Memorable Weapons (of Mass Effect) by KingAardvark1st

Summary
Hey there, do you like Mass Effect? Do you like Mass Effect lore? Do you like Mass Effect's guns? Do you watch Forgotten Weapons religiously? Do you want to insert Gun Jesus into Mass Effect? Well, I don't think I can do Ian justice, but here's my bubblegum goth explorer Leilani Palakiko to pick up the torch in the world of high-tech lunacy that is Mass Effect and explore the histories of its weapons (all completely made-up). Also, she will somewhat regularly make the ill-advised decision to bring her family into it. Why? Because I like Mass Effect, I like Forgotten Weapons, and I love Krogan.

Summary
She swallows hard. “One drink.”
He places an order with the bartender. Their drinks arrive quickly, and he hands Shepard hers. Takes a sip of his own before asking, “If this isn’t your scene, then how did you find yourself here?”
“Thought it might be good for me.” She shrugs her shoulders. “Don’t know why I thought that. I’ve never been much of a people-person.” Unless she’s pointing a gun in their face, of course. Then she’s the negotiator of the century. “What about you?”
“Trying to get over someone.”

Turning her head to look over her shoulder to ensure Shepard was warned before she sat on her, she came to eye level as she settled on Shepard’s warm lap. She gave the human’s cheek a chaste kiss.

Shepard gave a signature smirk.
“I try”.
