Stranger in Paradise (last updated November 4, 2025) - ao3 wattpad
A sequel to Velvet Waltz.
1954, 10 years after Operation Kino. A rogue Nazi scientist has vanished in Los Angeles, and the CIA assigns Hans Landa and his wife, Sylvia, to hunt him down. Beneath the blazing sun and glamour of Hollywood, a familiar evil festers…one that will reunite old friends (and old enemies), lure secrets out of the shadows, and force Hans to confront the most formidable monster of all: himself.

I give permission to everyone to make fan art, gif sets, or write your own fics in the Velvet Waltz-verse, including my OCs, it's always an honor and a delight to me!!!! Just please link back to my fic when you share it!
If you genuinely support the Nazi agenda or any far-right ideology this is not a place for you!!!!!
If you have a problem with my usage of Landa, I recommend actually reading the fic (or at least the character analysis linked above) before yelling at me about it. I think I've made my stance pretty clear. If the idea of any kind of romance involving Landa upsets you, this fic is probably not for you, and that's okay! Everything isnt for everyone.
Now more than ever, Nazis are for punching (and don't forget to k-word the Nazi within while you're at it) peace love hearts and marshmallows
