"The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step." Or in Akeelah Shepard's case, one fateful posting aboard a new ship that will soon turn her understanding of the galaxy upside down. Chapter 7: A Journey Begins. Kaidan watches over Akeelah in the med bay, and awkward thoughts begin to surface.

Entire colonies are disappearing. The only thing standing between humanity and the Collectors are an extremist organisation and a once dead Spectre. Ian Shaw may have survived Omega, but as a suicide mission looms and old faces emerge, he's about to find the future he thought he knew may no longer be so certain.

MShep chooses 'Destruction', but galactic society is still working on cleanup and restabilization. While working with the Alliance and waiting to hear from the Normandy, a new species is discovered amidst ruins of galactic war. AU, 6 months after the end of ME3. Suspense/Action/Drama/Horror

After priority: Thessia Thessia fell. Shepard stands her ground, holds up against the Asari councilor, withholds Anderson telling her to shake things off and manages to answer politely when Traynor mentions just another facility attacked by Cerberus. When Joker tells about his family on Tiptree though, the hairline crack inside her breaks.

It is two years since the events of Mass Effect 3. In this 'what-if' scenario, Shepard survived the detonation of the Crucible and Garrus finds out what it means to be a father...a father to the first ever turian-human hybrid. This is simply what I envision as a happy ending to and for any fan of the Shepard/Garrus pairing available in the game series. This is a One-Shot.

Shepard asks new crewmember, Thane, for training with a sniper rifle, even though she is gifted marksman herself. Does the trust gained in this relationship cease if he finds out about her lies? Marilyn Shepard and Thane Krios will fight for a love that's worth more that living for; it's worth killing for. Rated M: language/sexual themes. Non-canon.

The remainder of the members of the Turian Embassy on earth carry on about their lives As Ree and Max move on to 'better' things. Part 2 of the 3 part Mass Effect Survival Series. As told from Jorvan Vikars perspective (for the most part) This part will be more compressed than 1 and 3 and will span prior to and during the Reaper war, right up until the RGB ending.

(Fixed the text - sorry about that, ya'll.) Shepard teases Garrus and he calls her bluff. Confrontation with Kaidan. Lemony content. All Characters owned by bioware.

This fic primarily serves to fill in Samantha Traynor's background and give life to her character. Much will be left of canon. The second chapter is up and takes place 3 months after the attack on Horizon. Summary will be updated to reflect the progression of the story. May or may not be FShep/Traynor - I haven't decided! Rated M for language.

Shepard is brought back to life after the Synthesis and has to deal with the fallout of her decision. But that outcome also comes with a perk of being able to fall in love with EDI again. All is fair in love and war. And Kara Shepard will stand by her choices.

Shepard wakes from a nightmare to the warmth of him at her side, a constant reminder that she wasn't alone in this fight. And it's enough to keep the fear of failure at bay.

Not everybody goes groundside with Shepard, and someone has to clean up after him. This is the story of Corporal Lynn Weston aboard the SSV Normandy

One-shot from Kaidan's POV. Post-War AU. Kaidan comes home after a few weeks away on a Spectre mission.

After the defeat of the proto-Reaper and the destruction of the Collector Base, the crew of the Normandy begins to prepare for the arrival of the Reapers. Given the characters onboard, however, there are some road bumps. Post-ME2, Pre-ME3. One-shot.

AU. The Normandy and her crew are about to take the next big step in humanity's history: jumping through the newly discovered Mass Relay. What lies on the other side, nobody knows, but Commander Shepard is determined to find out. With her gamble comes a chance encounter coated in a thousand shades of blue.

After a night of drinking with Garrus, Shepard wakes up with some explaining to do to Liara.

It's Thane's birthday! Shepard has plans. (Fluff.)

Sloan Shepard and Garrus Vakarian have a conversation on human beliefs, love, destiny, and soulmates. A oneshot from the same storyline as The Reason. Shenko, though Kaidan is absent. Rating is for language.

I never wanted to die, but when fate takes my life away, I find myself trapped in a universe I never thought existed. Now, I must guide the Savior of the Galaxy in the correct path with what little knowledge I possess. The galaxy is in danger, and I must help to save it, or bring forth its destruction. Slightly non canon. Rated T for now.

The cinematics of Thessia take a lot of power away from the player, these short pieces try to give some of that power back. Fight, fail, and react to the events of the story - don't just watch them happen. Oneshot.

One October day in 2156, three Marines meet up in a bar.

'Shepard! They've found you' 'Biotics are nothing but dangerous and I will stop every one, especially you' 'Tell me honestly, did you kill her' 'You are the last biotic' 'I'm running for my life because of you' 'I won't stop until I kill you' 'I'm not dangerous' 'If you're innocent then why did you run'

Femshep and Garrus in ME2. Shepard notices Garrus' feelings for her. Lemony content. All characters owned by Bioware. Completed story.

Space is big, empty, (and if you're stuck on a ship for your entire life) absolutely boring. So to pass the time, Quarians sing space shanties like their sea faring ancestors of old. This fic won't have much story to it, (maybe later on), but will mostly be looking be at what shanties would look like in the mass effect universe.

Short episodes about the sacrifices you must make for interspecies love.
