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. Parallel AU, Part 3 in progress.

Coming to terms with being reborn? Doable. Finding out you're in the Mass Effect universe? Slightly more difficult. I know I'm no soldier material but I want to do what I can to help save the galaxy. To that goal I will become one of the worst beings in human society. A businessman and politician. A SI/OC-story of a different kind.

"A Single Event within a species history can turn a species into something that would of once been seen as an impossibility to those watching said species. And yet the History of Humanity seems so redolent in contradictions that would make their Ancestors quake in Horror for what they would eventually Become" - Matriarch Lindaya Professor of Species History. !AU FANFICTION!

What If story and also AU If they was a Alliance between the Turians and the unknown people calling themselves the Players. If it existed before the unification war or before they met the Citadel races. All other things are Bioware except for Oc which are mine.

Action conspiracy thriller set between Mass Effect 1 & 2. Deep, fun & complex OCs galore, most carried over from my first story. Fast-paced, action-packed and filled with canon side characters taking full advantage of ME's rich universe. A little bit of angst/trauma. Some bloody but not gory violence, a little foul language and some seduction & romance. Full synopsis in my bio.

You all know how these stories go. OC gets inserted into Mass Effect and fights alongside Shepard to save the galaxy. Wait what? What do you mean that it's more complicated than that? What could possibly change? What do you mean "the main character isn't human"? Well, what are they then?

Duty schmooty booty. Sylvia died. Came back to life. No big deal right? Well of course it was, but she had bigger things to be terrified of. Like Liara. A confident Liara.
