Third-person, multi-POV | Rammstein x OFCs / The Nocturnal Monarch
Dark, slow-burn, tour fic.
𝕯𝖊𝖘𝖈𝖗𝖎𝖕𝖙𝖎𝖔𝖓
1998. Rammstein are thrown into the relentless grind of their first real American tour-a brutal schedule that strips them raw both on stage and behind the curtain. But this time, they aren't alone. Riding the same wave of chaos is The Nocturnal Monarch, a rising punk act from Los Angeles, reckless and magnetic in equal measure.
Told in third-person, this story dives deep into the tangled web of relationships across both bands. At its core lies the volatile connection between Monarch's lead singer and Richard Kruspe-an attraction laced with obsession, addiction, danger, and vulnerability. But it doesn't end there. Fleeting desires spark between other members of Rammstein and Monarch, creating a storm of tension, temptation, and moments of unexpected intimacy. There's something here for everyone: lust, loyalty, betrayal, and the fragile bonds forged in the shadows of fame.

This is a gritty, slow-burn tour fic with a heavy focus on character psychology, band dynamics, and destructive desires. It's not just about the music-it's about what happens when two combustible worlds collide.
You don't really live next to someone not knowing them in some way.
Zoey is nearly out of money and is close to moving back to England. But one faithful metro ride changes everything. As she gets hired as Rammstein's photographer. She never thought in her wildest dreams that she would ever meet them. So, what will happen when she falls for Richard Kruspe? And what will she do about her problematic past, when it comes back to haunt her.
Can she keep it together?
