Title: Down to Earth
Rating: NC-17
Pairings: F!Shepard/Kaidan Alenko
Spoilers (if any): Mass Effect 3, From Ashes DLC
Summary: What is Shepard to her crew? A chance for vengeance. A hero. A mentor. A leader. Redemption. Hope. Victory. A means to an end. But what is Kaidan to Shepard? Simply: someone who can tell her 'no'. Liberties have been taken with the From Ashes DLC.
A/N: This is the longest ME fic I've written to date; I've been sitting on this for a while, a little over a year, which just goes to show what a slow writer I am.
