    Summary

    Garrus finds himself in Shepard's quarters the night before they're due to pass through the Omega-4 relay. He'd planned to be there long before that moment, but life doesn't always adhere to planning. In reality, he has no clue what he's getting himself into. Mordin's pamphlet wasn't as informative as it could have been. He's pretty sure Shepard might be in the same position.

    Summary

    "You don't truly wish to harm me, do you?" he asked. "This isn't the thirst for blood that brings you here, blade in hand. No, there's something else, isn't there? A deeper desire, perhaps a craving for something more."
    Raphael placed the dagger on a nearby table, and you watched the blade lying there, unable to get your body to move.
    "Why the drama? Why the theatrics? We both know that's not your style, not really. It's not violence you seek from me, but something else. Or maybe it's companionship that you are after, the kind that differs from such the ones around you can provide. Something that comes from deeper, something that burns so hot but what you simply cannot resist."

    ---

    The reader is The Dark Urge but gets something other than blood and murder to think to very fast, so no guts this time, sorry.

    Summary

    It was by chance that you first met Joel Miller.

    It really shouldn’t have been odd- considering he’s your neighbor, you’d think it would be completely plausible to run into each other early on and have a chat. That’s good southern manners, after all.

    As it turns out, he’s actually pretty elusive. The first time you met him, it was two weeks after you'd moved in. He’d been shuffling down his front porch steps, clearly in a hurry, what looked like a children’s backpack slung over his shoulder. You’d watched him from your porch, head tilted sideways with intrigue at the surprisingly handsome neighbor who hadn’t yet shown his face.

    “Sarah!” He’d called gruffly into the house behind him. “Get a move on!”

    And from the navy blue painted wood, a little girl bounded outside. Wiry curls, eager brown eyes, a bright, beaming smile.

    You felt your heart soften slightly at the sight of her, and understood why your reclusive neighbor maybe hadn’t quite had the time to come and introduce himself.

    A little girl, a daughter, and a ring finger void of any jewelry.

    A single dad.

     

    (reader and Joel are neighbors- she falls pregnant by someone else- they fall in love)
