Jack and Miranda from Mass Effect

You ever hated someone so much you were willing to die just to prove a point? Then you have not reached the levels of Jack and Miranda in the Mass Effect series. Sure, these two make up and become friends in Mass Effect 3’s Citadel DLC, but in Mass Effect 2, the cheerleader for human extremist group Cerberus and one of their test subjects are ready to kill each other after being forced to work together to stop a threat to humanity. When tensions reach their peak, you have to make a decision to side with one or the other (or use your persuasion points to settle the fight). If you can’t pass that stat check and have to pick one over the other, you lose their “loyalty,” which cuts off the rest of their relationship during the game and puts them at further risk of death in the game’s climactic suicide mission. Letting yourself die because your commanding officer sided with your archenemy is an incredible bit. Shoutout to both of them for untold pettiness.
