But he can’t.

Summary
She wanders, and the soft step of her boots on the cold metal floor marks the distance, and then the time, it takes to walk the length of the Normandy during the night shift. Rubber soled metronome beats from her station to Kaidan’s, standing at the empty space until she can’t, until the ghost-limb presence of him is too much, and she needs to walk away.
or: ashley lives. kaidan doesn't. the crew of the normandy helps her to process that.

Summary
Since the debrief after Virmire, Kaidan’s headache had been a persistent and constant throb of pain behind his eyes.
Kaidan felt.. dirty. He felt as if nothing he'd ever done until this moment mattered at all because the reason he was still breathing was because of the flirty smiles and soft glances shared between him and his Commander.

Summary
“I had to choose. I chose you.”
“But why?”
Shepard ground her teeth hard enough to hurt; pressed her lips together as if that would make it easier to hold back the truth. “You don’t want to know the answer to that,” she said, hardly above a whisper. She wanted to tell Ashley—or, she would have, if this were a perfect world where her decisions had no consequences and her gunnery chief would not look at her in disgust.Series

...one name in particular stuck out, making something old and bittersweet tighten in her chest. Standing at the water’s edge on Virmire, joking with Kaidan about what a good vacation destination it would make. And his smile, brighter than a supernova.

Summary
One of the defining moments of the first part of the Mass Effect Trilogy. What would have happened if, somehow, Shepard had saved both Ashley AND Kaidan on Virmire? This is how their lives might have differed throughout that story.
Rated 'Mature' as I DON'T KNOW WHAT I'M DOING! Based on my own playthrough of the original trilogy. This work could go any direction so I have been cautious rather than not. I hope that this will continue but I don't want to promise anything.
