    Summary

    Reconciling is hard.

     

    Things never went according to plan, not really. Not with Shepard. Eden Prime. Noveria. Virmire. Alchera. Shepard was like a ship that skipped off the atmosphere every time he set a course for re-entry. With Shepard there was no script. No rehearsal. You just had to go with your gut.

    Summary

    There was no Alliance manual for trying to drag two trillion people fighting and screaming through absolute certain death, and there was nothing about what to do when you unexpectedly got spat out on the other side, either. And there was *definitely* nothing about what to do if your hot, older-than-you, currently missing-in-action boyfriend knocked you up at some stage in that sequence of events.

    Summary

    “My man.” Baelor’s mouth curved. His thumb traced the line of Dunk’s lower lip, and Dunk’s breath went to pieces under it. “There’s my man.” A beat. Then, lower, with the faintest gleam, testing the weight of the words: “My dog.”

    And Dunk — who had carried that word like a coin in his fist since the day Maekar threw it — shut his eyes and made a low broken sound, and the whole of him went warm and loose and willing.

    Summary

    After the Battle of the Citadel, the Alliance calls the Normandy home to Vancouver to face an inquest. Things get...complicated. On every possible level. Especially when Kaidan discovers an unfortunate misunderstanding with his parents.

    ~

    “Have to admit though,” Shepard says, swallowing the rest of his shot, “I’ve been called a lot worse things than your boyfriend.”

    Kaidan blinks. The whiskey’s definitely caught up to him. It’s warm in here, and he has to have imagined what just came out of Shepard’s mouth. “Really.”

    “Compared to getting shot at and having an inquest shoved up my ass? I’m pretty sure holding your hand, going home with you and eating your mom’s risotto is a considerable improvement, yes.”

    Kaidan laughs. Or tries to. It comes out as more of a hoarse squawk. “Sure, I’ll just avoid this whole mess by bringing you home with me. They’ll never have to know.”

    “Maybe they don’t,” Shepard says, and Kaidan nearly chokes.

    Summary

    "The Major has become very capable."
    "Agreed."

    (Or, alternatively, the one where Shepard is hot for Kaidan's competence and fine-tuned control)
