    Summary

    Unrequited love is so complicated when it isn't truly unrequited but neither person knows. You know what else is complicated? Dying and being brought back to life. Tara Shepard is navigating life after death on the Normandy SR-2 while -- once again -- trying to save the galaxy. At least she has Joker, right? But Jeff Moreau is also trying to navigate his life after Tara's death and it is much harder than he imagined it might be.

    To the Stars is set during ME2 and will continue through ME3. Somewhat canon compliant, but will likely deviate more than not. There aren't any really heavy triggers in this, mostly just sad and angst and eventual happiness.

    I have only played through these games twice; so bear with me as I explore these characters and continue to replay ME repeatedly.

    Summary

    After the war, Shepard and Garrus are separated by the vastness of space and the inconvenience of a destroyed comms relay system.

    While they both struggle to reunite, they resort to sending each other messages in the hopes that one day they'll be delivered.

    Complete.

    Summary

    Shepard was dead. Half the crew was dead. And Joker was alive. Alive and useless.

    Quick intermission, showing how exactly did Joker end up with the Cerberus, where are his crutches and why is his eye twitching every time someone uses the cloaking tech beside him.

    Summary

    His legs were still aching from therapy, from walking, but the pain was grounding. The galaxy finally started to shift back in place. Two years of ghosts, of pain, and finally—here. In the pilot seat of the new ship. The fact that they were technically under the command of a terrorist organization? With Shepard back—figures.

    But Joker isn’t just watching anymore. He is reclaiming his life, piece by piece, wondering if he can stop Shepard before she tears herself down.

    This is a Star Decay AU (featuring original Karpyshyn story), so far following the original ME2 canon.

    Summary

    Jeff Moreau is not a people person, and likes it that way. Until he meets Commander Georgia Shepard, who has a way of getting under people's skin, and who makes it her goal to befriend him. Nothing could prepare them for the upcoming Reaper threat, but what neither of them saw coming, might be something a bit more *personal* than an ancient, invading, alien species.

    This story covers events in ME1, in it's entirety. Depending on how much I love/hate it, may continue into ME2!

    Summary

    Jane Shepard is a bounty hunter with a past she'd prefer to put behind her. A chance encounter with C-sec officer Garrus Vakarian presents her with an opportunity too good to pass up. Partnering up to allow Shepard better intel, and Garrus a chance at bringing in criminals outside the limits of C-sec's red tape, Shepard eventually finds herself confronting a ghost from her past, and unwittingly falling for the plucky young C-sec agent.

    Summary

    When Joker falls in love with Shepard and Kaidan, he falls fast and with his whole heart. But they’re busy saving the galaxy and falling for each other, and that doesn’t leave much room for a third, love-sick wheel. And that’s okay. That’s the world as it should be. Joker’s as much realist as he is romantic.

    But then everything falls apart. War rewrites the rules. Blurs the line between duty and desire. And Joker finds himself caught in something messy, tender and unapologetically spicy, and so much more than he ever expected to have.

    *

    A love story filled with snark and feelings, and a duo becoming a trio. Also, taking minor liberties with canon out of a deep commitment to keeping it horny.

    Summary

    On the final test flight of the SSV Normandy, the pilot the Alliance they hired isn’t in his chair and the commander isn’t responding.

    A take on the Mass Effect comic, He Who Laughs, if Shepard was on board for Joker’s joyride.

    Summary

    Vorgoth notices Rook's spirit is maladjusted and offers to help.
    "WE ARE CERTAIN. WE MUST SEE ALL. BARE YOURSELF."
    (I have no idea how to tag this, but you can pick your pronouns and you can pick your body parts, to a degree. So if you pick vagina it's vaginal penetration, if you pick penis it's anal, if you pick the third option it's left a bit more vague so you can imagine whatever you want. Either way, Rook is on the receiving end.)

    Jeff Moreau has always fought twice as hard to gain the same amount of respect as his fellow officers. He didn't expect to have that in common with a biotic with a famous last name.

    Summary

    After being revived by Cerberus, Shepard is not quite the stable commander that Joker remembers, and he's surprised to find himself helping her pick up the pieces. Follows ME2 with a focus on the interstitial non-mission bits.

    Summary

    Dec. 29, 2022: Rewritten, expanded, and alive!
    In this war, there's no where safe to flee to — just one very fast ship, her (in)famous Commander, her ace pilot, and all the people they collect. Sequel to A Star to Steer Her By. This gets dark because war is dark, but we're here to kick reaper ass, not settle for a sucky ending.

    Joker could feel the furtive glances as he and Rhi stepped out into the CIC. It wasn’t the same as when he’d made that long walk before, limping past the all-too-able-bodied flight crew. No feeling of self-consciousness now. Just tension, flickering from person to person, and Rhi — Shepard — in the middle like a grounding rod.

    Shit, they even looked at him as if he knew what to do.

    The reapers were here. The criminals, vindicated.

    Man, it sucks being right.

    Joker had been given a second chance and he didn't waste it. Now he had something so precious it seemed like a dream. He promised to always be there, it was a promise he intended to keep. Bioware owns everything Mass Effect, I'm just adding bits.
