Shepard and Tali are ready to confess their feelings for each other, but their moment is interrupted by the theft of the Normandy. Now they must hurry to find and retrieve the Normandy, but conspiracies and revelations could destroy the feelings they have found. Concludes the story starting with Mass Effect: The Heart Wants and Mass Effect: First Date.

Taking place between Liara T'Soni's second and third conversations aboard the Normandy in Mass Effect 1, this light character exploration depicts Liara's day-to-day shipboard life, a reflection on her past, and her inner monologue as she discovers her feelings toward Commander Shepard.

After getting most of his squad in order and recruiting his sister from Fehl Prime, Commander Shepard is forced to head through the Omega 4 relay to save his crew. How will the suicide mission (and beyond) go with not one but two Shepards? [AU. Starts post-IFF mission and may advance into ME3 as well. MShep/Miranda. FShep's pairing to be added later. The J. Garson tag is FShep.]

Ever since she saw Garrus Vakarian, Leena Burke always loved him. The mechanic from the Citadel joins Garrus and Commander Shepard to protect the galaxy. On her adventures Leena will face danger, adventure, and possibly love. Only time will say if she will have the courage to tell the Archangel how she truly feels.

A grouping of disconnected shorts in the After story, serving as a bridge between After and the upcoming All That Matters

It's been 8 months since the war with the Reapers ended and as the galaxy tries to rebuild, a new threat works to finish the mass extinction promised by the Reapers. While small and barely worth the mention, the group is a much larger threat than they appear to be on the surface. But before they can tackle this threat, the crew must retrieve the body of a fallen friend.

They have sent a loan razer to Earth to station itself for touchdown and reporting…And to collect their missing chief science officer—a cloned mod named Cat Smythe and her bantons. Aided by Sieis with the ability to block biotic power, shunting its effects, Catherine Smythe runs across Rakhana's Upper Mier desert to evade Kasumi Goto and Tetonbaum, the mysterious half-brother of…

Rewrite of Life in Gray. Garrus and Shepard throughout the trilogy and beyond. There is no Shepard without Vakarian.

"I'm still not completely sure you've forgiven me for what happened with Sidonis. You could still walk away at any time. We both know you can. But I'll never forgive myself if I don't tell you everything before you do." Mass Effect 2 as told via the communication logs of Commander Camina Shepard and Garrus Vakarian. Continues the "Access Granted" storyline, but can be a standalone.

Mordin was afraid of this. Before his retirement, he'd heard rumors that DRAG-Zero had captured a unique asari and took it to a genetics lab, which makes no sense. Asari DNA is far too complex to be altered, enhanced...or hybridized. Right? OR A spooky story with murder mystery elements, Aria/Tevos, lots of queer OCs, and the asari equivalent of Texas!

In the years since her family was killed, J.R. Shepard has learned to put the personal aside in favor of the professional. But as the galaxy's crises become her responsibility, as she gathers around her the people who will aid her, she finds a new family, and love that she never expected, and will have to learn how to put the two halves of herself back together.

Wrex's contract into Fist leads him to a new opportunity with a Spectre. He never really thought about any relationships or mates due to the genophage but he's drawn to Shepard. She's a fierce warrior who doesn't take crap from anyone. Their relationship remains platonic but it's a struggle with their sexual tension that could never bloom. Her love for Liara makes things difficult

A THIRD set of updates to the original! That's right, I'm so incompetent I had to redo it YET AGAIN. Expanded notes on every aspect of the Systems Alliance, from ships, weapons, and armor to government, complete orders of battle, and more terms. Now updated (May 2021) with tactical considerations, plus the March 2020 updates.

When Mindoir is attacked by slavers, 16-year-old Cara Jane Shepard is saved by mercenary Zaeed Massani, not Alliance. Now, at 28, Shepard is helping Zaeed to lead a mercenary crew. A job with a huge payday comes their way. Millions of credits served to them on a silver platter, and it's just too good to pass up. Plus, Eden Prime is a backwoods paradise colony. What could go wrong?

A rewrite of one of my older stories: The Challenger Deep is the deepest part of the ocean, and for millions of years has kept its secrets for itself. In the year 1960 a team of scientists made the first dive to the Challenger Deep. What they discovered was something that would forever change the course of human history.

In the aftermath of the Reaper War, Shepard and Tali endure their own hells to come back to each other. (Cover art belongs to Epantiras on Deviant Art.)

In 2170 Mindoir was raided by batarian slavers, killing or enslaving the entire colony. It was thought that the first human spectre, Commander Shepard, was the sole survivor of the brutal attack. But when evidence that his sister is alive comes to light, his world is turned upside down. Profile has full description.

Every great once in a while you stumble upon something that changes your world and makes you fall in love with it. For me, that was Mass Effect; but that love affair only existed for the series to break my heart with a lackluster ending. Little did I know, the universe of Mass Effect needed me - and as it turned out, I needed it, too. (SI)(AU)

5 years post DE AU: Best Left Said. Osco is gone. Spectre T'soni and Dr. Shepard are now scouring the galaxy for any traces of advanced exo-alien tech in order to preserve the safety of their home from similar such threats. But there is more than one universe out there; more than one T'soni, and more than one Shepard, as well. All just as determined, but not all heroes.

Garrus' thoughts and feelings regarding Commander John Shepard were easy to understand and explain: He respected and admired the human Spectre and would follow him into hell in a heartbeat. His feelings regarding his crewmate and friend, Lieutenant Jane Shepard, however, weren't as clear cut. She'd taken up residence in his head and wouldn't leave. Slight AU, Shepard Siblings.

Tali'Zorah was just looking for a worthy pilgrimage gift, but is sucked into the adventure of her liftime instead. At the helm: Commander Shepard, greatest hero of the Alliance. But with a life of violence and loss behind him and the weight of the galaxy on his shoulders, Tali soon finds that perhaps John Shepard needs her just as much as she needs him... Mostly Tali/Shepard POV

The Pulse is what the Quarians call the destructive wave sent out by the Citadel that destroyed the Reapers. It has affected their planet more than anywhere else. Desperate for answers, Tali is tasked - who is still on Earth helping Shepard recover - with finding those answers. What she finds could change everything - for her, for her people, and for those that have been lost.

Liara T'Soni knows about humans. She lectured on Shanxi the day after Turians made contact, after all. Kate Shepard knows about asari. She trained with Serrice City Guard, after all. She crawled singles bars on Thessia with her unit. Neither is ready for who she meets in a mineshaft below the surface of a fiery world, or the war to come. (FShep & Liara, Multiple POV, Asari culture)

The Number #1 Bestseller from Casey Nova, the author of self-help hits "Does Her Malyk Like You?", "You Don't Have To Be HER Forever Girl: Not Asking For Too Much From Asari Partners", the travel guide "Thessia For the Thickheaded", the memoir "A Black Girl Goes Blue", the historical romance "Serrice Serenade" and the up-coming thriller "In a Nos Astra Minute".

I'm not a good person. I've killed, and will continue to. However, here and now I have a chance to be better. To make the galaxy better and I'm going to take it. No matter what I have to go through, what I have to endure. I will help Shepard create a better galaxy, even at the cost of my life I will help create a better galaxy. Updates every Saturday.
