    Summary

    Commander Shepard and Garrus Vakarian. To those around them, an inevitability. But when two people who have trusted each other so unconditionally are afraid to take things beyond friendship, sometimes the only question left to ask is why? This story is a "What if" that details how their romance might have gone if they did nothing until the end of the Reaper War.

    Unrepentant fluff and romantic erotica. Had planned 2 chapters, but it ran away on its own so more are coming.

    Please note: This is Shepard after the Reaper Wars. She has been through a hell no one can imagine, was physically crushed, emotionally scarred and lives with the guilt that trillions died and she could do nothing to stop it. She doesn't want to be strong anymore. She doesn't want to be Shepard anymore.

    I have marked this work as Complete for the time being. I am working on my other Shepard/Garrus story, and while I am still working on the next chapter of Why, progress is slow and I am not sure when it will be finished.

    Summary

    My AU retelling of ME1 in a darker, sinister universe. Much darker and more realistic views of the SA and the Citadel Council, a more dangerous, involved Cerberus, and a more conflicted Saren and Benezia.

    Changes much of the ME1 dynamic to remove plot holes with more focus on politics, military strategy, and space combat.
