Thank you so much for this beautiful piece!

Post-Blitz One-Shot
Elysium, Petra Nebula, September 2nd, 2176
AO3
"Machines are talking to each other all of the time. Calculations, trajectories, comms, even every bit of information in the extranet is all compiled and understood from the ways machines talk to one another. That's what I do; I look at what the machines are saying, and I figure out the best ways of interpreting it so that we can understand it. I'm basically a robot interpreter!"
Athena Shepard swallows thickly around the knot of grief that has been wedged in her throat for the last two weeks since her husband's death. Hearing his voice again, particularly from one of his early messages to Kora, is like dragging a knife slowly through her chest but she won't show it; she can't afford to appear weak right now. Not with the Blitz still so raw and half the Batarian Hegemony outright calling for her head for the losses she had single-handedly been responsible for. Her brief this morning had made it clear that the publicity surrounding her frankly absurd hold of Elysium's perimeter was a double edged sword; for all that humanity as a whole was lauding her as the hero of the decade, she'd painted a target in blood on her back for the batarians.
A small sniff from her elbow brings her back to the present and she gently squeezes her daughter's hand, still so careful with the child. "Kora?"
Kora's free hand quickly comes up to wipe her face that is blotchy from trying to hold in the emotions that Athena was hard pressed to hold back for herself; the fact that she's managed so far is a testament to her inner strength, far beyond what any nine year old child should have.
"Sorry, momma," Kora whispers. "I'm t-trying not to, but I k-keep leaking."
The last comes out of her with such vehement frustration that Athena has to stifle a laugh, determined to not make her daughter think she doesn't take her seriously. Especially not today.
She lowers herself to one knee beside her daughter, ignoring the impersonal droning speech honoring her husband coming from the stage beside them as she takes both of her daughter's hands in her own. Her small hands are still swollen, dry and cracked from her chemo treatments, but Athena takes comfort that the treatments are over with and Kora won't have to deal with her painful hands for much longer. "Kora, no one is going to be upset with you for crying, especially not today."
Her daughter's brown eyes feel like they're boring into her soul as she shuffles a bit. "But this is supposed to be serious."
"Who said serious can't be sad?" Athena says sharply, too sharply; Kora winces, and Athena has to force herself to take a slow, deep breath before continuing. "Kora, aroha, this is a funeral. It is normal to be sad. You're saying goodbye to your dad; crying is part of saying goodbye."
"You always tell me not to cry when you say goodbye, though."
"Right, because I'll see you again." The knot in her throat seems to grow three sizes. "We're not going to see your dad again, so this time it's okay to cry."
Kora still doesn't seem sure, but they're interrupted by one of the Admiral's aids. "Excuse me, Lt. Shepard? They're about to call you up." The staffer at least has the decency to appear distinctly apologetic for interrupting the moment.
"All right." Rising back to her feet, Athena takes one more look at her daughter, taking in the red eyes (she's started 'leaking' again, as she put it) and trembling grip and sighs again. "Do you want to go up with me, or would you rather stay here with this nice young man?" 
The girl's eyes go wide. "But I haven't said goodbye yet!" 
"That's okay!" Athena assures her. "This isn't the goodbye part. They're just going to give us your dad's medals. The goodbye part comes after."
"His medals?" To Athena's surprise, Kora takes a moment to wipe her face with her coat sleeves and visibly braces herself, the exact same way she'd seen Mikhail brace himself a thousand times before doing something unpleasant, and firmly takes her mother's hand once more. "Okay. I'll go with you."
Athena nods and leads the way as the aid gestures them onto the stage. Kora's small hand squeezes tight as they walk under the lights, and though Athena focuses her eyes on Admiral Evans, her attention remains on her daughter's trembling grip. 
The medals are given to her and Kora both, a Purple Heart and a Palladium Star, one for each of them to take. Kora holds the star so carefully in both hands, Athena's hand resting on her shoulder as Mikhail's honors are finished. Before she can usher her daughter away, however, another aide approaches them with yet another small box, this one for Athena herself. By the time she is able to guide Kora back offstage she has risen in rank and received the highest honor of the Systems Alliance, the Star of Terra.
Mikhail Olegovitch Petrovsky is laid to rest an hour later, the burial attended by his wife and daughter and their close family and friends. All of Elysium is eager to honor the those dead from the Blitz, but for now the graveyard belongs to them and the families of the others who are being buried today. All in all Athena spies some three hundred people scattered throughout the area, most of them family of the civilians that had died in the attack; Alliance soldiers lost in the attack, though honored today, were mostly from off-world and would be escorted home from the memorial with full honors. Mikhail was one of only four soldiers who were being buried here in Illyria, right beside his grandmother.
Athena tries (and fails) to ignore the empty space next to him for her as she holds her daughter in her arms, rubbing her back in what she hopes is a soothing way as she sobs.
.
.
.
Hera Shepard regards her sister carefully, searching for any sign of injury or foul mood before sighing heavily and pulling the datapad across the table, reading through it quickly and pushing it back. "Everything is in order. I don't know what you're expecting from me, Athena. It's perfectly clear that this is the right choice for her."
Athena flushes, elbows on her knees and hands fidgeting between them. "What if she needs me?"
"That's what email is for." Hera sighs. She loved her sister, truly, but sometimes she is just too much of an overthinker. "Has there ever been a situation where you were the only person capable of giving her what she needs?"
". . . No."
"What makes this situation any different?" Her sister's eyes grow distant, her face pinching slightly. Damn. A step in the wrong direction; Hera knows what she is about to say and mentally kicks herself for her blunder. 
"Mikhail was always with her." Athena's gaze sank to her toes, her hands going still but for a slight tremble. Hera might not even have noticed it if she hadn't known to be looking for it. 
Hera stands and rounds the table to drop into the free cushion beside Athena, gently reaching out to clasp her hands. Athena is a soldier to her bones, just like their mother, and had gone through hell and high water for the Alliance before she'd even turned twenty. A tactician, a leader, the shining example of what a human biotic is capable of, it is so easy to forget that she is still only twenty-six years old and constantly weighing the demands of the Alliance against the needs of her own daughter. "Athena. Sending Kora to Grissom doesn't mean you're abandoning her," she assures her. "She's a brilliant child; Grissom is the best place for her to learn, somewhere where she can grow at her own pace and where she'll be supported by other students and teachers who can understand her. Did you resent ma for how much she was gone?"
Athena shakes her head. "That was different," she protests, but her heart isn't in it. "We had mom around."
One of Hera's eyebrows shoot up, the old familiar anger bristling down her spine. "Did we? Between the drinking and her job, how often was she really around?" 
She forces herself to stop and shakes her head, pushing the frustration back down. "This isn't what we're talking about now. Kora will have plenty of teachers and classmates to meet her social needs. Her medical team is right here on Elysium in case something happens, and I have it on good authority that Kahlee Sanders has high enough comm priority to get word to you, our mothers, or Anderson immediately in the event that something happens."
"She does?" Athena meets her sister's gaze with relief and hesitates a brief moment before plopping her head on Hera's shoulder, just like she used to when she was a kid. "I feel like I'm abandoning her."
Hera wraps an arm around her shoulders and presses a soft kiss into her sister's hair even as she hides the way her eyes roll at Athena's dramatics. Anyone who has just buried their spouse deserves to be dramatic, even if it's, well . . . dramatic. "You're not. I promise. We're all here for the both of you, just like we always have been. If it helps at all, Dion is going to be enrolling at Grissom in the next few weeks as well."
"He is? Why?"
"To join the new Ascension Project; little bastard's a biotic. Kept it secret for weeks apparently, ma only found out when he sneezed his dinner across the apartment."
Athena snorts a laugh before sighing heavily. "That does make me feel better, actually. He's always kept a good eye on her."
"A good eye? That boy is almost as protective of her as you are," Hera accuses, but the fond smile softened her words. "He'll watch out for her. If anything happens and you absolutely can't take care of it, then either myself, David, or our moms will take care of it." She hesitates, for a moment uncertain if what she wants to say will be an assurance to Athena or a source of anxiety. "Iana is also willing to step in, if you're okay with that."
"Of course!" Athena doesn't even question it, to Hera's immense relief. Their family is usually great about her wife, but so many people aren't that it is often hard to put aside the wariness of how other humans react to their marriage. "Kora adores her and Lanaya; I'll make sure Kahlee knows they're both on the family list." 
She rubs her face wearily. "I hate to say it, but at least she's done with chemo. I can't even imagine having to deal with this and her appointments."
Hera stiffens for a moment and then relaxes, giving Athena's shoulder another squeeze as her thoughts jump to Artemis and the last time a little girl in their family had gone through leukemia treatment and never made it to the bell. Thank the Goddess that they still have Kora, that Athena still has Kora.
From across the apartment comes a series of thuds followed by a string of expletives from Dion and the sound of shattering pottery. The sisters exchange a knowing look as Hera stands, giving Athena's shoulder one last squeeze before heading for the door. "I'll go make sure they didn't break anything important. You okay here for a bit? I can run interference if you need me to."
Athena shakes her head. "I'm okay. Hera?" 
She pauses at the door, her expression as she glances back over her shoulder filled with compassion. "Thanks. You . . . This helped."
Hera flashes her a sad smile. "Anything you need, Athena," she says as she leaves the room wishing that there was more she could do to help her sister find her own smile again.

Gemini Paradox - a Mass Effect WIP :)
Don’t mind me, just shamelessly plugging my Mass Effect fanfic that’s my take on the James Vega romance we all deserved but never got 😭👹 if the summary below tickles your fancy, then please hop on over to Ao3 to read on here!
Athena Shepard died the day they buried an empty casket in her brother's name. Fleeing to old habits and the depths of Omega to escape her grief, Thena lived the next two years in a numb haze, joining the asari dancers at Afterlife, under the watchful eye of Aria T'Loak.
Then, a grinning Alliance marine saunters into the club, calls her "Lola", and spends every day sitting at the front of whatever stage she's dancing on to flirt shamelessly with zero follow-through. His appearance comes three weeks before the ghost of her twin brother walks into Afterlife, shattering the glass cocoon containing what's left of her heart when she realizes that ghost isn't a ghost, but her brother—alive and well.
---
A re-imagining of the Mass Effect trilogy centered around Ares and Athena Shepard, the famous (and infamous) twins raised by Anderson and Hackett after the death of their parents, in which, Nihlus lives, Vega gets fast-tracked into ME2 by way of a fake relationship, and the fate of the universe rests in the hands of a brother and sister who will always choose each other above anyone else.

The concept here is to send in a question or a letter request, and you’ll get a response from your fictional character of choice, from the list below. Please stick to the list I’ve made, but of course, you can ask if there’s some other characters I write for, I don’t always remember all the shows, movies or books I’ve consumed over the years and I’m sure I’m missing a lot 😅

Not-not tagged by various mutuals for this so I tried my own hand! Most of my OCs appear fully formed like Athena bursting from Zeus' head so instead I tried to dissect the subconscious inspirations that Mino could have been born from.
Aragorn: Look LOTR is the most formative piece of media in my entire life. You see a Rohirrim cavalry charge when you're like 8 and it imprints on you forever and ever, okay? Anyway, Aragorn as the natural born destined leader that spends the majority of his life denying and running from it, but has such a strong sense of duty and morality that he cannot in good conscience abandon those that need him? He steps up anyway despite how much he does not want it nor thinks he deserve it because he just can't let his companions/his love/the world fall? Mino is very Aragorn coded, lol. The destined Leader/Deity|King that embodies everything they avoid being and Do Not Want, and accepts in the end that heavy crown with duty and grace.
Jheraal: From Liane Merciel's, Hellknight! Mino already existed when I started reading this novel but a lot of Jheraal's characterization and Hellknights in general refined Mino more and more. Mino was an HK investigator only because this novel showed me that was a thing they could be, and same for the concept of Hellknight Foundlings! A lot of Jheraal's struggles being accepted and respected as a tiefling also play into Mino's own struggles as a ganzi.
Satine Kryze (-> Bo-Katan Kryze): Mino is both the Kryzes in a sense, starting off as idealist Satine that firmly and so stubbornly believes in doing things in the way she deems is right, no matter how much people fight and push against that and how difficult it is. She's clever and exceptionally diplomatic, ready to risk her own life and body to do what she thinks is right and bound by her duty to the people. Then, of course, Satine... I see a lot of what happened to Satine as Mino's own fate at the hands of House Thrune, but rather than death she instead takes on a lot more aspects of Bo-Katan.
Brigitte: Brigitte is way too cute and cool a character to be left in the cesspit that is Overwatch. Much of Brigitte's visual design has inspired Mino's, and so has the bright and peppy jock personality.
Shepard: Jaded military veteran leading a crew of people she cares so intensely about, becoming a special type of operative both bound by and outside of the law, having to deal with the mire of bureaucracy and resorting to a gun (hammer) when things must be done? Willing to do WHATEVER IT TAKES to get the mission done and save everyone? Lots of Shep in Mino.
Koby: I'm surprised I only found one anime inspiration! But Koby is my baby boy and as a long term One Piece fan, his story of wanting to be a Marine (which from the onset in OP the audience is pointed to see as 'the antagonists') and actually do real good and be a champion for justice in the people even in spite of seeing nothing but corruption from them thus far speaks a lot of how I view fantasy law enforcement and characters like that. Mino wanting to be a Hellknight and seeing it as her calling mirrors a lot of Koby's own ideals with the Marines, and both spend their years in each respective organizing emerging powerful, confident, successful in their dreams, and with a huge glow-up (lol).

Quantum Entanglements
When Athena Shepard wakes from the dead on Lazarus Station, she walks straight into a firefight and realizes she's missed two years of her daughter's life, years that her daughter had to live after the loss of her mother. Now she's being asked to save the galaxy (again) while under the thumb of a terrorist organization, her daughter is sick, and everyone she ever relied on for support is either pissed at her or gone. Can anything in this galaxy stay fixed?!
Chapter One
Athena Shepard couldn't stop staring at her hands, inspecting them with an intensity that hands didn't generally deserve. They looked . . . normal, for the most part. Five fingers. All the proper joints, all the right appendages in the right places. Everything worked fine; she could pull a trigger just as easily as she always could, but that wasn't the problem that kept her inspecting her hands endlessly as the shuttle approached yet another station she didn't recognize.
It was the grip. The way she held a gun. The way it rested against her palm and enclosed between her fingers felt . . . off, wrong in a way she couldn't explain. What had they done to her? How much of her had needed to be rebuilt if even her hands felt foreign?
Was she even still the same person?
The Illusive Man seemed to think so, as he echoed Lawson and Taylor's assurances. Their words meant little to her. If she could bide her time until they were somewhere with more resources, she could disappear and make her way back to the Alliance. Surely they'd be able to tell one way or another. Missing colonies was a obviously a priority, but it was something she could handle with a Spectre badge and an Alliance ship, not a terrorist organization. How could they think she'd just go along with them after everything she'd seen them do?
Her thoughts were millions of miles away from her body as she half listened to the Illusive Man, plans and backup plans and escape options bouncing around vaguely while she flexed her fingers. She was trapped in enemy territory regardless of whether or not she was in a cage, and she was going to get out. Just watch the Illusive Man and his gang of xenophobic worshippers try to stop her.
