Hoplite39 reviews
Just before activating the destroy option in the crucible, Shepard has just enought time to contact the Normandy. She only has time to speak with one person. He asks to speak to EDI. Inspired by the emotional scene in the movie Armageddon where the hero speaks to his daughter for the last time. This is a dialogue based one-shot.

Of Xenophobia and Infatuations by
Made Nightwing reviews
Kaidan Alenko is a weak-willed, pathetic excuse for an Alliance soldier. He is xenophbic, despises turians, and is sickened by the thought of a human loving one. Well, now Commander Shepard is going to fix that...or is she? (Side-note, it's scary when the parody I write is less ridiculous than the stories I parody)
