Mmm thinking about how Indoctrination Theory would affect Kaidan
He's already worried that Shepard is affected/changed by the Cerberus rebuilding, but when he sees signs of her trying to solo an internal battle from Reaper control? Oh boy, my man would be struggling.
Loves her. Supports her. Will die for her. Has NO IDEA how he can lend her some ammo in this fight.
Being woken up in the middle of the night by her oily shadow nightmares, holding her close as he begs her to wake up. Her scars brighten for a moment, blue, when she growls "you exist because we allow it" before going limp, back to sleep. Scars glowing their normal red. She has the helm once again.
All as if Kaidan isn't quietly crying and wondering if the fight might already be over.
