Author has written 27 stories for Mass Effect.

"The time has come," the Walrus said, "To talk of many things: Of shoes--and ships--and sealing-wax--Of cabbages--and kings--And why the sea is boiling hot--And whether pigs have wings."

--Lewis Carroll, Through the Looking-Glass and What Alice Found There


My foray into FanFiction was result of my desire to find a way to add to the unique worlds of my most treasured sources of entertainment. I tend to over-think and over-analyse that which I enjoy in a way to further understand, so reading author's ideas to see if they matched my own (or gave better insight over my ideas) was a great source of enjoyment for me.

After I spent many hours reading different author's takes on things before I questioned "Why don't I do the same? What do I have to lose?" Thus, I began work on Parable and it's individual parts. As a Mass Effect fanfic, I enjoy hearing from readers how they find my interpretation of the universe Bioware has given us and I am willing to offer advice of my own, finding it more than flattering that someone would like to hear what I have to say.

With that, I thank all reading and hope you enjoy the ride.

I will no longer be posting to this site due to my fics being copied and reposted on another site without my permission.

If you wish to find me and read any updates on ongoing fics, you can find me on Archive of Our Own under the name squiggly_squid.
