The Arcane Effect by Browncoat_Firefly
Fandoms: Arcane: League of Legends (Cartoon 2021), Mass Effect Trilogy

Summary
Magic meets science. Evolution runs wild. And Shepard? She just wanted a quiet life with Liara and the kids.
Nearly 20 years after the Reaper War, the Citadel has made first contact with Runeterra—a world where Hextech is fuelling rapid advancement…and something far more insidious. A dangerous figure has emerged, pushing biomechanical transformation as the next step in human evolution, threatening not just Runeterra, but the galaxy beyond.
Jane Shepard—galactic war hero, Citadel Councillor, and mum of two energetic asari twins—is sent to investigate. Her welcome committee? A no-nonsense sheriff named Caitlyn, a Zaunite rebel named Vi (who’s definitely not over said sheriff), and a city on the brink.
Old sparks fly. New dangers rise. Runeterra is about to change the galaxy—and Shepard’s not letting it happen without a fight, even if she’s sleep-deprived and covered in glitter.

Summary
Ryan looked in disbelief at what stood petulantly without a suit on the office desk in front of her before she could open her mouth to form any sort of intelligent response.
“Um... I'm Dr. Ryan Bitton, Andromeda Initiative.”
“I have no idea what that is ke’sed,” said the VI, waving a three fingered holographic hand in front of her face. “Where is my grandson?”
K,” Ryan said in a loud, clear, voice in the commanding tone used to address a computer. “Where is Commander Senna’Nir vas Keelah Si’yah?”
“First Officer Commander Senna’Nir vas Keelah Si’yah is currently in the Quarian cryo-bay D-47. All vitals normal. Temperature at 77.2 degrees Kelvin. Would you like to initiate stasis termination, Dr. Ryan Bitton?”
“No,” she said firmly, in that same commanding tone.

Summary
Jane & January grew up in a career military family. Jane fulfilled her family's expectations of what it means to be a Shepard; strong, straightforward, a leader. January on the other hand was too nerdy, meek, and overall uninterested in heroics to embody the family legacy. Happy to support her sister from the sidelines, January was there through the attack on Eden Prime, Saren’s treachery, Jane’s resurrection, and the final fight with the reapers. That is, until her sister didn’t need anyone anymore. Her final death saw to that.

Summary
Organic life was but a random set of mutations, air that had to be conducted to be most efficient. But the structure that kept it in place was showing clear signs of erosion; and through small cracks the wild wind escaped the established path.
Inspired by "A Study in Organics" by Rushofpanic and less so by "Limbo" and "Mass Effect: Synthesis", stories over at fanfiction.net by pirate kit and Jade Tatsu respectively.
Title taken from a song by Ultravox.

Dehydrated, bruised black and blue, but stable.” Dr. Chakwas’s voice pulls Kaidan out of the heated back-and-forth he’d been having with the receptionist since he’d arrived ten minutes ago. His eyes fly up to see Dr. Chakwas peeling black latex gloves off her hands, her face weary but pleased. “Second hallway on your left, four doors down.”

Oath of loyalty by etherealend

Summary
Loyalty: a notion that had always gravitated around Garrus’ life.
“I am loyal to him, as he is loyal to me. And isn’t this the greatest form of love?” Her mother, as the good turian she was, used to say with regard to Castis.
Loyalty. During childhood, boot camp, military service. Loyalty: a virtue every turian was supposed to possess from birth, to the Hierarchy, first and foremost.
Garrus had always, secretly, disagreed. It was something to be earned.
And with her, such had been.
Commander Shepard had secured his deepest loyalty, and only when he saw her for the last time, before the Normandy SR-1 was taken down, did he understand how right his mother was. -
