Normally, I don't love a lengthy author's note, but this one seemed to call for it. I've always wanted to write a choose your own adventure fic, so when I realized I could make a narrative out of this prompt list, I immediately thought, "What if I do as many of them as possible? What if I make them connected? What if I combine this with my desire to see Pocket fuck/get fucked by most of the cast of Deadlock?" You know, like a normal biological human would.
This was nearly impossible to tag for, considering the many branching paths. Is it crack? Is it angst? Is it horror? Is it humor? Yes, depending on which branches you follow. Can Pocket die? I mean, not permanently? If there is anything untagged that you would like a tag for, please feel free to ask. Some current tags are for future story parts, both the ships and acts.
The adventures Pocket will be having at the Baroness are broken up into several days, and I'll be updating the fic according to that. The complete adventures for day one are here, and the next update, the complete adventures attached to day two will be there, etc., hopefully to a) make this more digestible and b) help me not lose my mind trying to post all of this at once.
Traditionally, a choose your own adventure style novel has a lot of surprises, but I figured some people might want to know what ships are behind each door. To preserve the surprise for some but let others find their ships, I hid the ships behind a spoiler. If you see this symbol (►), you can click it to reveal what ship(s) are down that path. (This is easier on PC than phone but should still be doable.)
