"A Fixers' Job - Chapter 9: Aye Aye, Captain"
Cyberpunk 2077 | Muamar "El Capitán" Reyes/Female V | ~55.1k |
Ch 9/35 | Rated E | AU/Fix-It
Muamar’s night is not going great.
His favourite merc got shot (again), nobody’s taking it seriously, and Hands’ knowing grin is not helping. At all.
Also, he has to wait hours before he can see her. (And no, the drone feed doesn’t count.)
Meanwhile, Padre isn’t half the liar he thinks he is. Lucky for him, V is too knackered to do anything other than sleep tonight.
One last delivery for her favourite fixer before going to bed should be manageable, right? She just has to clear one tiny flight of stairs without breaking her neck. No biggie. Really.
Johnny is just tired of this shit. Because, seriously, who is the gonk who arranged V’s priorities?
Rising legend and most requested merc in all of Night City, V has accepted that the number of months she has left to live can now be counted on one hand. Minus a couple of fingers.
So, she’s got a plan: blaze her way into legend, earn her spot on the Afterlife menu, and go out with a bang. (Figuratively, of course. Jonny actually needs the body burns-free after.)
But Night City’s fixers have other ideas. Because while letting your best merc die is usually bad for business… Letting V go? Turns out that’s just not an option.
Or: V is a stubborn gonk but she is also NC’s fixers' favorite gonk.
What to expect from the fic:
A V that has accepted her fate and is out to live her last few remaining months the way she and Jackie used to dream of.
The collection of people she has amassed in all those month not really agreeing with that sentiment.
Night City's fixers actually showing off their influence (V is like 90% of that influence and she doesn't even know)
El Capitan being a fashion disaster, making jokes, and (slowly) charming his way into V's heart.
Car hijiackings counting as dates
Johnny being a good (sarcastic) bro
Brain Surgeon, World Best
