Reading all this stuff from @border-spam 's Leech Lord AU makes me want to write my own little drabbles about Koetai and the twins.

Currently working on something but I don't know which direction. Its going.

@border-spam mentioned you on a post “OK so I slept on it, and realised what we saw of the twins yesterday...”

@someidioticurl I love all this. The beauty of the info we have now is it could go SO many different directions. I totally feel Troy's powers are part of what should be all Tyreen, so she's got a major chip on her shoulder about him being a Siren at all, and I'm very excited to see what we learn about how Sirens are selected, what triggers someone to show their tattoos, I genuinely can't wait.

It could be that in a week we’ll get another video and it will smash this theory into the smallest bits and arrange them into something even better xD

With how she calls him a parasite and it doesn’t seem like the first time I think there’s some reason he’s even there, be it because she needs him around to have any control over her own powers or anything else. We probably can agree ‘out of the goodness of her heart’ is not the reason.

My current theory about how one becomes a siren is that everyone has some potential to become one. What are the qualities one needs to become one? Dunno. Being born male is probably one big no-no, so while dudes still have some potential it’s laughably small compared to any woman. Thus, there has never before been a male siren. 

Jack might be a manipulative liar but I’m willing to believe him when he said there are only six sirens in existence simply because he was talking to bandits in this recording, not Vault Hunters. If the number is different, it wouldn’t be much different.

So how does one become a siren? As per my current theory, once one siren dies, the person with the most ‘potential’ manifests their power. They might be still in the womb, they might be 50, it doesn’t matter: they have the most ‘potential’.

Tannis simply figured out what criteria one has to meet to increase their ‘potential’. Maybe she even found a way to increase the potential so much it surpasses any of the current sirens and one starts manifesting siren powers despite not being an official one

Welp, but as I said, that’s my current theory and I can’t wait for Gearbox to make me throw it into pieces and rearrange it :)

ok @border-spam​’s post ignited some feral urge to redraw an old piece she commissioned me so instead of taking a few minutes to work on blocking the last few frames of my studio project i instead sat for 7 hours straight redrawing this from scratch old ver: 

[wainwrightjakobshammerlock]

Aight so, in that HC post I did about the distinguished gents I figured there's no way they weren't aware of the COV pretty early on what with Winny heading a feckin.. weapons corp, and Hammerlock being Hammerlock. With YOUR take on em, what were their opinions on the twins/COV pre everything going to fucksville. Figure their both experienced enough to sniff out frauds promising glory.

(OKAY so this is in the context of my rewrite AU, be warned)

Wainwright... probably wouldn't know until his father died. He's a sheltered, rich, white boy./lh (also, he's kinda busy caring for Angel). That being said, his father probably wouldn't care much either because he's an asshole <3 and at some point, Gaige would definitely tell him that shit's about to go down on Pandora

Alistair has basically gotten a bit of an allergy to any and all "Siren News" ever. I don't think he's even considered going back to Pandora ever since he arrived at Eden-6 (for various reasons) but he'd definitely try to keep in touch with his friends "down there". He hears of two wannabe god streamers and it makes him want to physically vomit
