Hiii this is my first series so thank you so much for stopping by~
We start off towards the end of the game and go into some struggles V has after a Don't Fear the Reaper type of ending. I haven't played through that ending yet (because I keep dying) so please excuse some creative liberties I had to take.

Summary
A Pitch Black/Cyberpunk 2077 crossover (for you little shits, you know who you are) with very loose attention to space travel rules, actual science or anything resembling sense.
I’m taking some real liberties and laying down some wild bullshittery to cross these two fandoms. Lizzie crew in #river, this hot mess is for you. You guys are gonna kill me and I love you for it. Enjoy the ride!
This crossover is based on my two existing fanfics for Female V/River and Jack/Riddick. For Female V/River, this story takes place after 5. Anathema, but before 6. Vendetta. For Jack/Riddick, this would take place a few weeks after Hide & Seek.
See the first chapter note for more details.
Let this shenanigan commence!
Series
- Part 4 of Jack & Riddick
- Part 7 of River Ward made me write fanfic
