Fan Fiction on Universe Mass Effect. Ridiculous. A couple of minutes ago, I did what the Reapers and Collectors couldn't. I killed John Shepard! Yes, and I did not need huge fleets and millions of armies. My consciousness just dissolved his personality! I'm sorry, captain, by choice I would never have done that. A couple of ugly creatures with green hair decided everything for you and me. But Shepard left for a reason. As befits a real officer, he died fighting to the last.
