    Summary

    Staying true to our whirlwind, slow burn romance, we continue following you and Logan's evolving love story; however, a misunderstanding caused by the visit from Commander Avery leads the two of you in a new direction, one that challenges you both as you begin to grapple with the less dire reality of living your normal lives. Exploring the immense pressures of being the person at the center of it all, we deep dive into the Builder's responsibility and sense of duty to those around her. Your friendship with Logan is quickly blossoming into something more, though now that he's back and is making amends for his time away, you find yourselves being pulled down different paths. Struggling with the distance that you protectively foster for the sake of each other, we ask this question of our lovelorn duo: will things ever be the same? ⊹ As a small preview into the work, we kick things off at the climax of the Duvos conflict and end with Cornered Beasts (hint hint!). Please see the notes section for the referenced game missions. I will preface that this is a much longer timeline than the previous two installments; nevertheless, retaining the theme of the series, this one is still heavily guided by main and side missions!

    Summary

    In the desert town of Sandrock, Andy is just trying to figure out who he is and who he wants to become. With his family by his side, he sets out across sun-scorched dunes to face monsters, wrestle with responsibility, and learn what it truly means to protect the people he loves. A coming-of-age tale full of monsters, mayhem, and more heart (and humor) than a desert can hold.

    Summary

    He was just scoping out the water tower, in response to intercepted messages about water being secretly siphoned right under the residents’ noses.

    Logan didn’t mean to kidnap one of Sandrock’s Builders in the ensuing chaos.

    With his latest act of impulsive recklessness, he now has a scarred young man with a dark past under his watch. Things are more complicated than before, and that’s even without throwing his own darkness into the mix.

    Light have mercy on them all, him especially.

    Summary

    Logan asks Lucy to fix a broken heater at the Outpost.

    A short fluffy bonus chapter, part of 'Friends with Benefits'. Would recommend reading the other parts first — not essential if you haven’t, but possibly contains minor spoilers.

    Part 6 is in the works :)

    Summary

    “They found themselves in a room that should never exist. This was a time of armistice and prosperity, and yet, there they were, a testament to the price that peace exacts.”

    He made a mistake, he broke her heart. He wants to take it all back, but the circumstances refuse to grant him a second chance. A complication regarding a mission stood in their way. An unknown force seemingly controls the strings of fate and destiny.

    The mission was everything. Failure was never an option. Love and dreaming of a future were a luxury she couldn’t afford. It was a costly mistake, one that he was going to pay the price for. She was going to break his heart in a way he’d never recover like Howlett. How was she supposed to reconcile that she loved him more than anything, and yet she’d hurt him beyond forgiveness.

    “You can’t save me…not this time.” Eyes locked as they stood at the precipice.

    Summary

    Trust. That's the one thing you and Logan have found in each other. Whether it be from the unspoken affections you've shared or simply from the commitment you've made to Sandrock, you're in the thick of it now and you're in it together. ⊹ Though you've remained adamant that your late night rendezvous with Logan in the last installment was simply the cornerstone of your newfound friendship, neither one of you can disguise how close you've really become in just one night. When you notice it yourself, you start to wonder if there really is something more lying just beneath the surface or if it's all in your head. Our favorite devious duo, Grace and Haru, capitalize on the slips you both begin to make as they bear witness to your interactions in another night of bliss, except this time, it's with the whole gang. ⊹ As Logan and Haru's return comes to a head in the “Fall from Grace” mission, we greatly dive into the resulting fallout and weave canon and head canon dialogue throughout to expand on this critical moment in the story for all involved.

    Summary

    Returning to Sandrock after a grueling two-day hunt, Logan discovers that a wild yakmel has attacked Lucy and Andy, leaving the town's beloved builder seriously injured. With her independence temporarily stripped away for weeks—possibly months—Lucy has no choice but to accept help from the protective yakboy and his enthusiastic son.

    As the three adjust to their unexpected living arrangement, Andy's well-meaning but chaotic attempts at caregiving create both disasters and delightful moments. But in the quiet moments between accidents and laughter, something deeper begins to build between Logan and Lucy—something neither of them planned for, but that might just be worth constructing together.

    Summary

    We all know “The Goat” by heart, but what happens when you spend the night at Logan's Hideout instead of returning to Sandrock right away? I present my version of this pivotal mission, one heavily laced with canon and head canon dialogue. ⊹ Though you seem to start off on the wrong foot, as the night wears on, you and Logan share some incredibly sweet moments that ultimately lay the foundation for your undeniably strong partnership (see the work tags for a spoiler!). ⊹ In the spirit of full transparency, I aimed to create a more in-depth version of the Builder's introduction ("you") to the gang and how their individual friendships come to fruition. I also strive to answer a few burning questions: how and why does Logan trust you so deeply and what did he think about that first spark you shared after the Water Tower incident? ⊹ I'll leave it there and let you dive into their slow burn, budding romance. Thank you for reading!!! 𖹭

    Summary

    A fanfic self-insert of Female builder and Logan, as they seek shelter from an unexpected sandstorm. This happens as they are on their way to a cave for the quest "Cornered Beasts", as I felt there was a lack of buildup to the quest and their relationship.
