Loved it so much! This story was so funny and sweet and wonderful, I really hope you'll write a sequel. I'm ready to wait however long it takes, it's just to good to let go!

That was adorable! I love the little bit of fluff, but in general, there aren't enough stories about the two of them just being friends. So nice to read! Excellent work A!A

Wow, A!A, that was MAGNIFICENT. Stoned Garrus is probably one of the best things to ever grace Earth, and the humor in this fill was just excellent. (The story about the Mako had me in stitches for a good while; the mental image will stay with me for a long, loooong time). I really hope you'll write that sequel, because I adored this. :)

Ohmahgah too cute. Loved it!
To be honest with you, I originally didn't care much for this prompt, since I can't really identify with smokers. Nothing against it, it just ain't my thing. But after the first couple of sentences, I was hooked all the way to the end. It was so sweet and sexy! You captured this pair incredibly well and you described their experience without falling into cliches and stereotypes. BRAVO!!! PLEASE KEEP WRITING. FOR THE GREATER GOOD.
A!A here with an update. Sequel coming.

(I'm not sure if the post I wrote out last night got posted or not, so let's try this again)
Hey everybody, A!A here. Thank you so much for the kind words - it really means a lot to me that people liked my writing. I'm that pathetic guy who stops back every couple days looking for new comments on my story. :D
I've been working on the sequel, and it's coming along pretty well, albeit slowly. I'm dying to show you guys what I have so far (I'm a few pages in), but I have trouble writing in chapters. I kind of lay down a base story then I spend weeks obsessing and tweaking the whole thing... I've never written a sex scene before, so that is sure to be a new challenge.
I would say it'll be at least a month or two (probably more) until I can get it finished, but rest assured, there is more coming! I won't leave you hanging, dear reader.
I'll post the sequel in section XIV or XV, whatever the current one is. I will also post a link right here, so if you want to see more, keep checking back!
A!A again. Still writing, just about every day.

I was just thinking it's been a while since I checked in. I don't know how long it'll be still, but things are coming together faster than first time... I'm definitely more than half done.
No real news other than it's getting smutty, haha.
Oh man, I would love to do live updates as I write.

But I do too much dicking with things after the first draft. Tell you what: When I get things under control and it's really nearing completion, I'll edit from the top down so I can release it over the course of a week or two so I can at least start posting a little earlier.
I have a whole lot of work to do on this, but there a couple parts I'm dying to show you guys. I'm trying to strike a good balance in tone - I got a lot of feedback with people liking the humor in the first one, so I'm working on some funny stuff. However, we left things on a bit of a serious note in their relationship, so... my only beef is that part 2 is going to be wayyy too dirty for me to post on ff.net, and I really don't like the idea of censoring myself. I digress.

Too dirty for ff.net? Sounds promising. :) You could try getting an AO3 account, or posting to adultfanfiction.net, if you wanted to x-post off livejournal.
This fill is one of my favorites of all time, and I can't wait to see what you do with a sequel! In the meantime, I will be waiting (im)patiently. :)

Great job, A!A! Favorited it over on FF.net, too!

Yay, sequels! This was easily one of my favorite Shep/Garrus fics ever (partially because space-weed). I'll be waiting to see what you've got!

You'll see. I don't think you'll be disappointed.
Thanks for checking back!
