Shepard survived the Crucible. These are the Alliance files charting his time spent recovering in hospital. COMEDY, not to be taken too seriously. **WARNING** Shepard has hacked my account and is replying to all reviews. Proceed with caution.

For the Aria's Afterlife "Under-served Character" contest. A look back at the history of Zaeed Massani, from picking up his first assault rifle pre-Contact to the end of the Reaper war. Selected in memory of Robin Sachs, RIP. Lots of swearing, which you should expect from Zaeed Goddamn Massani.

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.

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

Mordin: Inconceivable! The Illusive Man: Who said life is fair? Where is that written? Shepard: Collectors of Unusual Size? I don't think they exist. Thane: Hello. My name is Thane Krios. You killed my father. PREPARE TO DIE! Legion: Marriage. Marriage is what brings us together in consensus today. Yes, the Princess Bride, done with Mass Effect characters! Read it now!

ME2: Tali saved her father's reputation and prevented a civil war. The cost? Exile from the Migrant Fleet. But as the saying goes, home is where the heart is. Rated T for some language. One-shot. Not a shipfic.

Another take on the relationship between Tali and Shepard, starting with Mass Effect 1. Rated T for future proofing.

Jeff "Joker" Moreau is treated to one of Yeoman Kelly Chambers "special" visits. What started out as professional interest quickly turns into something neither had expected. Rated M for adult situations and descriptive, tasteful erotica.
