The second installment in Compromise Who I Am, a Mass Effect trilogy novelization. This piece covers the events of Mass Effect 2, as seen through Shepard's eyes.
This series includes a slow-burn romance with Garrus and an in-depth explorarion of Commander Shepard. Some dialogue is lifted directly from the game and expanded upon, but this story will mostly be filling in the gaps and exploring a struggling Shepard who finds herself now carrying the weight of an entire universe's future on her shoulders.
Tagged side characters are prominently featured and explored. Specific content warnings are listed within chapters.

Summary
After the fall of the Netherbrain, Tav's home in Baldur's Gate was destroyed and Gale offers his tower as a temporary place for her to rest and heal. A very slow-burn romance starts to bloom, while Tav (named Iluviel) struggles to be ready after the things Astarion did to her.
~
Lots of D&D lore and (mostly canonical) Waterdeep worldbuilding went into this fic that follows both Gale and Iluviel through their daily lives inside and outside of the wizard's tower.

Readers said about this fic: "This fic has had me in a chokehold from Day 1. The most deliciously slowest of slow burns, yet with enough intensity and cliffhangers to keep me racing back to it as soon as a new chapter alert comes out. The world-building that has happened in this fic surpasses just about all of the other fics I've read to date, with the imagery and scenery so beautifully written I could imagine myself sitting right in the kitchen along with Gale, Tara, and Iluviel, dodging pots and pans 😁"

Summary
Back from the dead, Shepard is thrust back into the driver's seat, leading the charge against the Collectors and the Reapers while the rest of the galaxy questions her sanity and the validity of the threats against them - just like old times.
ME2 Novelization - I started going AU in part one, Do The Impossible, so if you're just jumping in, some things won't make sense unless you've read the first installment.
Former Kaiden/Fem Shep romance although it didn't get quite that far in Do The Impossible.
Colony background, both the war hero profile as well as the ruthless profile
Shep was a soldier through and through for Do The Impossible - but all that is about to change.

- Part 2 of No Pressure
