#jagers

Jäger Search by Para

Most of the detached jägers heard of the Heterodyne's return and came home, but a few are still missing. Agatha learns this, and decides to fix it.

Raised By Jägers by Azzandra

Agatha raised by Jägers AU. That's pretty much it.

Good Old Heterodyne Problem-Solving by ThisCat

One second, the drugs are just kicking in and the girl is starting to spill all her secrets at the dinner table. The next, everything goes so horribly, horribly wrong. (Agatha brings a small death ray to Sturmhalten.)

Mechanisburg in the Sky by Feneris

Coming out of the Madness is a lot like a morning with a hangover. Especially the part where you try to piece together just what exactly you did last night and why you thought it was a good idea. To be fair, Barry Heterodyne had been under a lot of stress the past year. The news that Petrus Teufel and the Black Misit raiders were going around killing entire towns with toxic gas weapons was just the last straw. Memories are rather fuzzy from there. He remembers fixing the castle, going into the Jagerhall and rallying the Jagers, ringing the Doom Bell and summoning the town. He vaguely remembers standing at the castle square and giving a speech. He also remembers “escaping the tyranny of geography” being a major part of that speech. He also remembers assuring the Mechanisburg Chamber of Commerce not to worry, that they would be taking the river with them. (The sequels are also very much recommended fics so read them too)

The Smallest things by NoRegrets30

In which Agatha's tiny helper is present during the Lucrezia fiasco at Sturmhalten and does something to help

Monsters Efficient by escaliers

Dimo, Oggie and Maxim have been searching for their lost masters for fourteen years. They haven't had much luck so far. By now it really feels like they're just picking out places to look out of a hat. Maybe they're owed a diversion. Beetleburg will do.

Grandfather Saturnus AU by bigasswritingmagnet (thekumquat)

In which Teodora bullies Saturnus into not killing their sons, and they both live to raise Agatha while Barry is gone. Raised in Mechanicsburg by a literal saint and an old school Heterodyne, Agatha winds up somewhere in the middle and relatively sane. Y'know. For a Spark.

An Evil Town by Daecon

“A Merry-go-round that can level a small town seems a bit overboard for ‘self defense” “Well…it could be a really evil town.”

Pint Sized Death by Poker

When Barry chooses to escape through a portal, he returns to Europa six years in the future. When he leaves again, he leaves a niece six years too young. Agatha is twelve and really kind of wishing she skipped her tutoring session with Beetle.

The Safety Standards Need Work by icarus_chained

The first time Bill and Barry brought their friend Klaus Wulfenbach home to Mechanicsburg, it ... didn't necessarily go well. On the bright side, though, they didn't kill him! It was a close run thing, but they did not immediately get him killed.

Dimo Becomes a General by adiduck (book_people)

How Dimo became Dimo the Jager and then Dimo the reluctant Jager General. Missing scenes and how the Jagers managed during the time skip.

But I Don't WANT to be a General by bigasswritingmagnet (thekumquat)

The town is unfrozen, and the rest of the generals are back. Dimo would like this to mean HE does not have to be a general any more. It does not.

Prometheus Rising by icarus_chained

"And all too soon he was at the gates of Mechanicsburg. Polite as you please, but here nonetheless." The world is in ruins and Klaus needs an army, he needs information, he needs to know what happened. Even if Bill and Barry are gone now, there's always been one place he could go for that.

Locket by Para

Agatha was a cheerful child. Of course she was. The locket didn’t give her a choice.

Lily by khilari

Agatha and Tarvek have had a fight, their daughter is upset, and it's Gil's turn to be the sensible parent.

The Art of Talking Yourself Into Stupid by ThisCat

Some minions never realize they're minions. Some do, eventually, and they all react in their own way. Either way, Mamma Gkika knows how to deal with wavering hearts.

January In Paris by gisho

Alternate universe. Not long after fourteen-year-old Agatha Clay moves to Paris with her parents, her classmate Colette tries to figure her out - and is hijacked by a natural experiment.

Origin Stories by adiduck (book_people)

What makes somebody a jager is more than just the draught

More Practical by Akallabeth

Of belated marriage proposals and death rays

Gil Builds a Friend by bigasswritingmagnet (thekumquat)

hmm throwback to the Infamous Harem AU! Imagine Agatha is like 10 years old; Gil & Tarvek, 12.

The raid was going great. The jägers were having fun! Agatha had seen some of them tossing around blocks of the dilithium iron ore she wanted! And best of all, her new Superthermic Plasmathrower was working perfectly!

"COWER BEFORE ME!" she cried gleefully from atop her three-headed venemous horse clank, and blasted another house to ashy smithereens. "I AM A HETERODYNE! MWAHA--HEY!"

Her laughter cut off with an indignant cry because someone had just popped up from behind the ashy smithereens and shot a dart of some kind at her.

Before she could turn her Plasmathrower on it, her best friend and chief minion had jumped off his own clank-horse, caught the dart, and chucked it back toward their assailant like a missile.

"Gil, I could've done that!" Agatha complained.

She settled for sending a burst of superheated plasma, 6.66 times hotter than ordinary flame, roaring at the would-be hero.

But even before it reached the spot where he stood, there was nothing there but smoke.

But I think my favorite thing is that the Jӓgers don't know. The entire city AND the Heterodynes made a game out of attempted regicide 1 night a year and decided the best way to keep it a secret from the Jӓgers so they don't interfere is getting them all shitfaced drunk for three days straight.

@girlgeniusevents theme week day 3: jagers

I don't draw jagers enough. Or bears

No dialogue version under the cut

tonight a Jewish holiday partially about hats starts! its called Purim, and we celebrate by making fun of the villain of the Purim story, Haman (boooo) and haman's (booooo) hat!

here is what his hat looked like

we also make cookies in the shape of his hat (or possibly his ears) called hamantaschen and eat them to celebrate defeating him.

Purim is celebrated by partying, drinking a lot and being as loud as possible, so I think it could be quite popular with Jagerkin!

Ho, dat does sound like fun! Mebbe hy take a break zo it dun get too loud fer me, but any party iz pretty often qvite fun.

Now, hy dun know about de jewish holidays. Hy didn't get out ov Mechanicsburg much, ja? Und our holidays hy tink iz pretty locally specific. Zo! Hy looks into it, because, vell. Hyu mention a hat zo ov course hy gots to!

But he sounds like he vas a coward, tryink to get odder pipple to do his fightink und fer soch shtupid reasonink? Iz goot he gots executed cause hy bet he vould have been a borink fight.

Through a Lost Princess Eyes: Chapter 20: No Longer Lost.

Hey hey hey I gave original-flavor Virgil a light reimagining that matches my current design and story sensibilities, as well as how he's developed as a character over the years.

He started out as a Girl Genius OC and frankly I'm still very fond of what I did with him; a mute Heterodyne mechanic with heavy spark potential who joined the jagerkin when offered instead of potentially breaking through. He's a lot more low-key than most jagers but has just as much of a mean streak, he's not unsocial but just prefers to keep to his work. He throws himself headlong into clanks and vehicles and other machines, loves working in the bowels of them, working them, trying to make Real Good Explosions, loves his heavy weaponry. He grew up on a hen farm (hates birds, so much) with his mother, older cousin, and three younger sisters and the first thing he did upon becoming a jager was kill his cousin over a long history of bullying and abuse, including the injury that left him speechless.
