This is a part two to my previous fill: Juxtaposed that now involves the events of ME1. I will make sure not to make this a walk through and only put in things that are pivotal to the story. The premise is what would it be like if Jane and Garrus were married before ME1

Only thing she had heard about this run was that it was simply to test the stealth systems. She understood if the Hierarchy wanted to see the Normandy in action in its maiden voyage by sending in a representative to see it work in person, but a Spectre

Shaking her head, Jane avoids that mess knowing full well that if the cockpit has taught her anything, she’s bound to just rip someone’s ass if they tell her Nihlus shouldn’t be aboard and that their situation isn’t normal for the Normandy’s maiden voyage. Honestly, what’s the big deal? He’s not breathing down everyone’s necks and there isn’t any secrets of the ship that Turians don’t know since they helped build it, which everyone seems to forget

Well, I guess it would explain the hard time I have trying to avoid the guy so I don’t slip up and do or say something I would with Garrus and end up breaking our rule of professionalism. She can’t really respond with her thoughts so the two continue, taking her silence for being in deep consideration.
It’s when Nihlus makes reference to her nightmare on Akuze that she can’t remain polite and interrupts. “I’m sorry but, with all due respect, what does me being lucky enough and fast enough to survive a Maw have to do with being a Spectre?” She looks to Anderson. “How does that show the galaxy what the Alliance has to offer?” She makes sure to use almost his exact words to prove her point.
“I put your name forward for the Spectres, Shepard.” Nihlus draws her attention and she catches a glimpse of an intrigued mandible flick. Good to know he finds my utter confusion enjoyable. Save me from Turians who enjoy watching me flounder. “I see potential in all of your actions in your service record. Akuze was a test of survival, not

Joker tells them that comm traffic is completely dead from the planet, which is disturbingly odd to think of with so much reliability on it for a colony world. The Captain orders the pilot to find a certain frame of the video and when it fills the screen, Jane is giving another opportunity to witness that strange ship. She sees Nihlus’ mandibles flicker in disbelief out of the corner of her eye and finds herself completely agreeing with the sentiment as she lays eyes on a build of ship that seems more creature that transport

Novelization is good for now - thank you for skipping the in-game dialogue - but try to keep it at this level or lower. And yeah, the ME3 and DAI cutscenes make ME1's kind of a chore to sit through.

-Jane-
“It’s really you… Wow! It’s Commander Shepard!” Jane is pulled out of her thoughts by an enthusiastic voice at the top of the stairs leading into the shopping district of the wards from C-Sec.
Her steps stutter a bit at the wide eyed expression of shear awe on the blonde man’s face, her companions’ steps stopping quickly at her back and nearly bumping into her. Her eyes dart around the room, still mostly focused on this stranger so she can catch if he tries anything.
What the hell? She turns to continue on her way to Chora’s Den, keeping this oddball in her peripheral, when he calls out again. “Wait Commander Shepard!”
Well, I tried… Jane inwardly huffs and turns her attention to the anxious individual, her two companions groaning softly behind her. Trust me, I don’t want to talk to this nutcase any more than you two do, so stop complaining.“Wow, it is really you… You’re Commander Shepard, the Hero of Eden Prime! I am so honored to meet you.” He clasps his hands together with a loud slap and Jane fights her lips

That was the worst of finding the Turian dead at the spaceport, not the fact that it would possibly affect her Spectre training like Anderson seemed to be concerned with but the fact that he wasn’t even given a chance to defend himself or see his killer. To go out fighting was a good death, one that she felt was worthy if it was inevitable, but by the looks of his wound he was shot almost point blank. The dock worker only confirmed that suspicion when he told his story and turned the entire mission on its head

He sighs and drops his head, probably feeling like her and not wanting to ruin the little time they have together with a fight they both have different views on and may never budge on. After a moment of silence that drags in the still bedroom, he squeezes her hand. “Did anything happen when you got the vision

He hums with a soft flicker of his free mandible and moves closer, their mouths coming together in a passionate kiss of two people with complete love and devotion for the other. They pull away despite their desire and inner pull to remain in position. “Good luck out there with the Council, Jane. I’ll be sure to bring you something to help your case.” He quickly strokes a finger along her jaw before stepping out of their apartment with her at his back. “This case got a lot more personal.”

Yay, more of this. I can hardly wait to see them sneaking around. I think you did good with choosing what to use from game, and I am sure people would be happy with about the same amount to follow. But I am pretty sure we want lots of unseen moments between them and how they deflect interest from how well they seem to get along.

~A!A says: This is not an Ashley bashing, but simple two people not getting along because of completely differing views. I never personally liked her, but she is a good character. :)~
-Jane-
When Ambassador Udina had claimed to have gotten an audience with the Council, Jane hadn’t imagined it’d take so damn long to have the meeting.
Instead, I’m here sitting on a damn bench like I’m on vacation and not in full armor while waiting for the call to appear like a damn dog. She sighs and tosses her head back in frustration. They had been told to arrive at the Citadel Tower ten minutes ago, but with the knowledge that the Council wasn’t ready to see them, Anderson and the Ambassador had them wait here while they went ahead

To say the sight of her husband was one of an upset Turian would be a severe understatement; she’s sure ‘pissed off’ wouldn’t even come close either. Standing before the big fountain on the landing, Garrus seems to be arguing with another, older Turian, a coppery-tan male with geometric white markings, that she supposes is the superior who gave him the Saren case

Of course, when Anderson let slip the beacon’s vision, their entire case went out the window as insane ramblings. She had to hand it to Saren, he may be a complete asshole whose skull she wouldn’t hesitate to put a bullet into, but he knew how to sway an audience.
She listens to the back and forth between the two older men, Udina laying sole blame on her Captain’s presence and Anderson claiming their failure will lead to total destruction for their kind. A bit extreme of a reaction from both of them really, but she guesses that’s typical for politicians who get tossed around by a projection. All in all, she knows they came in here with nothing more than a hope and prayer, but the failure still stings.
Jane interrupts before their conversation can become too heated. “We need hard evidence against Saren. On our way up here we met with a C-Sec Officer who was certain he could get more evidence if given more time.” I sure hope you were on to something, Garrus, and not just arguing with your superior.“But we don’t know where to

“And I can guarantee I’ll find better company with a pack of rabid varren in heat.” Just go easy until the guy gives you what you want and then you can go, just whatever you do, don’t punch him with everything you got, she repeats, a mantra for patience. Just think of meeting up with Garrus. This is nothing to the option to get to chat with him, even if it has to look like a professional conversation.
“Ah, you’re going to hurt my feelings if you keep that up.” His leer widens and his eyes finally reach her eyes. “Luckily for you, working for C-Sec has given me thick skin. Offer is still open, sweetheart.” He pats his lap, caressing it once before taking his drink from the table to take a sip.
That’s it. Jane takes a threatening step forward. “Call me that one more time and there won’t be anything left of you to complain about C-Sec.” She tightens her fist and it glows a soft blue. A soft shuffle of feet behind her snaps her attention back to the fact that she’s here with a team, and that they were all sent here to get
