I'm writing a new fic! Fair Warning this fic starts off cute but it gets fucked up so if you don't want that, I don't recommend reading it. This is taking the canon romance we have, and well, if you really paid attention to his words (and read his backstory), make it more in line with the ever attractive assassin we know and love, at least with how I see his characterization. Do not interact if you are underage.
Title: He Wouldn't Hurt Her (Much)
Rating: E
Status: In Progress
Ships: Shrios
Warnings: Chose Not To Warn
Fandom: Mass Effect
Series: Not Applicable currently
Characters: Female Shepard, Thane Krios, Miranda Lawson, Kasumi Goto, Garrus Vakarian, The Normandy Crew
Content Warnings: Violence, Language, Threats of Violence, Obsession, Possessiveness, Generally Yandere Shit, Non-con Elements, Manipulation, Stalking, generally a very dark romance story.
Summary:
“I'm not sure if I find him scary or sexy.”
“A lot of women like bad boys.”
“A lot of women... like you?”
A human commander brought back from the dead. A drell assassin who considers himself dead. When the two cross paths, things change between them, feelings get complicated and become powerful. Tensions start to rise and half truths are told. No tactic he knows is off the table for her heart.
A plan set, a target to capture, a lover to claim. That is his goal before the end of this mission. And he will do anything to succeed.
