Even with the Reaper war raging on, it's still the little things that matters. Within the relative peace of her quarters, Shepard seeks to keep herself afloat in these trying times. Taking some time for herself, she decides her hair is too long. Liara helps Shepard takes care it.

Shepard's rise to fame was by blood and sweat through countless battlefields but the he scars he bares came long before he picked up a rifle and swore the oath of service. (Covers pre-enlistment as well as Elysium, Akuze and Torfan arc part of ongoing series I've been delaying for years to put out. M for language and sexual themes)

Liara savours a moment of peace as Shepard sleeps before reality drags them back to face the war with the Reapers.

Katrina Shepard has a lot of specialists to aid in her fight against the Collectors, but not one is trained solely in demolitions. Enter Jax Weaver, former member of Garrus' team on Omega, left for dead and devoid of any loved ones left; a perfect fit for a suicide mission. But that all depends on him not finding a new reason to live for, or a person.

The Reaper War is finally over after many lives have been lost. The question now is, will the lives of our heroes be able to continue? [FemShepXLiara]

Some practice for me in writing out long form first person. A mild dramatization of My most recent run-through of the trilogy taking the form of after action journals to flesh out the character backstory and emotions. Follows Ira Shepard, a Adept Spacer War hero who is for now "Queen of the Girl Scouts"

T'Soni is on the hunt for the Shadow Broker. She asks Shepard for a favour and Shepard can't refuse. But it all goes wrong when Shepard and T'Soni are captured by the agents of the Shadow Broker. As they fight to stay alive, they question the true cost of life and death.

What would you do when you were born into a world with the apocalypse getting closer? Would you spend your life in fear or would you stand up against the odds and try to change your destiny? ( SI , OC , M for violence.)

Part vorcha, part human, Mistake knows she was never meant to be made. But while she is here, she might as well live instead of just surviving. It's not a easy life. Warnings for some gore and language.

Everyone has an opinion over what happened at the sushi bar. Even Garrus Vakarian. Just before going to the Casino Garrus and Shepard talk about important things.

A chance encounter is the start of a new friendship, one that Shepard sorely needs.

A different take on how Thane's romance could have played out through ME3. I am a believer in happy endings, love and the right to live. I will not, therefore, let Bioware simply kill the Drell. Not on my, or my Shepard's watch.

The Reapers are defeated. The nations of the galaxy have succeeded in destroying the ancient exterminators, but at great cost. Hundreds of worlds have been devastated, and the mass relays are severely damaged. A vacuum of power has been opened, and if the galaxy cannot remain united, it will fall divided. Meanwhile, millions of miles from Earth, the crew of a lost ship voyage home.

A story in progress - Mass Effect 2, but slightly different. Commander James Shepard and Chief Ashley Williams will need all their skills if they are to figure out what the Illusive Man is planning and how to stop the Collectors.

Bored after weeks of being stuck in the hospital, Shepard is out for a little excitement, a little exercise after she got discharged. Biotic sparring is the way to go, she decides. And what Shepard wants, she won't stop until she gets.

Everyone thinks the war is the story, but sometimes the real story comes after the dust clears. Just a what-if Shakarian style.

Memini Latin for I remember. Waking up bound and gagged with no memory of how it happened is a sure sign of a concussion or worse. But before Ryder could piece her threadbare memories back together, the door opens and a strange turian is shove in. Who is her new roommate and what the fuck is going on?

A quick pilot to a project in the works. Mass Effect: Reimagined is a retelling of the story with a little creative spin. I will remain faithful to the games; however, I will rework the ending, no "choose your color." I hope this interests you for what's to come!

The plan is set, the stage ready, there is no reason to delay. Win or lose, live or die, the fate of Kadara rests on the hands of Kate Ryder whether she likes it or not.

On January 19th, 1919, the guns of the great powers fell silent at last. Now, over two hundred and fifty years later, with humanity being a new member of a thriving galactic community, the Deutsches Kaiserreich and it's allies face challenges that even Bismarck could never have envisioned.

A group of travelers arrived at the Andromeda Galaxy, hoping to find new homes and explore new worlds. But what they discovered was the truth-about themselves...and beyond. (This is an AU and so requires its own internal logic. So be warned of massive character derailments, OCs and some lore breaks.)

With the Reapers closing in, Miranda Lawson understands well the magnitude of the threat. But as she breaks free from Cerberus and navigates the perils of a fracturing Systems Alliance, can she reconcile the operative she once was with the woman who's fallen for Commander Shepard? Rated M for graphic violence, language, and strong sexual situations.

"Being thrown into the Mass Effect games would be great" they said, admittedly I don't know who "they" are, but if I ever find them I'm gonna smash their teeth out. So by know you should have figured out whats going on, this is my story of trying to stay alive in the Mass Effect universe, am I going to make it, will I find my way home or how I even got here? Probably not.

Interpretation of Fallout: Dust in Mass Effect format. All thought that when the Reapers were destroyed that life would return to normal, all due to the mythical Shepard. But there were some things not even the Shepard could predict, the hopelessness of the future, and the inevitability of galactic destruction. Much like in the original story, there is no happy ending.

AU based upon the premise of Quarians establishing first contact. Romance, minor drama, and a whole lot of shit blowing up! **Being updated now 05/11/2020** **Chapters being rewritten**
