Again, and again, and again."

Summary
Patroclus is not the Chosen One; he is not even sure he belongs in this world half the time. He knows the Chosen One and he's a boy just like himself—except he’s golden and perfect, he’s the star Quidditch player and he's the most powerful and gifted wizard in history. He’s destined to save all of magic someday. Patroclus kind of wants to hate him but Achilles makes it impossible.
The Harry Potter and Song of Achilles mashup you never knew you wanted (hopefully).

Summary
In 2021, Earth was ravaged by an unknown genetic anomaly that targeted humanity. While it wasn't terminal, it did have one devastating consequence; it left humanity as a whole, sterile. With millions of people dying every year and their numbers dwindling, humanity became desperate for a cure of any kind. After years of research and experimental, genetic alterations, humanity regained the ability to reproduce, though at the cost of their previous definitions of gender. So was created, the Omegaverse.
Now, almost a hundred and sixty years past that point, the world is still trying to parse out their new designations and roles. So much of what was done in desperation is still being discovered and controlled, quantified and labelled. With almost two-thirds of Earth's population gone since then, and with an entirely new form of gender type, how will the Alphas, Betas and Omegas carve their places in society? And what will this mean for two men in particular who are still struggling with their pre-determined fates, Kaidan and Shepard?
Now with art! By... ME!

Summary
A continuation of the Mass Effect story focused on the mShepard/Kaidan romance and based on the Synthesis ending, interpreted such that Synthesis gave the galaxy's organics a form of cybernetic empathy-- with each other, and eventually with synthetics.
"A Longer Haul" follows the development of Kaidan & (spacer vanguard) Hadrian Shepard's relationship in ME3's 'unseen' moments, up to the final battle for Earth, and Kaidan's despair at the loss of Shepard, and the lengths he and the crew of the Normandy will go to for the rumoured hope of resurrecting the galaxy's hero.
"Disconnected" tells the story of the Puritan incursion. As the galaxy rebuilds and adapts to 'synthempathy,' aliens from beyond the Milky Way who object to Synthesis and its "subversion of nature" invade to un-do the effects of the Crucible Day Event, and the crews of the Normandy and SSV Vimy Ridge search for a way to repel a technologically superior race fighting a remote-control war.
And in the works now is the final installment, "Integration." With the first post-Reaper Invasion elections about to set the agenda for the new galaxy, all the chickens come home to roost.

Summary
ALH is presented in 3 major parts. In the first, which overlaps with ME3 (from just after the Cerberus coup thru to the ending), I flesh out the development of mShepard and Kaidan's long-overdue romance during their time aboard Normandy, and speculate on how to reconcile some of the ending's seeming plot holes (which, if I may say so, turned out to be pretty prescient vis-a-vis the Extended Cut).
In the second part, I lay out a vision of the game's aftermath- what Synthesis did to people, and Kaidan's struggle with the loss of Shepard while needing to step up and lead the marooned Normandy crew in surviving. Time passes, people start adapting. Help eventually arrives, and I send Kaidan and the crew on a new mission that offers Alenko a glimmer of hope for a happy ending. But as it was for Shepard when he was the protagonist, what Kaidan wants requires making choices, and living with consequences.
And the third part concludes the story.
I published this work on fanfiction.net in May of 2012 to some very kind reviews, and having just completed a sequel I wanted to extend "ALH" to a wider audience, to pave the way for my 'opus,' "Disconnected."
