When a technical problem strands Shepard and Garrus on an icy planet, Shepard is forced to face the grim reasons why turians are so rightfully phobic of the cold.

A discussion and theory about asari reproduction and evolution. Please come and express your own theories or ideas!

Falling in love is easy-it's staying in love that's hard. Shepard and Garrus' fight to reconcile their cultural differences is complicated by family and foes conspiring to tear them apart. Sequel to "Where Angels Fear To Tread." Partial story only.

Something woke her. It had been an age since she had been woken by something other than her children. Too long in her opinion. ::Third place winner of the Aria's Afterlife "March Madness Contest: A Day in The Life of..."::

The Threat of the Reapers have been defeated, they now roam the galaxy. Repairing the damage, rebuilding empires. Now that the threat is gone a new and Fragile peace is established. However while in the midst of this new Era, a threat arises in the shadows, seeking to take control of everything. Rated T for violence. ON HIATUS.

When Shepard was first found after the war was declared over, he thought he should have been dead. Probably wanted to be as well. And then...he met her.

Kai Leng could feel the cold hands of death curling around his empty soul as sharp as the omni-blade wound in his gut, but he was not done yet. No, there was one more thing he had to do...

some alliance marines have a night of leave on Illium. lemons with fluff I guess is the proper term for this...

This is my first fanfic, so please give me a chance. The reimagining of the Reaper assault on Earth, told in the perspective of an Alliance new recruit. But he accidentally falls in love with one of the Normandy's crew! How will he survive in order to keep his promise to the one he loves?

Follow the life and adventures of Captain Vanessia and her squad of asari commandos. Things are not always as they seem.; especially with these four lovely Huntresses.

It's the night before Ilos and Liara has come to Shepard's cabin. Shepard, however has a confession to make: she might not be as experienced as everyone thinks she is.

While investigating a Quarian ship that was attacked by heretic Geth, Commander Shepard comes upon a very interesting and vaguely familiar sight. When all was said and done, all he could think was, "No more vid recommendations from Joker..."

Ashley and her husband John Shepard have a discussion about household duties after a particularly bad snowfall hits their neighborhood. Post ME3. One shot.

Just a cute drabble of James Vega and Jack, post war.

This is a slightly alternate universe take on what could happen at the end of Mass Effect 3... if most of Shepard's squad was actually dead, but still pretty lively in spite of that. One of the defining characteristic of Mass Effect has always been the bonds of friendship/emotional ties, and I wanted to play with that concept in a different way.

The Catalyst told Shepard she altered the variables, but she disagrees: every sentient being in the galaxy has altered them. The three solutions presented are not enough, and the commander will be damned if she dies before she negotiates something new. Can the galaxy live with the decision she's made? Or is it only a deal with the devil? [Ch1-2 Revised 7/10/13, Ch6 revised 7/18]

A quiet soldier forced into the limelight, a detective with one last case, a researcher in over her head, a warrior who's given up on his people, a woman who's left home for the first time, and a marine looking to transcend her namesake face the galaxy's greatest threats, both outside and within. OC insert.

Apart of a collection of exactly 500 worded stories. Samara and Miranda discuss a important matter.

No matter how many years have gone by, or at how far science have brought us there are still things in the galaxy that are still hidden in plane sight. Jade has an unexpected landing onto Omega and tries to make the best out of it working at a bar . But what happens when her past starts catching up to her and with her new job and unique looks seems to catch the eye of Omegas queen.

A short story depicting Commander Shepard in a mission set with an asari commando squad. Own characters used, and no, I do not own Mass Effect, or receive benefits from telling stories. So there. Rated T for innuendo, and that I have no clue what the rating system here mean. Let me know in a review or PM, eh?

Somethings are better left in the Dark. Where they belong. But one Shepard may be able to have one follow her. It's intentions unknown, they have nothing more than it's apparent loyalty to Shepard. So what does that mean for eveyone else?

Don't bother Garrus right now, he's calibrating the commander. One shot, mid-ME2. NSFW.

Sam Shepard has been physically and mentally tortured, but she still fought. Before there was a simpler time when she knew a innocent six year old named Miranda lawson they had grew up together and she grew untold feelings for the girl now that they meet again to fight the collectors Shepard has moved on to bluer pastures but has she really moved on? Femshep/Miranda femshep/liara

Things never went Shepard's way. That's okay, she can roll with the punches. But, where can she turn when the military ceases to be an option. Who can she turn to and where will this new path lead her. Her destiny is in the stars, but what road will she travel. Femshep Cerebus AU You Cannot Escape Your Destiny

A storyline that focuses more on the political intrigue and the lives of the ordinary people in a very different mass effect universe. Think more "House of Cards" and less "Saving Private Ryan" There WILL be action, don't worry about that, but that's not what the story will be focusing on. Be warned, very AU. Rated M 'cause it's gonna get heavy later on.
