Alex Rider 2024 by DarlingNikki for greenkite (shirohyasha) (E, 14K)
Time moves on and Alex is no longer a scared fourteen year old swimming completely out of his depth. Almost twenty-five years have passed and the world is a completely different place with changes he’d thought were pure sci-fi are just boring reality now.
Or Alternatively, Alex gets his retirement from MI6, but too bad they think he's a disposable pawn that's the prefect guinea pig for testing some dodgy new tech, and ends up with a very familiar ghost living under his skin.
A Cyberpunk 2077 inspired AU/fusion that's also a prequel for the game technically, but 100% blind readable.
tissue culture by greenkite (shirohyasha) for Polarnacht (n/r, 3,5K)

Like A Delicate, Dangerous Desire by turtle_snail for Sigma (E, 5k)
There was something so serene to look down at Alex like this, and the wide expression of uncertainties etched on Alex’s face. It was akin to ambrosia. A delicate desire that only Yassen could enjoy.
“Maybe I should teach you a lesson… about what happens to apprentices who misbehave.”
Alex didn’t respond, instead whatever fear was present in Alex’s eyes morphed into determination. It was a look that was so characteristically Alex.
Who By Brave Assent by TheOtherBlue for Rirren (E, 6,5k)
