Summary
It takes the same kind of element to trigger a chain reaction with an area blast effect.
Don't get too close.

Summary
There were few things in this life that made it worth living, especially when the world was trying to kill itself. A good bow, a full quiver, a sharp spear--some truly stupid enemies that would die easily never hurt, too.
But, what truly made life worth it? Family. Friends. People to trust and depend on.
Now, if only Aloy could just keep them together and alive, that would be great.

Summary
“It’s you!” Ared answered happily. “You are Elisabet. My co-architect. The one for whom I am intended.”
Aloy froze, her blood running cold at the name ‘Elisabet’ leaving his mouth so casually. [...]
“Tate?” she whispered, the name sour in her mouth. “Travis Tate? You’re… a clone of the programmer for HADES?”

Six months after the defeat of the Zeniths, HEPHAESTUS is still nowhere to be found, and its absence has started to cause more problems than its presence ever did. Meanwhile, in the months since losing HEPHAESTUS into the Cauldron network, Aloy has become all but consumed with her attempts to find it, to the point of losing track of everything else important to her. Knowing NEMESIS is still on its way to earth, Aloy soon finds herself juggling HEPHAESTUS’ disappearance with preparation for the arrival of the malicious AI—but when a new, even more complicated threat makes itself known, she realizes the things she prepared for are only the tip of the iceberg.
A post-HFW slowburn Aloy/Kotallo friends-to-lovers fic with heavy horror/action elements and myriad original worldbuilding.

Summary
When Kotallo lost his arm, it was more than just a limb that he had lost. It was his prowess with a bow. It was his utility as a Marshal. His arm was gone, his life a ruin, and nothing would ever be the same.
It did not occur to him that this could be a good thing.
It did not occur to him that he could find new purpose in his life. It did not occur to him that an outlander with hair like blood and a spirit as fierce as blazefire would help him find that purpose.
With Aloy as his witness, Kotallo would find himself again, and nothing would ever be the same.
********************
In other words: a wish fulfillment fic where Aloy and Kotallo fall in love over the course of the game. Canon scenes and dialogue blended and padded out with introspection, cozy conversations, smut, and all the GAIA Gang bonding that we deserved. ❤Series

Summary
A self indulgent soul mate story where you can speak to each other through drawings on your skin. Somehow this increased ability to talk doesn't help Aloy and Kotallo from frequent miscommunications.

Summary
Kotallo is hurting, inside and out, when he is sent by his chief to Stone Crest on escort duty for a futile mission. He's heard rumours about the Champion back at the Grove - how she saved the city of Meridian before venturing West and defeating Regalla's champion in single combat, so he expects a larger-than-life brute of a warrior. Instead he finds a woman who is curious, fierce, compassionate, more anvil-headed than any Oseram, and, to his surprise, beautiful.
Just another 'Kotallo and Aloy fall in love within the frame of the game' story, told through the eyes of a man who thinks he has little left to live for, and a woman who faces an impossible task alone. Except that she's not alone at all.

Summary
"Kairos" is Greek for "a time when conditions are right for the accomplishment of a crucial action : the opportune and decisive moment."
That 70+ page Aloy/Kotallo fic you may have heard rumors about. New chapters every Friday until it's done. It gets pretty angsty, and there's some H/C down the line. Check out my Tumblr (same username) for the chapter graphics as well.
