#wipwednesday! i'm shaking it up a bit and going with a different pov this time around. also getting into a little of frankenstein and her monster, though this one does not get abandoned; instead they're stuck in close quarters with one another as she observes her creation.
three fics in one week... that will not be happening again anytime soon
Outlive Your Legend I really wanted to make something that showed the contrast between the armored, invincible legend people see her as and the real woman beneath [ #masseffect #femshep #art #artsky #scifi ]

I got to draw a piece for Volchonika's fic during this year's Shakarian minibang! 💗 Please give it a read if you like ME2 retellings, it's so wonderfully written 🙏 #Shakarian #MassEffect

late #shakarian #wipwednesday! shepard's out cold and garrus is going through it, even though she's not even a foot away from him. what if they both let themselves relax and get too complacent and risk losing everything all over again?
#wipwednesday! with post-canon #shakarian. gotta deal with the big brass now, and frankly if shepard wanted her legal drama court room yelling moment i think she’d be entitled to it. she has a prosthetic to adjust to and often jokes that between her and garrus they have two functioning legs
#wipwednesday! #shakarian back to everyone having a Time. jumping around and making some edits to future bits and pieces. some nights are smoother than others and these two are all but too aware sometimes sharing personal space is more difficult than it sounds, especially during periods of rest.
2185, in a bar on Illium. (featuring liara, who was not expecting this scene LOL) [ #masseffect #shakarian #art #artsky #femshep #turian ]
#wipwednesday! #shakarian time for some deep thoughts while garrus takes a five minute shower and considers what the future looks like, after. he and shepard haven't really talked about that much, since he spends most of their time together focused on the fact she's alive.
#wipwednesday! time for some tali in the #shakarian fic. of course shepard's still in the hospital. recovery is a process. at least tali's keeping her company, even if she claims to have a bone to pick with her. she's just glad her friend is still around.
#wipwednesday! not saying garrus' mom is a card shark, but what's he's gonna do? try to enjoy every moment he has left with her, if he can. sometimes they hurt more than others, but at least during some she still recognizes him. he's not sure if he'd consider that a victory or not.
#wipwednesday! #shakarian / technically we're not IN the hospital because we went outside for the first time in months. shepard's trying to make sense of and enjoy the present. garrus is biting his tongue and wondering what their future looks like because this sense of quiet can't last forever.

art commissions are open! i have some very sad vet bills to cover 🖤 info here 👉 milkywayes.carrd.co [ #commsopen #commissions #commissionsopen #art #bskyart #artsky ]
OXYGEN. this got on the tumblr radar so I should probably post is separately here as well! [ #artsky #masseffect #commandershepard #femshep #fanart ]
#wipwednesday! garrus is still doing hospital visits (and will for a while) and shepard will get discharged eventually, but... he doesn't like hospitals (they aren't even fun to fight through), and isn't a fan of shepard coming to in fits and starts and not fully aware of who he is
doing embroidery and turning stickers into magnets… we’re getting crafty over here
funny that most of my last posts here are just wipwed bits and pieces. what do i have to offer? nothing, only this
#wipwednesday! some distressed shakarian. shepard is straight up having a bad time, but then technically garrus is too here. sometimes one of your greatest fears isn't actualized until it's happening right in front of you and there's nothing you can do.
