    Summary

    Having just recently contracted Pararibulitis, Todd Brotzman has been living his life suspended in an unvarying slog of unfulfilling jobs and shallow depression, content to simply keep his head above water and go on surviving...

    Which is made somewhat difficult due to the unexpected and incredibly inconvenient infatuation he develops toward one Dirk Gently, the eccentric and colorful florist who has recently begun working just across the street.

    (alternatively; a simple coffee shop/flower shop au that carried itself just a bit out of hand).

    Summary

    He huffed in disgust. “I solved the bloody case.”
    Todd’s eyes went wide. “You… usually seem a little happier about that, when it happens.”
    ----

    Five months after Bergsberg, the Holistic Detective Agency is finding a groove, and Dirk is maybe—just maybe—starting to trust a good thing to last. But a bout of cat-subsidized calm draws to a sharp close when Dirk and Todd find an impossibly-severed head on a rare day off. Unbeknownst to the Agency, the ever-accumulating Rowdy 3, or even the enthusiastic new leadership at Blackwing, a decades-old play for control is poised to ripple across a fractious, fractured, and fractal Universe. Survival will mean holding true to oneself, even in the face of friends and family—whether given, chosen, or fatalistically entwined.

    A longform take on The Season 3 That Never Was; 3/2025: finally started updating again. We're on the home stretch!

    Summary

    One missing person is so normal it’s almost boring, and two really isn’t much better. A missing house on the other hand, that’s a little more interesting, and when an entire street disappears without a trace, it’s fair to say Dirk is in his element.

    Then Todd goes missing, and he’s so out of his element it threatens to drown him.

    It's all just symptoms of a bigger problem, one Dirk has been trying his hardest to ignore, something broken in the fabric of reality itself that's only growing worse with time. He's not the only one who feels it, but he might be the only one who can fix it. It's a thought that he doesn't even want to consider, let alone have to contend with when he doesn't know what he's doing and he no longer has Todd to help him out.

    But Dirk isn’t ready to give up just yet, no matter what the universe tries to toss his way. Instead he finds allies in unlikely places, friends where he’d assumed enemies, and sets out for the one place on earth he swore he’d never go back to. He’s going to set things right if it kills him, it’s what he was meant to do, he has to fix this.

    And get Todd back in the process. That part is non-negotiable.

    Summary

    This is basically my version of Season 3 so buckle up and get ready for a wild, crazy, holistic ride. And oh, keep an eye out and pay attention to "irrelevant" details...

    They've got a new case. But this time they're finally going through it as Detective and Assis-Boyfriend.

    When Todd's neighbor has a ghost in her apartment Dirk and Todd come to solve the case. Except they solved it much sooner than they anticipated, at least part of it. The universe is just getting started. This is just the tip of the iceberg, actually, no. It's the whole iceberg in the Arctic Ocean.

    Summary

    Post-canon, post-imaginary S3 in which Blackwing is destroyed and everyone can live happily ever after. Written wildly out of order, apologies for any inconsistencies, please feel free to read in whatever order or nonorder you prefer. Dirk and Todd are very much in love and at various stages of admitting it. Alternating fluff and side character angst, anything can be skipped in favor of the other.

    Summary

    "But it's not like, being a bloody werewolf is it!"

    On a seemingly normal case, the agency sends Todd to a museum to follow a lead, where he runs into a rogue god and is bit by none other than Fenrir. The bite, turning him into a werewolf, renders him scared and helpess as he goes through the changes alone. Alone that is, until he once more comes face to face with The Rowdy 3, and realizes that he's really not as alone as he thought.

    Through torture, Norse gods, little kids, Blackwing, and even a possible marriage looming on the horizon, Todd thinks that he might drop dead before all this is over.

    Once lost, some things are gone forever, and Mr. Priest is determined to see to their destruction.

    Summary

    The other Rowdies were covered in streamers too. Vogel had them stuffed in his pockets, and was leaving a literal trail as he got out of the van. Cross had somehow braided them into his hair, and considering that Gripps was holding the color that had been braided in, it was probably him who had done it. Amanda and Martin were the only ones with without some form of party decoration in their hair, and Todd suspected that they had been the ones to set off the explosion of the streamers in the first place. Martin nodded at him.

    “Nice to see 'ya, Pup.”

    Summary

    “Yes. I was on my way to the doughnut shop, when I found myself in a different shop. And I saw this and thought that it would look really nice with your others. I mean, I’ve never really asked, but it seems like you collect them so,” Dirk had pulled out the small rainbow heart and held it out to Todd. Dirk wasn’t sure what he had expected when he handed Todd the toy, certainly not for Todd to jump backwards like Dirk had just shoved a cross in the face of a vampire.

    “Is that a squeaky toy?” Todd shouted. His eyes had gone wide and Dirk realized that Todd’s breathing had increased. How could the toy have given Todd a panic attack?

    “I, well, yes. You collect them don’t you?"

    Dirk Gently dropped out of university to become a Holistic Masseuse. Together with his odd-ball group of friends slash employees, he saves lives and cures obscure diseases, one selective client at a time.
