An expanded version of that conversation you have with Joker after the fall of Thessia in ME3. I just felt that the responses on the dialogue wheel weren't up to the sheer anger and angst the situation called for. Some Explicit Language, fluff and angst. Shoker.

Shepard has one last chance at life. Without galaxy-ending events sucking Shepard in, she has to do something that she has long since feared; facing her own feelings in all aspects of her life. The loss of her loved ones, her life altering choices and even her own death. Twice fold. And people wanting to collect on their investment. Post ME3.

This story is about an OC protagonist and other characters (OC and some of the Normandy crew) having to face a new "threat" together. Set post Reaper War. Shepard chose to destroy the Reapers. (Listed as complete, but DISCONTINUED.)

Hannah Shepard with her husband Derek Shepard and David Anderson are sent to Shanxi with the second fleet to clear out the Turians. But what Hannah doesn't know is the fear she will feel when her husband is MIA and she is trapped with a Turian Specter who calls himself Garloc Vakarian. Together the two learn about their races and work together to survive. Can Hannah survive?

It wasn't destiny that placed Sgt. Kristin MacArthur as a crew member of the Normandy, it was a clerical error. Surviving the Collector Attack was by sheer dumb luck. She shouldn't be at the battle for earth, someone else someone better should be. The only part of her life that wasn't a mistake was the Turian Rebel that stole her heart.

When Shepard meets the Catalyst, she finds the options it gives her to be monstrous. She instead attempts to sabotage the Crucible. However, her choice leads to the Crucible firing, creating a massive distortion, in space and time which sends her mind into her own past. Using her knowledge she plans to fix her mistakes, and defeat the reapers on her terms, not theirs. On Hiatus

The Story of Tom Shepard. Chapter 1: Garrus receives information on Lantar Sidonis and is then contacted by Kelly Chambers, who needs help with Grunt. Chapter 2: As Liara confesses that she was responsible for him being with Cerberus, Shepard cannot forgive or forget the asari's betrayal. Chapter 3: Miranda finally makes her peace with Shepard.

Everyone, even the most hardened heroes and badasses of the universe need to cool down sometimes. A conspiration to make things better. Probably. Enjoy a confused Anderson, the inner workings of Legion and an embarrassed Cheerleader.

Amidst the Alliance, the Cerberus terrorists, the Spectre betrayals, the Collectors mystery, and the Reaper myth lies one solid question: can't a guy make a honest buck?

Just a thing from my Shepard's universe. "Do you know the Commander?" Vega asked curiously. "I used to." Kaidan's response had been something that bothered James since he'd uttered them. It wasn't until Liara was on board that he got around to asking. Shade Shepard/Kaidan. femShep, vanguard, paragon even though it doesn't really matter. I still own nothing.

Speeches, farewells, denials, howls of grief and of rage. Those that knew Shepard in life remember the Commander in death. Shepard's gender and any interpretations of romance are intentionally ambiguous and left up to you. Disclaimer: Reading these shorts whilst listening to "An End for Once and For All" carries with it a heavy risk of tears.

Prompt for continuation after "Poetry Slam" - where Shepard can't decide between Thane and Garrus, to continue the story with a polyamory theme. Romance, smut, fluff, wish fulfillment and "oh fuck, that did not work out well..." AU. Non-con in later chapters. Narrated on YouTube under the name Recidiva Quixotic.

AU. The Illusive Man wants Shepard to pick up a mysterious weapon found in the ice on Earth that could help in the fight against the Reapers. What they find is not what they expected. Follows the events of Mass Effect 2. Brace yourselves for a surprise at the end of Ch 1 but trust me, give it a chance. If you enjoy referential humor (similar to Deadpool) then this could be for you!

EDI tries to understand what it means to be in a relationship, and Joker has no idea how to answer her questions. But a dangerous side-mission...and a nosy crew...might just help them figure it out. Joker/EDI; light drama & fluff. In-progress. T for language, will change to M eventually.

Jack shows us the importance of proper weapon maintenance on both her shotgun and Miranda. Stand alone story. Jackanda smut, NSFW, Mature audience only...you have been warned. Fun little FemSlash so enjoy!

A new Challenge for those that wish to try it

My first specific foray into the romance genre, involving the retired Commander Jennifer Shepard and Liara T'soni (wedded) making a new life together after the Reaper War. This short one-shot is related with the universe of A Leader to All, but not necessarily contiguous with it. Rated T for referencing gestation.

One hundred years after the Reaper War, a time of rebuilding. Large areas of the Traverse are being annexed as official Citadel space due to strong lobbying by humanity. The Batarian Hegemony has begun pushing back against the human expansion bringing new conflicts. Among these conflicts an old betrayer rears it's head and a new hero is forged in blood to meet this challenge.

With the Reaper War ended, and a hero lost, the galaxy faces a possible new threat that could be even more devastating than the last. All the while, Garrus Vakarian hangs on to a slim hope that he has not been robbed of his Commander, mentor, best friend and the love of his life. Set post ME3 Destroy ending. Shakarian. Rated M for language, sexual references and eventual violence.

The Prothean Archive on Thessia activates under it's failsafe programming. The Prothean's have not returned to Thessia; the Empire's last desperate plan, sending millions of Protheans into cryogenic sleep has failed. The VI's programming directs it to contact the descendants of the 'Followers of Athame' and continue the uplift project begun 10,000 years earlier.

Nightmare-induced insomnia leads Shepard to discover things she didn't know about a close member of her crew. One-shot set in ME3.

Commander Shepard and Miranda are thrown together to face down the Collectors, and their masters, the Reapers. The two have a hard time gelling initially, particularly as he's Alliance and she's Cerberus, plus the fact that they've never met ... or have they?

A quick look into Shepard's relationship with her mother. Note: Reference to a family for Earthborn Shepard, so a little bit of bend on canon.

This is a rework of a prior fiction. It is alternate universe, so no Reaper threat, the kids are in college, and there is mystery and romance abrewin. May be moving to M soon for intense scenes/language. Shakarian/Shepley

The Collector's are all dead, and the Normandy's crew lick their wounds on the rogue station of Omega. Little do they know about the true horror of what dark conspiracies and new evils they will encounter. Blood will run, Hierarchies will burn, love shall be tested, and live's will be lost. Truly we all share the guilt for the Sins of Man.
