Hiiiii lovely people, I'm Ghost.
I'm a little new here, but in the spirit of the cold season vibes I wanted to share a fic I've been working on in case anyone was looking for a cozy/slow read that will speed up (and get a little dark) later on.
I'll post chapters on here gradually over time if there's interest, but here's everything thats published as of right now:
As Above, So Below / Viktor x Reader / Arcane Fanfic (82,863 words) by that_salty_ghost
1. Tinkerer | 2. Coffee Talk | 3. Lost & Found | 4. R&R | 5. Exceptionally Okay | 6. Worth It | 7. Guilty Pleasures | 8. Nightcap | 9. Dickwagons | 10. Absolutely [18+] | 11. Wake Up Call | 12. Daddy Issues | 13. Downtime | 14. Puff, Puff, Pass | 15. The Proust Effect | 16. Past Lives | 17. Shameful Company | 18. Picked Apart | 19. Mind the Gap | 20. The Fish & The Fence | 21.

First Aid | 29. Exceptions
It's Viktor/Male Reader, so if that's not your jive no worries. Spoilers: it gets a little gay. (And super gay in chpt 10 š)
Anyway.
Quick summary: After your parents are killed in a raid by the enforcers, you make your living by working as a barista and bartender along with some shady side hustles as Vander starts to prepare for an uprising. Viktor enters your chaotic life with a calm confidence that you're immediately drawn to. You find yourself spending more and more time with him as he preps for his admission into the Academy, but when the time comes for you to join the rebellion, your life takes an unexpected turn that neither of you are prepared for.
About the Reader [Y/n]: He/him pronouns, bi, vers, witty and still figuring life out even though he had to grow up relatively quickly. This is definitely a longer read, so if you're not into slow burns/gradual build up/etc., I'll be writing drabbles/one-shots later once I've developed a style that would fit that.
Also just a heads up: [Y/n] has a backstory/depth/history that impacts your interactions with Viktor as well as other characters. There's some OC tendencies in there, but this is in 2nd person POV so I'm not sure what to call it but just want to be transparent on that too. The only physical traits mentioned is that you have some muscles (bc plot/war/carrying kegs/etc.) and you're a smidge shorter than Viktor in the beginning (newbie mistake, you're also 18 at that time so plenty of time to grow if you're taller ayeee)
Here's all the places you can find the fic right now: š Ao3 | Wattpad | Tumblr š

Not done reading this version of Soldier Boy x Reader? Well, there's more to their story.
All of these stories follow the main series above and are listed in chronological reading order (not the order I wrote them in, but how they should be read).
(**Notes 18+ only and/or smut)
In the Dark You and Ben have tackled the insurmountable together, but no one said the recovery would be easy.
Checkerboard** Youāre not a supe. Youāre breakable. Soldier Boy sometimes forgets that.
Wanderlust** Your wandering hands are keeping Ben up at night.
A Simple Touch Annie still has reservations about Ben, and you dating him for that matterā¦until she sees it.
Love Actually** - [MINI SERIES] Ben gets in late on Christmas Eve with a Grinch-like attitude, but youāre determined to force some holiday cheer into his system. At least, you hope you can, before he meets the rest of your dysfunctional family on Christmas Day.
Series Complete!
Wake Me Up** - [MINI SERIES] A few weeks after you and Ben celebrate your first Christmas together, he is returning from another mission with the Supe Affairs team. When he discovers that youāve been taken, heāll do whatever it takes to find you. And then, to help you heal.
Series Complete!
Strong As Blood** After you accidentally break through a solid wood table, you know thereās something wrong with you. You begin to have your suspicions, but can you keep it from Ben long enough to find out?Ā
(In other words: This is the story of how you and Ben discover that youāre pregnant.)
Part 1 || Part 2 - Complete
Sleigh Ride Yet again, you convince Ben to indulge you in a new Christmas tradition.
Until Morning A quiet moment between you, Ben, and your newborn daughter.
This One's For You Late one night, finding no other recourse, Ben sings to his infant daughter to help her sleep.
Lesson Learned** Thereās only so much teasing Ben is willing to take. He has no choice but to punish you. (Sequel to This One's For You)
Green** Ben spends the day alone with his daughter, to varying degrees of success. When you get home, it prompts a serious conversation.
Calculated Risks You and Ben argue about your commitment to being a working mom. When a rogue supe gets loose at Supe Affairs, mayhem ensues, putting not only your life at risk, but your daughterās as well.
Getting jealous.** š Ben needs new clothes, but the shop girls think your boyfriend is fair game.
Benās reaction to his girlfriend on her period.ā£ļø How he takes care of you.
Ben loses you.Ā š Includes a ātwistā endingā¦
Talk to MeĀ š In the wake of his vivid nightmare, you confront Ben about his fears and get him to open up. [Sequel toĀ āBen loses you.ā]
Inspiration behind the Part 17 plot twist. It has to do with my love of Smallville. (Spoilers for BMD Part 17.)
How many kids would you and Ben have? The answer is...
Ben's reaction to his daughter Lila's first crush (vs. his son's). The double standard here is ridiculous!
How Ben would react when Lila gets a boyfriend (or girlfriend). Dad!Ben is pretty much what you'd expect...
How Ben reacts when his daughter (Lila) is dating an asshole. He sees an unfortunately "kindred" spirit.
What if Lila caught Ben on a bad day? Featuring reactions from young!Lila and teen!Lila.
What (BMD) Soldier Boy/Ben Would Say to His Younger Self Ben has the opportunity to meet his counterpart from the 1980s. What advice would he offer?
Imagine Soldier Boy (Ben) "Sliding Up" to You in the Club Despite what you might think, he's got moves...

"But you move me, baby. All my livin time..."
"A fight for love and glory, a case of do or die..."

In which Sukuna is a reluctant wingman and regrets his life decisions deeply due to one hopeless brat's exasperating pining. AKA a fic in which Sukuna hates slow burn. And existence itself.
Toji rolled his eyes. "Just tell him how you feel, I didn't raise a coward." "You didn't raise me," Megumi reminded him. Megumi was being haunted. Not by the ghosts of his past but an actual ghost. The spirit of his deceased father. Megumi gets a wingman and a father in one go.
Even though he knows that he isnāt entitled to every detail in Itadoriās life, it irks him to think there is someone that he knows absolutely nothing about. Especially someone, he realizes with a sinking feeling, that is exactly Itadoriās type. What was it he had said to Todo?Ā Tall, dark hair, kind of badass.Ā In other words, exactly like the tall, dark-haired, intimidating looking man who just walked out of Itadoriās dorm room.
5 times Yuuji and Fushiguro's dates go other than planned, and one time where they finally get it right
Yuujiās brain feels like itās sizzled up and died, but Megumiās lips are a centimetre away from his own and maybe this isnāt so confusing anymore, because heās closing his eyes and leaning in too, andā āWait, are you guys fucking gay?ā Sukuna.Ā Fuck,Ā heād forgotten about him.
To which Megumi comes home with a ring pop on his finger and causes Gojo to become the manchild he is.
āYou want to ruin him," Sukuna says. Maybe Sukuna isnāt wrong about that, Fushiguro thinks in a daze. Itadoriās heart is too heavy and too precious. Itās a burden that shouldnāt be given to anyone else. Because even Itadori himself canāt take care of it, canāt hold onto it for the life of him because heād rather become the vessel to the most wretched of all curses just to help two people heās only known for a few monthsāto help Fushiguro, who heād only met that night. (I can keep it. Fushiguroās hands move. I can hold onto it, if you want.) Orā Some dreams start to keep Fushiguro up at night, and the cure to stopping them might be closer than he thinks.
He aches for that closeness, that touch, but he canāt let himself lean forward and take it. Instead, he presses his thigh closer to Yuujiās, letting the warmth sink into his skin five times megumi touched yuuji
Seeing Yuuji die before had left Megumi needing to feel his heartbeat to know he's alive. It's how he finds peace.
Megumi, a sharp-witted detective, wielded intellect as his weapon and compassion as his shield. With his own sense of justice, he knew not the depths of love until he crossed paths with Yuuji, a radiant soul shining amidst the grey shadows of existence. Fate weaved their destinies together, connecting their hearts with a celestial thread of unyielding devotion. CW: This has a sad ending
Itās in the middle of scanning the last bottle of green tea that Itadori properly looks up. Eye contact with him is a physical, unexpected shock, a crunch of imaginary static snapping through Megumi and leaving his hands twitching at his sides. "Hey." Itadori blinks, wide and earnest. "Do I know you from somewhere?" The tea sloshes backwards in the bottle heās holding. Megumi focuses on this until his vision steadies. "No," he says. "I donāt think so." In the aftermath, Itadori loses his memories instead of his life. Megumi grieves nonetheless. CW: This also has a sad ending (yeah yeah I love angst)
Megumi is sent on a mission to retrieve Ryomen Sukuna's finger from a high school, which should have been an easy mission. But with his strange dreams intensifying and becoming more vivid, he has a hard time sleeping. It should be an easy mission. He is just not sure why the boy who found the finger seems so familiar. Ps: Everyday I wait for it to update like how a dog waits for his owner to come home, no warnings just wanted to let you know this fic is one of my top faves
Yuuji is a famous Twitch streamer who does streams from his college dorm. Among his fanbase, his huge crush on a random book reviewer on youtube has become a running joke. The fanbase decides to make it their mission to discover who Yuuji's mystery crush is. Megumi has a very small book reviewing channel on Youtube he started in high school. He doesn't even know what Twitch is, but Nobara keeps insisting he needs to help her find this random Twitch Streamer's secret crush. Her reasoning: the secret crush does youtube and reviews books.
I love this man so much šš
I just love soft!Sanemiā¦This wonāt fit into the fic Iām writing but I think itās cute so I figured Iād share it anyway <3
Sanemi who is so touch-starved that he will absolutely melt under your hands when you run your fingers through his hair. After the first brush of your fingertips all his hesitation is gone and he is laying boneless with his head in your lap, eyes closed, just totally surrendered to your touch.
Keep reading
Saving these to read at some point š

*cracks knuckles* I GOTCHU ANON this is my time to shine
If anyone wants to reply with their own pls do!
(These are in no particular order)
i left my heart in the mountains (right next to yours)
I'm going to want you 'til the stars evaporate
and here i stand (in the dirt with you)
These are all by Santihan and ugghh these were the fics that pulled me back from my near decade-long ghostroach obsession sabbatical. Well-written, emotional, they are amazing, my favs, I will rec these til I die (the first two are painful :'))
Things That Burn by abel_obel
Such a good one, I always go back to this when I'm in a ghostroach mood. Good ol' classic person A gets injured and person B freaks out
Roach Wouldn't Really Do It...
Exhaustion's a Funny Thing
Both by tinyduckies! Def read the TWs for the first one, but arghhh, I go back to these ones a lot!. I really like how the first one's more realistic/gritty when it comes to the aftermath of surviving Loose Ends
Second one's just a lovely depiction of Ghost and Roach's dynamic. Loved the banter and the second chapter ends real sweetly :)
The Barracks: Part 2
Ulterior Motives
Both by doberman, these two are much longer fics (which ghostroach is in desperate need of) and are such interesting reads!!
The first one is an AU that takes place in a pub with Ghost being his repressed, unhealthy self, and Roach coming in as the new co-worker to sweep him off his feet lol
The second one is ongoing and takes place slightly after MWII with Ghost meeting Roach outside of deployment
Sovereign by Applescone
God, this one really puts me in an introspective mood. It's so well-written and just feels so grounded and human. Takes place years after Loose Ends, with Ghost and Roach rekindling their relationship whilst dealing with the complications of Shepherd's betrayal and death
ęē»ä½ ę©åØä½ åŗēåå¤å¹“ēäøäøŖåęēå°ēäøęµé»ē«ē°ēč®°åæ by Alex_Upshur
Ok I know this is in Chinese, but just use a translator like I did and yeah, while it won't be as accurate as the author wrote it, it's still a really lovely fic and i adore it :') A lil bittersweet look into the 141's lives and sweet moments with Ghost and Roach <3
Of Doubts and Dreams (Retold)
The Hook Up
All written by Call_Of_Booty, an og ghostroach author from wayyy back during the og trilogy (and ff.net) days. The first one's a rewrite of one of their old fics and it focuses on Roach and Ghost's dynamic up until the night before Loose Ends.
Second one's about Roach deciding to leave the SAS whilst he and Ghost have complicated feelings for eachother due to past hookups. Both great reads!
Distance Makes the Heart Pissed Off by krwaken

You'll Get Sick Anyways by ghostslefttit
Very short, but very cute lil fic with Ghost taking care of a sick Roach :))
If We Crash (I Hope We Do) by mintyiecat
Man I can't even begin to describe how much I love this one. Portrays Ghost and Roach's relationship post-loose ends where Roach is now a civilian. Loved how the author depicted their relationship as not flawless. Felt very human and raw. Very sweet ending :)
Something in the Orange by fixfoxnox
Y'all been knew this would be on here lol
Follows Roach's pov where he's been reincarnated into the reboot timeline with all his memories from his old life and him trying to make his way back to Ghost. This one makes me sad as hell. Has all the feels :')
Something in the Orange by insomniamemoirs & RandomWordsAndStormyDays
Funny how my top two GSR fics are named the same thing, but hey, they're both amazing. I was apprehensive because of the "calling Soap Roach by accident" trope, however they really diverted my expectations and made these three really feel like equals in a relationship. Really love how they made sure to establish a strong dynamic between Soap and Roach instead of pitting them against each other. And Roach isn't just some 2D character here, he's very nuanced and I love it!
Freezing Waters by AmphibianEft
Sweet fic of Roach getting injured and Soap and Ghost freaking out and taking care of him
Stress Relief by Anonymous
Just Soap and Ghost taking care of Roach after Hornet's Nest (smut) :)

Just 3.5k words of Roach wanting to kiss his captain :)
fall for me by punishervest
Just a sweet moment between 09 Soap and Roach with Soap reminiscing on his past with Price but also considering how he wants something more with Roach <3
She (Means Everything To Me) by mylareading
Just 1.9k words of Soap being down bad for Roach (super sweet)
I Really Like The Way You Stare At Me by turqu0ise
The fic that introduced me to roanig <3 Just a cute fic focusing on the development of their relationship
Subatomic by tinyduckies
Another nice fic focused on the development of their relationship. Loved the interactions they had in this :)
These are the ones I have so far! I'm sure later on I can add to the list, and if anyone wants to reply with their own feel free :)
I've also been made aware there are Keegan/Roach fics, but I haven't gotten around to reading them yet, but def check out their tag anon! Hope this was an adequate rec list haha
