Summary
“You don’t know a fucking thing about me.”
“Wrong. Seen your type before. A klepto-punk scrapin’ by on scav hunts and delusions, callin’ it survival until you realize that you don't feel alive 'less you got iron in your hand and blood on your face.”
“What about you? Couldn’t even finish the revolution you started, leavin’ everyone else to pick up the pieces after you blew ‘Saka Tower to kingdom fuckin’ come.”
She points to a nearby barricade covered in graffiti, indicating the question scrawled in heavily stylized letters: Where’s Johnny?
“You think you died a legend? That your name is revered? Well, it ain’t. You’re the patron saint of self-destruction - a codeword us street-kids use to signal impending STUPIDITY.”
*****
When Johnny ends up in the head of a street kid from Heywood, he isn't sure what to make of her. She fights fate with a sharp tongue and even sharper steel but on the streets of Night City, even the strong don't always survive.
Told from Johnny's POV, this story takes place during the game but diverges from cannon quite a bit because this V is not a blank slate for the player to inhabit - she's an enigma wrapped in razorwire.

Summary
2 and a half years after V had given her life for his, an exhausted and mourning Johnny was finally able to extract V’s engram from cyberspace. And with the reluctant help of Rogue, her runner Nix and some other figures of their pasts, Johnny was able to find the actual location of his cryo-vac’d body.
With V back, Johnny now must confront his complicated feelings for her. But admitting his feelings for her is so much harder when he is constantly bombarded with guilt and self-doubt. V was back, he’s meant to be relieved –he is! But he’d been most comfortable within her mind and her in his. Now they’re mostly separated the uncertainty has him spiral through his own cracked mind as he slips back into old habits.
And for V, returning to the world of the living brings its own disquiet. The city has moved on; why can’t she? Haunted by fragments of Johnny left behind by the relic, she struggles with who she has become. Is this who she always was, or are pieces of herself gone, replaced by remnants of him? As they navigate a city that’s as unforgiving as ever, V and Johnny must each grapple with what they’ve gained, what they’ve lost, and whether they can be whole – together, or apart.
