Fics like The Ferryman

Charon held out a long, knobby arm, their fist closed around something. Roach reached forward with both palms outstretched below Charon’s downturned palm. They opened their hand and a bright yellow sphere fell into Roach’s cupped hands. It was warm where it cushioned into his skin, but then bounced up again and stayed hovering just above where he held it, radiating golden light. Roach had never seen anything like it. This is the Everlight, Charon told him. It holds hope within it, and it is everything you will need to complete your work in this place. Hope is a flame, the light that never falters, the beacon of eternity. Roach swallowed, staring at the Everlight with wonder. “Where do I start?” Or, Roach finds employment in the afterlife taking over for Charon. The souls he comes across are people he knew in life, and seeing each one again has its blessings and its pains. No matter what, he must do whatever they ask to help them move on from the world forever. Even his beloved Izzy Hands.
