In the second part of the Guardian plotline, our characters break free of their old selves, new beginnings spring to life, and a fight is to be had for the future of every race in the galaxy. Friendships will be tested, and love will be challenged as lives are changed forever. Rated M for language, violence and adult situations. Recently updated with several edits.

Tali wonders how a group of hardened war veterans (a.k.a. her intergalactically famous, Reaper-killing best friends) could get themselves into a situation as ridiculous as this.

In the aftermath of the war with the Reapers, peace is finally a conceivable future. Cerberus is wiped out, having crumbled after the Illusive Man's death. The Reapers are gone, destroyed by the Crucible. But without the threat of them to unite the galaxy, how long can peace last? How long before the galaxy needs a hero to save it once more?

You will burn. Brightly. And they are the brightest colours he has ever seen. {cover art by cynthiabelmer}

Shepard never expected this, yet it happened. She should have seen that result coming. It was the story of her life, after all. She's not a bad person... Is she? I guess you could say she is, and she doesn't regret a thing. For the most part, anyway...

The Chaos Legion, a mishmash of races and abilities, have been sent to the Krogan planet of Tuchanka. Reaper forces have begun to push into the Krogan DMZ, and the battle has quickly turned into a bitter ground war. The Legion's objective is to turn on a ship-killer defense array to fight off the Reapers as they enter the system, before the Reapers take it for themselves... (O/C's)

One-shot. Pull-ups can be boring, especially when you do a lot of them. But they stop being boring if someone decides to interrupt.

Set in ME2, during the Normandy Crash Site mission. Shepard struggles through the beautiful loneliness of Alchera, finding reminders of her dead colleagues everywhere. Seeing the wreckage of her home and her friends takes an inevitable emotional toll. Angst/hurt/comfort/little bit of Shoker fluff.

"Shepard got his love of the sky and its freedom. It's what makes him fall for her." A little Shoker oneshot.

The second Krogan Rebellion is raging through Citadel Space. In desperation, the Council forms a plan to recruit the recently discovered humans, rumoured to be a ruthless and powerful species. They send Spectre Garrus Vakarian to negotiate for their aid. However, as Garrus seeks the ship called Normandy and its commander, he realises the humans have goals of their own. (AU)

Alliance soldier Audrea disappeared from earth in 2025 after a strange discovery. She's rescued from Cerberus by Commander Shepard almost two centuries later, and now has to find a way to deal with the scars of the past and the uncertainty of the future that presents itself cryptically in her dreams. AU-ish, OC. Not a self insert time travel.

"Remember when Miranda said that she was the first one that her father kept?." She smiled at Shepard weakly. "Yeah well he didn't exactly kill the other two, more like gave them to psychopathic warlords. Well one became a psycho, the other became a kickass priestess" And that's how Shepard met the runaway. R&R if your interested. Ending will shock you!

Kaidan goes into extreme shock after loosing Shepard for the second time in his life. Will he pull out, or will the truth be too much to handle? Shepard chooses what she thinks is the only sane choice given to her, how will her actions pan-out for the future of all Organics? Post ME3. Takes place right after the Extended cut Destroy ending. Rating may change as story progresses.

Maia Shepard is certain of her end - whether by her own hand or by the thousands of people who want her dead. In her forced solitude and house arrest, she meets a Spectre who ultimately stops her from seeking her death. Rated a strong T for some minor language, suicidal thoughts, mentions of war crimes, and vague hints at abuse. A mini-fic. F!ShepardxM!OC. Complete.

She's a runaway. The runaway. He's a commander. The Commander Shepard. When John Shepard meets a strange girl with no proper past, he forgot one thing, just because she's a runaway doesn't mean she isn't a liar. And in this life lying is a virtue.

That title is just lovely isn't it? Well, here it is, a self-insert for Mass Effect. Of course, considering I have NO survival skills, mediocre self-control, uncontrollable self-castigation, and outdated information, it's bound to at least be interesting before I die. I swear if this is God's idea of a joke, then, God, you are a completely and totally sadistic bastard. M for langua

Before the last stand in the war against the Reapers, Shepard promised Garrus she would meet him at The Bar. It is now time to make good on that promise. They laugh, they cry… Wait. That doesn't happen. They reminisce, they see others they know, and one of them gets into some trouble. Pretty much the same as always, and that will never change.

Shepard now has control over the Reapers. Her problem now is figuring out if she has control over herself anymore.

After the control ending of ME3, more and more Reapers break free of Shepards control and attack the galactic civilisations. Follow an all new protagonist and a squad of old and completely new Mass Effect characters uncovering the sinister plan behind all this.

I was just an average joe, that is until I found an artifact that throws me across the very fabric of space and time. As my first unexpected stop, I land in the middle of the first Mass Effect game. But my arrival sparks a storm of changes to the game's plot that I can barely imagine. Its up to me and a motley crew to travel behind the scenes and fix the damage that's been done

After an unwise night spent at the Purgatory, Tali needs to be picked up by a certain blue-eyed turian. Garrus tries to find out what had motivated his friend to go to the bar in the first place. During a conversation that's longer than the usual elevator ride, the friends find themselves reminiscing with one another about past decisions and harbored doubts.

Commander Phaedra Shepard is building a small army with the dossiers that the Illusive Man give her. However, with the threat of death hanging over her shoulder, she's got quiet reservations that it's just not enough. When the Illusive Man sends her back to Aeia to check out a strange signal coming from the depths of the forest, Shepard finds hope in something new.

A series of one shots detailing the life of John Shepard and Miranda Lawson after the Reaper war is over. This is an account of the most important stages in their family life, from the hilarious moments of calamity to the difficult moments of sadness and reflection. Direct continuation of my first story - Nearing The End.

A one-shot, based on Wrex.

Takes place about a year after Dreams Fought For. Elly Shepard and Dr. Liara T'Soni have four amazing children. What is in store for each one now that they are young adults that embark on their own journeys? Is this family ready for what lies ahead? Is the Galaxy ready? There will be loss, suffering, happiness, romance, and of course drama, drama, drama!
