What if Manon had soundly broken up with Rody and didn't rebound with Vince?
Would interest have begun to develop between the two organically rather than Rody forcing himself through work for Manon while Vincent's interest in him was tempered by his desire to learn the secret to reacquiring taste?
Without the dark undercurrents and maybe with a little bit of empathy, could things be different for them? Vincent had his sweet moments afterall. And Rody could be kinder and more curious when Manon wasn't involved.
Neither of them are by any means completely stable and faultless, but maybe a solid foundation could have made all the difference.
-This story will contain light violence and swearing as Vincent is a bit of a jerk at times. Future chapters won't contain NSFW, though it will be implied. Just be aware that I intend for this to be a slow-ish burn just because I don't want to rush it. Mostly ill be focusing on fluff and romance because these two deserve that. Due to work and just life in general, updates may be off and on but the plan is to update every Monday! I hope you enjoy the story-

Top Hat Love- Copperright (Henry Stickmin)
This is my first story that I have have created so go easy on me. I'm no writer. I also got school so I might not get to work on this book as often as I would want to but let's see how that would go. This also can be hot garbage. As well, I created to cover of this book so if you would like to use it then you must ask me. Ok, enough with this, let's head to the description. So for the setting/scene of this story is that Reginald has been leader of the Top Hat Clan for about 10 years along with working his Right Hand Man, Right Hand Man(RHM and which is his real name since I don't know what his darn real name could be). During those about 10 years of working with each other both Reginald and Right Hand Man catch feelings for each other but aren't sure if the other would feel the same for them. Also Henry and Ellie have be in the Top Hat Clan for about 4 years and started to notice that both of them had feelings for each other but decided to wait until they would either confess to each other or tell them both once Henry and Ellie get impatient of waiting for them both to confess, but tease them about it when they get the chance to. Oh and Right Hand Man has his cybernetic enhancements in this story as well. Ok now read to find out since I ain't spoiling the whole story. 💜 Achievements 🏅 🥇12/19/2020- #1 in #henrystickmin 🥇12/19/2020- #1 in #copperright 🥈12/24/2020- #2 in #reginaldcopperbottom 🥉12/24/2020- #3 in #righthandman 12/30/2020- 1K Reads Started- 12/12/2020 (or 12/13/2020) Finished- 12/30/2020Complete
The Fifth Ending (Dead Plate)
Vince x Rody if it wasn't toxic! We love Rodent here, anyway in this Vince is less "yandere" and just more awkward lover boy, Manon is a [spoiler] queen, and Rody is the same as always. I'm so sorry if I make Rody 'too soft' I suck at writing characters. and same with if I mischaracterised any of them. This is taken me about 2-3 months and I still haven't finished. I hope this suffices as a cute fluff Rodent fanfic <3 Theres nothing too sexual. THE ARTWORK IS OFFICIAL DEAD PLATE ARTWORK IT IS NOT MINE I DID EDIT IT A BIT BUT NONE THE LESS IT BELONGS TO RACHELDRAWSTHISComplete
The Time Triangle
**Y/n POV** Well... This was weird. Scrolling through YouTube in the middle of the night has its downsides. I was so excited when I saw dead plate, a full playthrough with several endings. It was rather unfortunate I couldn't find out where to get it, but that's what the videos are for. To play the game FOR you. Watching the playthrough was enjoyable; but a part of me wished that I could help Rody and Vince. Neither of them deserved the harsh endings, but it wasn't fulfilling to watch Rody call Manon, getting no answer. When I woke up in an apartment that wasn't mine, I was so confused. On my bedside table laid bandages and a note, saying, 'Good luck, Y/n. Here's to a better ending.' Sometimes, wishes do come true. Out of all my wishes, this was probably the worst one to grant. **Author POV** This is DEAD PLATE. It has dark themes of gore, blood, etc. Though, I will add abuse, a drunk addict, misgendering, and foul (censored *slightly*) language. If this makes you uncomfortable, please DON'T read. I'm not putting this on mature because I believe that it's only for smut n' stuff, which I DON'T do. No lemon or lime either. NONE of that; just fluff, and this is more of a "Best friends" fic. abused!FTM!Reader x dead plate You're around 24, but abnormally short (at the start, but things will get explained, and you will grow up). I have no rights over dead plate (and its characters) or you, just the slight change in story line and the art, because I drew it. I'm posting around the weekends, though I might forget, I'll TRY to keep it consistent. Thanks, R3myR3ader (I publish every Sunday) Notes: How come the stories I think are cringe, get the most attention?!Complete
Loving You Normally
be warned that this is my first fic and it has been rewritten multiple times......... dont be too harsh its been almost 2 years that i made this 🥹💝 ═════ ✮ ═════ ᐥ I'd be a fool to leave you. ᐥ Rody Lamoree has been working as an official employee for Vincent, his boss and friend, for about 12 months. He's learnt that Manon isn't going to call him back and that he has to move on. Which he has. And he's proud of himself for it. Hell, he's even taken a bit of a liking to his boss. Rody has a pretty good life. Not good. Great. Rody Lamoree had a pretty great life! ᐥ From now on, you can tell me anything. Anything at all, Rody. ᐥ Vincent Charbonneau, Rody's boss and possible best friend, is glad Rody continued to work for him. His bistro is up and running and everything is much better. Sure, Rody spends more time with his boss than a normal person should but nothing really is normal. Vincent's getting a bit attached but he can work through that. Hopefully. He hopes he can.

Right Here Where You Left Me (KimPete)
"If our love died young, I can't bear witness." -Taylor Swift Synopsis: Before Vegas and Pete, there was once Kim and Pete. Not that anyone would know that. Probably Korn. But he's no more. And dead men tell no tales so it's just Kim and Pete who knew about the past they shared. There wasn't a problem really. Just some unresolved traumas, attachment issues, a few what-could-have-beens, and probably regrets. -Inspired by a fanfic I read about KimPete and I want to explore what happens after the story. So here it is.Complete

Starting from Scratch [DeadPlate]
What if in ending 1 of DeadPlate, Manon was actually alive? What if she purposefully ignored Rody's calls? What happened after Rody called her? This is an slow-burn story where Manon didn't actually die and lives as she proceeds to moved on from the situation she had with Rody, and where Vincent wouldn't be so psychotic. Rody's a wreck as he goes through series of negative emotions that fills his head, in which Vincent would help him, even if didn't like displaying vulnerability around anyone at all. Will Rody and Vincent become best friends? Enemies? Or lovers? -This is my first time making a story that isn't a oneshot, and I'm actually going to make this into a short series of mentally unstable Rody Lamoree and a less psychotic Vincent Charbonneau. This will probably be my practice story to help myself and get better in writing and in grammar. -Feel free to give any suggestions if you'd like me to add anything to the story! Just nothing weird or creepy. TW: Swearing, Smut [ART BY: rainny_leaf In X/Twitter] [Further TW's will be added soon into each chapters.

That Stupid Little Waiter
"Chasing petty romances isn't the end-all be-all in life." Vincent was not a man who could easily be swindled with anything, especially not love. Love is not something he wishes to bother with. He already had everything he could've wanted. Fame as a chef, a world-renowned restaurant of his own, and a nice apartment on top of said restaurant. What more could he ask for? Well, it was possibly the attention of the stupid little brunet waiter that worked for him, and he didn't even know it yet. (Dead Plate, but what if Vincent was normal and didn't have psychopathic tendencies)Complete![Behind the Scene || OffGun fanfic [ COMPLETED ]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/234497153-256-k707225.jpg)

I'm not a professional writer and English is not may native language so please do understand if I make a lot of mistakes and grammatical errors.Complete
Cold Soup
Rody goes back to working for Vince after Manon never answered him, he still needed the job after all. He slowly forms a friendship with Vince, and eventually tells him his favorite food. Which gives Vince the perfect idea for what he can cook for Rody. (Past chapter 31 is all bonus chapters.) [Dead Plate Fanfic Post-Ending One. This has a lot of angst, and does not have a happy ending. However, I plan to make another fanfic of these two later, that does end happily. I also plan to make a fanfic of Cold Front, a game made by the same creator as Dead Plate]Complete
Know that You Know
Sequel to Tailored to You. Dwelling on unspoken words, that was what Rody often found himself doing in his entire life. Dwelling on the what-ifs, dwelling on his hidden feelings for Manon, dwelling on the many things he couldn't say after she passed, and dwelling on his desires for Vincent to look his way and fall into his arms. So when those unspoken words became known to Vincent on that faithful night, the same night on which Vincent told Rody his own secret feelings, Rody thought that was the end of it, for he had already had everything he could ever want in his life. A thriving career, a life surrounded by people that love and respect him, and a beautiful partner. That was until, he found himself dwelling on another thing. A question. And the answer to it, Rody knew that he had already known long before. [Separated smut for all your needs] [Mention of Rody x Manon]Complete

In this psychologically disturbing ending, instead of Vincent biting off Rody's ear off, he kisses him on the neck and this is where things go DOWN down. Rody is now in a relationship between him and Vincent, where Vincent isn't really toxic, but he's very manipulative and takes over Rody's mind. He starts seeing hallucinations of Manon and things that she's there, but when she really isn't. While Rody isn't the only one going insane, Vincent is too. Vincent and his cannibal tendencies, keep on attracting more guests and serving everyone human food. Rody notices this, but he really doesn't say anything. Because as Vincent is a master manipulator, Rody is believing him. His mind is starting to shatter and because of the hallucinations of Manon, of course his mental state his mind will not be in a very good place. Vincent keeps on playing games with Rody's mind and it doesn't matter if Vincent wins. Manon plays a role too. She keeps on telling Rody that he loves her and not him, but Brody is brainwashed. By seeing Manons body being butchered and Vincent's manipulations, taking a really big toll on his mind, it gets to a point. Rody even responds to his hallucinations of Manon. His brainwashed in the thinking that he loves Vincent when he never really does. He was brainwashed into thinking so. Will Vincent ever stop manipulating Rody? Or will Vincent keep on manipulating Rody to the point where Rody goes bizarre insane?Complete
