"I will fall in love with you...over and over again."

Benezia and Councilor Tevos are brokering a deal with the Alliance: galactic respect and an appointment of the first human Spectre in exchange for Alliance protection of some asari interests. One of those interests being Matriarch Benezia's daughter, Liara, on a dig site on the fringes of Council Space.
In which the Reapers don't exist, but fate still manages to bring two people together. Or, the beautiful slow(ish) burn AU I've been imagining for years.
