An AU where Humanity discovers a crystalline supermaterial that stores insane amounts of energy and their technology radically diverges as a result. By the time the Citadel Races encounter them, humans are a much scarier proposition than in canon. Though not to the point of being completely OP.

It is a long road ahead to ensure a joint Krogan-Vorcha-Quarian-Geth-Human alliance is no longer wishful thinking.

FemShep's investigation of Cerberus' nefarious activities, while she struggles with questions about her own identity. This story is not super canon-y, but it fits with the story, especially if you aren't too personally attached to your version of the characters. It aims to fill in the gaps and is told from Ash's POV. Rated T for blood-curdling swears. FemShep/Ashley (slowest burn).

So they do their part, helping the best they can to prepare the Galaxy for what is to come.

When I write it's common for me to trash chapters that have already been partially or fully written. this scrap yard is so you can all see my forever incomplete work or those I have abandoned. They are mostly not edited so expect lots of errors.

In our darkest hour, we follow the adventures of Ko'le and Shepard as they attempt to break a cycle that has existed longer than any could imagine, going on seemingly impossible missions against seemingly invincible foes.

In a joint effort, the two powers defeated the aliens, but only just. Now, the aliens have returned, and only one organization has any hope of stopping them: the Xenonauts.

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

My AU retelling of the events in ME2, with a completely new take on Cerberus, the Shadow Broker, and the Collectors. Examines the themes of what exactly constitutes death and life, the line between revenge and self-hatred, and how small amounts of light can shine in every darkness. Not a happy ending. Includes my takes on Overlord and LotSB. Rated M for language and violence.

John Shepard is gone. The Normandy is destroyed. Her life as a pilgrim in shambles, she returns home, a shell of who she once was. The coming years will prove to be difficult. Maybe even impossible. Sequel to The Fall of Normandy. Tali/Shepard Pairing. Mature content.
