Summary

Prompt: so with the synthesis ending shep is basically distributed across the entire galaxy, and possibly has been indoctrinated by the reapers, so she's basically been turned into a galactic indoctrination virus making all organics part synthetic and vice versa. D:

what if she starts kind of... haunting garrus? it could be a creepy 'poor garrus thinks he's going nuts because he keeps seeing/hearing/imagining his dead indoctrinated girlfriend on this planet they've been marooned on', or it could be 'shep is kind of reconstituting herself from the scattered data she got turned into using garrus as a focal point', or whatever but I'm not really looking for a ~happi endo~ at all.

the indoctrination theory is really fascinating and anon would like to see fic that actually uses the endings as presented (not that fixit fic isn't awesome as well, but there are a lot of those already). anon wants something creepy and for garrus to be kind of tormented and maybe a bit horrified.
