  1. Summary

    A series of six different takes on Saiki Kuusuke, focusing on his relationship with/misadventures with his brother Kusuo. Each one can be read independently, and there is an overarching story between all of them.

    Here they are (in order of current level of completion):
    Innovative!Kuusuke: complete (may be updated), Amoral!Kuusuke: complete (may be updated), Obsessive!Kuusuke: wip (this one’s gonna be long), Good!Kuusuke: wip (also gonna be long), Sadistic!Kuusuke: wip (going to be shorter), Manipulative!Kuusuke

    That’s in a word; basically I pushed aspects of his character in several different directions. There's a slow plot creep as different versions of Kuusuke begin to communicate.

    Summary

    A sequel to the Herald and Her Knight - be sure to read if you want to know what's going on! A continuation of a (somewhat) grounded interpretation of what might have happened after the Lily/Artifact ending. An ongoing story of survival and travel told mostly through Elster's perspective. Expect liberal introspection, ruminating, consensual hand-holding, violence, death and probably some creative liberties with the lore. Spoilers for the game.

    Now has audiobook chapters being implemented, performed by Captain Kate of the SIGNALIS discord fandub!

    Summary

    In the merchant city of Piltover, if an adventurer gets convicted of a crime, or becomes deep in debt to one of the noble houses, they find themselves an indentured hireling to one of the major guildhouses of the city. Seven years ago, a young adventurer lost her family and gained a curse. A pair of gigantic stone gauntlets that could never be removed, and a debt she had no hope of paying.

    When the cursed fighter is hired out as muscle to a group of young adventurers she never expected that this job would change the path of her life, or that the mysterious noble who travelled with them would make her feel alive for the first time in almost a decade. A noble wielding a bow, with midnight blue hair, and eyes that sparkled like sapphires.

    Summary

    Saiki wakes up with a problem he's never dealt with before. Morning wood. His decision on what to do about it leads to several mortifying interactions he would much rather pretend never happened, and the fallout uncovers burdens he's tried to keep hidden from everyone - including himself.

    Like I mentioned in the tags I'm not completely sure how graphic something needs to be to earn the "graphic depictions of violence" warning (I'm very new to AO3) but towards the end of the story I did write a couple somewhat violent scenes. While I don't think I wrote anything that you couldn't find in a shonen anime, I did show a bit more mature content than the Saiki K. anime ever does and at times I used much more candid language to discuss things. See the notes before each chapter for more specific warnings wherever they apply.
