Fic rec: Orpheus Rising by ClockStrikesThree

https://archiveofourown.org/works/56098033

Summary:

When Kon died, his friends tried to bring him back. Cassie turned to a sham cult. Tim turned to science. They both failed. When Bart died, Tim and Cassie held each other back from the ledge. When Tim dies, Cassie does what she should have done the first time. She returns to her roots. She turns to the Greek gods. The Underworld. Or: Tim dies, and Cassie can’t handle it. She sets out to bring him back, Orpheus style.

Continuity: Post-Crisis Era: Modern Age (1985–now) Comic/Comic arc: Teen Titans (2003), pre-Final Crisis (2008) Main Characters: Cassie Sandsmark Main Relationships: Tim Drake & Cassie Sandsmark Comment: Canon Divergent AU. Incredible Cassie Sandsmark fic that is rich in comic references. Cassie's post-Infinite Crisis character is very interesting to me so I like how this fic is situated in that era. If you're a fan of her this is a must read fic!

The Legacy of Sacrifice by Lanfear (E / 239K)

John Shepard, Saviour of the Galaxy, has done the impossible, bringing together the disparate races and uniting them into a weapon against the greatest threat that they have ever faced. Now that the war is over, the survivors are left to pick up the remaining pieces, a task almost as onerous as the one they'd just left behind. Kaidan Alenko, John's lover and friend, is sifting through the rubble, trying desperately to search for the man who captured his heart. His reunion is short-lived however as new menaces arise, as they always do, and the galaxy is left stunned by revelations that may threaten to undo all that they have built since. 

But now, Shepard isn't in a position to lend his strength in aid of the countless billions that have desperately relied on him in the past. This time, another of Shepard's crew must take on his mantle and unite the people before the new and sinister threat before it finally claims the lives of this cycle. Kaidan Alenko, the grudgingly reluctant hero, must do as Shepard had done before, traversing the galaxy and recruiting an army in order to save the life of his love again.

Now with amazing fan art by Meena!
