Summary
‘He was part of the team that tracked down that rogue Spectre. After the mission, he himself signed up for Spectre training, only to leave the whole thing and come here.’
‘Revenge killing?’
A brief pause on the other end. ‘You are… really comfortable saying that. But no. At least I don’t think he has a particular target. How did you know it was about killing?’
‘A guy like that gets a taste of “freedom”, things get out of hand sooner or later. I am going to need his actual name if you want a background check.’
‘No need. Erash was colleagues with him back on the Citadel.’
‘And she is a reliable source in this case.’
‘I survived almost two standard decades in academy; you do not get to question my sources.’
‘So you just believe her because she is hot.’
Tiken audibly sighs. Some typing can be heard and he soon presents the answer. ‘Garrus Vakarian.’A half-serious retelling of Garrus' time on Omega. I kept the names and the confirmed species for his team members from Homeworlds 3.

Summary
Rio likes to think he's an intelligent, rational person. He gets good grades at university. He is somewhat competent at home. He can predict what someone's reaction to any given situation will be with 99.67% accuracy.
Unfortunately, he knows full well that Kanret breaks any attempts at rationality he might have. Only natural when he obsesses over him so intensely; Kanret is lovely and kind and gentle and perhaps a little stupid, but he wears it well. He loves him, of course.
And now Kanret has found a partner. A human partner.
And Rio doesn't know what to do.

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.

A retelling of Mass Effect: Andromeda with heavy focus on the Jaal/Ryder romance.
