Summary
There was once a man called Jack, and he had been betrayed or abandoned by everyone he ever cared about, and he decided that if he ever cared about anyone ever again, he was going to betray or abandon them first.
Then Jack made a friend. His name was Rhys.
Chapter 5 of Tales happened. Rhys kept the eye.
Welcome to the fix-it. It's gonna take a while. (It'll be worth it.)
FIC STATUS, March 2024: The Atlas timeline of this fic is now wrapped up. So, this fic is... a quantum WIP now, I guess? Point is, if you normally don't read WIPs, this story is now safe for you: just pick the Atlas option when you reach chapter 52.
Note on comments: I read and appreciate every single one, but don't always have the spoons to respond. If you have a specific question, though, I'll always do my best to get back to you.

Summary
AU where Helios fell and is 'rebuilt' on Pandora. The reader is a college student who's hired for a part-time job by Hyperion, and somehow ends up getting ahold of Professor Nakayama's flash drive. What's inside said flash drive? Our favorite homicidal maniac, of course.
Through several instances of internal conflict, the reader finds herself in an (un)lucky position.

Summary
In which both Rhys and Jack get to experience the power of reciprocity.
This was supposed to be a one-time thing.
Well, no, it wasn't, Rhys corrects himself, even as Jack's fingers tighten on his chin, tilting his face towards Jack's mouth, even as he offers his parted lips to Jack for another kiss: hard but so unhurried it's not as much possessive as proprietary; the air of ownership in it not a demand, not a claim, but simple knowledge.
It was supposed to be a zero times thing.
But the next best thing is to stop at just the once, right?

What if AI Jack got everything he wanted? What if, at the end of Tales, Rhys agreed to something he didn't fully understand?

Summary
In which Rhys and AI Jack get to test exactly how realistic Atlas's virtual reality simulator is.
Taking things one at a time seems to be working. For now. The experience is just that little bit less overwhelming, to the degree where registering multiple sensations at once becomes an option. Jack feels his fingers tightening the hold on the back of Rhys’s head, while his other hand pushes the increasingly soaked shirt off his shoulder, and he breaks away from Rhys’s mouth to trail kisses and bites along his jaw, his neck, his throat. Rhys cranes his head backwards, hair fully wet and falling over his face now, trickles of water running down his jaw and neck, getting caught between Rhys’s skin and Jack’s lips.

Summary
“I got no power here except what you give me, kiddo.”
Lies. One-hundred-percent correct, accurate, factual lies.
“I’m not gonna beg you, Rhysie.” Some of the warm, gentle electricity is stripped from Jack’s voice; a blade cutting through the insulation to show metal underneath; the sting of a live wire. “This was your idea.”
Rhys swallows. His mouth is dry.
“Initiate limited handover of cybernetic function control.”

Prompt: Lilith gets a disease thats incurable on pandora, but Helios has a potential cure - and she is FORCED to ask Jack for it, giving him the chance to test it. He laughs
