Summary
Trinity doesn’t think the permanent addition of Dr. Al-Hashimi will change much about the ED. That changes after an impromptu offer to watch her kid for the evening. One night leads to another, which bleeds into a familiarity Trinity hadn’t known she was missing.
Or,
Trinity falls hard. She doesn’t know how to navigate it.

Summary
Al-Hashimi laughed again, almost mockingly. The mean lilt of it was so far removed from the emotionless, hyper-professional image Santos had built of Al-Hashimi in her mind that it stunned her into silence.
"I'm afraid you may have misplaced your faith," Al-Hashimi bit back.
Or,
An absurdly canon-compliant attempt to fix the Santos-Langdon-Robby situation and also make Santos and Al-Hashimi kiss about it.

Summary
[Phantom Liberty DLC · IF / Alternate Ending]
Dogtown's nights always smell like rust and rain.
V's only goal was to pull President Myers out of Kurt Hansen's grip. She never expected Johnny Silverhand—the loudmouth rockerboy squatting in her head—to get kicked out... only to be replaced by a soft-spoken, terrifyingly calm netrunner: Songbird. Song So Mi.
Songbird clears the path. V takes the bullets.
From forced brain-roommates to reluctantly sharing a narrow bed.
From wariness and distance to the quiet, terrifying realization on a rain-lashed night that the other woman's breathing feels safer than any neural matrix ever could.
Songbird carries secrets too heavy to speak aloud. V doesn't trust anyone to have her back.
Yet when the Blackwall whispers again and the Relic's countdown ticks louder, they have to choose: keep using each other... or bet everything on the person who once lied to them.
"I'm not letting you carry this alone anymore."
"Try shaking me off? Maybe next lifetime."Bookmarked by grimcytologist

Then why were Alt's words echoing in her stronger than ever? In the city of dreams and empty promises everything comes at a price after all.
And the ghost from the past that has just re-entered her life; Will it be a redemption to a happily ever after or another round of betrayal around the sun?

Summary
“You’re in the basement. Day shift. Come an hour early tomorrow.”
“There’s a basement?”
“Restricted access. Only through the elevator in the security office. Come an hour early.” He continues staring V in the face, expression unchanging. “D’you get that?”
V sets her jaw. “Come an hour early. Got it.”
***
How V always thought the rest of her life would go is drastically different to how it actually does. The Bakkers sell out. Night City falls through. Jackie finds them a gig, somewhere far and with a view, and V meets someone strange, and caged, and new.

Summary
"Carol knows in her heart that she shouldn’t pour herself another drink. The glass is sticky enough to remind her that she’s spilled the amber liquid over her own hands at least three times, and she’s licked them clean as if wasting a single drop of her favourite poison were a crime. If anyone could see her now, they would deem her pathetic, disgusting, hopeless. The fact that she can still feel the stinging shame of knowing that she’s exactly all those things makes her realize that she’s not drunk enough."
[...]
“You’re Carol, right? I’m Zosia. I hear you’ve had quite a day.”
Carol scoffs, trying to conceal the cracks in her voice.
“And it’s not even noon yet.”or
the one where Carol struggles through loss, grief, addiction and trauma, doesn't ask for help, but gets it anyways.

Summary
“We can help,” Zosia said, suddenly right behind her. Carol jumped, then relaxed when she felt Zosia’s hand rest on her back. “Here,” she whispered.
Her fingers were cool as she brushed the hair away from Carol’s face, soothing in their slow pace, their gentle touch. Carol winced as the room began to spin, and Zosia pouted.
“Shh, Carol,” she murmured. Carol whined, but Zosia just guided her by the back while she cooed. “Let us help.”
(carol gets too drunk. zosia takes care of her.)

Summary
“I didn’t keep most of the memories. Other people’s memories. I get flashes of big things, births, deaths. Except about you.”
Carol feels the confusion slip onto her face. Nervousness creeps up her spine again. “Me?”
“I know everything that anybody has ever thought about you, Carol. Every memory. Every feeling. Helen. Your ex-girlfriends. Your dentist. It’s like I have a Carol encyclopedia in my head.”
Carol had thought that she was done experiencing fresh horrors. What a nightmare it is to realize that she is not. “Oh, god.” She says.
“Oh, god,” Zosia agrees.
After they manage to break Zosia free of the hive, Zosia and Carol try to navigate the field of landmines that is their relationship.
