Summary
Enver Gortash is the CEO of Absolute Technologies. He’s on top of the world, he has a new AI venture, a gamer babe girlfriend, the watch and car collection of his dreams. Can you blame him if he displays a bit of hubris to his legions of techbro follower employees during his annual company holiday party?
Saya’s father certainly can blame him, and will use it to further his own goals. Caught between two tech world legends, venture capitalist Patrick Bane and data analytics entrepreneur Steve Bhaal, the two must navigate the fallout of the exposure of their relationship as business is forcefully mixed with pleasure.
When Absolute.ai’s newest project itself is a sex robot – ahem, an AI companion – perhaps they should be prepared for it…

The Black Hand of Bane by aqeldroma

Summary
Wherein the Dark Urge discovers the truth behind her memory loss, goes on a journey of self discovery that ends up being more of a trail of corpses, and decides to take over the world.
Everything can be read as a standalone, and everything is in chronological order.
Where to start reading is up to you:
1: Pre-canon Dark Urge. One-shots prior to the longfics are pre-tadpole and pre-canon stories. Expect the usual atrocities.2: Ruin's tale: The two longfics are an arc with a 1st POV of post-tadpole Dark Urge. Begin with Under the Black Hand, which is an Act 3 revision (starts off where you think, does not end where you think) and is the only story during the events of the game. Closing the Fist picks up one month post-canon (how actually will you take over the world? it's complicated).
3: Gortash's tale: POV third, picking up on trauma from House of Hope and continues the post-canon journey, starts with Down Comes the Claw.
4: Multi-POV (Minthara/Ruin/others): Alternating POV 1st and third, The Grip of Steel starts 1 year post-game. This longfic will bring this tale to its finale.

Summary
Once a tenday he’s inspected and modified in a way he fears and appreciates in equal measure. It’s always the same engineer with the same broad frame: dark-eyed and unnerving, with a mop of unruly black hair.
The man has a particular liking for him, Gale knows, and an ambition so sharp it impresses even him, Gale Dekarios, Gale of Waterdeep, teenage prodigy who had been granted the time to finish his degree on the homeworld solely out of respect for what they knew he would become. What’s Gortash, to rival that? Not Waterdhavian, not a pilot, not a nobleman. A mechanic he’d estimate is only a couple years younger than him, but more talented than any other he'd had, and more dangerous besides. Threatening, always, that if Gale wants to stay at the top of his game he'd give and give and give these pieces of himself over to the machine until hardly any of his body belongs to him at all.
It’s your mind that is you, Enver always insists. The rest is only a tool and an interface.
