    Summary

    Blaming himself, Joker considers working with Cerberus more of a way to avoid dealing with his grief than as a chance to see Shepard again. When he's spent two years burying himself in the details of her first life, how can he face her again when the Lazarus project actually does work?

    "Joker would lay in bed at night, mentally going over the inventory of each item. Every piece of clothing. Every trinket. Bits of her uniform, scattered clues of her life. Why did she have a well-thumbed book of poetry with underlined passages, why this souvenir Elcor toy - with a shirt that said ‘Somebody on the Citadel Loves Me”. What had she thought about, laying in her bunk at night, figuring out how to save the entire galaxy against it’s fucking will."
