Stranded and against the Collectors, they fight for life. And each other. Tali/Shepard Pairing. AU. Intro to Dark Matter Theory. New approach to Collectors. Prequel to The End of Dawn.

Speeches, farewells, denials, howls of grief and of rage. Those that knew Shepard in life remember the Commander in death. Shepard's gender and any interpretations of romance are intentionally ambiguous and left up to you. Disclaimer: Reading these shorts whilst listening to "An End for Once and For All" carries with it a heavy risk of tears.

Sequel to And the Meek Shall Inherit the Galaxy. On hiatus while author recovers from medical emergency.

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. You don't need to read the first story, but it helps. It uses Calinstel's ideas on the quarian culture. Focuses more on the relationships and less on the missions. The information page is a separate story of mine.

The galactic media catches wind of Shepard and Tali's relationship. How will they react? Features quasi-news stories written from different perspectives. Takes place sometime after the reclamation of Rannoch in Mass Effect 3. Rated T for suggestive themes and language.

The final act unravels, bringing only destruction. Still, John and Tali have each other to hold on to.

This story directly continues the unfinished series "To Survive", by Calinstel, with his consent. John Shepard continues to prepare for the coming Reaper threat.

A fanfic series focusing on Shepard and Tali's friendship, romance, and love, spanning Mass Effect 1 through speculative Mass Effect 3.

Listened to sad music, drew a sad Jack. Then I realized that I now had thought up a story to go with the picture, so I wrote this. MShep/Jack romance, Destroy Ending, Shepard has been rescued but is comatose in an Alliance hospital. Jack deals with his coma and death. Rated M for Jack-level language.

A post-ME3 story. A post-destroy ending. Drama and fluff. Laughter and tears. And, in the end, a simple, and hopefully heart-warming story, of a love between two people. Slightly rose-tinted view of a post-war galaxy. Happily Ever After? Mostly focusing on MaleShep / Tali romance and POV.

Twenty-four years have passed since the Reaper War, and now Ria'Shepard, the adopted daughter of Shepard and Tali, sets off for her pilgrimage. Meanwhile a old enemy reemerges, forcing Shepard to take on his first Spectre assignment in five years to stop them. As both become embroiled in a conflict to control an ancient weapon, can either Shepard hope to save the galaxy once more.

Cerberus' goal was simple in concept: resurrect Shepard to be precisely the same. They failed. Pushing forward, the result was a powerful, untested cybernetic soldier who doubts his own humanity. Now, he will need to lean on his new crew of unknowns, old friends, a past love, and a new one even more fragile than he. [Many thanks to my fellow authors 'JacksAreWild' and 'Bebus']

Shepard and Tali's relationship grows during the fight with the Reapers, but that doesn't mean their story ends after they deal with the ancient synthetics. Reapers were simple; you can just shoot them in the head area. But that doesn't work for fans, admirals, or the past. Focuses on Tali/Shep pairing, rated M for sexual content and language.

Here's a short piece I thought up one day that I wanted to share. What if Tali attempted to save Shepard on the Normandy? Hope you like it. Please comment.

Due to a shift in turian and quarian patrols, first contact for humanity is friendly; Rael'Zorah and Hannah Shepard become friends, as do their species. But the galaxy is not a safe place, and schisms develop when the Council steps in. As humanity finds new allies among the stars, something darker stirs. The Meek must beware, for it is nearly harvest time. AU, lots of worldbuilding

In London, Shepard has fallen on his way to his destiny and the Crucible remains inert. Dying and alone, he rests in the very heart of the Reaper horde. But where strength can fail, Love endures forever. This is the story of such love. This is the story of eternity. This is the story of Jack.

Having settled into their new home on Rannoch, Tali and Shepard decide its time to take the plunge into parenthood by adoption. This story acts as a prequel for another story called "Mass Effect: Pathways" authored by "TheWerdna"

Post-war, Jack has left her teaching position and moved on to her second "real job", and let me say that odd things come out of headcanon conversations with other authors - thanks Caracal22 :D Rated M for Jack-level swearing, of course.

This is a collection of one-shots involving mostly Tali and Shepard. Some rewrites of scenes from the ME3, others are original scenes. Hope you enjoy. Spoilers: Best to have beat the game. I won't give much away, but still... Updated!

ME2. It's hard to hate what you understand. Zaeed/Aria. One-shot.

A young quarian pilgrim, Tali'Zorah nar Rayya, joins up with the legendary Commander Shepard. As the adventure continues, Tali can't shake off the feelings that she has for Shepard. He would never like her more than a friend... or would he? My first fanfic. Does NOT follow canon for the MAJORITY of the story.

After the defeat of the Reapers, Jack needs something to guide her. 500 word drabble, Post Mass Effect 3. Rated for language.

ME2. Post-Samara loyalty mission. Jack and Samara have a chat after the visit to Omega. One-shot.

Set post-Reaper War, the galaxy is still rebuilding as Shepard and Tali build their own lives on Rannoch.

Named for the song by Korn, a total Jack song. Jack meets John Shepard's mom, Hannah! Rated M for language and suggestive content. I have no rights to Mass Effect, I just have fun with it. Please Review!

A short fic delving into the history of our favourite tattooed biotic. Ever wondered what some of Jack's tattoos stood for?

Shepard just met Tali on Freedom's Progress. Of all the people in the galaxy, he had to cross path with her on the first day out of coma/death? Come on! Such a stupendously improbable event has to mean something, no? At least, that's what Tali thinks.

Commander Shepard has been killed in a surprise attack on the Normandy. While Cerberus rebuilds him, the members of his crew attempt to move on. A bridge piece between ME1 and ME2 following the SR1 crew. Rated M for language/violence/adult content

An exercise in getting rid of unwanted tenants. Is it worth it to plan, organize, and execute a full-on assault on the biggest arms dealer in Citadel space, just to get some alone-time? You bet your ass it is. Jack/Thane.

Complete. Nobody's really whole, we're just broken in different ways from each other. Jack/Thane.
