Title: A Little Excitement Before Lunch
Fandom: Nicoverse
Characters: Nico ♂, Gabriel ♅, Kamaria ♀, Moyra ♀, Lola ♀
Rating: M (L3 N0 S0 V2 D0)
Warnings: Shootings, bigotry, head-slapping, delusions of immortality, actual immortality, oddly American points of view, and a pissed-off archangel
Notes: No great leader, in the modern world, goes without a few assassination attempts. Few, however, have irate archangels looking after them. I expect you will be offended by this, in some way. If you find any of it offensive, I'm doing it right. If you're wondering where Gabriel's intensely acrimonious introduction comes from, it's inspired by Luke 1, wherein Gabriel brings news of the impending birth of John the Baptist, and curses Zacharias to silence for doubting an angel of the lord.

Title: Demigods and Coffee
Fandom: Nicoverse
Characters: Lucian ♂, Belphegor ♀
Rating: G (L0 N0 S0 V0 D0)
Warnings: None
Notes: Lucian and Belphegor, a cup of coffee, and a city street. Illustration for 'A Pain in the Ass'. I am not talking about that damned coffee cup. You'll notice Belphegor's skin is not a colour you'd expect to see on a person. That's sort of intentional. She's described as being bronze-skinned, but I liked a slightly more brassy colour.

Title: A Pain in the Ass
Fandom: Nicoverse
Characters: Lucian ♂, Belphegor ♀
Rating:Â M (L3 N0 S2 V0 D0)
Warnings: Butts. Blasphemy; expletives; a little bit of blood; ridiculous amounts of butt-pinching; come on, it's got the Lord of Licentiousness in it, were you expecting PG?
Notes: Lucian and Belphegor have a really weird, really long relationship. Lucian's just happy to have someone to talk to who's been there for some of the things he remembers. If you're wondering why Belphegor is female, here, it's because he's been summoned, and summoning Belphegor results in a beautiful young woman. Illustration for this is the next post.

Title: Struffoli With Your Sulk?
Fandom: Nicoverse
Characters: Lucian ♂, Gabriel ♅
Rating: T (L2 N0 S0 V1 D0)
Warnings: Gabriel doesn't have internal organs, but Luci, that's still disgusting. Also, the usual blasphemy, expletives, sibling rivalry, already-been-chewed pastry, more sugar than the Holy Father ever intended any one of his children to eat in a single sitting.
Notes: Love isn't always all it's cracked up to be. Also, why it's important to have friends who will come disrupt your sulking with their abject dickery in the wake of a truly necessary breakup.

Title: Annunciation
Fandom: Nicoverse
Characters: Octavia ♀, Gabriel ♅
Rating: T (L1 N0 S0 V1 D1)
Warnings: Blasphemy, blatant manipulation, threats of impending violence
Notes: Rating's a little higher than the numbers suggest, because the Holy Father is remarkably unpleasant, here, in completely canonical fashion. Gabi's got some issues with how the Holy Father goes about things, and tries to smooth things over, wherever possible, with the illusion of choice.

Title: A Much-Needed Holiday
Fandom: Nicoverse
Characters: Nico ♂, Octavia ♀, Lucian (mentioned) ♂, Wendy ♀
Rating: G- (L1 N0 S0 V1 D1)
Warnings: Expletives, blasphemy, control issues
Notes: All Nico wanted was a day off. A day he didn't have to think of anyone but himself. A day he could just stay in bed and eat pizza and look at cat pictures on the internet. Which would have been great, but an unexpected visitor disrupted his lazy afternoon.

Title: Vengeance and Mercy
Fandom: Nicoverse
Characters: Gabriel ⚧, Lucian ♂, one of Lucian's many human families
Rating: M (L2 N3 S0 V0 D1)
Warnings: Expletives, blasphemy, dysfunctional family dynamics, genderbending, drugs, wine, enough sugar to rot your teeth
Notes: The year is 587 BC, first year of the reign of Jeconiah of Judah, and the Temple of Jerusalem has burned to the ground, the city is in flames, and the Babylonians are rejoicing in having conquered Judah, at last. But, the angel commanded to destroy Jerusalem, to let Babylon take the kingdom, had second thoughts, and now is paying the price of partial disobedience. Introducing some of that heavily-hinted history between Gabriel and Lucian, long before they held those names. (Don't worry, you'll catch on pretty quick.)

Title: Party on the Mountain
Fandom: Nicoverse
Characters: Gabriel â™…, Wendy (a Magdalene) ♀
Rating: G (L0 N0 S0 V0 D0)
Warnings: None
Notes: So, uh, apparently I figured out how to do wings made of light. Wheeeee. Only took four days. I'm a dumbass. I knew the answer to this problem, and I spaced it. Glowy shit needs HSS with shadows disabled. Anyway, I'm assuming this is one of Nico's wild charity events, somewhere with mountains. Midday rave on the observation deck. I dunno. Seems like a Nico sort of thing to do. Here's Gabi and Wendy having a great time. Also, yes. Outrageous sparkly spandex. I think Gabi's got a real taste for freaky glam fashion.

Title: Nicholas Darby, Raver Messiah – Master Post
Fandom: Nicoverse
Characters: Nico, the Magdalenes, a bunch of angels, some regular folks
Rating:Â to
Warnings: Blasphemy. Lots of it. Kneecap-busting club-kid amazons. Naked dudes. Malleable genders. Sugar as the root power of all things good and right.
Notes: It's the 21st century, and Christ has returned. As a rave DJ, with a taste for happy hardcore, by the name of Nicholas Darby. Surrounding himself with a highly-skilled team of women, a few angels, and selected members of his city's homeless population, he devotes himself to charity, good works, better parties, and building a social framework that will provide for all humankind.
Art is ordered by creation date. Fic is… I'm trying to get it into actual chronological order of the stories, but I have no idea when most of them happen, except vaguely in relation to each other. (See also: how old is Nico? What year is it?)
