Mass Effect - Future Imperfect by MizDirected reviews
Jane Shepard wears many labels. Survivor. Hero. Tiny. Fierce. Smart-mouth. Loyal. Mad woman. The truth, however, is never simple. Stopping Nihlus from leaving the Normandy alone, Shepard throws the galaxy down a rabbit hole that can only end in a dark and brutal war. AU canon-divergent. M for language, sex.

OSaBC II : That Which Cannot Die by LogicalPremise reviews
My AU retelling of the events in ME2, with a completely new take on Cerberus, the Shadow Broker, and the Collectors. Examines the themes of what exactly constitutes death and life, the line between revenge and self-hatred, and how small amounts of light can shine in every darkness. Not a happy ending. Includes my takes on Overlord and LotSB. Rated M for language and violence.

Transcendent Humanity by Solaris242 reviews
Humanity never developed FTL. The Prothean archives contained no technology, no Element Zero, just a warning. Isolated from the rest of the galaxy for two thousand years, restricted to their only system, how will humanity have changed when they first meet the Turians? AU, alternate history of humanity and First Contact.

Queen's Gambit Accepted by fahRENheit2006 reviews
Specialist Samantha Traynor, one of the Alliance's best and brightest, was relatively content working in Alliance R&D. But then... the Reapers came. Full of action, profanity, sarcasm, friendship, and gripping chess matches that will leave you breathless. Ch 31: Sam suffers through PT but creates a better way to have deeper conversations with Shepard.

Victory over the Reapers was achieved only at a steep galactic and personal cost – billions are dead and the galaxy hovers on the verge of anarchy.

Pressure by Midnight Lion reviews
The Reapers are here. Shepard struggles with fear for her mother, guilt over being alive, and interspecies grudges. She can't unite the galaxy, or sort out her love life. At least she has a good friend to lean on. F!Shep/Kaidan, F!Shep/Thane

Of Sheep and Battle Chicken by LogicalPremise reviews
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. Pairing is FShep/Liara. Rewritten through Chapter 65 so far.

Dark Energy AU: Best Left Said by Melaradark reviews
An AU based on my DE series. What if Del Shepard's past had been different? What if she were the one who was the shy scientist...and Liara was the hardened commando? How would it change them, and would the love that so defined them in DE blossom once again? Old characters and new ones follow a story that is *NOT* ME or DE canon. Enjoy!

No Impact, No Idea by OriginalAlcy reviews
It's no good being able to drill someone from a hundred metres if you can't pull the damn trigger. A certain ex-Cerberus Operative is playing games with Ashley Williams and it's the one battle the marine isn't equipped to fight. An expansion of the Miranda/Ashley romance in Catalyst of Fate.
