    Summary

    (Set over the course of ME 2 with the game's plot as an undercurrent.) Shepard's not coping well with waking up as a "Cerberus Cyborg," nor is she coping particularly well with having died in the first place. Garrus is trying to figure out where "Archangel" ends and "Garrus" begins again. The two of them need to get reacquainted--they were friends, after all, before all this.

    Summary

    “Look at me,” Emilie entreats, leaning forward as Nathalie leans away, shrinking in on herself, ignoring the command. Shoulders stiff, hands restless on the bed as if they’d kissed chastely and nothing more. She can’t even hide the wavering of her apology, quiet though it is.

    “What happened, Nathalie?”

    Nathalie closes her eyes, letting out a sigh. Her throat too constricted for words.

    Hand beneath her chin now, lifting it up. Pink-orange light through her eyelids. “Well, this isn’t just jet lag,” huffs Emilie. “I think you can admit that much to me."

    Nathalie opens her eyes, meeting Emilie's with intensity. Tears pooling on Emilie’s hand cupping her cheek.

    Tenderly, Emilie drops her voice. “Out there—Did something happen between you and—?”

    Nathalie makes a mistake. Emilie helps absolve her.

    Summary

    Paris, 183—

     

    Marinette Dupain-Cheng knows that her time as Kagami Tsurugi's accompanying lady and chaperone is temporary by definition. But when she becomes convinced that Kagami Tsurugi's impending marriage is not all that it appears to be, she decides she will uncover every secret hidden away in Graham de Vanily Place—unless the manor's secrets kill her first.

    A Gothic Horror AU inspired by works such as Frankenstein, Jane Eyre, Wuthering Heights, and the entire filmography of Guillermo del Toro.

    Summary

    Thirty years since first contact. Thirty years of war between the turians and the humans. Shanxi, a human fringe colony in the Traverse, has been the epicenter of the fighting. And humans are in the eleventh hour, about to lose not only their colonies, but their way of life. The only hope they have left is a Prothean beacon found hidden beneath labs-- a beacon which could, if given to the salarians, turn the tide of the war. The problem is: the turians want it just as badly.

    Commander Roni Shepard wears her uniform more comfortably than her own skin. But a traumatic injury from the batarians, a client race to the Hierarchy, has left her unsure of everything she used to be secure in.

    Lieutenant-Commander Garrus Vakarian thinks outside of the box, much to the chagrin of his commanding officers, his father, and the very establishment he fights for. When he uncovers a dark secret embedded deep within his own military, he holds on to the hope that others can put a stop to it, even if it destroys everything.

    When both of them are tasked with securing the Prothean beacon, their lives will intertwine, and everything they thought they knew flies out the window when a mysterious ship also comes to collect.
