Summary
One cannot define grief as a solid entity; It shifts and changes like the tide, rising and falling, waxing and waning. Its unexpectedness rips off a layer of one's life like a band-aid, and an exposed underbelly is never pretty. J is no exception.

Micro updates with syntax fixes, illustrations for chapter 6 are up :)

Bookmarker's Notes
This was an amazing read from start to finish and perfectly captures J's character and the post-canon grief she'd be facing, singlehandedly managed to change my opinion on J from 'Lukewarm' to 'Holy hell I never realised you could approach J's character from that level!'

Courtship Rituals of a Disassembly Drone by WolfHeart87
Fandoms: Murder Drones (Web Series)
06 Feb 2024
Tags
Summary
Being friends with a Disassembly Drone came with it's quirks, Uzi Doorman had learned that rather quickly. They were quirks she could handle, annoying sometimes but also entertaining. It was just part of what made N so endearing to her. He was basically a golden retriever, in metaphorical purity and actual physical action. From his constantly wagging tail to his persistently happy demeanor. That didn't mean it wasn't exhausting, or confusing.
Like right now. With his weird display of shiny things and constant hopping.
What was with him?
Shorter Summary: N acts like a bird to try and win over Uzi. It does not go well.
Now with more chapters!

Summary
Z, a burned-out retail employee with a chip on her shoulder, and Noctis, an ambitious inventor with something to prove walk into a landing pod...
A few Swap AUs are already floating around, though the ratio of art/stories is skewed significantly in favor of the former. As someone who finds the idea irresistibly adorable, I figured it was only right to make Liam proud and use my power as a writer as irresponsibly as possible.
This story aims to balance canon events with my interpretation of events between episodes. Expect cannon to be altered or disregarded in some places, though I aim to stay as close to the show's original image as possible without simply retreading old ground.

Summary
"As the air to a bird or the sea to a fish, so is contempt, to the contemptible." Vergil inwardly thought, looking up at the towering metal monuments to humanities opulence and sin.
Vergil is suddenly thrown from his universe into another after a mishap with a Qliphoth root and a old enemy. The new dimension he finds himself in is one very similar, and yet so different. In this dystopian world, humanity has clawed themselves to the very pinnacle of technology, and yet finds their feet fully cemented in the trash heap that is their hubris. There is only one thing that the megacorporations of this world understand; power. And power is something that Vergil is intimately aware of.
Triple crossover with Devil May Cry, Cyberpunk Edgerunners and Cyberpunk 2077.

Summary
V should be dead, but she's not. After being turned into an Engram by Alt, she was thrust back in time by a quantum entanglement experiment, waking up in 2074.
David Martinez is a boy down on his luck. His mom is dead, his school bullies are assholes, and he's out of money, out of time, and out of options- the best way to get money in Night City is to be an Edgerunner, after all, and you can't make it as an Edgerunner without chrome.
Wait- who's that crazy lady pointing a gun at Doc?
Oh shit.
(Yes, every chapter title is a song. No, they don't actually have any bearing on the plot, they're just part of my cyberpunk playlist)

Methane Breathing Devil by That_guy_who_writes

Summary
For the entirety of the Covenant’s existence, the Unggoy have been at the bottom of the hierarchy. They were nothing more but cannon fodder even after their ferocious rebellion. Many were craven, frail, and lacked the discipline and bravery to rise above their peers. Few had the resolve and ambition to become mighty soldiers, let alone leaders.
Mizif despised his kind’s nature the moment he was enlisted into the Covenant. The idea of being nothing but cannon fodder made his skin crawl with disgust. He refused to end up as another slaughtered Grunt on the battlefield
His desire to survive the brutal Human-Covenant War by any means will give birth to the most ruthless and horrifically cunning Grunt that anyone has ever seen. Humans? Parasites? Heretics? It mattered little. He would live, not for some “Great Journey”, but for himself. Woe be upon any that stand in his way.

Wait, how does he even know these stories?
Wait, what do you MEAN he's a human?!

Summary
When the Mar's outpost went silent, the reservoir of knowledge left for the denizens of Earth to one day find, humanity had barely begun the infancy of their civilization.
But their lives would be cut so tragically short before they could find what had been left there...
Though they have perished, their works, their creations, and perhaps even more; have lived on after them. And far more than arts of ancient science, what now lay before them was a future among the stars, delayed but not abandoned.

Summary
The Pale King reconsiders his plan to stop the Radiance after a particularly worrisome vision. He decides on a change of plans that would surely stop the Higher Being's advance, though it might create another enemy entirely. Thankfully, the Nightmare Heart's vessel is understanding of his situation, and so he accepts his deal. Now, the Pale King is again forced to commit despicable acts, even worse than the killing of the failed vessels, but there's no cost too great for the survival of his eternal Kingdom.
