    Summary

    There are no winners in the war against the Reapers. It only takes, and takes, and takes. For some their lives, others their humanity, and others still their entire way of living.

    But the alternative is much worse.

    Summary

    Shepard never asked to be a Spectre or a diplomat. But if that's the best way to protect humanity, she'll do her duty.
    She certainly didn't sign up for celebrity. But if her celebrity duties are listening to flattery and cuddling baby turians, that's easy. Adult turians are terrifying - who'd have thought the babies were so tiny and adorable?
    Kid, please stop hiding in my cleavage. Please go back to your daddy. Or I’ll have to undress in public to return you. Please?

    Summary

    A short one.

    The sight of her pale hand slick with his mess, unable to fully wrap against the deep blue of his thick prick, never failed to make him release an uncontrollable, ragged groan.

    Summary

    This story is mainly an experiment with writing different kinds of kinks into smut because life is too short to not enjoy some smut. There are warnings at the beginning of each smut scene, explaining what kind of kink is involved, if you're not into it, then skip to the next chapter. I do not know where I am going with this story but we dive right in so if smut is not your thing, then do not read.

    This is AU as fuck. Shepard doesn’t join the Alliance and Thane is darker and deeply lost in his battle sleep.

    Thane spares Shepard life when he mistakes her as the embodiment of the Goddess Arashu, who is the goddess of Motherhood and protection. When she is actually the embodiment the Goddess Kalahirao, the goddess of death.

    Summary

    John Shepard's last thoughts were of Tali'Zorah and a regret to not let her know how he felt. He vowed to get her to at least look at him romantically, even if he's stumbling blindly through Quarian customs and idioms.
    Alternative summary: John is pushing all of Tali's buttons and accidentally marries her in front of the Admiralty Board on a public trial, causing huge political shitstorms and shakes everything up because of course it does. Oops?

    Summary

    Three Months after the events of From The Ashes.

    Major Kaidan Alenko and Faith Shepard prepare for the biggest day of their lives, but a new faction threatens to rise up and finish what the Reapers failed to start.

    I recommend reading both Phoenix Rising (Book One) and From The Ashes (Book Two) before reading this instalment.

    Summary

    Main Pairing: Shenko.

    A month after the events of Phoenix Rising, Major Kaidan Alenko remains in command of the Normandy, while the crew find a way to bring Commander Shepard back from the brink.

    Although Shepard's memories have returned, she's faced with a new dilemma.

    The war with the Reapers is over, but a new fight lies just on the Horizon with the return of an old friend.

    Highly recommend reading Phoenix Rising to understand the context of this story.

    Summary

    Jane Shepard survives the gutters of a post‑Contact Earth until a flare of emerging biotics pulls her into a Council‑funded research institute on the Citadel. There she meets Spectre Saren Arterius, the turian legend whose stalled hunt for Dr. Qian’s Prothean relic drives him to other means of staunching humanity's advancement: guardianship of the human prodigy. Through shrewd persuasion, he takes on the orphan as his ward, intent on shaping her into a model Spectre for Council display, even as he grips the unseen reins in his talons.

    Saren turns her childhood days into field drills, war‑room simulations, and lessons in diplomatic knife‑work. He controls nearly every aspect of her life, leaving Shepard one private refuge: a risky friendship with hot‑headed cadet Garrus Vakarian — until her almost-father severs that, too. Learning what it means to be a person proves harder than functioning as a tool, yet Shepard can't help but to question her identity. When the long‑silent Reapers finally stir, Shepard must decide whether she is Saren’s instrument, the Alliance’s champion, or something forged in the tight space between obedience and revolt. The galaxy’s stance — kneeling or standing — will turn on her choice.

    Summary

    What exactly was the “research” Garrus did to prepare for Shepard…

    Mid-Mass Effect 2 fanfiction focusing on Garrus and Female Shepard's relationship and what their squadmates think about the situation. I wrote this to scratch the itch of "no one has any comment on this turian-human situation? Really?"

    Summary

    All that was preventing Shepard and Vakarian from becoming friends was his arrogance, his immaturity and his inability to shut up. Starts early in Mass Effect, during the "Expose Saren" mission. Rated M for language. Bioware owns all/legal boilerplate blah blah blah.

    I have a new beta, BubblegumQuasar, but sometimes I ignore her wise counsel. Any typos, questionable word choices or stylistic flubs are mine, all mine.

    Oh, and uh, Happy N7 day!
