That was lovely. I do get some amusement out of seeing the back-stories for ninjamanced characters, but the real joy came from the relationship between Shepard and Joker. The balance between argumentative banter and sweetness is nice, as is the ending point - however awkward it may be, they can work it out. All it takes is some creativity. ;) (And that's a good thing in bed, anyway...)

Ooh, I was hoping you'd write this. Needs moar snarky joker/kaiden conversation, though.

'"Operational parameters? Are you serious?"'EPIC

I LOVED it. You really know how to write, I got all sorts of excited. I love the story, great job. Joker ROCKS doesn't he?
