Summary
Every happy ending has a beginning.
Before the famous Blackbeard, before the romance with a certain Gentleman Pirate, Edward Teach was a young waif, thirteen years old, blood on his hands and the life at sea as a pirate his only escape. Life under the clever but cold Ben Hornigold isn't easy, and less so for the youngest member of the crew who can't seem to stay out of trouble. It takes all of Edward's wit, cunning, and sheer tenacity just to survive, let alone find his own way in the world full of people who want to keep him in his place.
Never Shall We Die is an epic story full of adventure and freedom, wild joy, crushing despair, friends, enemies, mentors and lovers... Watch as Edward Teach grows from a boy to a man, discovering himself and honing his skills to become the greatest pirate the world has ever known.

Summary
Nearly every employee who worked under Handsome Jack agreed that those who lived under 'Sanctuary' needed to be killed. Pandora was filled with death and the uncaring.
They may have won, for now, but Hyperion does not forget. They have survived so much more than anyone gives them credit, and they will survive this. They have to. If not for their lives -then for the company everyone is trying to destroy or steal. they will do this for Handsome Jack and his Daughter. It is the very least they could do.

Summary
So... you wanna hear a story, eh? One about grit, guns, guts, and a helluva lotta bad decisions? Heh, you’re in luck.
This is the story of Issa Gilbert. Born on the polished streets of Promethea, raised with silver spoons, golden cages, and a whole lotta people telling her how her life was gonna go: Get schooled, get worked, get married, pop out a couple brats, then kick the bucket. Boring, right?
But Issa? Nah. She had a fire in her gut and a look that said she’d take the galaxy by the balls—or die trying.
Her sights were set on Pandora. A beautiful, festering pile of chaos where dreams are made... or broken. Guns, monsters, maniacs, treasure—all the good stuff.
Issa didn’t want a quiet life. She wanted a loud one. Glory, blood, and her name shouted across planets.
And this, my friend, is where her story begins.
Now... get off my bus.

Watching you interact with his double, the blush on your face, that damn smile. A fool would suggest you hadn't taken a liking to him. But, was HE not him? If you could love the man so closely based off of him, then surely you must love him, too. It's simple math, he'd say.
Though, Handsome Jack was never the best at math.HANDSOME JACK x READER x TIMOTHY LAWRENCE

Summary
Rhys has done a lot of questionable things in his life—stealing a vault key, trying to climb the Hyperion corporate ladder, trusting Handsome Jack—but somehow, this might top all of them.
Because despite the backstabbing, the psychological torment, and the fact that Jack is literally a holographic ghost living in his brain, Rhys might have a problem.
And that problem is that Handsome Jack is hot.

Summary
Handsome Jack-- a name that strikes fear into some, and hatred into many. For Wren, it was a name that brought a lot of mixed feelings. Love, hate, lust, and annoyance. Mostly annoyance. On again off again wasn't quite a good enough term, as it was more complicated than that, especially after the accident. The Voices insist he needs her, but Wren knows Jack is beyond saving. She's moving on, starting her own career away from Hyperion and all the atrocities that come with it. Wren wants to make a difference and a name for herself--
That is, until Jack steps back into her life like he never left. Damn that Handsome Bastard.\\Hi! This is a work I did after playing through the BL series (1-3) with my Fiancé. I was VERY inspired by the time I got around to writing it. God, I hope y'all like it, but it's mostly a brain dump and me being a simp for this toxic butthole.
Abuse is wrong guys.

Summary
It had been a long ten years since Angel died- or, well... Tried to die. She should've known her father would've had a backup plan if her eridium pumps ever failed. Now, after being found and woken up again by Rhys, Zer0, and Lor, she enters a new chapter of her life far from expected and far from Pandora. In turn for a fresh start, the siren joins Atlas in defense against Maliwan's attack on Promethea. To help out and be more than just tech support, Zer0 takes her in as an apprentice, gaining her own suit to fight firsthand and her identity secret from some power hungry twins. Things start to get tricky as old faces from the past begin appearing again; new additions to her cybernetics being more than she bargained for; and what was with the odd behaviors from the new CEO of Atlas? And, as a cherry on top, she would keep drifting back to fonder memories with a certain Mechromancer, but as things grow tense and the COV become a higher threat, the task of keeping herself a secret becomes a burden with heavy consequences and her life on the line.
