The only reason Midoriya got to talking with Ashido was because his bandages needed reapplying. Still, this small hand of fate was all that was needed to spark a friendship and a far closer bond between the two classmates. I honestly have no idea what their ship name is, so I'ma call it MinaDeku

The Force often works in strange ways. That was never truer when Darth Vader, not Anakin Skywalker, found himself on Naboo during the Trade Federation occupation. How is the Republic to react to a Sith Lord that has committed no crime and is aiding Queen Amidala? And did I mention Vader wasn't the only one brought along the ride? No, it's not Luke or Leia.

Mocked by her peers and a failure as a mage, now she finds herself alone in a foreign land ravaged by a civil war. With the world on the brink of destruction her life couldn't get any worse, could it? Reverse summon AU.

A few minor and realistic changes in the decisions made by the leaders of humanity drastically altered the path of Citadel Space and the Reaper War. This is the story of caution and planning over recklessness, the path of the juggernaut over the glass cannon. This is the story of humanity as it should have been. A power worthy of its Council seat, and one the Reapers can't ignore.

The Call not only knows where Izuku Midoriya Lives, it is willing to send the Tick to Call in a Carry Out Order for a Sandwich Platter of Justice. Now Izuku is on the path to become a hero just like All Might. Except for the minor legal technicality of being a wanted vigilante.

John Shepard has only one truth left. That the cycle must be broken no matter the cost. The price will be more than anyone should have to bear but the prize is the future, for those he cares for and for all life in the galaxy.

Voldemort was defeated on Halloween 1981, but Lucius Malfoy faked his survival to take over Britain in his name. Almost 20 years later, the Dark Lord returns to a very different Britain - but Malfoy won't give up his power. And Dumbledore sees an opportunity to deal with both. Caught up in all of this are two young people on different sides.

A new race was discovered and annihilated. A century passed and Citadel space forgot, but Humanity never did.

Is a second chance enough? Instead of the Catalyst's choices, Shepard lucks into a cosmic loophole. Thrown back to the very start of her Spectre career, she has to try and save the galaxy again from the Reapers ... but does she really know what's coming? 2015 NaNoWriMo winner!

Speeches, farewells, denials, howls of grief and of rage. Those that knew Shepard in life remember the Commander in death. Shepard's gender and any interpretations of romance are intentionally ambiguous and left up to you. Disclaimer: Reading these shorts whilst listening to "An End for Once and For All" carries with it a heavy risk of tears.

Commander Zach Shepard begins the adventure of his life as he becomes the first human spectre and is sent to capture Saren Arterius before he brings destruction upon the galaxy. During this journey, he'll make friends, destroy enemies, grieve for his losses on Akuze, and find new meaning with the help of a quarian engineer. Eventual Shepard/Tali romance. V,L

Short story for the May contest on Aria's Afterlife forum: With the Mass Relays destroyed, many colonies have been cutoff from galactic society. It is the crew of the I.S.V. Kongo to find them.

Heavily AU. Thanks to a cold, humanity never discovers the Prothean ruins on Mars, and barely develops Mass Effect technology. They step out onto the galactic stage after the Reapers have harvested every other species, and find the crumbs left behind by the turians, asari, and salarians. Now they must adapt to fight a foe who won't be seen for far longer than human history.

For the Aria's Afterlife "Under-served Character" contest. A look back at the history of Zaeed Massani, from picking up his first assault rifle pre-Contact to the end of the Reaper war. Selected in memory of Robin Sachs, RIP. Lots of swearing, which you should expect from Zaeed Goddamn Massani.

The Winchester brothers head to Chicago to check up on what seems to be your average, run-of-the-mill monster killing. Unfortunately, nothing is ever simple when Chicago's only openly practicing wizard P.I. is involved. As the three men follow the ever-confusing trail, one thing is clear: the fate of the world may not be at stake in this one, but it'll sure be a pain in the ass!

Shepard and Tali's relationship grows during the fight with the Reapers, but that doesn't mean their story ends after they deal with the ancient synthetics. Reapers were simple; you can just shoot them in the head area. But that doesn't work for fans, admirals, or the past. Focuses on Tali/Shep pairing, rated M for sexual content and language.

Centuries after the end of the Reaper War, a respected asari scientist and political leader tells the story of her youthful adventures with the legendary Shepard. Fighting to save the galaxy is one thing, but figuring out human motivations can be much harder. Science fiction, action-adventure, and a romance on slow burn.

There was something Hackett always intended to tell Shepard - and now it's too late. Post ME3 vignettes.

Tali is torn between her feelings for the commander and the gravity of a horrible mistake, while Miranda comes to terms with the organization that she's championed for years. Follow-up to Levi Matthews' "Finding a Way". M!Shepard/Tali ON HIATUS

The Exaltation of the Unconquered Sun is a tricky thing. Especially when it doesn't come with an manual. Jane Shepard, who was able to talk Spectres into suicide before getting a spiritual superweapon grafted to her soul, has a new advantage.

What if we actually lived in the Mass Effect Universe? How would our lives translate into this rich universe? This collaborative self-insert shows how, even coming from all walks of life, some things can bind anyone together. How will this sundry group of unlikely heroes cope? DISCLAIMER: Nonoriginal characters and locations not owned by any authors; all Bioware/EA. Starts pre-Me1.

Harry Dresden has taken a lot of blows to the head over his career, and woken up in a lot of interesting places, but... aboard the Hogwarts Express in the body of an eleven-year-old boy with a lightning-bolt scar on his forehead? Yeah, that's a new one. Most people, they'd just enjoy the ride, but Dresden has read the books, and he REALLY doesn't like dark wizards...

Diagnosed as an Ardat-Yakshi at an early age, Falere had lived her entire life within the Monastery's walls. This is the story of her life, from the moment of diagnosis to post-ME3. (On hiatus.)

Years after the Reaper War is over, Liara goes to visit her father for what may be the last time, but Aethyta has one more piece of good advice to offer, and one last thing to lift from her conscience. Part of the Memoirs continuity.

It's a bad idea to go out on a sunny Palaven day without proper protection if you're a non-turian. Shepard discovers this first-hand and opens a can of worms she kept carefully sealed. Post-Destroy. (Complete.)

Mordin: Inconceivable! The Illusive Man: Who said life is fair? Where is that written? Shepard: Collectors of Unusual Size? I don't think they exist. Thane: Hello. My name is Thane Krios. You killed my father. PREPARE TO DIE! Legion: Marriage. Marriage is what brings us together in consensus today. Yes, the Princess Bride, done with Mass Effect characters! Read it now!

The most iconic scene from Mass Effect 1 told from a very different perspective.

Commander Shepard awakes amongst the ruins of the citadel, and is finally on the verge of that happily ever after he so desperately sought.

This is between ME1 and ME2, with heavy flashbacks to ME1. This story uses Calinstel's ideas of the Quarian culture. Both Garrus x FemShep and Tali x ManShep. It's designed to be very realistic and focus more on the relationships. Quite a few missions are there too. Info/Glossary page is Now a separate story. Sequel is Warrior Ethos: 2.

My version of the FemShep/Garrus romance throughout ME3. Follows the game's plot, but there are also alternatives. The final chapter is up! Includes EC stuff! (Complete.)

The Reapers have come, doom threatens the galaxy and it is time for Malleus Scandarum and his brothers to stand firm and face the oncoming storm. ME3 Specfic, sequel to Hammerhand, complete.

A small glimpse into the life of those outside of Commander Shepard's story; based on the interactions of two NPCs in Illium.

On a world torn apart by war, the Warp spews forth from another universe a horror that made Space Marines feel fear and caused even the minions of Chaos to feel revulsion. A horror that no weapon could purge. The horror's name: Jar Jar Binks.
