Summary
“Listen, you don’t have to spell it out, okay? I get it. I’m still pissed you cut me, but I get it. I’m not hero material, it was stupid to think I was.”
“Actually, Sonar, I cut you because you are hero material, and I think you have a better chance at going legit by yourself than Coupe does.”
“…Robbo, my man, tell me the truth. Are you high right now?”
Or:
Ever since MechaMan Blue fell out of the sky, there’s been a gaping hole in LA’s indie superhero scene. Nobody’s stepped in to take over his old patrol routes or cover the territory left unprotected by his absence—too intimidated by the legacy to attempt to fill his shoes, perhaps.
Robert has an idea about who might be able to fill them.

Summary
So, like, Victor isn’t one of those “social justice warrior” types—doesn’t exactly fit his aesthetic—but some things are just facts, man. And the fact is, hybrids get kind of a rough deal overall.
As far as he sees it, the current meta on making it through life as a hybrid has just three options:
First option is to fit in. Do whatever you gotta do, cut whatever you gotta cut in order to be small enough, dumb enough, inoffensive enough—close enough to the median statistic on every single parameter that all the things that make you an outlier can be politely pasted over or ignored by the normies.
Obviously, Victor did not take this option.

Summary
If you asked Han Solo what this tale is about, he would say it is the story of how he, a handsome and courageous spacer captain, became the favorite acolyte of a terrifying eldritch void deity, joined the Rebel Alliance, and helped save the galaxy from an evil space wizard.
If you asked said eldritch deity, currently going by the name Firmus Piett, he would say that "favorite" is a bit of a stretch.
(AKA: What if my favorite Imps were actually old gods?)

Summary
In which Alastor realizes he committed a bit too hard to the whole found-family gag, gets fucked up by the First Douchebag, and tries to pretend everything is fine. Shockingly, Charlie is not oblivious. Even more shockingly, the person she goes to for help is Vox.
This turns out to be a case of using the wrong equation but still getting the correct answer.
(Also known as the one where Al & Vox used to bait angels, until they didn't.)

Summary
In most universes where this story plays out, one of the first people Vox meets upon falling to Hell is a charming, bloodthirsty cannibal overlord who eventually steals his heart.
Usually, that overlord is Alastor.
This time, it's Rosie.

Summary
The first thing you had to remember about Jewel Casino was that you couldn't buy chips with money. It wasn't that kind of casino. You couldn't gamble your soul either. The casino's owner, the enigmatic and unnerving Opal Nox, was not interested in souls. Then what were you supposed to bet, you ask? The color of your eyes. All your memories before you were three years old. The second best day of your life. Anything you liked really. When you cashed out at the end of the night, you could buy those things back ...or you could buy other things.
The second thing you had to remember was deceptively simple: the House always wins.

Summary
Gregory wants to rescue the possessed animatronics, but Glitchtrap holds all the cards. All except for two: a protective Freddy Fazbear, and a ride or die Daycare Attendant. The clock is ticking, but this time six am doesn't guarantee a happy ending.
Featuring a surprisingly cunning Sun, an unsurprisingly feral Moon, and a Freddy Fazbear working out his existential crisis of sentience by sucker-punching anyone who looks at Gregory sideways.
Split POV: Sun, Moon, Freddy, Gregory.

On the Nature of Feeling by Veevwjw123
Fandoms: Slay the Spire (Video Game), Slay the Spire 2
03 Apr 2026
Tags
Summary
Something has reminded the Necrobinder of everything that she lost.
That's not the important part. The important part here is that the Regent has noticed, and he's curious. Starris, after all, is a planet that has done away with such tragedies as "needless suffering" and "sudden loss".
So, while the rest of the party are out doing whatever it is they do once the fire goes up, he does as anyone with a question would do. He asks it.

Repose Is Not Granted, It Is Owed by Veevwjw123

Summary
The party, exhausted from a slog through the damp grime of the Spire's sewers, is offered an opportunity by the Melting Dragon—to take whatever time they need to rest and recuperate in his domain before they continue their ascent.
They take the offer, of course, and pile themselves together along with the various soft things strewn about the place for a much-needed nap. The Ironclad (despite where he finds himself, in all this) doesn't follow their example.
At least, not immediately.

Summary
Sometimes you face a boss, and your deck just isn't built quite right.
Sometimes death is certain, but slower to descend than would be merciful.
Sometimes it can be spurred, if you ask.

Leaves Me With a Violent Hunger by YeahAlrightDude

Summary
The ironclad re-learns how to work with others, and the regent finds a friend who's sturdy, good at following instructions, and probably doesn't even know what the top 100 chart IS. Frankly, this architect guy doesn't stand a chance.
(A mostly canon-compliant fic where two spire climbers make an uneasy alliance and discover, amidst all the absurdity and violence, they actually get along *quite well*)
