Limbus Company fanfiction, mostly.

[lcb-oil]

Hello! I'm lcb-oil, and this is my Limbus Company writing project! I picked my name from a random word generator because I am bad at naming things.

I set out on this adventure to embrace my inner cringe and have fun writing the type of Gen Limbus Company stories that I like to read, because we could always use some more.

My goal is to write stories that feel in character and canon plausible, with a little speculation thrown in just for fun.

Relevant trivia about me:

I got into Project Moon by reading TeeQueue's Lobcorp Let's Play

I've finished Library of Ruina, but haven't played Lobcorp for myself yet (I know, I know... Soon maybe.)

I've never really seriously written that much before, so I've got a lot to learn.

DM me to chat about my stories or anything Project Moon. I've gotten lots of fun ideas from chatting with cool people in the PM community!

-----

Also, since someone kindly asked me:

Feel free to create fanart, prequels, sequels, spinoffs, AUs, remixes, theory posts, or absolutely anything else you can imagine based on my stories. Have fun!

(And if you do, maybe send it my way because I'd love to see it?)

A Negative Space

An Archive of Our Own, a project of the Organization for Transformative Works

Her outstretched hand pointed not at a park, nor a cafe, or even an Office — but a little gap between two commercial buildings. His eyes might have passed right over it if he wasn't looking for it. It was more a negative space than a side street. "Wait. You were serious about meeting in an actual dark alley? Lass..." ——— Don Quixote just won't stop talking about her new client. Heathcliff decides to see what's going on for himself.

Okay, I couldn't resist dipping back into this Mirror World just a biiiit more.

Heathcliff will get to the bottom of these strange goings-on! This is the first time I wrote from his (well, third-person) perspective.

This will probably be a three part series now. I have an approximate idea of where to take things, and for sure another part is needed to reach the logical end of this little story arc. (It's just a question of how sad or happy it should be, mwahahah.)

I hope that you enjoy. Let me know what you think! 🎠

I haven't had a lot of time to write lately so please accept this sketch from a while back that may or may not ever become something.

There's this critical lack of Don Quioxte and Dad Quixote doing dad and daughter things together. I want to see them interact more.

There's the fun after you i follow; by afterloves, and a couple other fics on ao3.... but I need more, hahah. Suggest me some! (It doesn't have to be a Don Quioxte lives fix-it, either!)

On a related note, I'm working on writing at least one follow up to Aid Hath Arrived. It might be ready next week.

I hope yall are having a good week!

Aid Hath Arrived

If he refused to awaken, perhaps she would give up. But the woman wasn't stopping. If anything, she started shouting even louder. "The breath of life yet lingers! Canst thou hear my voice?!" The last thing he could have expected to see was a familiar pattern of yellow and tan leather. A pair of dusty, broken-in sneakers with pant legs tucked in to their high tops. ——— Don Quixote is rescued by the last person they could have expected.

I made a plan for a comic I wanted to draw based on this concept, but at present I don't have the skills to execute on it - so written story it is!

(accept this meager offering of one of the better snippets of concept art:)

I just can't stop thinking about them... so I hope you enjoy this cute but bittersweet tale 🎠

(Also, as a random aside, what originally got me into Project Moon was TeeQueue's Let's Play of Lobotomy Corporation. I enjoyed how the LP was so dedicated to not differentiating between Tiphereth and Tiphereth at all. Just mentioning this for no reason.)

[lcb-oil]

what do you think donqui was doing when hong lu flooded the whole temple in canto 8 lol. i mean i was thinking she mightve been dead but it'd be funny to see how she'd react if she was actually present at that moment

I've seen and really enjoyed the "she climbs the other sinners like a cat tree and clings to them for life" approach to this problem but here's an alternative.

I think it would be fun of her IDs have varying levels of obliviousness. Cinq South Section 5 Director feels like it would be especially helpful for this kind of situation, yeah? (I slipped that headcanon into this story very briefly.)

(I sheepishly arrive to answer this like 6 months after it was asked, don't mind me...)

Panel 1 - Bring your father to work day.

(I am currently working on some comic ideas but my process is as slow as humanly possible.)

Happy birthday, o knight of woeful countenance!

Silent Night

"In that moment their camp was the only spot of light that could be seen across the whole plain. In the middle of the battlefield, it shone as bright as a star in the sky." - @lcb-oil in their fic below

GO READ THIS:

An Archive of Our Own, a project of the Organization for Transformative Works

Alr, so here's the alt vers:

Darkmode and light mode

Grey and colour. Personally, I liked the one of the right the most in the process.

The BG for this version was going to be more simplistic, I wanted to focus on the star and in grey scale it worked out rather well

the star glimmer tho was too distracting and clashed with Don Quixote so, there was some editing and BG changes in the final work.

Bonus:

There was a 3rd piece that got accidentally deleted (sob).

This is what remains of it. Just like that hypothetical bridge in the fic. </3

Anyways, once again go read that fic and TY LCB-Oil for their slices of Sancho. Go check out their other works besides that.

[lcb-oil]

I'm beyond speechless.

Thank you so much, this is gorgeous!

A Bridge

https://archiveofourown.org/works/79144331

(Bridges - Part 1/2?)

"And Sancho, be so good as to light a fire for us, won't you?" Don Quixote asked, his excitement bleeding into politeness. "Haaah," she sighed, "for what reason?" "Our camp shan't be complete without it!" ——— A tale about a battle, a campfire, and a bridge.

I actually wanted to write about Gregor, because, you know... but something totally different came out instead. I'll just roll with it.

We don't really know what the Bloodfiend War was like, or maybe even what it was about, but it can be fun to speculate a little. I also just really really need more stories about the kinds of things that Sancho and Don Quixote and the rest were up to.

This one is maybe a little more angsty than my usual, so be forewarned.

Once I get this digital art thing figured out a bit, I have some more silly adventures in store for them.

I hope you will enjoy! 🎠

Sweet tasting dream

Fic art for "Blood of the Covenant" by IdleDancer

[lcb-oil]

It's an incredible fic and this is an incredible art!!!

[lcb-oil]

Shh, they've been working hard. Let them rest.

I'm going to try to draw a comic or two this year. I'm so super slow at digital art, but I'll give it a try.

Speedpaint where I flail all around while trying to understand how to do anything under the cut so that I can hopefully measure my improvement over the year...

Random Canto 9 Thought

After playing Canto 9 I'm beside myself because I have an older fic called "Glimpsing a Certain Mirror World" and now it's going to seem like it's about something really very different than it actually is. That is so funny to me.

Pre-Entry Inspection

An Archive of Our Own, a project of the Organization for Transformative Works

A spotlight revealed a printed sign on the opposite wall, which proclaimed in bold letters: "WELCOME TO Y-CORP! WE WILL BE WITH YOU SHORTLY! (PLEASE NOTE THAT SMOKING OR USE OF UNAUTHORIZED EQUIPMENT WITHIN THE INSPECTION AREA WILL BE NOT TOLERATED UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES!)" ——— Mephistopheles gets chosen for a routine health and safety inspection.

Special Note: This story has no Canto 9 Spoilers / References I wanted a place to explore the information that apparently the City has almost no illnesses. I can't remember where that comes up, but I think it was mentioned at some point in Limbus Company?

For a setting - I needed a Nest that we didn't know anything about yet, and I wanted it to border the Outskirts for the sake of the story. That left me with surprisingly few choices!

...I'll look forward to District 24 being something completely different someday.

Also, somehow this is my first time writing in first person!

I hope that you will enjoy! ⏰🎠
