    Summary

    MIGHT CONTAIN SPOILERS!!!

    NOTE: Everything prior to Chapter 57 was written based on the original game and system. After the 2.0 update, many of the skills and cyberware have changed function and description, so the early chapters will be "out of date".

    Basil just wanted to coast for a month before he had to go back to college. Now, he's thrown into the chaotic world of Cyberpunk 2077. At least the powers that be gave him game-like abilities, which he can use to get rich and thrive. The only problem is that Night City is filled with cyberpsychos (and regular psychos), least of which is a certain Japanese megacorp CEO that's hell bent on starting the next corpo world war. Basil has to work double time to avoid such a disaster if he wants a chance at enjoying his second life.

    From the author:
    There will be sexy time, but the focus will be mainly on the plot. I am NOT planning on Edgerunners having any significance, so I will mostly respect the world as it is at the start of the video game. The setting will be primarily based on 2077, with bits and pieces from the tabletop and other media sprinkled throughout.

    Summary

    Life in Night City is not easy, especially if you are different from other people. Night City was able to tame V somewhat, to limit her urges. But the closer she lets her friends get to her, the closer they get to the truth that V herself can't even stand.
    The truth of being different, being a monster. The truth with which she could put her friends in danger or save them.

    Summary

    A nomad all her life, Valkyrie is stationed in Night City on business. Known for her ability to create deadly bots, it doesn't take long for her to be recognized by those wishing to purchase her merchandise. Though nomad blood will always flow through her veins, she finds herself adjusting to city life better than she could have ever expected.
    However, when a certain fixer offers her what he's calling the 'job of a lifetime', how could she possibly pass that up?

    A retelling of nomad V, in which she's a Shiv from a clan called Overdrive. This fic focuses on relationships with characters, and their effect on Valkyrie moreso than the canon plot. However, The Heist is very much still a mission, except The Relic is destroyed, and Johnny Silverhand never returns.

    Summary

    V found hereself on the roof, with Johnny sitting by her side. Their gaze was fixated on the luminescent glow of the Secure Your Soul advertisement in the towering building before them.

    "So, what will it be?" Johnny's voice broke the silence. After everything they went through, V was able to notice the small jitters of anxiousness as he waited for her decision.

    But V doesn't remember the answer she gave. Instead, she found herself jolted awake in her former apartemnt - her very old apartment, one she had while working for Arasaka's counterintelligence.

    Was it all a dream? A warning? An opportunity?"

    or

    It's sort of "time-travel" I guess. I wanted to play with the idea of fixing shit to get a happier ending for our V.

    *PLEASE READ THE FIRST CHAPTER BEFORE DIVING IN!*
