Christmas snippet now up on Chapter Two! A collection of standalone snippets of my favorite couple: Shepard and Vakarian.

Shepard's alive, Kaidan isn't and Shepard isn't about to forget that. Whoever is responsible will rue the day they thought to attack the Normandy.

Commander Shepard found comfort and protection in the arms of the one person who always had her back: Garrus Vakarian. But now the Reapers are destroying everything in their path and her former romance with Kaidan may still not be over. T for Language and implied adult situations.

I died, and now I'm not sure whether I'm in limbo, hell, or somewhere else. As memories of my past life fade along with bits of my sanity, I wonder if I'll be able to find a way home before I forget it exists. I'll just have to take any help I can get. S/I

A quickie that leaves a quarian feeling icky.

It's not the same exact story as the game but the same plot line, with personal touches added on and things that I felt would be interesting. In this story Commander Shepard has an older brother who joins him in the fight against the collectors, and he pretty much creates his own waves with Miranda mainly. read, enjoy, feed back if you like it you like it if you dont you dont.

Blowing off steam takes less time than Garrus anticipated and now he's adrift.

Kaidan really enjoys the sounds he can coax from Shepard. Pure Shenko smut, nothing more and nothing less.
