The Long War [Mass Effect SI - Halo Tech Elements] by Hyperion2708

Summary
Humanity had asked the question a thousand times in strategy forums, military think tanks, and drunken late-night arguments aboard warships:
Could the galaxy beat the Reapers in a conventional war?
The answer, after several simulations, sixteen classified studies, and one nervous breakdown from a Turian mathematician, was a unanimous, overwhelming, soul-crushing:
"No."
Not "maybe."
Not "with heavy casualties."
Not even "if the asari stop arguing for five minutes."
Just a colossal, galaxy-wide no.
But what if there are some Outside-context technologies thrown into the equation.
There only one problem, the man carrying all of this was not a chosen hero.
He was not a legendary admiral.
He was not a super soldier.
He was not even remotely qualified for this nonsense.
He was just some poor sod who got hit by cosmic fate like a drunken krogan driving a tank through a noodle shop. -

One Shepard. Three wars. A lifetime of consequences.

“I don’t know. I honestly don’t know.”

Summary
Before the Normandy, before Eden Prime, there was Vancouver. Shepard spent years rebuilding herself and fell in love with the man who she thought she had a future with.
Until heartbreak forced her to walk away.
Now, two years after the end of their engagement, Shepard and Kaidan are reunited aboard the Normandy, and time has done little to heal old wounds. Behind the distance and the years spent apart, neither has forgotten what they once meant to each other. Meanwhile, another man from her past refuses to let her go. As his obsession continues to follow her across the galaxy, Shepard comes across ancient artifacts containing knowledge from the unknown depths of history. The closer she gets to unraveling this mystery, the more she realizes some truths should stay hidden.
A rogue Spectre rises. Ancient entities begin to stir. And a biotic connection threatens to change everything she thought she knew about herself, the galaxy, and the man she never stopped loving. As old feelings reignite and the shadows of the past refuse to be left behind, Shepard and Kaidan must navigate war, betrayal, and secrets.
Some obsessions never die.
And some loves endure. To the stars and beyond.
