The End of it All by A_Cosmic_Elf
Fandoms: Mass Effect Trilogy, Mass Effect - All Media Types

Summary
A post-synthesis dark-fic with a twist. Smutty angst-with-a-happy-ending.
Since the end of the war, Garrus and Liara had spent most of their time hunting down evil clones of Shepard. It seems Cerberus had funded the Lazarus project by selling off Shepard's DNA to the highest bidders. Several clones had been made at many of their facilities, and not all had been accounted for. Each one more maligned and unstable than the last. Now Garrus has a new personal crusade, eliminating every single one.

Summary
Whatever Shepard had thought this little meeting was going to turn out, it absolutely wasn’t a Merfolk, or the fact that he would be transporting one. Now if only he could keep everyone away from the half human creature that was stuck within his cabins fish tank, it would make his life a whole lot easier, especially as the entire galaxy seemed intent on claiming the Mer for themselves.
All he has to do is keep the Mer known as Kaidan safe during transportation. Simple, right? It was just unfortunate that nothing was ever simple when it came to John Shepard.

Summary
Whirling around to face Liara, she laughed. “Marry me.” Her pain was completely forgotten, utterly thrilled by the devastation their combined biotics had caused.
Liara closed the distance between them, obviously not comprehending her words, cupping her cheeks tenderly as she once more frowned, biting her lower lip while she examined Shepard. Not reassured by the lopsided grin or her thumbs up.
“It is ill-advised to combine biotics in battle, the resulting detonation is often very unstable and erratic.”
Or,
Liara's excavation is put on hold when an alien ship crash lands and with it a certain human.Series
