#4k garrus
Text
Replaying the citadel DLC and in the last fight against the clone Garrus says "The real Shepard would have blown my head off by now" like we all love to talk about Garrus in awe of his danger girlfriend but it's just true. Man* saw a murderous clone of his wife and went "YOU'RE NOT AS DEADLY AS MY REAL GIRLFRIEND IF SHE TRIED TO KILL ME I WOULD BE DEAD". Amazing. I love him so much.

[Fic] Still Touched With Fire [1/6]
Rating: T
Characters/Pairings: Shepard/Garrus, Tali, EDI
Word Count: 4k this chapter, ~24k total
Summary: The world ends. Life goes on. Shepard and Garrus pick up—and occasionally fight through—the pieces.
Notes: This fic would not exist without the help of @jadesabre301, @eponymous-rose, and @fistfulofgammarays. My full acknowledgements are in the fic, but I needed to take this opportunity to thank you again here. I'm so grateful for all of you! <3

Shepard wakes up.
It’s not at all like Garrus expects, momentous and unremarkable, like a crash of lightning followed only by a gentle breeze. The first time she lasts about sixty seconds, barely managing to whisper his name with a voice hoarse from weeks of forced ventilation. He’s clumsy with shock and the juddering rush of relief; he nearly tips over an unused IV stand in his haste and clangs off the side of the cart holding her fleet of medicines. By the time he gets to her hospital bed she’s already on her way out again, the dazed confusion in her eyes heightened by the powerful fatigue, and he’s forced to swallow back everything still left unsaid.
The second time, only a few minutes later, she lasts a little longer; just long enough for Garrus to get hold of his racing heart, his trembling hands; just long enough for her to manage a faint, glorious smile as he leans over and very carefully kisses her, forehead to forehead, then mouth to mouth. Just long enough for her to get out a few questions through rough, swollen lips which he does his best to answer as simply as he can.
The Reapers are gone.

You can read about Akuze and it’s aftermath here.
Commission by the wonderful @redreart who is an absolute pleasure to work with and who captured exactly what I had hoped for. Thank you, dear! I am in total awe. *.*

New Year's fic recs (2021-2022)
It’s about time I put the curations part of my tumblr to work on the fanfics side of things, so here goes: A selection of my favourite fics (with turians) I read in the last half year or so.
Yes I am fashionably late, I was going to post this before new year...
The Primarch's Advisor by hardinginhightown
M, oneshot (9k words), Adrien Victus/Castis Vakarian
A rarepair you didn't know you needed in your life (why have one turian dilf in a fic if you can have two). Hard hitting and packed full of emotion, but also exploring a lot of backstory between them and their sons.
NoisyNoiverns' Kryterius collection
G, 13 oneshots and shortfics, Kryterius
A set of 13 Kryterius fics, mostly set in a no-reaper AU, spanning their long lives. Everything from light hearted joking about to the sweetest of fluff. I would particularly highlight “When the Lights Go Down”, also highly recommend checking out their Desolas/Abrudas pieces.
Observations upon waking by interventionsandlullabies
M, oneshot (4k words), Shakarian
Aptly tagged: “Read for free therapy.” A collection of snapshots told through Garrus’ eyes, from the soft to the sharp realities of the war. Fantastically written, intimate and personal.
Loyalty Mission: The Coldest of Hearts by Orionis
T, shortfic (38k words), Shakarian
Set in ME1, early on when they are first working together, this one won’t punch you in the gut with a few truckloads of emotion, though it is a very interesting study of Garrus’ character and Shepards struggles with him (and the rest of her crew).
Same Song, Different Verse by suddenlycomics
T, WIP (12k words), Femsep Garrus and Tali
An exciting AU where Shepard never joins the Alliance, Garrus is a Spectre, and they meet Tali on Earth.
The Softer It Falls by BronzeAgeLove
T, shortfic (10k words), Lorik Qui'in/Lilihierax
Complete with lovely illustrations by heavenlyeros. Gentle, slow, and introspective. Really wonderfully written all around, a gem of an introduction to a(nother) rarepair you didn't know you needed in your life.
Points of Contact by buskie
E, WIP longfic (32k words), Shakarian
A first contact AU fic where Shepard and a certain lost Turian fall in love, comes with plenty of seriousness, silliness, shenanigans, and some smut to top it off.
I'll See You Again by courtmartialed
M, WIP shortfic (5k words), Shakarian
Another First Contact story, this time in a Reincarnation AU. “The captain and lone survivor of that crew is Shepard, though her name is not Shepard yet. And the lone Turian, piloting the ramshackle dinghy that finds her ship, is Garrus.”
On Galaxy's Edge by DatSonyat
T, oneshot (1.5k words), Saren and Desolas
This piece still floors me every time, Saren being this soft just stops my heart mid beat, honestly it's something I've lately felt more and more need to indulge myself in. It's so slow but hits like a fully loaded train, all the emotion is expertly hidden just under the surface. Probably one of the best pieces of writing I've had the pleasure of reading, period.

Happy Holidays everyone! To commemorate the season, I made a Mass Effect 2 version of an official holiday desktop wallpaper that BioWare released back in 2007! I have it available to download in 4 different aspect ratios (16:10, 16:9, 5:4, 4:3). Hope you enjoy, and you can download your wallpapers here.
Here is the original, which you can download from the Wayback Machine (in four sizes!):
