Author has written 10 stories for Mass Effect, and Dragon Age.

23 year old copywriter from England. I'm very grateful to anyone who reads my stuff, and I hope you enjoy them as much as I enjoyed writing them. I love the Mass Effect series and pretty much anything Bioware cooks up.

Also, if you like Dragon Age and Mass Effect you should totally check out my blog. Its mostly shameless reblogs of Cullen looking cute, Garrus too when he's got my attention. Yep... Bioware Addict

(Hello! I realise I'm very slow with updating, but now I'm afraid War Heroes AND The Inquisitor's Reports are going to have to go on a short hiatus. Please hear me out before you get mad though! I'm having to move across the country in a week for my job, and once there I'll be working 9am - 10pm with only one day off a week. Though I'll try to write in my spare time, I really don't think I'm going to manage to achieve much. No doubt I'll be too exhausted.

Luckily though, this isn't a permanent situation. And after four weeks (might be eight, I won't be told for a while yet) my schedule will be more or less back to normal.

Thank you for reading my stories. And a massive thank you for being so patient when it takes me a while to update and for leaving lovely reviews. I am determined to finish this off, and hope to make it up to you all when my intense work schedule is finally over. If I get any more news to tell you I'll post it on my profile.)

Sense and Flexibility by Roarkshop reviews
The story of Garrus and Femshep as told by me. Lots of off-canon. Sequels incoming. TW: It's been brought to my attention that some of Garrus' more animalistic behavior in some scenes have caused panic attacks for victims of abuse. I am so sorry for anyone who had a similar reaction. SO sorry. I would like to make any new readers aware of this beforehand. Thank you.
