Summary
Major Kaidan Alenko has lost a lot over the past few years: his friends, his team, his ship, and more recently his home and most of his family. Now, he's finally back on the Normandy, but it doesn't feel the same. The ship is different, the faces are different, even Shepard is different. Maybe a certain procurement officer who knows what it's like to lose everything can help make it feel a little more like home.
a.k.a. Cortez doesn't get screwed over, and neither does Kaidan

Summary
They say you shouldn't ask questions you don't want to know the answers to. Well, Kaidan guesses he should have known better.

Pieces of Us by Snarkeologist
Fandom Mass Effect (Comics), Mass Effect - All Media Types, Mass Effect Trilogy
11 Aug 2026
Summary
A mostly canonical take on the relationship between my custom mShep (Paragade, Vanguard, Earthborn, War Hero), and Kaidan Alenko. Based on the premise that Kaidan was already in a long-term, established relationship during the events of Mass Effect. The series will delve into both of their pasts, events during ME2 and ME3, and their evolving relationship after the end of the Reaper invasion.

How to Write Fiction When the Planet is Falling Apart by lovetincture
Fandoms: No Fandom
12 Feb 2020

Summary
I think a lot about writing and its place in the world. I wonder if it matters, if it's enough. I wonder how we're all going to survive. The world is on fucking fire and even in fandom we can't pretend that it's not.
A guide to writing anyway in the age of despair or, a love letter to writers.

Summary
Participating in a teaching programme at Grissom Academy, Kaidan is going to be apart from Shepard for six whole months. And for the first three, it's already been absolutely horrible for Shepard, the loneliness that fills him uncomfortably unfamiliar.
That is, until Kaidan makes a surprise return halfway through. It's for work however, and they can just about keep it professional despite how much they miss each other. At least til lunch time, when Shepard can't keep his hands off his husband any longer.
Also, Kaidan has a grown a beard. Not even Shepard can resist that.
