    Summary

    Five months after the events that took place with the battle against the monster of The Vault of the Traveler; our duo, Rhys and Fiona, had previously been entrapped together in a confusing realm with no sign of anything besides the two, bound to this forsaken area in the vault they had to find a way out.

    Eventually coming upon an injured alien creature claiming to be the guardian of the realm, it asks that they end its life in exchange for their safe return to their world of Pandora, and without any further questions they do so.

    Upon waking the next day they indeed find themselves returned and unscathed, only to have a lot more questions regarding the vault… and the two.

    Fiona finds herself questioning her feelings for her counterpart dipping between platonic and romantic while recouping from the fallout of their endeavor in the vault; she soon finds an unlikely connection between her and a rather interesting person.

    Summary

    The CEOs of Atlas and Hyperion have some real shit to work through, including but not limited to: pride, feelings, explosions, Vaults and their Guardians, all-out war, denial and actual death itself.

    They're certainly not equipped to get a handle on many of the aforementioned, but they're trying their absolute best.

    Summary

    Rhys is unexpectedly sent back in time after opening the Vault of The Traveler to pre-borderlands Helios when Angel is still a rambunctious seven year old and Jack has only been the CEO of Hyperion for a couple years. His job? Probably to fix the timeline. To prevent Jack's death, and hopefully Angel's too. At least, that's what he's going to try to do. What he doesn't know is that it was complete serendipity that he was sent to that specific time and location. Technically he should be dead. And hopefully he'll either get back, or fix everything, before the Eridians come to dispose of the anomaly in the space time continuum. ( Also Jack and Rhys have some sexy time and other plot complications. Bare with me. Is that the right bear? I don't care whatever. Just read my story. Or don't. I'm not a beggar.)

    Summary

    After opening the Vault of the Traveler, Rhys and Jack are up to an adventure they didn't ask for. Or they did, but this is not what they meant. Rhys gets turned into a toddler, and Jack is left with a new body and a baby he can't possibly explain.

    Summary

    It's been two years since the fall of Helios. One year since the Vault of the Traveler opened with a beacon of light and closed again, taking Rhys and Fiona with it. One year, and Vaughn hasn't stopped looking. One year, and Sasha can't keep looking.

    The only clue they have is a single data drive containing Hyperion research on the Vault of the Traveler. The problem? The only two people who can unlock its contents have been dead for years.

    When Sasha picks up an injured and bleeding woman on the side of a dusty road, she doesn't think it'll turn into anything more than an irksome act of kindness.

    Needless to say, things aren't that simple.

    Summary

    Set after Rhys and Fiona reach out for what they think is the treasure of a lifetime in the Vault of the Traveler, our two heroes instead find themselves separated from their friends. How will they get home? And how will they even figure out where they are in the first place? Meanwhile Sasha and Vaughn search for their lost companions - and face a few trials of their own.

    All relationships are implied unless they are canonically confirmed. I wrote this as part of the Borderlands Big Bang of 2017. Enjoy!

    Keep an eye out for artwork based on this fic from my partner in this Big Bang business, by Sanzo. Find their blog with their fabulous art here - http://sanzosin.tumblr.com/
    I can now admit publicly that my fic was inspired by one piece of their art in the first place. Seems fate brought us together.

    Summary

    He coughed a few times, sitting up as he rubbed his cheek where his jaw had collided with the sand, moving it around a few times to make sure it wasn't broken.

    He opened his mouth to call out to Fiona, when he finally glanced up.

    Helios was in flames.
