Where Do You End and I Begin? Part 1 by EratoHayden

Summary
Garrus did not know when he started having these feelings and thoughts about Commander Shepard. One day, he respected her and nearly idolized her for all her accomplishments. The next day he could not stop thinking about her. He would find himself longing for her company and researching things that he never had any interest in before.
This story will cover the events of Mass Effect 1 as told through Garrus's perspective. A few alterations to start their relationship sooner, but mostly canon compliant. Mostly fluff and in between moments from the game.

Unidentified activity at the edge of the Sol system sends Commander Shepard and her ship through a supposedly dormant mass relay. Stranded on the other side, the lives of her crew rest in her hands; a single decision can bring salvation—or death.

Summary
The war is over and Shepard's still alive.
Except she doesn't really understand what war everyone is talking about, or who half of these people are... The last thing she does remember is the Normandy blowing up over Alchera. Which apparently was a few years ago, and things had changed a lot during that time. She doesn't even know which bothers her more: that everyone wants her to be someone she's not, or that Garrus has been strangely distant ever since she woke up...TL;DR: Shepard survives the Crucible but loses all her memories since Cerberus rebuilt her. Shakarian angst and regular angst, all mixed up together into a nice hurt/comfort cocktail. Despite the scary tags this has a happy ending.

Mass Effect kink meme fill.

A story of trust, friendship, denial and overflowing hidden desires.

Summary
Thirty years since first contact. Thirty years of war between the turians and the humans. Shanxi, a human fringe colony in the Traverse, has been the epicenter of the fighting. And humans are in the eleventh hour, about to lose not only their colonies, but their way of life. The only hope they have left is a Prothean beacon found hidden beneath labs-- a beacon which could, if given to the salarians, turn the tide of the war. The problem is: the turians want it just as badly.
Commander Roni Shepard wears her uniform more comfortably than her own skin. But a traumatic injury from the batarians, a client race to the Hierarchy, has left her unsure of everything she used to be secure in.
Lieutenant-Commander Garrus Vakarian thinks outside of the box, much to the chagrin of his commanding officers, his father, and the very establishment he fights for. When he uncovers a dark secret embedded deep within his own military, he holds on to the hope that others can put a stop to it, even if it destroys everything.
When both of them are tasked with securing the Prothean beacon, their lives will intertwine, and everything they thought they knew flies out the window when a mysterious ship also comes to collect.

Summary
From moment to moment Jane felt their relationship shifting, at one they were best friends and the next something more. It reminded her of those old toys with a bird on one side and its enclosure the other and if you spun it quick enough the two images blurred and merged. As she and Garrus spun on the dance floor, their relationship, in all its aspects, blurred until there was no distinction between the edges of one thing and the other, it was just her and Garrus, together.

Summary
After the Battle of Minrathous, Rook left. Letters dwinndled. Words went unsaid. A year later, Lucanis Dellamorte is First Talon of the Antivan Crows: respected, feated, and quietly drowning beneath the weight of power, politics, and ghosts.
Pressured to marry for the good of his House, he agrees to a desperate lie: a fake betrothal to the one person he cannot forget.
Rook is everything he has ever wanted and everything he believes he cannot have. Now, bound by contract, pretense, and proximity, the lines between duty and desire begin to blur, and pretending might be far more dangerous than telling the truth.
