Trying to work on this, but AC is out and of course work is hectic. Most likely to get done on my next vacation in mid August.

This is the *VERY ROUGH* and not AT ALL FINAL outline I'm working from.

Shep/Li with Branson and Udina

Meeting also has Ahern and Hackett (in person), Dragunov and Dularis (on comms) and several BuPers people
Dragunov has already had comms from Udina about Branson and says for Branson to immediately get on a SA ship headed to Sol.
Branson states he is High Admiral. Comm screen cuts on. Duke Chu says he has been relieved of command and is to return home immediately.
Shepard is impatient to get on with it.
Dragunov lays out what SA military is willing to offer: a unit of DACT for the Broker assault, and four troop ships (mostly volunteers) as well as some AIS support in attack on Collectors.
In return, Dragunov wants (????) from Shepard
Shep and Liara discussion
Shepard talks with Chu, Dragunov, Ahern
SA agrees to assist as long as Shepard stays out of their operations

Shep still awaiting Council response, is greeted by Imperial guard inviting her and Liara to dinner and meeting with Augur

Shep comms Okeer. Okeer recommends going along. Augur is very highly placed and this sort of thing is almost never done.
Shep then gets TTL from Senator Adkins, stating he'd also like to meet with her. She mentions the batarian thing and he states it would be convenient if they were all there at once
Shepard is confused. Adkins indicates he knows who gave Shepard the intel from the Black Network and all questions will be answered at this meeting/dinner

Other members:

Kai, Pel, and Exy go to bar to talk.
Jacob, Zaeed and Cerberus guard unit go to restaurant, Kasumi shows up and they talk
Mirala and Jack wander away from the rest since no one wants to hang out with them
Minsta discusses things with Okeer.
