Summary
It hurt his head to think about what he was doing prior to… this, but he was fairly certain he’d gone to bed. Like any normal day. He’d returned from his routine shift at the Fatui headquarters and gone back to his studio apartment to sleep. The first thing his slightly dumbfound mind managed to conjure up was that he’d been isekai’d, but it was thought with a mental laugh and a ‘yeah, sure’ followed right after.
Meaning the only feasible conclusion was that he was still asleep, and this was all a dream.-----------
Or, Ajax wakes up somewhere that looks suspiciously similar to Liyue, from Genshin Impact, the videogame; and resolves to change history.

Summary
"Welcome to a new user experience! You have triggered this interface with the keywords, ‘Stupid game! Stupid devs! I want my f*****g money back!’ You are now bound to the character Tartaglia, the Eleventh Harbinger of the Fatui, codename: Childe! We hope you have an enjoyable user experience and we welcome you once again to Genshin Impact 2.0!”
Those are some of the first words Ajax, starving college student extraordinaire, has the misfortune of hearing upon waking up in a brave new world from what he's fairly sure is a very fatal accident involving water and a shit ton of electricity.
Okay, so he's not dead. That's good. But what's this about him being stuck playing the character Tartaglia? Tartaglia, as in the no-good, one-dimensional, cartoonish villain who met his untimely, gruesome death in the first act of the original game?
Forget this. Like hell Ajax is going to share that fate.
And so begins one man's journey to save himself from his awful destiny.

Summary
It’s been two months since the storm, and Childe hasn’t seen Zhongli not even once, not since that fateful meeting with the Signora where the truth is finally unveiled.
And what a fun little kick to the gut that is, the realization that not only had he been played by all sides, but he's also being tossed aside like trash now that his use had run its course.
It’s not that Childe doesn’t get it. He’s a Harbinger. He knows first-hand what it means to do his duty, to put the mission first and his personal feelings far, far away, preferably locked up in a box, where it wouldn’t interfere with his job. He knows what it’s like working with vipers, to scheme and plot and lie in wait for the opportune moment to stab his opponent in the back.
But this time, this time Childe can’t help but feel a little (a lot) gutted.
Stupid. He’s gotten himself stupidly attached.
--
A story about Childe trying to move on after the events of 1.1 Update, but some of his actions have consequences, and those consequences have followed him back to Snezhnaya.NOTE: THIS FIC WAS DRAFTED BEFORE 1.1 UPDATE CAME OUT. MIND THE CANON-DIVERGENT TAG FOR THIS REASON.

Summary
Meryl Stryfe and Milly Thompson are employees of the Bernardelli Insurance Society, tasked with the locating of the Humanoid Typhoon; infamous as a man of many mysteries and allegedly responsible for the destruction of the third city of July.
Rumors and sightings of the man are already inconsistent enough as is, and now the ladies are hearing claims that Vash the Stampede is as monstrous as his actions; that he's a giant nearly twelve stories high. As preposterous as that may seem, it may very easily explain how one man could be capable of such a track record of destruction and devastation...Bookmarked by Magicadula

Little Lights in a Giant's Shadow by anonymousandembarrassed

Summary
Being the legendary desert giant of Gunsmoke meant that there were many things Vash would never get to experience. The situation of having a cat on your lap and being rendered completely immobile was not something he ever thought he would get to take part in; least of all with his little human partners playing the role of the cat.
AKA Vash being bigger means he has even more room in his heart to love his friends and he might just have to start sobbing uncontrollably about it.

Summary
The orphanage looms at his back. It looks empty—abandoned. He wonders idly how long he's been out of commission for. The longest, before this, was four months—but that had been under the watchful Eye of Michael, not left to rot in a pit of his own making.
I should be dead, he thinks. Maybe I was dead.
There's a stillness in the air that feels unfamiliar, unnerving. Not like high noon before a gunfight but rather, the tense silence that comes after one, in the dusk.
Something happened.

Summary
After July, Wolfwood is left with nothing to his name but a piece of paper and a heavy cross to bear, so he returns to the only roots he ever had to try his hand at healing. It's a difficult process, but soon enough he'll discover that there's a damn good reason he can't let go.
A voice calls from the east. He just needs to hear it.
(A story about grief, healing, love, and one funny little housecat.)

Summary
(Set after Trigun: Badlands Rumble. Spoilers for Trigun Maximum)
Riding on adrenaline after the Gasback incident and emotional about seeing Vash again, Wolfwood confronts him back at his hotel room.
His forehead was hot against Vash’s soft red leather jacket. “Vash, don’t… stop putting the whole world before yourself.” As if he could ever be as selfish as Nicholas was.
He lifted his head slowly and stepped further away, “I haven’t even known you that long. What do I care?” He laughed and it had no humour in it. “Why do I care, huh?”
