"Say You Won't Let Go" (Scott Ryder/Gil Brodie, Mass Effect: Andromeda)

"You made me feel as though I was enough..." Gil's point of view on his relationship with the Pathfinder.

I decided to playthrough every available romance for both Scott and Sara and I was honestly floored by how much I loved Scott and Gil! They just seem to have such *happiness* in being together, it really hit me right in my fangirly heart. When I stumbled across this song, I immediately wanted to vid it for them. (And I was pleasantly surprised that there was enough footage ~barely~ to support Gil's p.o.v., lol 😉)

If you choose to watch, I hope you enjoy! I'm pretty sure that Andromeda's not done with me yet so expect to see a couple more vids set in the Heleus Cluster whenever something strikes my muse's fancy. 💖

PS - If Gil's voice actor sounds familiar, that's because he's Gethin Anthony, who played Renly Baratheon in Game of Thrones. 😉

Lovebirds

I had the sudden urge to draw them. Gotta say, I've had worse attempts at drawing a character for the first time. Love how cheesy it turned out.

Please don't repost my art. Thank you.

They Include You preview

Jaal had never known any other time in his life that he had been so terrified, or at the very least, he couldn't think of one now. The time he felt closest to this feeling, on the top of his head, was back at the Archon's flagship.

Yet this was worse. Back at the flagship, S.A.M. had some degree of guarantee that he could bring Scott back. However this time, S.A.M. being forcibly taken was the reason Scott was down once more.

Jaal had checked for a pulse, as he had Liam tell him to do after they'd return to the Tempest with the relic that seemed like such a long time ago.

He felt nothing.

Barely keeping himself from going to hysterics, Jaal stood upright once more and tried contacting the Tempest once more while Drack tried forcing the door open by brute force alone.

"Rrrgh! Open!"

"Tempest, the Pathfinder is down!" Jaal growled into his Omni-tool for the umpteenth time, "Come in!"

Fear was clenching his heart tightly in its fist, and Jaal could hardly breath. He couldn't lose his Taoshay, not to the Kett. Skutt, not to anything.

As if it was an answered prayer, that was the moment they heard a sharp intake of breath and see Scott sitting up. Not even waiting five minutes, he zoned into the console and staggered towards it.

"Ryder! You were dead."

Jaal would've made a comment that stating the obvious wasn't necessary, but he was still reeling in his emotions. He wanted to hug Scott, to kiss him for all he was worth, to cry tears of relief and gratitude that he wasn't forever lost to him. But the Angara had been too stunned to react, and Scott's urgency to keep moving despite just coming back from the dead...

Again.

Ignoring the remark, the Pathfinder leaned heavily against the Console, as if his body was drained of energy once more after Scott took a few steps towards the console.

"The Hyperion's dark, S.A.M. with it..." Scott huffed, "We need to get back."

Understanding the implications of that statement, Jaal looked alarmed. "Wait, wait! That door is Remnant," he emphasized, like Scott needed the reminder. "You need S.A.M."

"We need" Scott strained, yet he sounded more determined than usual. "to get back."

Planning to write a complete fic of this in ao3

Mass Effect Andromeda - #4 - Taken Hostage

*

Ryder ran fast, lungs begging for a break. He ignored the ache and pressed on, legs carrying him as fast as he could manage.

The Tempest was in view, but Ryder still felt so damn far from it. He couldn’t get the distress call out of his head, and it encouraged him to run even faster, nearly tripping over his own feet with his speed.

But they reached the Tempest finally. Ryder called out as soon as they were onboard, heart slamming in his chest from the run and from sheer fear of what they’d find.

“Ryder!” Suvi hurried over to them. “We’ve called the others back.”

“What happened?” Ryder demanded. Liam and Cora shifted anxiously behind him.

“Come with me,” she said, leading them through the ship to the medbay. 

Inside, Lexi was tending to Kallo. He weakly turned his head to face them before dropping his gaze in shame, turning away again.

“Where-” Ryder pressed his lips together in a tight line, breathing deeply through his nose. “Is everyone alright?”

Suvi stepped away from him, fidgeting with her hands. “Ryder, we- that is-”

“Suvi.” Lexi shot her a reassuring look, gesturing at her to sit. She turned to Ryder, expression turning serious. “You need to hear what happened first. They boarded the ship. We thought it was the others returning early. One snuck up to Kallo to keep us from being able to take off and signal for help. They attacked him, but didn’t know Suvi was nearby. She managed to rescue him and bring him down to me. They were trying to kill us, Ryder. I had no choice but to lock the door and barricade the three of us in here.”

“You left him out there on his own,” Ryder said numbly. “You left Gil to fend for himself.”

“We had no choice,” Lexi repeated firmly. “Kallo was injured and barely conscious. We were unarmed. There were four of them chasing Suvi and Kallo. I made a call, and I stand by it.” Her stern expression wavered. “I called you for help just as they tried to break in. We warned Gil. We did. But it was too late.”

Ryder slumped against the wall. “Is he…?”

“They took him,” Suvi said, pressing her hands against her lap. “We think they were after him all along, and were just trying to kill us off or take us as a bonus.”

“We think they know you and Gil are together. They took him as a hostage to lure you in,” Lexi said.

Ryder couldn’t fall apart. He couldn’t. He needed to call in reinforcements, regroup with the others, and spread out to search for Gil.

But he allowed himself a brief moment of weakness to put his face in his hands and let a shudder rock through his body. Gil was a goddamn engineer, not a soldier. 

Ryder knew Gil was scared of the battles they were encountering. He put on a flippant attitude around the others, but Ryder picked up on the subtleties in his speech, the concern buried beneath each modification to the Tempest. He’d been working hard to prepare Ryder for battle, but when the fight finally came, Ryder was off playing diplomat while Gil faced the enemy alone.

Ryder would never forgive himself. All he could do now was try to get Gil back safely.

***

It was hours before they sent the ransom note, accompanied by a live video.

In it, Gil, bound and bloodied, was forced to speak. The kidnappers allowed Ryder to send over three phrases for Gil to repeat to prove it was a live video, and Gil’s trembling voice as he repeated each one broke Ryder’s heart just as surely as it solidified his resolve. 

Then came the instructions, none of which were a surprise. Ryder was to come alone, meeting at the designated spot in an hour and bringing with him a list of all officials aboard the Nexus, all current outposts, and the leaders of all those outposts. It was exactly what someone would need to cause the downfall of the Initiative

Ryder did indeed have a list with him, but it was all false information. As he approached the meeting spot, he tried to appear stoic. If this plan went wrong, Gil would pay the price.

Ryder wasn��t surprised to find the perpetrators masked. One pat him down while he observed the scene. One held onto Gil’s arm. His wrists were bound behind him securely, and he was struggling to stay upright, trying to take the weight off his right ankle.

“Fancy meeting you here, Ryder,” he said, giving a shaky smile. Blood was drying on his face.

“Not our finest date,” Ryder said, trying to keep his tone light. He held up the list, rolled up to hide the false writing on it. “A piece of paper for the galaxy’s finest engineer. That was the deal, right?”

The kidnapper who had patted him down stepped forward. The other held a knife to Gil’s throat hard enough that Gil winced and a thin line of blood bloomed across his skin.

“You’ll hand that over, I’ll confirm the information, and then he’s yours. If the information is fake…” He shrugged and gestured. 

The man holding Gil pulled the blade away from his neck and plunged it into his shoulder. Gil cried out, trying to struggle away and only succeeding in making the blade twist in his flesh.

“Stop!” Ryder snarled.

“Enough,” the one near him said. The other pulled the blade from Gil’s shoulder and held it back to his neck. “I believe the Pathfinder understood the demonstration quite well.” 

Ryder took a cautious step forward. “I put this in your hand and your man takes the knife away. When I let go, Gil and I get to step back while you confirm the information.”

“Fair enough,” the kidnapper said, holding his hand out. 

Ryder kept a tight grip on the list as he placed it in the kidnapper’s hand. He didn’t release it until the other man dropped the knife.

He let go and in a swift motion, grabbed Gil and pulled him protectively behind himself. The kidnapper swapped his knife for a gun, aiming it at Ryder.

He never got a chance to fire. These idiots seemed to have forgotten that Ryder was never unarmed, and never without his team.

“I have contacted the others,” SAM said as Ryder sent a burst of biotic energy forward. It threw both kidnappers against the wall with brutal force. “They are on their way.”

“Thanks.” Ryder stepped forward and took the gun that had fallen from the kidnapper’s hand when he hit the wall. He aimed it at the kidnappers as he slowly moved back towards Gil, reaching out for him with his free hand.

Gil clasped it. Ryder felt wretched at the way Gil’s hand trembled.

Neither spoke. They waited in tense silence until the rest of the Pathfinder team arrived to subdue the kidnappers for questioning. Cora snatched up the fake list as Ryder squeezed Gil’s hand and guided him out and towards the Tempest, Gil limping badly and using Ryder’s shoulder to steady himself.

He stopped once they were outside, out of view of the others. He turned and gently cupped Gil’s bloody, bruised face in his hand, hating the way Gil flinched at the touch.

“I’m sorry,” Ryder whispered.

“I knew you’d…” Gil couldn’t finish the sentence, just clutched Ryder. 

Ryder hugged him tightly, kissing his hair. “Gil. Gil, I’m sorry. I’m so sorry.”

Gil didn’t respond. His shoulders were shaking in the way of a man trying to contain sobs. Ryder closed his eyes and held him tighter. 

Both of their worst nightmares had just come true. It didn’t matter if Ryder could get him back in the end; the fact that Gil had been taken hostage in the first place meant he wasn’t safe, even in the Tempest, even in the company of the Pathfinder. 

“I’m sorry,” Ryder choked out again, as if it would change anything, and held onto Gil.

This was my first time writing Ryder/Gil, sorry if it’s rough :’)

Yay, I finished Scott and Peebee's romance, just Scott/Jaal to go and I'll have completed my goal of trying out every romance option in Mass Effect: Andromeda! 🥳🎉

But I, um, backed up to where we landed the first time on Kadara so Scott and I could, wellllll... So we could

Awwwww yeahhhhh, that was my expression, too, Scott! Yep. I literally clicked that trigger faster than any other in the game, except maybe for...

Ahem. Now, onward to Jaal! (Sorry for the detour, babe, you know I can't resist Reyes. I might, er, also be doing a little bit of very light flirting with Gil, too. As one does, you know.)

Jaal: ...the absolute heck? :(

Me and Scott: We just have so much love to give. 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♂️

Early morning routine? Gil tries to get ready while Ryder is trying his best to distract him? Who knows. Anyway, they still live rent free in my brain and I had to draw them again.

Even though we're both worked up here... we don't have to go too far. We can take it however you want: fast, slow. Now, later. I trust you, Gil. And I want you. Oh. Good.

WIP ANY DAY

I am considering myself tagged by @tessa1972 open post (thanks sweetie!💕)

So here I am working on my two OTPs💖

Scott and Gil cuddling, which actually started out as a commission that got changed, but there is no way I’m not finishing this cos they look so adorable! 💕

Aaaaand, people who know me well know that this sort of thing is inevitable. I answered the question as to whether Jill pulls on Carlos’ hair. Of course she does!

Free tagging anyone who wants to join in because it feels wrong to directly tag people to this kind of thirsty content! 😏

Scott signed for this one way trip into Unknown, because he was tired. Dead tired of constant disappointment of not finding his soulmate, of feeling this missing piece inside him, never clicking into place, rattling around, tearing his insides with sharp edges. But even now he could felt neat letters carved into skin of his wrist, two words that marked  him for life. Gil Brodie. 

Other words i at least decided to publish this one thing i was working on from ages, Enjoy!
