Summary
Unanswered question: What happened to Tank?
We all remember that confusion after seeing Reloaded and realising that Tank was mysteriously dead without knowing how. Many have attempted to answer this question (usually death from sepsis following his burns in M1), but this is my version of how things could have gone. I hope you enjoy!

Summary
"The Oracle told me that I would fall in love, and that the man I loved would be the One. So you see? You can't be dead, because I love you."
Set right after Morpheus got caught by the agents in the first chapter of the trilogy.
An alternative version of the full trilogy in which Trinity and Neo's love changes the course of events, completely. -
Tags
Summary
Set pre-Resurrections, in one of the failed simulations created by the Analyst.
“Good evening, and welcome to another episode of The Love Doctor. I am your host, Thomas A. Anderson, and for the next hour I am on the air to diagnose and cure all matters of the heart. The theme for tonight? Soulmates.”

Summary
Death of another one of Neo's unnamed predecessors, now the crew has to deal with the situation.
Apoc/Switch centric because that's what I do.
This one loosely ties in with most of my other headcanon stories.
Three very short chapters. -
Tags
Summary
Apoc finds an old, printed volume of poetry by Emily Dickinson and tries to read it to the others, with mixed results.
Mostly fluff. -
Tags
Summary
A glimpse into the past. As mentioned in "Jump Scares", Switch had some trouble to overcome a fear of heights and falling before making the jump. Trinity and Apoc decide to help out a little. Cypher is as antagonistic as ever.
(Ties in with "Different Freedoms" and "Get Them Talking About Guns".)
First truly new story since starting to post my stuff here, and it even has chapters!

Tags
Summary
Being a misfit even in a band of misfits, looking for the lines to walk. Odd little thing, more exploratory fragment than story. Sort of a prequel/alternative telling to "White Gun", "Different Freedoms", and the rest of my "neurodivergent Switch" arc/headcanon. Rambly mess ahead.
Kinda personal one, handle with care.
[rated T for implied mental health struggles]

Tags
Summary
One of his early days out of the Matrix, Neo ends up in in a conversation that goes a little different than expected (because some people on the ship need a special interest besides searching for the One.) Weird fluff for fun.
[rated T for characters being a bit too fascinated by weapons] -
Tags
Summary
Apoc swipes some unusual equipment from the loading program. (Random sweet one-shot, or: how to keep yourself entertained on a dull watch. Same basic logic/premise as in Different Freedoms, The Quiet Sentry, etc.)
-
Tags
Summary
Another take on my ongoing "Switch has a slightly odd brain" theme. Today: Calibrating the jack-in parameters for the first visit of the construct, not everything is going as smoothly as planned. No character was permanently harmed in the making of this story. Might contain traces of a random OC because I needed an operator for this alternate timeline.
-
Tags
Summary
A tiny glimpse into the breakfast the morning after Neo's first encounter with the jump program. Just a dialog vignette of how many tries it might have taken each of the crew members.
-
Tags
Summary
Behind the calm facade, there might be a moment of getting lost in old daydreams. Apoc having a moment of gloomy thoughts. (Switch and Apoc again, not quite a story, more of yet another introspective exploration within my little head canon world.)
-
Tags
Summary
Flashbacks to Switch uncovering the truth, starting to discover the existence of the Matrix by learning she can make life a bit easier for herself. Probably belongs to the same basic timeline as "White Gun" and "Different Freedoms", though with minor deviations in internal logic. More implied neurodivergent Switch.
-
Tags
Summary
The broadcast signal is breaking down, Switch is stuck in confusing code limbo, Apoc gets antsy. Technobabble and swearing ensue. (Once again not clear whether this falls on the shipping or friendship side of things. Can be read as both.)
-
Tags
Summary
Memories of Zion, a grounding gift, and a few open questions. Can be read together with my previous oneshot, "Different Freedoms", but contains no cinnamon. (Rated T just to be on the safe side as I'm not completely sure where exactly the line is drawn; the story is harmless imho.)
Do I need an archive warning for a gun that is never fired? I hope not. It's just being used as a sort of touchstone and fidget toy in this story.

Summary
Sometimes, reality is a bit too much. (Implied neurodivergent Switch.) Tank and Switch being cinnamon rolls.
-
Tags
Summary
"We'll be back in an hour." Apoc and Switch stay behind guarding the hotel delivery door, with time to spare for private musings. One last hour of quietude, though they probably don't know it; or do they? A sort of countdown. (Probably on the same timeline as two of my other stories, "White Gun" and "Different Freedoms".)

Summary
“I never thought that you would die,” he admits after a long moment, his voice trembling with every word. “I was ready to die, but I wasn’t ready to watch you…” he cuts off, unable to continue, ashamed of the foolish arrogance he’d possessed, that he could keep her alive through sheer force of will.

Summary
Trinity never used the word “snuggle”, but if that’s what she wanted, he was willing to snuggle as long as she would allow.
