Fic Update: Another Life

It was funny—all the things that didn’t matter anymore. The silly, flimsy opinions of people that used to carry weight for her felt so impossibly petty in hindsight. Things that had seemed life-or-death before she knew what life-or-death really meant.

“You alright?” His voice was low and gravelly. Knowing him, he probably hadn’t slept well surrounded by unfamiliar people in an unfamiliar place.

Corinne nodded. “Mmhm.”

Ok so it has been just about a calendar year but I SAID I wouldn't abandon this and I DIDN'T lol :D

Cori are back and moving forward inch by inch here.

“Do you think they’re happy here? The settlers?” She ran her fingers absently over the arm of the chair as she said it.

Fuck no. No, not even a little bit. He remembered damn well what it was like to eke out a living off the barren land and sure, he’d grown up quite a ways from the Commonwealth, but shit was the same wherever you went. Folks worked their fingers to the bone to starve slowly while they watched other, stronger assholes take half of what little shit they had and live a helluva lot better. He ain’t a fuckin’ paragon of goodness like some backwoods farmer who made an honest living struggling until he died, but at least he wasn’t a miserable sheep waiting for the axe to fall on the back of his neck.

She probably wasn’t really asking, though.

“Dunno,” he grumbled.

Corinne and Gage rest up, eat hot food, , regroup, and still don't feel super great about any of it. Linked here! :D

My favorite ship dynamic is "they're both extremely stupid in completely different ways and extremely smart in completely different ways, but rarely is any of that useful because they just get extra double stupid when together"

Fic Update: Another Life

The tram finally slid to a full stop after a painfully long time creeping along in the dark. The station wasn’t lit like it had been when she’d fired the terminal up months ago, but the light from outside slunk down the stairs and filled the space with hazy grey. Maybe it was the deja-vu or maybe it was the creeping dizziness in the back of her brain, but nothing felt quite real and she couldn’t tell if that was bitterly funny or deeply frightening.

“Ready?” Gage’s voice was low and even—no hint of emotion.

She’d never been ready for a damn thing her whole life. But if that hadn’t stopped her to this point, it might as well not stop her now.

Guess who's in the Commonwealth :D We're back after a...uhhh...extended break lol! Updated here

I’m reading bad sex awards finalists across the years

all video games should have a “I’m shit at video games but I’m curious about the story and I don’t want to watch a let’s play” mode

mass effect 1 is about elevators and accidentally flirting with your coworkers

mass effect 2 is about proper aquarium upkeep and the power of friendship

mass effect 3 is an anxiety disorder simulator that briefly segues into being a b-list heist movie

Nick agreed to watch Nat and Shaun for the day.

Did someone order a cinnamon roll?

I apologize for not knowing how to draw hats for the life of me.

(edit: fixed his floating eye…)

He kept looking over at her like he expected to see something else. Something different. For all he’d learned, she ought to look different, in some way, but she was just the same as she’d been since he’d met her and something about that made it all the more real. A whole other person—a stranger he’d thought he knew, hiding in the skin of the woman he’d spent the last few months arguing with. Among other things.

But he looked over and she was still just Corinne. Same face. Same shape. Same person. Spun his head around in circles.

Ayyyyy we're back! And Gage has A LOT to think about! :) Updated here!

Just wanted to put a plug in for one of my new fav websites, Can I Play That?, which focuses on accessbility reviews of video games by disabled gamers. As someone with a dexterity/mobility disability in my hands (carpal tunnel) I NEED games that allow easy and convenient ways to push buttons to do stuff and let me rebind keys at will. I’m now checking Can I Play That? before buying games since their reviews are ++. They include accessibility reviews for deaf/hard of hearing and cognitive disabiliies too.

Shepard: Truth

Tali: How many hours of sleep have you gotten this week?

Shepard: Dare

Garrus: I dare you to sleep

Shepard: I don't like this game

me when i hear someone didn’t get the chance/didn’t recruit javik and thus missed some crucial content to the plot that wasn’t in the main game
