ME-Come Here!

Description

So I found myself a bit depressed over reality and uncertainties and just fucking surviving the next year of school. So instead of working on When You're Strange or And So They Fall (which is depressing the fuck out of me right now anyway, because of the story ark I'm on), I doodled Shakarian fluff. Which got colored. Which is probably going to get shaded/touched up more sometime because I think it's adorable. And my perspective is fucking terrible, holy shit.

I need a swear jar.

Turns out it was this little bit of work from :icondarksakura:=darksakura [link] and her lovely tumblr post [link] that turned my mood around. But this still makes me feel pretty fuzzy inside.

I think I'm going to draw the picture I keep putting on Garrus's bedside table next. And maybe a little story with it or something. I want to write more :P

SPEAKING OF STORIES. I wrote fluff to go with my fluff. Be nice, I don't usually write more than essays :P

"What do I do?" Hael sat at the end of the bed, her back to the concerned turian she was talking to and her head resting in the palms of her hands.

Garrus's mandibles twitched. He knew she was under a great deal of stress, which comes to no surprise given she's the figure head of the fight against the Reapers and the one person entrusted with the task of uniting an entire galaxy under a single banner. He had no doubt she could do it, if there was a person out among the stars who could do the impossible, it was Commander Shepard. Even then, the greatest of heroes were nothing more than people, and people have their breaking points. But she had managed so far, and he knew why.

"Come here," he said gently as he reached out to her.

She didn't respond beyond tiredly waving his hand off and muttering, "Not now" into her other hand. Garrus clenched his jaw and leaned forward, grabbing the stubborn human's arms and pulling her toward him, being careful to not pierce her delicate skin with his talons. She let out a shriek that ended in laughter as she landed against his warm chest and found herself imprisoned in his strong embrace.

"I'll tell you what you're going to do," he whispered as he nuzzled the side of her face with his own, "You're going to sit here and not worry about a damn thing. Just for a few minutes."

"But what about the-" Her words were cut off by a swift kiss.

"Just for a few minutes," he repeated as she relented and rested her head against his own, sighing softly.

Shepard had gotten this far because she had friends among the people she was uniting, friends that she loved and cared for. While he was too humble to admit it, Garrus knew that he was the one that truly kept her sane, the one that she fought hardest for. She'd lay her life down for him without a second thought and he would do the same for her in a heartbeat. Their bond kept them going, kept them fighting their hardest despite the impossible challenges lying before them. Race, Reapers, nothing could come between them, they were with each other until the end. This was their small truth in a galaxy of uncertainties; it was what kept them fighting to make sure 'the end' came for them much, much later.


So yeah. Fluffy fluff-ness. I'm gonna go tumblr until I pass out.
