Of Reapers and Burnt Beginnings by Crescent_Immortality

Summary
Trying to save the universe isn't just point and shoot. It's dangerous, gritty, and painful. It's sleepless nights, loss of appetite, addictions, endless politics, and injuries. But there are bright moments where your friends and crew are there for you, when connections are made, and where you love each other unconditionally. You are all brethren born of ash and flame and baptized in battle together. You are shaped by wit and banter, alcohol and war stories. This is the story of how deep friendships go, how they were forged, and how the beginning of the end molds Shepard and Garrus into one solid front against it.

Summary
A Shepard and Garrus romance spanning all three games, but it is NOT a rehash or novelization of game content. Mostly takes place between the in-game scenes to flesh out and fill in the gaps of the Shepard/Garrus romance. Garrus POV. Colonist, war hero, paragon Shepard. Angst, humor, pining, and a lot of mushy stuff. I hope you enjoy!

Summary
Molly Thorne moved from Earth to the Citadel to study xenosurgery. To pay for school she works part-time as a dancer at Red Nova, a seedy night club run by a former Alliance Lieutenant with a reputation for brutality and a quick temper. She's in the last semester of her program with a promising position at Huerta Memorial acting as her light at the end of the tunnel, but the situation at Red Nova worsens every day. Avinthus Flos, a mysterious turian with no clan markings and no job to speak of, only serves to add to her mounting stress with his poor attempts at getting into her good graces. With her dream job just around the corner all she wants is to study for her finals in peace, but life rarely goes the way we want it to, something she will have to learn to accept.

Summary
My deep turian love seems to have caused this to happen. Spanning all three of the Mass Effect's, not hinged on exact canon but might dabble a bit in it. Might be more characters involved or maybe not depending. I really have no idea where this is going (sort of) there is an ending but her getting there will be a rough ride. You have been warned. Regular updates on Sunday's.
Bioware owns all characters I am just running around doing crazy things.

Summary
Shepard faces seemingly insurmountable odds after Cerberus does the impossible. Her resurrection comes with a price; two years lost, a team she doesn't know and can't trust and an email filled to bursting with dossiers. Overwhelmed, she seeks out the one person in the galaxy she knows for certain she can trust. An ancient asari, snarky, full of venom and secrets even Shepard has yet to discover.
Now, as Shepard embarks on the ominous task of hunting and defeating the Collectors, she turns to her ancient guardian for information and support. The woman resides on Omega, after all, where two of her dossiers are to be found.
This has turned into a full fanfic well beyond the snarky asari. She continues to put her two cents in here and there, however.
There are and will be some AU bits tossed in here.

Summary
A colony slaughtered, it's citizens transformed. A Spectre dead as well, and the Geth suddenly, unexpectedly far past the Perseus Veil.
Garrus Vakarian took Saren's actions on Eden Prime very personally. He dropped his entire life in the recycler for a chance at answers, and preferably justice.That's not normal. Unless, perhaps, the losses and betrayals were personal.
Maybe... they were.
Begin the tale of Mass Effect a little early, starting in 2167, T-16 years until Eden Prime.
A story of talented people who are divergent, alien, heroes of their own stories, and victims of the times. Featuring: Caffeine addictions. Everyday life as a Spectre. Unconventional interrogations. Boring council meetings. Old frenemies. Ancient artifacts. Life after death. The people behind the legends. Bullets. Many, many bullets.

Summary
Summary:
Freed from indoctrination upon Sovereign's destruction, Saren Arterius spent months in incarceration for his crimes against the galaxy. In the meantime, the Council still refuses to take the Reaper threat seriously, despite Commander Shepard's death.Saren is too dangerous to be kept alive, yet too valuable to destroy. They found an alternative, but forgot to account for one minor issue: They're both hard to kill.
Excerpt:
Nothing mattered. He had lost years of his life because the Council didn’t see a need for him.Their best agent.
He’d… he’d dedicated his life to them and for what? To be thrown under lock and key until they saw a specific need for him. Like he was some tool to be thrown in the back of a workshop to collect dust and be forgotten? He wasn’t even sure if it was anger he felt or disappointment or just unadulterated rage. Two Spirits-damned years.
