Lucky to be born alive and just as lucky to not get court marshaled when he took the Normandy that one time... but his luck ran out as it seemed he was never able to confess to a certain someone until the worst time possible. Grief makes a man do crazy things... like joining a terrorist organization and convincing his friend to do the same thing.

Every great once in a while you stumble upon something that changes your world and makes you fall in love with it.

After awakening from her coma, very much the worse for wear, Commander Shepard has to negotiate her position in the world and slog through the tumultuous process of rehabilitation, both mental and physical.
