    Summary

    During the battle at the Department of Mysteries, Harry falls through the Veil and into a mirror world that shouldn't exist, where Neville wears the scar, his parents stand strong and unbroken, and the Malfoys, of all people, sit closest at their table. History runs backward, and Harry's soul is fractured—claimed by something that calls itself a god.

    Summary

    NB: I have crossposted this story to Royalroad under the title System Override.

     

     

    A forced experimental drug treatment at an early age has saddled David with an immense burden.

    His mother’s insistence on his current lifepath as a corpo has done much the same.

    David is a speeding ball of fire hurtling towards an unknown destination, and his mother’s death has left him adrift and unsure of his direction.

    So he does what any teenager with no more fucks left to give does—he chips in some mil-spec chrome and looks for a quick way to earn edds, all the while learning to utilize the nanotechnology that had been forced on him as a child—finding out the immense potential within him as a result.

    Corpo or Edgerunner? Why not both? And why not the best of both while we’re fucking at it?

    Top of Arasaka Tower.

    Night City Legend.

     

     

    God.

    Summary

    David had always heard that this city made men into monsters. He didn't think they meant it literally.

    Gloria Martinez had stolen a top-secret sample from the corpse of an AWOL scientist. She had been hunted down and assassinated for it. David should have died with her. He didn't. But that did not mean he came out unscathed. Whatever his mother had stolen had changed him; made him something else.

    He wasn't sure why these people were willing to slaughter his mother over one vial, but he wanted answers. And he had a feeling that whatever had changed him—this "Blacklight"—would give them to him.

    Summary

    We thought ourselves powerful, able to conquer a galaxy with nothing but toys. When we overcame every challenge, breached the space between the galaxies themselves, what use were the words of a race ashamed of their own past? Yet we cannot deny that we were warned, for while a challenge to a human is laughable, a challenge to humanity is a death sentence.
