After being exiled from known space following a disastrous failed colonization attempt, the Migrant Fleet makes First Contact with Earth in 1968. Chaos ensues. AU Historical First Contact, Humans/Quarians. It's finally fucking done.
Light Yagami was in high school when he got the Death Note, and few of you seem to realize how important his age was to the plot. Allow me to show you: Stephanie Wong is a 29 year old American leftist who is given the Death Note shortly after the fall of Roe v. Wade. Three guesses on what happens next and the first two don't count. AU. She's MUCH more cautious than Light ;)
