Summary
What exactly was the “research” Garrus did to prepare for Shepard…
Mid-Mass Effect 2 fanfiction focusing on Garrus and Female Shepard's relationship and what their squadmates think about the situation. I wrote this to scratch the itch of "no one has any comment on this turian-human situation? Really?"

Summary
The first news Garrus asks for when they are once again amongst the stars, is of Shepard. The second of his family. He feels guilty, for his lover’s name to be the first on his tongue before his own blood. But his father and sister have each other, and Shepard, he fears - he knows, has no one.

Summary
After six tense months apart, Shepard and Garrus reconvene in the captain's quarters.
“Bring up that bottle of the good stuff with you,” she had told him, and yet it ended up just like their first night together before the Omega-4 Relay: unopened and abandoned on Shepard’s desk.

Summary
You know the story: man meets woman, woman meets man, and together they save the galaxy from wanton destruction. And somewhere in between, there is room for love.
But in the chaos of war and in its messy aftermath, what does it take to make a “happily ever after”?
Falling Slowly is a triptych of vignettes set pre and post war. Inspired by Richard Linklater's Before trilogy of films, the story unfolds through intimate conversations, depicting the small, but meaningful moments that build intimacy across the years.
