Specialist Samantha Traynor, one of the Alliance's best and brightest, was relatively content working in Alliance R&D. But then... the Reapers came.

Ch 31: Sam suffers through PT but creates a better way to have deeper conversations with Shepard.

He'd worshiped her from afar, always wanted the chance to say hello, maybe to serve under her. Then his mission had gone horribly wrong and he blamed her, resented her for it. Or did he. James Vega finds himself in a position he never expected and has to come to terms with his own pain and doubt. Bioware owns all thing Mass Effect, I'm just playing in their sandbox.

LT Nathan Briggs was on his way to N school before being transferred to Alliance HQ in Vancouver, on guard duty. Commander Shepard was probably one of the last people in the galaxy he wanted to meet. My take on ME3. Rated M for language, violence and suggestive themes. Also will contain some major character death.

The reapers hit earth and thrust Commander Jane Shepard back into the line of duty. The stress of being the galaxies only hope weighs heavily on her mind, causing her to come close to a mental break down. The ever humorous Comm. Specialist Samantha Traynor walks off the elevator and into Shepard's life, proving to be her saving grace. (more summary in chapter ones author note)

Life is too short to take everything seriously. Commander Shepard doesn't seem to be getting this idea, but Jeff Moreau would swear by it. When she ends up assigned to his ship, they don't know how they'll ever get along. Each chapter is 500 words and based off a one-word prompt.

With the defences around Arcturus breached and the homeworlds of the strongest races under siege, what hope remains? One man faces the oncoming storm. The Reapers will know defeat. They will know fear. They will know Commander Shepard.

The sequel to Warrior Ethos, this is a retelling of ME2. It has ManShep x Tali and FemShep x Garrus, and is designed to be very realistic, etc. A little bit AU.

Starting at ME1 and working my way up. May or may not follow canon in some parts. I welcome your comments and I hope you enjoy this journey! Bioware owns it all...except Sercy. She's mine.

Somewhat altered Mass Effect 1-3 and beyond. FemShep is creeped out by Kaidan, dreams of Garrus. Rating changed to M, because of sexual content. They are married in 2. She can't resist a cat.

The public persona of Commander Shepard is a myth: unbreakable, undeniable, unstoppable. In truth, she's a human being who needs someone, just as much as the galaxy needs her. Jeff "Joker" Moreau has confidence in his flying skills, and little else. Can these two emotionally-impaired soldiers find happiness with one another? *Cover art used with permission of blackdragon21*
