Summary
“Hey, Bull?” Athesa called. “Can I ask you something? Something personal, I mean?”
“Go for it.”
“You’ve had to fill a lot of different roles—Ben-Hassrath spy, Tal-Vashoth mercenary, Inquisitor’s bodyguard. How do you keep it from getting, you know…loud?”
"Easy," Bull said. "I kill things."
"I kill things most days. It hasn’t helped.”
“And there's your problem. You’re killing them for the Inquisition, not you. You need to find something enormous and kill it for the sake of getting into a nasty fight and not having to think for a while."
Athesa considered his advice. Kill something big. She could do that.

Scenes from Skyhold and beyond, featuring friendship, forgiveness, and falling in love. Oh, and dragon fighting.

Summary
Garrus' thoughts and feelings regarding Commander John Shepard were easy to understand and explain: He respected and admired the human Spectre and would follow him into hell in a heartbeat. His feelings regarding his crewmate and friend, Lieutenant Jane Shepard, however, weren't as clear cut. She'd taken up residence in his head and wouldn't leave.

Summary
A Shepard and Garrus romance spanning all three games, but it is NOT a rehash or novelization of game content. Mostly takes place between the in-game scenes to flesh out and fill in the gaps of the Shepard/Garrus romance. Garrus POV. Colonist, war hero, paragon Shepard. Angst, humor, pining, and a lot of mushy stuff. I hope you enjoy!

Summary
Sara Ryder wakes to find her father is dead, named her Pathfinder and her brother is in a coma. On top of all this, she must navigate a strange, new galaxy whilst undertaking a task she had no preparation for. No big deal. It's not like she's got entire species expecting her to find them new worlds, delivering on the "Golden Worlds" promise that the Initiative sold them. And it's also not like she's got new aliens to deal with and Kett to kill. She can totally manage. No problem, whatsoever.
A retelling of Mass Effect: Andromeda with heavy focus on the Jaal/Ryder romance.
CURRENTLY BEING EDITED/REWRITTEN. SEE FINAL CHAPTER FOR FULL INFORMATION.

Shadows & Daggers: A Rogue's Love Story by RoksanaLyasin

Summary
The war against Corypheus is taking its toll, and Cullen is struggling to balance his role as Commander of the Inquisition with the personal demons that haunt his dreams and thoughts. He finds himself wishing for something more, for something beyond the missions and battle. He never expected that 'more' could come in the such a wicked and sultry package, whose relentless flirting sets his cheeks burning scarlet, and sends a thrill of fire through his veins.
Born into the Orlesian nobility, most would expect Valina Voclain to live a life of luxury. The Maker, however, had a different path in mind for the skilled Assassin. Travelling far and wide throughout Thedas, Valina's skills as a mercenary have garnered her a formidable reputation. She never expected that a masquerade ball at the Winter Palace may hold more than a simple scandal, but the game always provides a few surprises, and the Inquisition's presence is only one. She can't deny that the flustered Commander's advances intrigue her, nor can she deny her attraction to his golden eyes that set her blood aflame with desire.

Summary
Reya Cadash didn't fit in the Inquisition. She was a thug, a criminal, a low life. She knew it was only a matter of time before they realized this and sent her away. Which would be a shame since she found herself drawn to the straight laced commander, even though he wanted nothing to do with her.
Cullen found Reya's fierce tenacity compelling. But he couldn't stop his own insecurities from holding him back.

Summary
Shepard and the Normandy Crew are tasked with safely transporting a very rich human back to the Citadel. When he hits on Shepard, she lies about having a boyfriend to avoid offending him and failing her mission. The Normandy Crew isn't at all surprised that she picked Garrus for this fake relationship. In fact, no one on the ship is convinced it's fake, except Garrus and Shepard themselves.
Cue these two idiots trying to convince everyone that this is definitely fake and not at all real, and that warm, lovey feeling in their chests? Fake, too.
Or is it?
