You said to stay as long as I like, and I haven’t left your bed since by Pebs (Atalto)

Summary
Joule and Wrench are fucking again.
It's really not a massive problem - it's not like Porter's a prude, he's spent all his life around freight for fuck's sake. But Electra hadn’t warned him just how hard the would be to ignore now that he’s tuned into the datastream.
~~~
New to this strange, futuristic communication, Porter’s not sure how to handle this new influx of emotions from the electrics. Electra helps him through it.

Summary
The yard was full of the usual excited chatter that always preceded a race. Everyone choosing racers to root for, bets being placed, anyone not in the race setting up around the course in a perfect vantage point to see their favourites coming around a bend.
Porter and Lumber had stood off to the side, clapping and cheering for Rusty and Slick, playing the ever supportive role that the steamer had come to expect from them. That he'd come to expect from Porter most of all.

Was this plan really worth it?

Summary
Dinah runs her very own sleepy little grease spot in the middle of nowhere Starlight County. She loves it more than anything in the world and values her cooks Hydra and Slick. She's head over heels for local hotshot racer Greaseball and Greaseball feels the same about her but neither know it. Big things are brewing in this sleepy little town as a fresh face shows up to work the diner! Pearl wants to be part of the world of racing but will have to stick to pouring coffee for now. Rusty comes to live in the junkyard with Momma and wants to salvage himself a race car to take on the world with. Electra has gained much confidence in their driving through being the front car for their components' convoy. Who will rise to the top?

Summary
Requests open, (any character, any version of the show, et cetra ) I am no longer taking requests that include smut/sexual content regarding most characters/productions - leave requests them in the comments or you can request via Tumblr (@notkithart, details on profile)
Commissions open see @allsortsofthings-sb on Tumblr for details

I have tagged all the characters and relationships as best I can but please scan through and see if there is something you want as I have tried my best to organise it in an easy to read and navigate way.
Anthropomorphising/humanisation of characters (especially physically) will vary (so if you have a preference for a request specify)
(Apologies in advance for my knowledge on the history of this very complex production, please do give notes in the comments about what is right and wrong for the characters - be brutal if a character seems off. I do my research and know a decent amount but still can make mistakes as I am human)

Oil Is The Work Of The Diesel by lamestghoull
Fandoms: Starlight Express - Phillips/Stilgoe/Webber
07 Dec 2025
Tags
Summary
Momma was a steamer, and a proud one at that. Taking her age and her strength in her stride that couldn’t be dampened by insults or jeering. And that was the clash. Slick was Momma’s daughter, she’d raised her after all. But there was always that underlying factor, steam and oil didn’t seem to mix.

I Think I Need a New Heart, Just For You by KYR3N
Fandoms: Starlight Express - Phillips/Stilgoe/Webber
06 Dec 2025
Tags
Summary
What do you do when you almost immediately fall for the new coach in the yard? What do you do when you find out "she" is actually "he"? What do you do when you realise you're still head over heels for him, despite being under the impression you were nothing but straight? That was the situation Porter McCoy found himself in. His response to those questions? Pushing away his queer friends and family and panicking.
(Work title from I think I need a new heart by the Magnetic Fields) -
There’s wolves around my neck (can’t talk about them yet) by Pebs (Atalto)

Summary
It's rare that Porter's ever this unsettled.
Not that it's a bad thing, but he's fairly sure it's got to be at least three in the morning, and he's not someone who's bad at sleeping. The last thing he wants to do is wake Rusty.
~~~
In which Rusty has a nightmare, and Porter deals with it badly

An (ir)rational fear towards repair trucks by Ohwell1imdrowinginginideas
Fandoms: Starlight Express - Phillips/Stilgoe/Webber
29 Nov 2025
Tags
Summary
The morning following the race, Hydra’s glares and guilt has been eating Lumber and Porter alive. Having enough, they finally go and apologize to Rusty. Rusty, being the way too forgiving soul he is, accepts it, but asks Porter if it was because of the crash that stopped him from racing.
*My interpretation of the fandom’s universal headcanon of Porter not racing due to a crash in the past.

Summary
Rusty grew up believing the Starlight Express would always guide him home. Momma taught him to look to the brightest star whenever he felt lost, and for a long time, the legend was enough to keep his hope alive.
But the world has changed. Steam engines are disappearing, the yards grow colder, and faith begins to crack under the weight of reality.
