Author has written 1 story for Mass Effect.

Yeah, I'm just another of those silly amateur writers with foolish hopes :)

The motivation to write this one fanfic came back in March. As many others, I felt the conclusion to the Mass Effect trilogy was inadequate and didn't properly allow me to say goodbye to these characters I'd come to love. Then I learnt the term "to head canon sth", and found out that people were writing their own endings to their own Shepards! I guess I was sort of taken aback - people would do something like that? But the seed was planted and I quickly came to build up my own post-ME3 farewell to Kaely Shepard (shown in my avatar). Much of what I've written was outlined back in March, actually, but we'll get to that.

Then the Extended Cut was announced and I saw a glimmer of hope. So I waited... and it finally arrived. Okay, so the ending was better, but still far from great, and my Shepard was still left lying in a pile of rubble! 'This won't do', I thought. The next day I was putting down into words what had been shaping in my mind for the last couple of months. I would have closure.

It was only after I started exploring other people's "head canon" endings, here and on BSN, that I learnt how unoriginal I was :P Shepard being affected by the events of the Reaper War was apparently something quite a few others had imagined as well. And of course a lot of others had developed a strong bond to Liara T'Soni, and would depict the two of them together. The result is that I'm now here and not really bringing anything new to the table, so to speak. Still, maybe someone will find a measure of enjoyment in my fanfic anyway :)

Unity by Awska reviews
Victory is only the beginning. Shepard and Liara, their friends, families, allies, enemies, and the fate of the united galaxy after the end of the Reaper War. Gritty, sciency, often funny or teary, sometimes sexy. …And always hopeful.

Closure reviews
The Reapers are gone, but so is the Normandy. Shepard wakes up to a world that doesn't need her skills anymore and an absence of friends and loved ones. Although they eventually return, life refuses to go back to the way it was; too much has happened and some wounds refuse to close.
