Remarkably Strong-Willed (femShep version) by Vespaer
Fandoms: Mass Effect - All Media Types, Mass Effect Trilogy

Summary
Commander Shepard has been a lot of things: a hero, a lover, a commercial, a corpse. Her face was on recruitment posters and cereal boxes and magazines, even a VI. But one thing that face never got to do was cry. She went through something as viscerally profound and life-altering as saving an entire galaxy... but was never allowed to shed one single, healthy, emotionally stable tear. I wrote this fic to fix that.

Summary
The second most awful thing about the way it happens, when it happens, is how... inhuman it is. Ashley has seen far more than her fair share of people collapse, in injury or death, and when an organic person falls over, there’s a strange but inherent logic to it. The way their knees and ankles buckle, the way even on the way into unconsciousness they try to protect vital bits from getting too badly injured on the way down—a downed person still looks like a person.
But what happens to EDI is not like that, at all.

The Last Prothean by Sandetiger

Summary
Starts immediately after the Crucible was activated, from the POV of Liara T'Soni aboard the Normandy as the crew is trapped planetside. The focus of this fic is going to be primarily Javik and Liara's relationship (no romance there, sorry, but I am really invested in a deep friendship that has the potential to evolve) and how it develops over the years. It's a personal story of how I want to explore Javik's trauma and integration into a world without the Reaper threat - something he's never known. What kind of person is there, beneath a lifetime of war? And what kind of role can he fulfill in a world where Javik the Soldier is no longer needed?
"I do wonder, sometimes. Living a life of constant war, taking life in every battle. It shapes me, as stone is shaped by the one who carves it."
NOT ABANDONED, JUST WIP. I can't promise that this will be super regularly updated, because I'm still mapping out a lot of how I want to progress, but I know how this is going to end, so there is that lol. And just like my other fic: feel free to drop a line, I was shy about posting this but I'm not shy about talking with y'all! I do love the validation of knowing people are enjoying and engaging with my story writing!

Summary
He did miss it, sometimes. That particular brand of closeness. The feel of someone else’s hands on him.
But there were more important pieces to being in a relationship. Pieces that were not negotiable. Things like trust, and communication, and consent.
No matter who had taught James otherwise.

Forgive the Insubordination by 2bfrank (sylvanrogue), sylvanrogue

Summary
Shepard sent him away so she could run for the beam and save the galaxy, but Garrus Vakarian won't be left behind that easily.
--
I would do just about anything for her if she asked.
Now, though, she's ordering me to sit on the sidelines for the most important mission of our lives, to wait around and hope she can handle whatever is up there on her own. I guess I've found the one thing I won't do for her.
A good turian would follow a bad order from his commander, but I've never been a good turian. I'll be damned if I start being one now.

Summary
In the months since he’d arrived back in London, Kaidan’s daily routine had not varied much. Every morning he woke up in the barracks at 06:00 whether he wanted to or not. The civilian he was hot-bunking with wouldn’t be off the clock for another two hours, he wished he could sleep longer, but his mind wouldn’t let him. He’d yet to actually meet the person who shared the cot with him, the only evidence of their presence being the mess of sheets he returned to each night 23:00 on the dot. You could practically set your watch by the man.
Or, Kaidan just needs someone to shake up his routine a bit.

Summary
Somewhere during the events of ME3, Joker starts keeping a Bingo Card for all the insane stunts his Commander pulls.

Welcome welcome to another installment of me being salty we didn't get a Joker romance. The romance bit in this one is there if you squint.
This fic exists only thanks to @veil_of_smog. She was the one who came up with the Bingo Card prompt and my brain just spat out this thing immediately after. Thank you, Sam, for being my friend and my muse!

Summary
In 2170, Mindoir was attacked by slavers. Hundreds were taken captive, hundreds more were slaughtered. Kiryn was the only Shepard to make it out alive. For years, he buried his grief, kept his head high, and did whatever he needed to survive.

But when the war ends and he escapes his batarian masters to the Citadel, the discovery that his twin sister is alive and well might just be the thing that breaks him. The Hegemony's greatest assassin will remember what it means to have something to lose.

Summary
"I would like to be the air
that inhabits you for a moment
only. I would like to be that unnoticed
& that necessary."
- Margaret Atwood, "Variation on the Word Sleep"The galaxy is forever changed after Commander Jane Shepard destroyed the Reapers. But it isn't just the galaxy that was changed: its inhabitants were too, some for better, others for worse. Most people don't know what happened to the commander, not even her boyfriend, Major Kaidan Alenko. What he does know is this: no matter how far away the two of them are, the two of them will rebuild their lives together.
