Juliette Has A Gun by chouettetc
Fandoms: Mass Effect Trilogy, Mass Effect - All Media Types

Summary
She's the Alliance's best spy and secret weapon. He's the one of the Council's newest Spectres and ex-Blackwatch operative. And if they don't manage to cause the next intergalactic incident from this assignment, they should both be showered in accolades from the Council.
But intergalactic cooperation is never that simple, is it?
Steamy, poignant, and full of action, this fic explores the darker and more complex version of female Shepard in a spy AU, and the space boyfriend we all know and love.
This is my first fic, but I've been dreaming of a spy thriller in the Mass Effect world for SO long. Can't wait to share this version of our reluctant, redheaded hero with you <3 .

Summary
Jeff Moreau just wanted to get out of the Academy and fly among the stars. It didn’t matter where he went, or how he got there—he knew he’d be proving himself for the rest of his life regardless. A year in, and everything was going to plan, until someone stumbled in and refused to leave. Like a guiding star, Ashe Shepard was a woman worth following, and Jeff found himself plotting every course in reference to her. He might bear an Alliance rank, but he’ll always be Shepard’s pilot above all else. Other’s may gladly fly her into hell, but Joker would be the only one to risk everything to bring her home.
Ashe Shepard didn’t ask for her scars, but she would bear them for the rest of her life. It was easy to find oneself adrift among the stars, yet she found herself an anchor in the maelstrom. Ashe might take on the galaxy, but Joker was always there to be her safe harbour amidst the blood and the chaos. When the day comes where she must stand on the precipice, Ashe will do whatever it takes to ensure Joker doesn’t fall with her into oblivion. He might be her pilot, but it’s her duty to bring him home to peaceful shores.
Canon-related AU starting at the Academy in 2173.

Summary
Shepard went down with his ship, only to wake two years later and find out the love of his life had gone down, too. Or so he thinks.
~
Like a knife he’d forgotten is there, Shepard’s heart clenches painfully. He swallows the lump in his throat. This is not the place to break down.“Don’t think you can’t talk about him around me,” Shepard says, which is the exact opposite of how he feels at the moment. “I wasn’t the only one he meant something to.”
“I know,” Joker replies, shrugging. “But you two were like...” He waves a hand awkwardly to empathize his point.
Practically married. Ashley had said.

Oath of loyalty by etherealend
Fandoms: Mass Effect Trilogy, Mass Effect - All Media Types
07 Nov 2025
Tags
Summary
Loyalty: a notion that had always gravitated around Garrus’ life.
“I am loyal to him, as he is loyal to me. And isn’t this the greatest form of love?” Her mother, as the good turian she was, used to say with regard to Castis.
Loyalty. During childhood, boot camp, military service. Loyalty: a virtue every turian was supposed to possess from birth, to the Hierarchy, first and foremost.
Garrus had always, secretly, disagreed. It was something to be earned.
And with her, such had been.
Commander Shepard had secured his deepest loyalty, and only when he saw her for the last time, before the Normandy SR-1 was taken down, did he understand how right his mother was. -
