    Summary

    The first time they met, it wasn’t a meeting—it was a collision. A forced fusion, like ramming two storms into one body too fragile to hold the weight. There was no handshake, no polite introductions. Just fire, noise, and panic as his consciousness exploded into hers—her thoughts bleeding into his, his rage clawing against her fear. Confusion wasn’t even the word for it. It was brutality. Two wills, too sharp and too stubborn, trapped in a skull meant for one.

    A dying girl and the ghost of a dead man, forced to share a body, go from enemies to something beyond soulmates—entwined by grief, rage, and the unbearable intimacy of trying to survive.

    Summary

    i know this whole damn city thinks it needs you, but not as much as i do

     

    Johnny wakes up in the head of a delusional merc who reminds him far too much of himself. They have a lot of shit to figure out before one or both of them flatlines.
    Or,
    A series of inter-connected drabbles from Johnny's POV that are (mostly) canon-compliant.

     

    She’s him but better. A sniper rifle to his bomb. And really, he should count himself lucky to have ended up in her head. It could’ve been worse. A lot worse.

    Summary

    Can be read standalone, although you might not want to.
    A lot of research went into this.

     

     

    Goro buried the dreams and expectations of his childhood when he left the slums of Chiba-11 for a career at Arasaka. Decades later, he is blessed beyond measure — married to the woman he loves.
    A family of two is more than he had ever hoped for, and yearning for anything else would be foolish: his young thief is clearly not meant to be a mother.

    Until she decides differently.

    *

    Vee thought that the tapeworm experience would've been prep enough for a gig as a human incubator. But sharing a body is way different than sharing a brain, and in many ways, it's worse.
    One thing both got in common is the expiration date. Just that this time, she's not gonna flatline.

    What's not to love?

    *

    If anyone would've asked Viktor if the kid wanted kids of her own, he'd have laughed in their face: he tied her tubes, twice. So when she calls about pregnancy, his first thought is that she needs a discreet ripper for one of her contacts.
    Turns out, she needs help for herself, and a much different kind.

    But that's what friends are for, isn't it?

    Summary

    V seems to want to join the BD industry as an actor, specifically in the smut category. She ended up making an audition virtue that needed some editing. As it turns out, Judy was the only BD editor in the district able to do the job on such short notice.

     

    -Nothing is as it seems, especially when everyone has a different point of view-

    This is a POV change fic that goes Judy-V-Judy-V and so on. Every two chapters will be the same scene/timeframe as each other, just told from the different perspectives. The title of the chapter will indicate whose POV it is from. It is recommended to read both as there are always two sides to one story.

     

     

    This is my first fic please bare with me!

    Summary

    "Sam, I know that you normally refuse human cargo, but I’m not sure I trust anyone else to handle this."

    Sam didn’t need to know who his cargo was, he didn’t need to know what the specifics were of their past, or what would happen to them once they were delivered. The less Sam knew the better. It would be a whole lot easier for both of them if he kept his distance, and just did his job. Right?

    ~

    It should have been like any other job. Collect the cargo, deliver it in one piece, and move on. Sam didn't like to get attached, and he certainly avoided making connections whenever possible. However, this delivery would turn out very differently from what he had planned.

    Summary

    The extinction failed, Higgs finds himself stranded back in the world of the living with no purpose--nothing to give his continued existence any meaning. Naturally, he orders a pizza.

    Summary

    Clifford Unger opened his eyes.

    The gun was still there. Lisa's heart monitor beeped away. But he hadn't fired the gun yet. He hadn't fired because he suddenly knew what was about to happen. Or what could happen if seemingly inconsequential choices were made, like taking a few seconds too long or turning down a different corridor.

    They weren't memories exactly. It was impossible how to describe them, but what was important was the information he got from them. He knew what to do. He knew how to save himself and his BB.

    Summary

    Life in Night City is not easy, especially if you are different from other people. Night City was able to tame V somewhat, to limit her urges. But the closer she lets her friends get to her, the closer they get to the truth that V herself can't even stand.
    The truth of being different, being a monster. The truth with which she could put her friends in danger or save them.

    Summary

    In the aftermath of V’s disappearance, Judy struggles to move on, haunted by the love she lost and the city that seems more suffocating with each passing day. After finally carving out a new life far from Night City's chaos, she's unexpectedly pulled back into the shadows of her past, forced to confront unresolved feelings and painful memories.

    Meanwhile, V battles with the ghosts of her past and the heavy burden of choices that have altered her future. Navigating a city that no longer feels like home, she is haunted by lost memories and broken promises. Her journey becomes one of redemption, self-discovery, and the search for a new purpose.

    This story delves into the aftermath of difficult decisions, the cost of survival, and the enduring hope that, even in the darkest corners of a cyberpunk world, there remains a chance to rebuild and reclaim what was lost.

    In short: This is a Tower ending fix-it, but fair warning - it's the slowest of burns.

    “I'll bring your rent down by a hundred,” Reed had said. “If you stick to the rules.”

    There were two things fundamentally wrong with this arrangement. One was that V had never seen So Mi in realspace, despite being roommates for almost a year. The other was that—from their neighbors perspective—V had mild schizophrenia.

    Summary

    Omegas are the rarest presentations in human society, highly valued and sought after. But in Night City, it also comes with a death sentence. They are hunted, bought and sold, bred, and used as personal playthings. It's unfair, but that is life in Night City.

    For V, though, it is unacceptable. She has been in hiding all her life, refusing to go down the typical, expected path of an unclaimed omega, but when the opportunity comes to be in the shoes of the ones who run society, the alphas, she takes it -- and no, it is not because of the alpha terrorist stuck in her head.

    For Panam, being an alpha means being seen as a senseless animal with no regard to others, bestial and destructive. That is not who she is, or at least that is not who she wants to be, but it's hard to fight the stereotypes when she believes them herself...
