Summary
‘I… don’t think I want to go back to the Normandy.’
‘Alright,’ Steve said slowly. ‘No one’s going to make you do that. If anyone deserves a break, it’s you.’
‘What if it’s not a break, though? What if I just… stopped?’ Isaac watched Steve’s face carefully, expecting him to be angry or disappointed. Retiring felt too much like giving up, but when Isaac thought about going back to the Normandy, going back to being Commander Shepard… he didn’t want that. He couldn’t do it. They wanted to just be Isaac, nothing more.

Summary
In the aftermath of the Reaper War, the Normandy and her crew find themselves stranded on an uncharted world, uncertain about the fate of the rest of the galaxy they've left behind… including Shepard. For Liara T'Soni, leaving Petra Shepard behind means being burdened with a grief she thought she'd never have to endure again, when the future is so full of unknowns and the only comfort she can find, for now, is in the memories of her bondmate.

Summary
Shepard chose to destroy the Reapers.
My take on what happened after ME3, lots of angst, Shepard is very broken, but it'll eventually have a happy end.
Follow on piece to 'And the Sky Full of Stars', but can be read as a standalone.

Summary
Three days after the sudden collapse of the Reapers and the end of the war, there's only destruction, chaos and pain left in the galaxy. Rebuilding will take years, decades, for now all they can do is heal the wounded, and bury the dead.
Jane Shepard though, has no intention of being counted among those dead.
Written by IllusiveWritings and illustrated by Shipsnthenight
Post-destroy ending, with a twist of indoctrination theory just for fun. I started writing in 2013 and exhumed it because shipsnthenight offered to illustrate it. We have to kill time during the quarantine after all, right?

Time to rest? No!
Time to rebuild and reshape the galaxy!“Alright,” Shepard proposed, "I know I can’t really move yet. I know the war just ended and we’re all tired. But… we, all of us, with the state of everything and who we are—Each one of us are leaders of our species and played a key part in the galaxy’s survival.
