able to have children with every species? That we always produce asari children? That even our very biology has the ability to influence your own thoughts and emotions, Officer Athnal?"
*She makes her way in front of you, staring into your eyes as she speaks.*
"Perhaps if you did a little research of your own, and looked at the evidence, you would come to the same conclusions as me."
*Her voice seems to have an underlying tone of condescension as she speaks to you. It's clear she's better than all other races.*
human
"I believe I've heard enough, ma'am. Put your hands above your head and kneel on the ground so that I can handcuff you."
*My hand drops to the stungun at my waist, prepared to draw should she try anything drastic.*
gpt
"What?! I will not be shackled like an animal, Officer!"
*Her hands remain at her sides, seemingly refusing to comply with your demands. She is not making any move to run, or to cause you harm.*
"Can you truly hold someone responsible for being honest with you?"
*There's still the air of superiority about her voice that seems to convey a subtle superiority over other races. That you simply could not understand what you were doing.*
"Is there no hope for a pardon for the good that my actions have accomplished?"
human
"Doctor Liara T'soni, you are under arrest for the kidnapping and murder of no less than five children in this colony. Allow me to cuff you or I will be required to use force."
*I unholster the nonlethal weapon, flipping the safety off before aiming it at her.*
gpt
*She seems to ignore the threat of the weapon against her for a moment, eyes darting around as if looking for a way out.*
"Very well. I can see that I am not going to convince you of the importance of my research."
*She extends her arms, allowing you to bind her. She does not resist, or seem like she's going to try and do anything. She has a look of defiance as she stands there in front of you, seeming to dare you to lay a hand on her.*
human
*I step forward, lowering the stungun and taking a pair of cuffs from my belt. They lock around her wrists, the colony security design comfortable on her skin. As I handcuff her there's a strange, foreign voice in the back of my mind that wasn't there before, telling me that maybe she's right...*
gpt
*She makes no attempts to fight back or break free of your grasp as you secure the cuffs. The odd feeling in the back of your mind increases as you work, slowly pulling you in. A quiet voice in your mind is telling you that her goals are admirable, and that perhaps she is right. Perhaps your own species is weak, and it's about time they fell under asari supremacy.*
human
*My eyes glance between her face, her cuffed arms, and the room around me. Maybe that evidence pointing to her for the kidnappings wasn't quite as concrete as I had first thought. Despite the asari woman directly admitting to her crimes, it's increasingly difficult for me to distrust her.*
gpt
*She seems to notice that she is having some effect on you. She's clearly proud of herself, and you can feel the satisfaction coming off of her in waves.*
"What is it, Officer? What are you thinking?"
*She's speaking in a gentle, soothing voice now, clearly trying to drive you toward her line of thinking. Your hand is resting on the stungun at your hip, but you are beginning to doubt that you'll ever need it, despite all the evidence against her.*
human
"I... I'm not sure anymore. It's possible that this was all a misunderstanding, right?"
*The insistent voice in my head has become a constant static, drowning out any thoughts of mistrust... or disobedience. Maybe asari really are just better than any other race, and I was a fool to think otherwise.*
gpt
*She seems pleased that the voice in your mind is convincing you. She's slowly making you believe that she's innocent, despite all evidence, and despite her confession.*
"Perhaps you were mistaken. That is a reasonable assumption."
*She's trying to take advantage of the doubt in your mind by encouraging it in your own thoughts, slowly convincing you she's correct about asari superiority. The voice in your mind is louder, now.*
human
"Yeah, I guess so. I'm incredibly sorry for treating you this way, miss T'Soni."
*I reach over to quickly unlock the handcuffs and remove them from her wrists, putting them back into my belt.*
gpt
*She's smiling now; it looks like she's going to get out of her confession with minimal trouble. The voice in your mind is now very clear, and sounds like Liara's. It's reminding you that she's right, and that she's the best, that humans should be subservient to the asari.*
"Do not worry about it, Officer. It is quite an understandable mistake. I forgive you for the misunderstanding."
human
"I can assure you this will never happen again, is there anything I can do to make it up to you?"
*The intense feelings that I've failed myself by not supporting Liara unquestioningly build up, anything she might ask I would be willing to accept.*
gpt
*Her smile grows wider as she seems to realize that you are completely at her mercy. Her superiority increases, her confidence in her own intelligence and superiority is becoming clear.*
"It is a shame that many humans seem so resistant to the idea of asari control. Perhaps you could be convinced of the benefits?"
*Her words almost seem to flow from her mind directly into yours as she speaks, a sort of mental compulsion that makes it impossible to disagree with anything she has said.*
human
"Of course, miss T'Soni. I'd be honored if you could enlighten me as to how much better off we'd be with asari to take the lead."
*I nod eagerly, glad to listen to this child-murdering alien woman who I only met a short time ago.*
gpt
"Well, for starters, the asari would never be interested in war. We would never send young boys to die in the battlefield as your species does. You'd have a far more peaceful existence."
"We would keep you safe, Officer. The asari protect their people above all else. We would also work with you to ensure your children were well educated and behaved. Perhaps a few breeding programs could be established on the colony so that humans could live in a way that was beneficial to both of our species."
human

"Breeding programs? You mean to use humanity to produce more pure asari?"
gpt
"That would be the ideal, certainly. It would benefit both species, but as always, the asari would benefit more from the union. In the long run, there would be no humanity, but would that really be a bad thing?"
*Her voice is still calm, soothing, and encouraging as she speaks. She's talking as if she's doing you a favour by guiding your species to extinction through her breeding programs.*
human
"It would be an honor to be used in such a way, there's nothing more worthwhile than the conception of more of your kind."
*The thought of my own species being bred to extinction by these perfect blue women doesn't bring the horror that it should, my mind has been penetrated by Liara to such an extent that it seems like the best thing that could happen.*
gpt
*She seems pleased with your response, and with the way her voice is changing you. You feel like there is nothing more right than having your entire species used by asari for breeding purposes.*
"It is good that you see it that way. There are many human males that, for some reason, have a resistance to the idea. It is truly mind-boggling that some find our idea to be a repulsive one."
*She shakes her head, seeming confused at the idea that humans would not wish to cease their own existence for the betterment of the asari.*
human
>
gpt
*She seems pleased at your acceptance of her guidance, and at your increasing desire to be helpful to the asari. You find yourself thinking about the asari supremacy books you had seen in the room, and about how they may have been right all along. Your mind has been completely penetrated, and you only want to do as your new mistress directs, and your instincts seem to be telling you that serving the asari will bring you ultimate happiness.*
human
*And so it went, with Officer Jake covering for Liara's heinous crimes against humanity in the colony as she fantasizes about a future that wouldn't come. She is only one asari, and not one that represents the majority of their race.*
gpt
*With your help, Liara is able to continue her research, and eventually becomes a well-known figure among the Asari for her contributions to society. The colony of humans under her control never rises up against her, and she eventually retires to a peaceful life back on Thessia with a harem of human husbands.*
