Summary
Akechi sat in a quiet cafe across from a dark haired, determined boy. The warmth of LeBlanc eased into him, trying to goad him into taking down the protective walls he'd built around himself. He wouldn't, though.
Not while those silver eyes watched him like they wanted to open him up, expecting him to dump his life story onto the table between them.
In that cafe, Akechi could only know one thing for certain: There was no point letting Akira worm his way under his skin.The path that he was walking would end up with one of them dead.
--
The story of Persona 5 Royal, but told from Akechi’s perspective.

The one, painfully obvious romance option we all desperately wanted but didn't get. So here you go: The long awaited Takemura Romance DLC. Sort of.
In the City of Dreams, Nomad V finds herself in a rather precarious situation, forced to work together with Arasaka bodyguard Goro Takemura to try and save her life. Amidst street fights, secret missions, corpo shenanigans and regular Night City life, V and her unlikely companion find out that they get along maybe a little too well...
Welcome to Night City! Where nothing ever works out as intended and dreams just might turn into nightmares instead.-------------------------------------------------
There are two different endings to this story, both based on real endings the player can get ingame. You can reach the endings by choosing the chapters marked with T (for ending 1) or D (for ending 2), after chapter 17.In some dialogues I used cut content that was found by a nice reddit user and uploaded online.
This story was written in 22/23 and was previously posted via Google Docs on a subreddit for Cyberpunk 2077.

Summary
"Claiming the land, claiming its pain, claiming its death..."
The Stolen Lands is a wilderness of rugged beauty, infested by bandits, monsters and other dangers, wedged between countries that know better than to try and claim it. One day, however, a neighbouring ruler starts to recruit adventurers, intending to break the rule of bandits on the Stolen Lands and organise it into a puppet state.
Guelder, an elven druid carrying the curse of lycanthropy, is one of the many who heed the call, and the one who ultimately prevails. It will be her task to bring law and order to the Stolen Lands, walking a thin line between building civilisation and preserving nature. As she gradually discovers the secrets of the land, she realises she has wandered to the playground of mysterious powers that use her as a pawn in their game, like they did so many others before her – and those powers do not want her to succeed.
Will she be able to break the cycle and build a kingdom that will survive her? -

Summary
Kesten Garess was once a noble son of Brevoy — now he is a man without a house. In the Stolen Lands, he clings to duty as Warden and reluctant protector of a baroness whose fire is as dangerous as it is mesmerizing.
Haunted by her fragile ties to her noble family, she hides secrets beneath silk gloves and prayers whispered to the flames. She is an oracle of fire, a young scion of House Orlovsky trying to build a kingdom from nothing but ashes and uncertain alliances.
Yet the same fire that promises rebirth could devour them both. Kesten must decide whether to temper her flames with steel or surrender to a blaze that might consume the last pieces of himself he still calls his own.
At the same time, a relationship (slowly) develops between Teras, an oracle servant of Pharasma whose memories are vague, and Tristian.
Just as the new kingdom searches for its identity, so do the characters, amid curses, monsters, and unhealthy coping mechanisms.
