Bruce "Ace" MacKinnon was a damn good fighter pilot. Earning a reputation for crazy piloting skill and tactical genius, traits that pilots rarely have both of, he enters the Normandy crew as a secondary pilot to stop Saren and his Geth. (Tali/OC) (M for violence, sexual themes, profainity, dark themes) My first fanfic, please critique as required! Some plot alteration

What happens if commander Chloe Shepard falls in love with THREE cute girls? The story will follow all three games with my own twists and turns. The true changes start in the second game. I plan to concentrate on the relationships between the crew instead of the missions (we all know them anyway).

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.

In a quiet hospital in Europe, months after the end of the Reaper War, there is a patient. He cannot wake, cannot dream. Every day, a quarian watches over him. Protecting him. Loving him. And hating every moment without him.

Every day, the quarian people inch ever closer to extinction, with any dreams of a new home seeming ever more hopeless... Until Captain Rael'Zorah makes a discovery that will shake the foundations of galactic civilization for eons to come. (Takes place in a reimagined Mass Effect universe)

A continuation of ME: Book II - The Spectre Chronicles. After waking up in a Cerberus space station, Shepard demands answers and finds out that she had died two years prior with the destruction of the Normandy.

The Protheans eliminated the Reapers but their population has dwindled to hundreds and unable to continue their empire. How the story would go without the Reapers. FemShep. Crossposted on Wattpad and AO3.

When I bought the Legendary Edition of Mass Effect I'd expected to re-live the wonder of the game, I never expected to actually 'live' it though

Lt. Commander Shepard, White Death of Elysium, borderline pariah, new commander the SSV Normandy. Hackett tasks her with the thankless, redaction-heavy missions N7s train for. Along the way she forms an unlikely band of misfits into a highly effective army, and discovers just how thin the galaxy's veneers of normalcy are. (An AU/"Reaper-free" TV-Show-format series.)

An ME2 novelization that starts with Shepard's and Tali's reunion at Freedom's Progress. An alternate history where Shepard returns with her and is welcome into quarian society, while struggling with his own inner demons.
