Summary
A Shakarian romance that goes above & beyond (or at least before & after) what we were given in the games. Some canon, some AU - the characters don't always follow the arc they were given. This is my take on my favorite romance. Enjoy!
This story continues in my other works!
**MATURE CONTENT WARNING** Check the tags. Graphic sex, graphic violence, character death.
Title inspired the theme and was inspired by the song from The Greatest Showman.
**I own nothing!**

Summary
The galaxy is settling in to post-war life and the impacts of Synthesis. While an anti-synthesis movement is gaining momentum, Garrus and Cassidy Shepard are facing some unexpected implications of Synthesis themselves. Yes, this is a pregnancy fic.
Technically a sequel to Damn the Odds, but I'll do my best to make this readable as a stand-alone if you just want to enjoy this on its own.

Summary
The Reapers have been defeated, but survival isn’t always easy. Garrus and Shepard have to put themselves and their lives back together, and the stakes might just be higher than ever.
This work is not as linear as the others. The narrative jumps around a little, following events more than a specific timeline the way you’re used to from the other works. CW/TW: dark themes, dark moments, graphic description of injury, graphic description of mental illness
Obviously, this is a bit AU, post-canon. ***You will not understand most of this/the relationships if you don’t read the previous works in the series. This is NOT a standalone.***
Title and theme inspired by the James Morrison song (thank you, Schitt’s Creek).
Endless gratitude goes to my betas. This never would have happened without you giving me the courage.

Excerpt
I looked around and had trouble finding the mods, so I looked back at Jacob. “Any mods?”“Not at this station.” He answered and I sighed frustrated.
“Right. Shitty choices it is, then. From what I learned from your logs, Cerberus has all the credits in the galaxy, and you can’t even afford any decent choices for weapons? That’s pitiful, if anything.” I pointed out through my frustration.
