"What if?" One of the most dangerous questions in the Galaxy. What if? - A series of random one-shots 1000 words long, updated irregularly when fancy strikes me; opening windows to scenes on alternate timelines of the Mass Effect universe. From small to big changes. What if?

Post-game slight fluff. Shepard and co are surprised by the change in Liara and Javik's relationship in the months since the end of the war. Javik/Liara Rated T out of confusion for safety. Very first fanfic, please be kind.

Ali Walker ends up on a strange planet with her 75er W beetle. But unfortunately this is not her biggest problem. Space Zombies attack and she finds herself unexpectedly alongside of trigger-happy humans and other aliens on board of the Normandy – the battlestarship of the appointed Spectre John Shepard.

Kal'Reegar tries to make the best of the choices he's given. AU Drabbles, Written for the Aria Afterlife September 2014 Writing Contest.

For the Aria's Afterlife September contest. Four things that didn't happen to Garrus Vakarian and one that did. I have no idea if I did this right, but I like the idea. Garrus AU prior to the beginning of the first game.

"Passion often makes a madman of the cleverest man, and renders the greatest fools clever." François de La Rochefoucauld. Liara T'soni, child of the matriarch Benezia T'soni, intelligent and wise among her peers, has fallen to one of the most potent, most common afflictions of her age. A high school crush.

Commander U. Shepard. Earthborn, Sole Survivor who fights like a krogan and thinks like a salarian. During the events of Mass Effect 1 she remains mostly paragon, but dying changes a person. Events of Mass Effect 2 and 3 are mostly renegade. Shepard finds comfort, usually in a bed. ShepxKaidan then ShepxGarrus. (Focusing mostly GarrusxShep throughout.) (Rated M for smut.)

Liara t'soni's the new student at citadel high. No one will give here the time of day that is until a girl named Jesse Shepard takes notice in her. Femshep/liara

Shepard and Krios's romance continues as the suicide mission (ME2) ends, but a darkness looms ahead. An old enemy has found Thane again and she has vowed to kill him no matter what ... and the drell might let her. With the wrong he had done to her, Krios expects nothing less, but is he ready to give up his life and love? Or will his illness get the better of all of them? Please R&R

Garrus is falling for Wrex. Will their love flourish or delve into the depths of despair? Everyone is sure to love Garrex. Bring your friends/family and gather round to read The Forbidden Rectum! Rated M for sexual themes and alien sex.

Shepard se réveille du coma. La guerre contre les Moissonneurs, mais Shepard a tout oublié. Jusqu'à son histoire avec le Major Alenko. Jusqu'à la promesse qu'il lui avait fait... ( Lemon à la fin mais reste encore ... soft. C'est pas détaillé à fond.)

Shepard survives the destruction of the Reapers, and is found in the rubble on the Citadel. These works find him recovering in an undisclosed hospital and using the time to work through more than just the physical recovery he needs. MShep, Adept, Paragon, Shepley. Diary format chosen because I'm writing this as stream of consciousness, so I think that fits best.

Shepard et ramené d'entre les morts, mais il est plus violent que l'ancien Shepard. Rien ne lui résite, rien ni personne. Il veut avant tout sauver la galaxie, mais d'autres désirs l'assaillent également et la violence qui l'habite ne fait rien pour calmer les choses. PWP, lemons, violence. Âmes sensibles s'abstenirs. Shepard(M) X Harem (Miranda/Jack/Tali/Liara/Aria/etc)

Dr. Chakwas has excellent taste in liquor, and Kasumi stocks the best. A friendship is born.

Mercenary might as well be synonymous with revenge... A Fen Shepard story.

Mass Effect drabbles, prompt fics and stories which do not fit into the 'Tinkerer's Tale' universe. Paragon, Renegade, Red, Blue, Green, anything goes.

Shepard has finally defeated the Reapers, and now gets the Happy Ending he deserves. Continuation of my one-shot "Darkest before Dawn", Rated M for the mere presence of Jack, 'nuff said. Rated M for Violence, Language and possibly more if I am up to it. Please Read & Review. Anyway, ROMANCE, FLUFF, READ NOW!

To breach the light, one must pass through darkness. Nicole Shepard is a Sole Survivor/Colonist, raised by a black ops program to be one thing above all else: a weapon. It's her bad luck that she had to live through it; but it's Saren's bad luck that now, the weapon is pointed at him. ME1 novelization featuring a femshep/Liara romance.

Shepard explains why he prefers a particular suit of armor, and his motivation for winning the war. T for threatened violence, brief language and mild suggestive comments, just to be safe. One-shot.

Kaidan/Shepard (MShenko), Kaidan/OC, AU. NOTE: this is an epilogue based on another brilliant fanfic, please read that first. Link in story

Contest entry for Aria's Afterlife, September: 5 chapter AU. Will publish as I can, then edit by the end of September. Enjoy!

the knowledge that it's still there burns inside of her, fuelling her anger.

Her gloved hands reached for the access panel, easily pulling away the plate of hardened metal to expose a few sealed and insulated cables along with the metal handle. She grasped it firmly and tugged, wondering exactly how she was 'supposed' to feel at this moment. T for depression, suicidal thoughts.

There was no way Garrus and Shepard could convince the media that their visit to the orphanage for war refugees wasn't a publicity stunt, so they didn't bother to try. Post ME3, Red!Explosion, Fem Shep surviving, Shakarian, with an edge of fluffiness.

There's nothing more difficult than planning and discussing the worst case scenario, especially with the one you love.
