The Reapers have arrived. The war has begun, and already the galaxy crumbles. Reunited with old friends, aided by new allies, Shepard finally finds herself face-to-face the enemies she's dreaded for years...while keeping Cerberus at bay with one hand. (Cover images all belong to Bioware. As with Mass Effect itself, I'm just borrowing them and giving credit where it's due.)

Admiral Onasi receives an unexpected message from his son via T3. His son claims to be Padawan to Revan herself, and his urgent message pleads for help for his sick Jedi Master. Carth hopes he can reach the Outer Rim in time.

How can an ordinary life of an ordinary colony kid turn upside down within a few hours? Starting shortly before the attack on Mindoir and continuing through the games. Currently in a middle of ME3 (just kicked Cerberus off the Citadel). Rated M for violence, cursing...you can imagine.

Sierra is a modern-day business consultant who finds herself suddenly in her favourite video game, Dragon Age. Her actions will change the history of Thedas. But what is a modern-day girl with too much knowledge supposed to do in a world surrounded by magic and monsters? Will cover DA2 and DAI (AU!) also. No descriptive sex - for NSFW version, see There and Back Again - Unedited.

You know that C-Sec can't always have been about serious or dire situations. Come watch what happens as Garrus and Chellick try to deal with One of Those Days. Garrus knew humans were different. He just didn't know how different that was, nor how totally annoying and thoroughly weird they could get.

The Reaper War is over. Temporarily stuck on earth, the Turians are working with humans of all nationalities and personalities. Primarch Victus finds that humans and Turians aren't that different in some ways. Rated M for swearing.

After the Star Forge, the galaxy has changed. As most of civilized space mourns the fallen heroes of the Star Forge expedition, its real survivors must face the consequences of their actions - even the ones Revan can't remember.

Commander Jalissa A. Shepard is back. Now, coping with the fallout of her own death and caught in an unpleasant alliance of necessity, she and her crew scramble to stop the Collectors. Mass Effect 2 as told through 1000-word vignettes. (Cover images all belong to Bioware. As with Mass Effect itself, I'm just borrowing them and giving credit where it's due.)

When Commander Echo Shepard is recovered from the aftermath of the Crucible explosion, she loses all memory of her former crewmates. Three years later, she comes to Palaven and crosses paths with Garrus Vakarian, who has been keeping his distance in the hopes she'll find a life without him. Will she find her happy ending? Or will he stir up memories that would be better off lost?

Short story bridging My Pillar, My Beacon to the upcoming sequel Veil From My Eyes. AU post Kotor, Carth Onasi x GS Fem Revan.

AU where the Alenkos decide to foster a sixteen-year-old girl after an Alliance patrol led by Kaidan's father rescues her on Mindoir. Shenko. From pre-ME1 to post-ME3. New cover art featuring an all grown-up Lisa Mae Shepard by gravity-zero.

A write through of the Bioware Stars Wars: Knights of the Old Republic game. Featuring F!Revan/Carth Onasi.

Shortly after Kaidan has joined the Normandy, Commander Shepard is forced to deal with the loss of friends, as well as her residual feelings for Kaidan. She's completely unsure of how he feels about her and is mildly resentful of him for his distance and remarks. This is a short one-shot of how Shepard privately deals with her emotions at the loss of Mordin and Thane.

After graduating from Del Sol Academy, Jane Shepard is posted the front of the Skyllian War, where she must deal with adulthood and the horrors of war, all whilst trying to work out who the traitorous Admiral Greyling had been working with and for. Along the way, Jane is confronted with the corruption in the Systems Alliance, and must choose where her loyalties truly lie.

"Spectres, well, that's what they look for- initiative, sound judgment, a dash of insanity." My novelization of Mass Effect 1, featuring Commander Nathaly Shepard and the rest of the crew, with an eventual Shenko romance. This fic takes a deeper dive into the story and characters, as well as adding or altering some events.

Exactly what it says on the tin. Contains cut content from Shepard Traitor Soldier Spy, Tumblr prompts, and other bits.

An homage to two things I love: KotOR and Dan Simmons' Hyperion Cantos. This is the story of the game KotOR told via a structure entirely inspired by the Hyperion series. Told from fem!Revan's point of view of her story. Includes the Ebon Hawk crew (as the story progresses). Comments/Critiques welcome. M for violence.

A frigid night on a distant world causes the exiled Meetra Surik to sit alone and remember a much different time in her life. A time when Malak was still Alek and Revan was still alive, before they all gave in to their inner darkness. She remembers a single moment during the war when three friends sat together and shared a drink. (KOTOR AU, Companion to No Light without Shadow)

"The first words your soulmate says to you appear on your body the day you turn 18" AU. I will die on the hill that is Shenko soulmate AU's. Short, sweet, fluffy. Feat. Rena Shepard.

If you asked Maxwell to describe the world, he would say it sucked. Between an alcoholic dad, a missing mom, and the shady job he performs to stay alive? His life was messed up as it was. But out of all the things he expected life to nail him in the gut with; it wasn't being sucked into a video game by a female goddess.

Years after the war has ended, Shepard hears the sound that shakes her nightmares. Against all odds, fear turns to hope.

Revan reflects on her own issues after KoTOR 1, deals with her problems to the best of her abilities, and leans on Carth.

She's dead. He can scarcely believe it. And as he tries to pick up the broken pieces of himself, Kaidan reminisces about all the reasons he fell in love with her to begin with. He tries to move on. Except she's not really gone... [T for language] COMPLETE!

Waking up in a video game universe had to be the most disorienting shit that had ever happened to Richard but hey, it could be worse. Stuck now in a universe on the brink of Galactic war and major drama Richard M. 'Matt' Farmer decides to fuck up the entirety of this universe to cause he has nothing better to do here.

Eva doesn't remember, but the Jedi tell her she did horrible things. She doesn't remember starting a war. She doesn't remember dying. But she did, and now the fate of the Republic is trapped somewhere in her lost memories... Eva doesn't remember, but the galaxy won't let her forget.

A happily-ever-after for Kaidan and Jane. A mostly canon epilogue in every way except that they get married during the events of the Citadel DLC.

Another one-shot, another of my favorite scenes from ME3, with my own flavoring. This one hurt me a lot, but...yeah. Had to do it. (Bioware owns ME I just write about it for fun and stress relief) Rated M for language and violence.

Set before Mass Effect 1, not long after the Blitz. Shepard was told to keep a low profile on the Citadel. That never went well.

"You know, my life flashed before my eyes on Mars – and there weren't enough moments like these, with people I care about." A collection of small moments from Kaidan's time in the Normandy with the famous Commander Sherpard. Covers ME1 - ME3. Soldier/Colonist/War Hero Shepard. Chapters length varies. Kaidan POV.

Orphaned as an infant and raised by an Asari Spectre, Shepard will choose to become a shield against evil when the galaxy takes what she loves most. Journey with the Commander as she hunts the mockery to her mother's organization, finds love where she least expects it, and discovers a threat to the very cosmos she's sworn to protect.

Shepard is the Hero of the Blitz. The brass decided she will be the face of all recruitment posters but first they have to get a good picture.

Lieutenant Commander Raina Shepard has never been good at letting people get close. She's in the Alliance to do her job, not make friends. But when she meets a handsome lieutenant, she finds herself in unfamiliar territory. Something in the way he looks at her rattles her carefully constructed walls. Updates every Tuesday.

Before the Normandy, before Saren and Reapers and Spectres, there was simply Shepard and Moreau.

Shepard agrees to do a favor for the Alliance to prove she isn't working for Cerberus. They ask more of her then she bargained for. Nothing but trope-filled fluff here. Just some minor language.

COMPLETE! SW KotOR: A quiet scholar onboard the Endar Spire suffers a head injury that changes everything. Dragged unwillingly into a battle for the fate of the galaxy, the real struggle is a three-way conflict of emerging identities struggling for dominance, and fragments of the past that cloud the present. [Knights of the Old Republic re-telling with deviations and twists.]

Humans ... are one the most laziest species to ever grace the galaxy, or as others would say the most scariest species to ever exist should they get off their bums and do something.

"You're just going to leave me alone here – like – like – here's some years back, fix it!" Shepard had always made the fool's choice. Finally, karma took pity on her. Or not.

Kaidan likes to watch. Nyx knows it, and even tries to encourage it because she knows how much it turns him on. But when he asks for something a little out of the ordinary the results are mind-blowing.

When the former Darth Revan disappeared from known space, she left a lover and a child behind. After their daughter is taken by the Jedi, Carth takes drastic measures that catapult him into the turmoil of the Galactic Cold War and reunites them against impossible odds. In a galaxy that still trembles where she walks, how could one man's influence change the course of the future?

The Normandy has always had a large noticeboard hanging in the crew mess to enhance crew communication, foster social bonds and create unity. All crew members are allowed to post, and make comments. Let chaos reign! Random ficlets about posts on the noticeboard that appear during the OT, much to Shepard's chagrin.

There's a gap in their lives. A gap of unlived, missing moments. And there's a war raging on, a war they don't know they can win. But they are soldiers still, soldiers first and foremost, soldiers before anything else, so they just keep fighting and simply hope for better tomorrows. Except, of course, it's not always enough... [One-Shot]

Commander Shepard faces the catalyst and makes a choice. If the reapers can be stopped, will the galaxy find peace? Either way, the story doesn't end with the trilogy. Multiple character POVs. Destroy rewrite. First few chapters to set scene and bridge the gap.

Fun moments of female Shepard and Kaidan inspired by the Tumblr OTP questions post. No angst! Enjoy :)

Surviving was just the first step. Now she has to find herself again, learn how to walk again, and maybe... go home again. Shepard's hardship after it was all over - except it wasn't. English version !

A little sideline in the ME2 universe. An attempt to impose order on the chaos that is the Normandy. As ever just for fun, not for profit.

John Shepard needs to get away from the slums, he does the only thing someone in his situation can do - sell himself into a two year servitude.

Not a fanfic about our favourite baby krogan, but rather an AU prequel of the original trilogy. Close after her family's death, sixteen year old Jane Shepard and her best friend Ashley Williams go to basic training at Del Sol Academy, where they uncover a conspiracy high in the Alliance Military. Now it's up to them and their new friend Kaidan Alenko to save the galaxy

Darth Revan's mind wasn't as far gone as the Jedi thought. And it really wasn't that smart to send a reprogrammed Sith Lord into battle. Who knows what might happen? Dark Side Female Revan! Revan recovers her memories!

When childhood friends Silvia Shepard and Jeff "Joker" Moreau reunite after almost twenty years worth of extranet letters and video calls, life and its wonders just naturally get in the way. With feelings becoming stronger, the inevitability of the Reaper war looms ahead of them. But Joker knows the Alliance and their rules about fraternization. But should they not get caught...

Not sure if this is AU or What If. I'm going with the premise that Garrus is about 3 years younger than Shepard so they have started Basic at the same time. So young Shepard meets young Garrus under difficult circumstances. The rating is for swearing. Shepard is a paragon with a mouth on her. This wondrous Universe belongs to Bioware - I'm just playing with it.

Haunting applies to several aspects of Shepard's life, be it sleep or old flames.

A story about Kaidan and Shepard(female) after the fall of the Reapers. It includes most characters from the Mass Effect universe in one chapter or another. It also has background other couples(Liara/Javik, Tali/Garrus). POV switches between Kaidan and Shepard, bolded where it does. The amazing cover art is courtesy of Reellifejaneway2 over on Deviant art. Go check her out!

Shepard's been tasked with infiltrating a Turian slave ship. Shepard hardly has the disposition of a slave and Garrus has no idea how to command his commander.

My take on the synthesis ending with a background of unrequited Shoker love. It felt awful to write it.

A re-count of 8 times when Joker was completely oblivious of Shepard's attempts to hit on him, and 1 when he wasn't. Rated M for future chapters.

One-shot shoker. Complete. Shepard is going undercover to an unexpected place. When she finds Joker there, they will have to seize the moment.

In which Garrett Hawke has the anchor and his twin sister, Marian Hawke, is the inquisitor. Watch as they wreak havoc across Thedas. "Do you regret finding them now, Seeker?" Varric asks Cassandra, his voice smug as they watch the twins attempt to ride a dragon for the seventh time. Slight Fenris/F!Hawke

Garrus has finally passed on and when he awakens he sees someone he never though he would see again.

Commander Shepard, daughter of two proud marines and sole survivors of tragedy. Faced with an impossible task, the battle-worn solider finds more than just another posting among the Normandy. ME1 one-shot series rated M for language.

Stunned by his losses, Kaidan returns to his family's vacation home...looking for his father, and perhaps, looking for a quiet, private place to end it all. Unfortunately, or fortunately for him...he has a squatter to deal with. (Yeah, just pile the warnings up... mature situations, slash, smut, bisexuality, threesome. You are fairly and duly warned. I don't want to hear it)

Prompt: "You fainted…straight into my arms. You know, if you wanted my attention you didn't have to go to such extremes." Shepard's injured in the field and is evacuated by a Turian frigate.

Parceque'on peut se tromper sur les gens qu'on croit connaitre...

Docked at Arcturus Station and trapped with nothing else to do, Alenko talks to Joker about their new XO - a Commander Shepard - among certain other things. Rated "T" for exactly one swear word that I didn't have the heart to delete, re-uploaded to correct a very silly spelling error (don't trust computers)

How does Kaidan feel, after just a few conversations with Shepard, about her seeing the Consort alone? Does she even like him? Multi-chapter story featuring the beloved Shenko pairing! Both perspectives though mostly from Kaidan's. Will span across all three games. Content rating subject to change. Shout out to Commander-hot-pants for the cover image!

The care and keeping of your fourteen year old Twi'lek.

The relationship between Commander Sharilin Shepard and Major Kaidan Alenko has always been complicated. Now, with the Reapers destroying the galaxy, will they be able to resolve their problems before it's too late? Will their love prevail again? - ME3 Shenko story, prequel of "Somewhere" - Rated M for mature content

Arwen is just a merc with the bad luck of being recruited for the Republic. At least, that's what she wants people to think. It doesn't take long before her facade starts falling apart, and darker secrets come to the surface...

Sequel to Ghost from the Past. Commander Jo Shepard has returned and is working alongside Cerberus to stop the Collectors but the galaxy isn't like she remembered it. Even Sid has changed but two things remain the same: Sid has Shepard's back and she's still crazy. How will the Collectors fare against two Shepards? Rated T for language and violence. ME2 fic.

Sequel to A Blighted Beginning. Across the sea, a country proclaimed her as the Hero of Ferelden. The girl from our world was no hero—she simply moved onto the next life. Now follower to the soon to be Champion of Kirkwall, the little sparrow will not be overcome by the mighty hawk's shadow.

He's going to do everything in his power to give her the world she deserves...

Commander Jane Shepard died and came back once because she was willing to give everything up for her crew. She'd do it again to save the universe, and destroy so much that she created. But what happens after? Whats left?

A recurring joke on the Tokyo is that Commander Mira Shepard emerged fully formed from a vat in the Alliance Labs, citing protocol and issuing writeups for uniform violations as part of a project to make the perfect XO.

Shepard finds herself returning to her solo-operative roots to thwart an imminent Reaper invasion. Meanwhile, there's no rest for the wicked as Shepard's fellow N7s, Eva Rogers and John Sheffler, are forced to decide where they stand as the Reaper War draws closer. (Cover images all belong to Bioware. As with Mass Effect, I'm just borrowing them and giving credit where it's due.)

Her name is Emma Fletcher and that's all she knows. Helped by a creature with horns and then dumped into a city of people who need some serious hygiene pointers, Emma tries to fit into a world that feels wrong and find out who she is. Along the way, she may make some very unlikely friends, in the form of a dashing man named Hawke and his mismatched company. (T rating may change)

Despite cutting ties with Cerberus, Shepard's work is never done, and Liara is locked in a dangerous game. A confrontation with the Shadow Broker is inevitable, and other forces have begun to move. Lair of the Shadow Broker as told through 1000-word vignettes. (Cover images all belong to Bioware. As with Mass Effect itself, I'm just borrowing them and giving credit where it's due.)

Commander Natasha Shepard is a biotic with the L2 implant. Not that it's common knowledge. This affects her life more than she'll ever admit. (In which Mindor happened earlier in the timeline, when Shepard was 10, not 16, Kaidan pretends the little Nat he knew on Jump Zero was a completely different person, and Shepard doesn't want any pity. For anything.) T for language & violence

Shepard falls in the last moments of the war. What happens afterwards? Will her crew find her again? Uncertainly and unknowns are that are certain in the days after the Reapers' fall. *** Rewritten and expanded ending to ME3 *** Please do not read if you haven't gotten that far. Complete.

The world is dying, and Avatar Jin has been charged with exploring a new one for both spirits and humans to inhabit. Their only chance for survival is a place called Thedas, a land plagued by fear and threats older than what history remembers, and a naive Avatar who believes she can fix it all on time.

: A mysterious stranger comes to the lonely uncharted world of Thedas seeking refuge, but few can stay hidden from the Empire forever. His presence brings the Empire's chief enforcers to this new world, and perhaps a new permanent resident to join Hawke's party in their misadventures.

Shepard knows that destroying the Reapers will kill her. Trouble is, she's never been good at dying. The explosion of dark energy from the Crucible thrusts Shepard into a totally different universe. Post ME3 ending, DA2 Act 2 beginning. Please note that this is not a FemShep/F!Hawke fic. THIS STORY HAS RECENTLY BEEN EDITED TO ALIGN WITH GAME CANON REVEALED IN DA:I

I lost my older account and have to make a new one. I wrote Switched several years ago and now I'm back with new ideas. I hope I don't hurt anyone. So here we go... Andre met a woman and their lives changed.

Varric left out a companion from The Tale of the Champion for a reason. Little does he know that she's important to the Seeker too. OC put into the Dragon Age world. Goes beyond DA2 through DAI. Rated M for a few chapters.

The first installment of a Mass Effect epic intent on exploring the voices and lives of Commander Nyx Shepard and her crew as they battle through personal demons, overcome powerful enemies, and seek something more than they ever thought they could have in the black sea between the stars. Rated M for later chapters and some canon-typical violence.

There is a lot of history between Joker and Shepard. This is a series of short one-shots of that relationship. The title will be explained in the second chapter. :)

Kaidan Alenko, a powerful biotic, is charged with working with a suspected latent human biotic - Commander Shepard. The two share an unusual connection and find themselves drawn together as they investigate a rogue Spectre on Eden Prime. (A mirror-verse AU where biotics are psychic vampires and the asari rule a ruthless Empire comparable to that of the protheans.)

Are you kidding me? How lame am I that, even if this is a hallucination of sorts, I don't even get to be the main hero? I don't even know the rules of this place, why couldn't it be Harry Potter I got dumped in? Thedas is still new to me, and of course I happen to appear just as it's all about to fall apart due to, y'know, the big hole in the sky?

The initial meeting between my renegade Rache Shepard and Kaidan.

What happens when Revan unexpectedly leaves Carth telling him she can't bring him with her? How can the both of them figure out a way to save the Republic and find their way back to each other without destroying everything they had together in the process? Revan fights between who she was and who she is becoming. Fem Revan/Carth pairing.

Twenty-one year old Thane Krios has accepted a contract that leads him Earth. While staking out his target, he stumbles upon thirteen-year-old Zara Shepard being held against her will by the very man he's been sent to kill. She's dirty, battered, and abused. Killing the leader of the Tenth Street Reds was no longer just about the contract; it was about saving her.

Oscar et André s'exilent en Amérique après le 14 juillet 1789. Mais Oscar ne dit plus un mot. Venez apprendre pourquoi et partager un peu leur quotidien. Bien sûr avec le couple André/Oscar.

Oscar turns to André for comfort on the night before she becomes the Commander of the Royal Guards.

When all is lost, how do you go on? Shepard deals with resurrection, love, and something else she never expected. ME2, ME3, DLC, AU. Action/drama/romance/family.

Angsty, fluffy, smutty, and hopefully funny prequel to The Accidental Proposal in which we find out why Admiral Hackett saw Kaidan without pants, what naked debriefings are, and how the crew of the Normandy found out about Shepard and Kaidan's relationship. (Post-ME3)

Items, affections, priorities, even people can all become misplaced. So how does a modern woman cope when she finds herself in a world where magic isn't a myth and dragons really do exist? Features everyone from DA2, plus one OC. Cover: Anders artwork used with permission from Sirenne at Deviant Art. Female stock photo from Lisajen-stock at Deviant Art.

How ME3 might have happened if they'd stuck with the themes presented in the first two games, as perceived by This Arrogant Author. Featuring Rhi Shepard (still quite enamored of her pilot), and the expected host of allies, partners in crime, and assorted hangers-on. (sequel to A Star to Steer Her By).

A modern woman in Thedas Fic. This story is about a 24 year old woman named Hallie. She gets thrown into Thedas with her memory of how and why wiped clean. She learns she has a unique set of abilities and spends her first year in Thedas with a Dalish clan wandering the Free Marches. But, in a quick turn of events, she is forced into survival mode and on the run to any safe place.

Oscar contemplates upon her past as she prepares for the future. Warning: implications of death and adult themes

sequel to my fic 'Turn the Tables' - carrying that Kaidan's and Shepard's story through to the events of ME3... a very AU, very Shenko version of the last part of the Mass Effect trilogy... see author's note for more detail...

In the chaos of the ongoing First Contact War, the Alliance is contacted by a resistence cell comprised of captured humans on Palaven, and Shepard is drafted for a covert mission to make contact. Her cover lands her where? The Vakarian household, of course. Shepard/Garrus, AU.

Admiral Jess Shepard is in Vancouver with the rest of Alliance Brass to commemorate the end of the Reaper War. The Council is in town, too. With a snow storm on the way, and all travel banned, Shepard will have to accept help – and shelter – from the last person she wants to, the man who broke her heart and left her alone to fight the Reapers - Kaidan Alenko. (Rated M for a reason)

Part 3 of the trilogy. Shepard has voluntarily returned to the Alliance in order to warn them about the Reapers. No one believes her, until one day, her warning comes true. But it's all too late. Shepard has to join forces with old allies and new ones to fight the toughest battle of their lifetime. (AU setting, changes will be made throughout the story.)

Commander Shepard, spacer, war hero, and all around diplomat (whether she likes it or not) gets assigned to a new prototype Alliance vessel. A lead up to ME1, continuing through the game.

Carth didn't trust her – quite possibly because she kept stealing anything she could fit in her pockets. LSF!Revan/Carth

The Jedi weren't the only ones to meddle with her mind. She knows who she is, but not how she fell. She remembers attacking the Republic, but not why. The answers are out there—if she can find them. Good thing Darth Revan doesn't give up easily. An AU take on KotOR.

Avery Shepard and Kaidan Alenko pick up the pieces after ME2. Rated M for language, violence and more later.

It's been thirty years since the Reapers were defeated and Liara is lonely, but finding love on the extranet might not have been the best choice. Now with a second chapter!

A fluffly little one-shot taking place sometime in ME3.

What started off as an innocent game of cards, soon descends into a drunken game of Truth or Dare. What could possibly go wrong?

"Associated with the sun, a phoenix obtains new life by arising from the ashes of death." A Mass Effect 3 Epilogue. Featuring loads of Shenko, a baby & beer (because there's no such thing as too much Shenko, babies & beer.)

Shepard lost hope and is loose on the Citadel. Is anyone safe?

""Do not try to be someone you are not." - "But who am I then, André?" I would never get an answer to my question, because the next morning, he was gone." - forever? With the Revolution just ahead, Oscar is in search of her own identity, which leaves a decision to her: Will she fight on the side of the nobels or the commoners, and will she be woman or man? Contains elements of AU.

The First Contact War has raged for six years, and both sides are sick of it. A peace treaty is in the works but Udina wants a stronger connection between the humans and turians. A political marriage is forced upon both sides, taking two of their best soldiers and tying them together. AU.

Earth Alternative Universe f!shenko fic - Shepard and Kaidan are civilians on Earth on the day of the Reaper invasion. Inspired by Solcomms Twitter event.

"I am NOT too young." She muttered under her breath, walking away from the party. Warning: underage drinking.

It takes a pillar of strength and a beacon of light to hold the dark side at bay. Luckily, the crew of the Ebon Hawk has both... (fem Revan/Carth) Spoilers. No... SPOILERS. (Mature content warning, lemons, language.) This first part (yes, you read that right) is based on a what if...What if Carth and femRevan were a couple well before the reveal?

One day, the Reapers will be gone. One day, Shepard and Kaidan will have to face the challenges of an ordinary life. And on that day...they'd rather fight Reapers. A multi-chaptered epilogue for Shenko.

"Grief is not something you can lay to rest beside your bed at night and take back up in the morning. It is always there. Festering while you sleep. It stays. It lingers. It bleeds into your days until your world is rife with it." - Kaidan in the aftermath of Shepard's death over Alchera. A tale of heartache and healing in two parts.

Kaidan holds his newborn daughter for the very first time.

One shot short idea that had come to mind after listening to the song by Enya far too many times while writing. It is set as a 'what might have happened' if the story continued after the dark side female revan's ending (using the mod that lets you persuade carth to join you).

The story of how best friends and troublemakers extrodinaire Katie Hackett and Jeff "Joker" Moreau met on their first day of kindergarten. Related to my fic The Ties that Bind Us. One-shot. Complete.

A meeting between Commander Shepard and Lieutenant Alenko before the events of Mass Effect 1. A night gone awry for Kaidan Alenko results in him meeting a mysterious woman. Who is she and why does he feel so drawn to her?

In which a certain prickly elf makes his way to Skyhold.

Continuing the story of my Shepard and Kaidan from Reflections, with new original story idea and character thrown in. Shenko all the way, rated M for language, violence, adult content, oh my!

Part 2 of the trilogy. (AU setting starting from Horizon) The long lost hero resurfaces after two years. But her sudden appearance raises too many questions and suspicions. Rejected by her previous allies, Shepard is now forced to work with the enemies to take down another threat to the galaxy while fighting an internal battle on her own.

Je vous laisse découvrir cette fic écrite il y a plusieurs années et publiée sur un autre site.

After Horizon, Joker's had enough of the sulking on board, so he decides to do something about it. It's just too bad for Cerberus that "doing something" means dumping Shepard and Kaidan alone on a dangerous planet to hash out their problems, a planet that one member of the crew is already intimately familiar with. Rated M, mostly for later situations and a whole lot of profanity.

Sequel to 'Commander Shepard, Space Marine'. Kaidan Alenko's life is... interesting, to say the least. He's humanity's first Spectre and in love with a famous actress. But he's not quite sure about the stuffed toy kangaroo she keeps in pride of place in her apartment...

Varric and Cassandra have danced around each other since she had him questioned about his previous companions. Then he stayed when he could have left. She struggles with the decisions she has made, and it is the irreverent dwarf who helps.

The sequel to Service. AU. Lauren Shepard and Kaidan Alenko have been on and off friends since they were teens at BAaT. Will serving together change their friendship? An ME1 novelization, straying from canon.

Companion piece to my A/U story "Change of Plans". (so it's in that same AU) It's a year after the Blight has ended. King Alistair has no queen and no heir. This needs fixing. Our three bachelors - Fergus, Alistair, and Teagan - have finally left Dragon's Peak - forward progress!

"Kira Shepard was more than a 'soldier', more than a 'woman', more than 'beautiful' and more than a 'hero'. She was mine. Mine. And somehow, when everything else fails, words help me to bring her back. Just the way she was." These are the private memoirs of Kaidan Alenko, detailing his untold love story with Commander Kira Shepard throughout the Mass Effect trilogy.

"Just another shakedown run", they said. How will the galaxy fare in the hands of the reclusive woman named Shepard? Original characters, scenarios, situations and styles. A type of a detailed novelization. Sex scenes will be uploaded to a different site. Warning: blood/gore, language, and sexual themes. Pregnant!Shep. Part one of the Spectral trilogy.

Shepard just wanted to drink the rejection away. Until Detective Chellick asked for her help. It wasn't supposed to be like this! Fem/ShepxGarrus Jealous Garrus, and mentions of onesided Garrus/Tali

HIATUS. Landyr Kasra just landed a job as the bodyguard of Bastila Shan. The young mercenary woman remembers nothing about her past and hardly remembers yesterday. She is desperately trying to regain both. It's too bad she's addicted to the very things inhibiting her memory.

One-Shot based on a prompt I stumbled over: AU where Kaidan has had a bit of a wild night out in pre-Reaper War Vancouver and THINKS he climbed into the apartment of his buddy James. In the morning, it turns out he missed the window by a block and now he is hungover and shirtless on the couch of one pretty redhead with a gun. (fShenko)

Major Kaidan Alenko can't sleep. The memory of Eris Shepard, his former Commander and lover, still haunts him 3 months after the Reaper threat ended. But one starless night is about to give him all the answers he needs...

Commander Kate Shepard has destroyed the Reapers and the galaxy is safe once more.
