    Summary

    Ottilia (Otti) Shepard woke up after being dead for two years. She was revived by Cerberus, the Council still doesn't care about her or her cause, and the Illusive Man is a dick. She's plagued with nightmares and flashbacks, often lashing out at herself for things frankly out of her control. She's able to keep this under wraps from her crew. That is, until a turian with an obsession for calibrations decides to check on her after noticing the tendency to go directly to her cabin one too many times.

    (In which Shepard is a mess, Garrus panics at the thought of his best friend suffering, and they end up together. Only Shepard is still, in fact, a hot mess.)

    I will make a habit of putting content warnings on chapters containing self-harm as well as an indication of which paragraph you can skip to if you don't want to read that. Please take care of yourself while you read if it's a trigger for you. I won't have it mentioned too often, but it will be in there.

    One other thing, my writing style has evolved as I’ve written this fic. The first 4 chapters stick very close to cannon which means it starts slow. I apologize for that, but I promise it gets better starting at chapter 4 and only improves from there!

    Summary

    Despite his bitterness, his rudeness towards her, his near uselessness, she has loved him, cared for him, given his life new meaning. It is so illogical, so beyond his comprehension, so challenging to everything he has ever believed in, but Liara has always been that, hasn't she?

    Summary

    The Entity, ever hungry for new victims, finds a lonely college girl working the graveyard shift at a convenience store—and takes her.

    Only… it doesn’t stop there.

    In a rare mistake, the Fog pulls the entire store into its realm.

    Now, in a world built on fear and endless trials, a single convenience store stands as something strange: a place where survivors and killers alike can pause, breathe, and pretend—if only for a moment—that things are normal.

    Summary

    Kaidan needs to calibrate his amp, Shepard helps.
    At least they finally get to talk.

    Alternatively, I don't like the talk at the restaurant in ME3 being the 'fix the relationship' talk so here's this instead.
