Rusty grew up believing the Starlight Express would always guide him home. Momma taught him to look to the brightest star whenever he felt lost, and for a long time, the legend was enough to keep his hope alive.
But the world has changed. Steam engines are disappearing, the yards grow colder, and faith begins to crack under the weight of reality.

Tags
Summary
Requests open, (any character, any version of the show, et cetra ) I am no longer taking requests that include smut/sexual content regarding most characters/productions - leave requests them in the comments or you can request via Tumblr (@notkithart, details on profile)
Commissions open see @allsortsofthings-sb on Tumblr for details
For the previous fic containing one shots, see my profile to use the following link:
https://archiveofourown.org/works/57936436/chapters/147482383
I have tagged all the characters and relationships as best I can but please scan through and see if there is something you want as I have tried my best to organise it in an easy to read and navigate way.
Anthropomorphising/humanisation of characters (especially physically) will vary (so if you have a preference for a request specify)
(Apologies in advance for my knowledge on the history of this very complex production, please do give notes in the comments about what is right and wrong for the characters - be brutal if a character seems off. I do my research and know a decent amount but still can make mistakes as I am human)

An (ir)rational fear towards repair trucks by Ohwell1imdrowinginginideas
Fandoms: Starlight Express - Phillips/Stilgoe/Webber
23 Nov 2025
Tags
Summary
The morning following the race, Hydra’s glares and guilt has been eating Lumber and Porter alive. Having enough, they finally go and apologize to Rusty. Rusty, being the way too forgiving soul he is, accepts it, but asks Porter if it was because of the crash that stopped him from racing.
*My interpretation of the fandom’s universal headcanon of Porter not racing due to a crash in the past.

Beneath the Current by AHeartsEcho (AHeartsWhisper)
Fandoms: Starlight Express - Phillips/Stilgoe/Webber
15 Nov 2025
Tags
Summary
A week had passed since race night. Since Electra, Greaseball, and Slick had crashed after their hubris got the better of them, and since Rusty had got the girl and won the grand prize. A week of all four being stuck in the repair shed, to fix the damage that had been caused because apparently, racers were allergic to staying out of trouble.
And finally, after Electra was discharged, pride a little wounded but somehow intact, Lumber had announced a party at the Freight Yard, to celebrate Rusty, and also maybe give everyone the chance to de-stress.
Porter hadn't expected anyone to bother with him. He especially hadn't expected for someone to approach, or for it to be Electra.

Out of everyone he was expecting to see tonight, Rusty’s absolute last guess would have been Porter.

A little birdie told me you were all alone, no other little freights to keep you company." They cooed.

"Guess his wonderful parter will have to take him back to their shed for the night."
Or, Porter is the only freight left in the yard, Electra takes great advantage of this.
