When the Illusive Man paid for information on the Collectors and Reapers, he didn't expect to be given an undocumented teenager with her closest family history dating back to early 21st century. Commander Shepard, the Butcher of Torfan, isn't going to let such knowledge go to waste though, even if it requires extensive "persuasive" measures. SI

The stars mean different things to different people. And people hardly ever stay the same people they were. Short, progressive slices of Shepard's life through its most defining events.

These are the little shenanigans that Shepard and her crew get up to. It's all pretty light hearted. (No shipping)

Shepard is the most renegade of renegades. She's cold, cruel, homophobic and is so pro-human and anti-alien that she even unnerves the Illusive Man. And after nearly being killed by her numerous times due to her ruthless nature, the entirety of the Normandy hates and fears her. Until someone discovers there is a fault with Shepard's cybernetics.

Light begets light. Ghost 'verse.

The woods are lovely dark and deep but I have promises to keep and miles to go before I sleep and miles to go before I sleep. -Robert Frost The Reaper War left so much death and destruction in its wake that it seemed the galaxy would never recover. Eight years later life has almost gone back to normal. But some things will never be the same no matter how hard you try to fix them.

Melinda Shepard and Samantha Traynor's first meeting was anything but ideal.

Turians are supposed to be hard, cold people. Then again, Garrus was always a bad turian. Implied FemShepXGarrus (if you squint).

Shepard felt her rage build, beginning to peak. It moved within her, below conscious thought, deep in her soul. It was the strongest of her reflexes, the greatest of her appetites. Anger was a powerful weapon in the right hands and the hottest burning hatred Shepard had, was for the Reapers. They'd taken so much from her, they'd taken her future. My take on ME3, dark but romantic.

A New Adventure (An Alternate Universe Mass Effect Fan Fiction) (MALE SHEPARD/CORTEZ) Steve and Shepard's peaceful life changes when they rescue a little girl from an escape pod that crashed close to their property.

Shepard's throwing a party on the Citadel, and when Miranda decides to attend she can't help but wonder where she and Jack stand after their night together on the Normandy while fighting the collectors.

Sometimes Commander Shepard feels like he is surrounded by idiots. (A series of one-shots)

A Salarian STG team is sent to begin the covert uplift of a race known as the Humans. What happens next will forever change the face of the galaxy, as a new race enters the galactic stage. OC heavy. My first fic, so constructive criticism is appreciated. Rating may be subject to change.

[ALTERNATE UNIVERSE] Based on a Tumblr prompt. Written somewhat tongue-in-cheek, Commander Shepard of C-Sec takes in Kolyat Krios for shoplifting, but Kolyat refuses to tell anyone what he was really doing. Thane Krios arrives to, hopefully, shed light on the situation.

Fem Shep and Thane have been together for a while and their relationship is strong. But what happens when Thane discovers her long buried feelings for one of her other teammates?

First Contact AU. The very first rule you learn when you enlist is this - don't trust the turians.

Eventual Shakarian.
