When We Were Normal

by CarolineESOA

A collection of shorts set between and beyond the events of See You Around and Finding Me, showing the important moments in the lives of the crew of the Normandy and their friends after the Reaper War. Reading FM and SYA isn't necessary for the most part. Latest Short: The day before Riina's wedding, she decides it's time to finally fix things with her sister.

AN: Every chapter of this fic is going to be a one-shot surrounding the characters of my fics See You Around and Finding Me. They will probably all take place in the years between the two fics and won't be in chronological order. A lot of what goes on might not make sense if you haven't read See You Around but I'm going to try and write it so that isn't the case.

This contents page will give you a brief description of the one-shot, a list of main characters and whether or not you have to have read See You Around for it to make sense.

Hope you enjoy!
