while shepard and co deal with the basement, miranda, garrus, and tulinia head upstairs to... find some fucked-up corpses, mostly, but it’s okay, there’s survivors! [five minutes later] we regret to inform you the survivors are also fucked up.

In the Land of Giants: Chapter Updates

soooo i realize ive been forgetting to post new chapters here but didn't notice i have in fact not posted a link since chapter 21. im almost to ch30. sorry lads. i don't want to spam with 500 link posts so instead im going to compile them here in one post. plus a quick thing for the uninitiated (always be plugging etc etc)

In the Land of Giants: Mass Effect No-Reapers AU, rated T, currently in progress. Agender DMAB Shepard (Matteo, they/he). Part 3 of a series. Shepard and Nihlus head to Terminus to continue the hunt for Cerberus, but there's more trouble in store than it seems: Garrus has gone missing, the Hegemony is stirring, and an awful lot of old, forgotten monsters are crawling out of the dark. It's a race against time, and the timer's been rigged against them – so they'd better hope the new friends they find out there know what they're doing.

Ch22: Mom and Pops Store

Ch24: Almost Done With the Travel Chapters, Pinky Swear

Ch25: All Eyes On You
