Dear Fellow Creator (Spectre Requisitions 2023)
Hello there. Thank you for checking out this letter. I’m afraid it won’t be too detailed unlike other ones since I’m pretty laidback when it comes to these things. I’m really going to be happy with any gifts. So....here we go! Haha. Everything is below the cut. I put the actual prompts at the bottom and all treats of any kind are welcomed! If you have a question my inbox has anon on and I will tag every responded ask with the Spectre Requisitions 2023 tag.
Likes:
I love angst! It’s my favorite thing. The catharsis that comes out in angst is so good.
Friends to lovers is so good
Characters protecting their loved ones is one of my favorite tropes.
While I want the main focus of these stories to be on the relationships, I really enjoy it when people add in the main character(s) friends and families. After all the characters aren’t without connections outside of romantic.( Vetra and Sidera’s sibling dynamic is so fun. Sara and Scott’s feel as if it could be so complicated too. Grunt is Shepard’s kid! So if you want to throw such things in there, then go ahead.)
Dislikes:
I’m not the biggest fan of enemies/rivals to lovers (when violence is involved. If they were rivals/enemies on a mission and one of them beat the other to the goal, but it never got physical then that’s fine.) Some people do enemies/rivals to lovers well. So it’s not a complete no for me.
No non-con anything please.
Ratings:
I’m good with any ratings. The reason why I didn’t click Explicit is because I’m uninterested in smut. If you want to include graphical depictions of violence that’s fine.
Character Appearances:
For F!Shepard I always just play with default F!Shepard. If you want to use your version of Shepard for one of the prompts then go ahead.
For the Ryders these are the faces I used for them in my canon run:
The scars they got from an incident when they were kids, where Sara tried to protect Scott’s face, but they both still got burned. As for the tattoos, when they grew up they both got a tattoo where their twin had been injured in their twin’s favorite color. Now they serve as a sign of how close they are. With Sara looking more like their father and Scott looking like their mom. If you want to go with the default appearances for them, that’s fine too. (Yeah I just use all the default names for all three characters too.) Usually I play Sara as the more logical, gets excited about discovering new things, and new tech. She saw their father brush people off so she tries to be patient with others while Scott is more about the adventure itself and upfront about his emotions/opinions.
The list of Prompts
#1 Ship - Jaal Ama Darav/Vetra Nyx/Female Ryder | Sara and/or David Anderson/Nihlus Kryik
Prompt: I would love anything that includes Ryder and Vetra hanging out with Jaal and his family. Maybe they are sitting at a meal with everyone, awkwardly or no. Or perhaps they're learning more about angaran culture. It could even include Scott and Sidera tagging along. Really anything is fine.
---------------
I love the idea that Nihlus disagreed with the unfairness Saren treated Anderson's chance of becoming a spectre with. Maybe he was on the mission two and treated Anderson with kindness, and understood how determined he was. Or perhaps after becoming a spectre in his own right, Nihlus reaches out to Anderson. He could have just wanted to meet the human who almost changed history, or to work with him and give humanity another chance.
Or the two of them could just be sitting in a bar having a drink (young or as themselves after death.)
#2 Ship - Evfra de Tershaav/Tiran Kandros or Bain Massani/Female Ryder|Sara/Reyes Vidal
Prompt: Evfra and Tiran both have difficult jobs. I feel like that is something they would bond over. However I think the amount of reluctance Tiran has involving everything about his job would annoy Evfra. I would love something about the two of them arguing about that, before eventually making up. (Or not if you'd prefer an angsty break up end.)
-------
I would also be down for something that shows Ryder being considered as an upstanding person due to her being the pathfinder that has done so many wonderful things. Then cue Reyes and Bain hanging around her intimidating others.
This could be an art prompt where the two of them stand behind her, scaring people as she smiles at them.
If you do writing I would love to see a story where people question why she hangs out with those two, and from Ryder's point of view they are very loving and have good sides to them that others don't see because they don't look for the good.
#3 Ship - Cora Harper/Liam Kosta or Cora Harper/Liam Kosta/Female Ryder | Sara
Prompt: Anything that involves Liam and Cora hanging out when everyone else is preoccupied.
Examples (You don't have to do these exact scenarios): Liam getting Cora to laugh as Ryder is stuck dealing with the politics of the station, or the two of them sharing ammo/a snack in the middle of a firefight.
--------
Life keeps the pathfinder team busy, but Cora, Ryder, and Liam still manage to find moment to spend as just them.
#4 Ship - Female Shepard/Urdnot Wrex/Garrus Vakarian or Kirrahe & Thane Krios
Prompt: These three doing what they do best, fighting. Maybe it's a playful match between the three of them, or a team match between the three of them against another team. Perhaps krogans have regular wrestling matches that Wrex takes the two of them to, and they inevitably join in.
-----
Kirrahe has been searching for Shepard. He finds Thane instead.
#5 Ship - Tiran Kandros/Avitus Rix or Kaetus/Avitus Rix
Prompt: Anything showing these two getting to know each other over time, and confiding in each other before ending up together would be great. I love how they both didn't want the jobs they end up having, because there were people they knew who were supposed to be there instead.
----
Kaetus is a skilled individual. It would be a tragedy to waste his skills, Ryder insisted. Eventually convincing Reyes. However Kaetus can't be entirely trusted after Sloane's death so they hand him over to Avitus.
Maybe they bond over both having lost loved ones recently, or something.
#6 Ship - Tiran Kandros/Vetra Nyx/Female Ryder | Sara or Alec Ryder/Ellen Ryder
Prompt: I like the idea of the three of them having a date night to get away from work. It's interrupted as they each keep getting calls, emails, and messages about work stuff (and friends and family interrupting too if ya want to throw that in there). Maybe they have to keep each other off their tech so they can enjoy the night off.
----
Ellen tries to talk to Alec about how distant he is with their children. It turns into an argument, and Ellen fears that the twins will never know their father.
#7 Ship - Tiran Kandros/Female Ryder | Sara or Kaetus/Sloane Kelly
Prompt: Tiran and Ryder hiding out from work together, or the two of them making fun of their co-workers as they vent about the latest problem, fight, or ridiculous request.
OR
Scott has grown close to Tiran since he could start working again. He's been inviting him more often to the ship, under the guise of wanting to hang out. However he knows that Sara has a crush on Tiran, so he makes sure they talk at least once everytime TIran comes aboard.
---- Kaetus mourning Solane would be awesome. I want the angstiest of angst.
#8 Ship - Nyreen Kandros/Vetra Nyx or Kolyat Krios & Thane Krios
Prompt: Vetra can get her hands on anything she wants. Nyreen heard of the skilled turian living outside of turian culture, and hires her. Mostly out of curiosity, and in the hopes that her skills turn out to be true. She never expected to find a kindred spirit. How will it turn out?
OR
Nyreen and Vetra on a job together.
----
Kolyat and Thane's trip to Earth while Shepard is imprisoned elsewhere.
#9 Ship - Vetra Nyx/Female Ryder | Sara or Zevin Raeka/Female Ruder | Sara
Prompt: Being the eldest sibling is tough, but it's a little bit easier with someone who understands.
OR
Vetra and Sara end up trapped on a new planet together. The two try to survive as they await a rescue. (Bonus points if Vetra is stressed because she doesn't know this planet or how to get anything they'll need to survive.)
----
Ryder and Raeka had met only a handful of times before everyone left for Andromeda. Now it's to her face that Raeka wakes up, and it's her who saves Raeka before running back for the krogan scouts, alone, accepting death but not failure.
#10 Ship - Jaal Ama Darav/Liam Kosta/Female Ryder | Sara or Jaal Ama Darav/Evfra de Tershaav/Male Ryder | Scott
Prompt: The three of them cuddling on Liam's couch would be cute.
OR
Jaal has recently become very interested in the Andromeda Initiative's talks regarding children. Liam and Sara are taken by surprise.
----
When grabbed by the kett, Scott, Jaal, and Evfra must find a way out of their bindings and away from their enemy's control. Alive or dead.

I’ve seen lots of people talking about the whole “turians from the same family SHOULD have the same markings but Bioware ignores their own lore” stuff, and most of the time they’re right.
But I CAN see a reason why Vetra and Sid would have different markings. Not because its how its meant to be, but rather how Vetra wanted it to be. I like to think that Vetra purposely made sure that her sister got different markings than her so that any enemies she may make in her work as a smuggler wouldn’t actually recognise them as being related- if that makes any sense.
Its a further precaution to protect Sid from her work. Idk I think its a kinda plausible explanation for in game stuff. Even though the chances are high that it was indeed just Bioware being lazy/not knowing their own damn lore.

WIP....wait, it’s actually Wednesday??
Tagged by the forever awesome @jeannedarcprice. Have another excerpt from the Days Gone AU I’m working on. This is a part of one of Gil’s memories that’s going to appear at some point in the fic (I don’t yet know where, though.)
~Start of the “freaker virus” outbreak, Boston, Massachusetts:
It was meant to be a two-week visit to America. Two weeks to visit my friends and more importantly, to spend time with Meri. Then Vetra and Suvi’s wedding was meant to be near the end of it, then they’d get on a plane to their honeymoon while I caught my flight back to London.
But to Hell with all that, of course.
All flights were grounded mere hours after my arrival. That was when Jill really began to worry. Meri picked up on it, I know she did—kids aren’t stupid, after all. I did what I could to try and soothe them both—probably used some sappy drivel or something about how this all couldn’t last. Doesn’t matter, because it didn’t really work, anyway.
The next day, Vetra calls. She and Suvi were moving their wedding up to that afternoon.
“She’s terrified,” Vetra had told us on the phone. “She’s convinced that if we don’t do it as soon as possible, then we may never get to. And I think she’s right.”
Suvi knew a preacher that was willing to perform the ceremony at the last minute. So it was just the preacher, his wife, me, Jill, Meri, and Sidera at the preacher’s house. We’d all tried to get in touch with everyone else who was supposed to be there—some weren’t answering their phones, and some were just too far away to make it in time. We all tried not to think about it, honestly.
Then the news just started getting oh-so-much-more cheery. That the hospitals were already beyond capacity wasn’t new. That the dead were starting to number in the millions wasn’t new either. That those who hadn’t died were turning into cannibalistic monsters also wasn’t.
What was new was that the ones who were turning were gathering together into what they were calling “hordes,” and no one seemed to know how to contain them. So they were running rampant everywhere, invading entire towns and killing whoever couldn’t run away from them fast enough. They’d stopped keeping track of the number of infected people, so many were getting sick.
Then the hordes started overrunning the large cities. Evacuation orders started going out. I think it took about two days before the news channels all stopped broadcasting. Then phone calls stopped going through.
I think that was the point where I knew that shit was seriously fucked now.
Meri had started staying closer and closer to me, her hand sliding into one of mine at random times. I could tell she was trying to not be scared. I wanted to tell her it didn’t matter, because we were all scared.
I had always thought she’d been so small for an eleven-year-old. When I would look at her, meaning to reassure her with some ridiculous and pointless platitude, it would die in my mouth.
My daughter was afraid, and I had to help her to not be.
So all I could do was hug her and hope it was enough.
I think it was about the time that the cellular towers stopped working that Vetra, Suvi, and Sid came over. They were leaving Boston, and they wanted us to come with them. Jill and I only glanced at one another. Decisions like this never really called for a debate between the two of us—we both always knew when we were in agreement with one another. Meri, smart girl that she was, seemed to know what the decision was before either of us had said anything and ran straight to her room to begin packing.
We followed their example; one backpack each containing a change of clothes and the barest essentials, with the hope that we could get more wherever we were going. Jill didn’t even bother locking the door when we left. She never said anything, and no one else bothered mentioning it, but that was when we all knew that we weren’t coming back. And several of her neighbors had had the same idea about leaving—several of them were packing their vehicles, others were walking like we were.
We wound up at the NERO refugee camp just outside of Boston. And it turned out we’d left just in time; word had begun circulating around the camp that they’d given the order to evacuate the city. People would be flooding the place within hours.
And they did just that. It didn’t even take a day before they had to start turning people away. The rumor was that they were being diverted to other refugee camps (were there any others to go to? Assuming they could even make it…) but some people had their doubts.
There was another rumor going around that NERO had executed a bunch of incoming people in their cars.
Vetra, Suvi, Sid, and I would find out later that that one was not a rumor, but a fact.
We’d all been at the refugee camp for a rather uneventful couple of days when shit went from bad to worse. Vetra was off somewhere trying to negotiate information out of anyone that would talk to her, and Jill had started working with the NERO scientists at the camp who were trying to come up with anything to try to help treat the people that were still getting sick. Suvi and I were trying to keep Sid and Meri entertained with a game of cards when we’d started to notice Meri was looking more and more pale and listless.
“I’m fine,” she said when I asked.
It was Sid who’d reached over and felt her forehead. “No you’re not, you’re burning up,” she pointed out.
I’d never truly felt that feeling of pure dread creeping down my spine before. First time for everything, I suppose.
The cards were forgotten as I picked Meri up and the four of us went to the medical tents. She was immediately put in a bed and hooked up to an IV. And Jill and Vetra had appeared from wherever they’d been.
The doctor diagnosing Meri with the virus was pretty much a formality. A cruel one, at that.
I wanted to punch him.
It wouldn’t have helped anything.
I held Meri’s hand instead. Jill held her other hand.
I don’t know how much time passed before the two NERO soldiers suddenly appeared, but I think it had only been a few hours. Meri had passed out not long after her diagnosis, and slept fitfully the entire time. But next thing I knew, there they were, armed and everything.
Then they told Jill that they were flying all of the scientists to another location, and demanded she come with them immediately.
“Hell no!” she’d protested.
“We don’t have time to argue,” one of them said. “Besides, your kid’s either gonna turn or die soon, anyway.”
“She said no, you prick!” I said. I could feel Suvi’s hand on my shoulder.
“She doesn’t have a choice,” the asshole argued. I hadn’t seen his partner move, but suddenly they had Jill by one arm and were tugging her away from Meri’s bedside.
“You fucking son of a—“ I started forward when they’d grabbed her, but was immediately cut off by the two rifle barrels suddenly pointing at me. I could feel Suvi clutching at my arm now.
“Turn loose of the girl and come with us,” the other asshole ordered, “Or I shoot your friends.”
“Gil, Suvi, it’s okay,” Jill said, pressing a kiss to the back of Meri’s hand and putting it down, and I could feel a surge of rage welling up at my helplessness to stop any of this.
“We’ll stay with her, we promise,” Suvi said, and before we could do anything else, Jill was ushered out of the medical tent.
I hadn’t realized that complete silence had fallen over the medical tent until I heard Vetra snarl “Motherfuckers” after the NERO guys left with Jill.
“Where are they taking mom?” Meri suddenly asked, and that was also when I realized she’d been awake for most, or all, of that confrontation.
“I don’t know, sweetheart,” I answered, taking her hand again. That was when I realized a third, then a fourth, thing.
“Where are all the doctors?” someone at another bedside said.
“They’re all leaving,” Sid answered the tent at large. There were gasps and denials, and several people ran outside to confirm what she’d said. I glanced up at her and Vetra as they arrived at Meri’s bed, and that was when I noticed they had all of our backpacks.
“It’s true,” Vetra said. “I heard one of them mention that there was a massive horde headed this way. We have less than ten minutes to get the hell out of here.” More gasps and denials went around. Then someone came back.
“She’s right,” the woman said. “All the NERO people are gone and I just saw the last helicopter take off.”
“What the fuck??” someone else shouted.
“Where are we supposed to go?” a third person demanded.
Not that anyone had an answer, of course. Suvi reached down and started unhooking Meri’s IV, and several other people started moving around.
And then
“HORDE INCOMING!!!! HORDE INCOMING!!!!!” a man ran by the tent shouting.

Vetra and Ryder tried to keep their relationship known to only the Tempest crew but the next time they went to the Nexus almost everyone was congratulating them or grinning at them.
Turns out Sid couldn't keep her mouth shut and told everyone she saw how her sister is dating the Pathfinder.

Tiran Kandros was many things. He ran Apex, had helped to keep the Nexus secure and deployed all forces when the Archon had come storming the gates. And the aftermath left a lot of people rebuilding on the Nexus and quickly established Hyperion City. But given the scale of the rebuilding that was needed for the Nexus and the downed Hyperion, most resource allocation meant that a large chunk went to repairing the Nexus and then shoring up the Hyperion to integrate it into the cliffside and make it liveable.
Which mean a lot of replacement furniture and such being sent out… like this.

"This will be fun. Like watching vids with Sid when she was little." Just got me imagining Vetra repeatedly having to watch the same vid over and over with Sid (who needs to be as close to the screen as possible as kids do!) but secretly enjoying it as she gets to spend normal time with her little sister. So I made a very quick doodle...sorry!
