Not Rhack Wednesdays! On Thursday [18] - Oh Crap What Do You Mean It Is Friday Edition
Not that there’s anything wrong with Rhack, but variety is the spice of life!
First order of business: @lackpassion who did the splash images now has a Patreon and an Etsy freshly restocked with slasher pride.
Moreteamore posted a fantastic one-shot surfer AU about Rhys and Troy which I've been showing around... but it needs showed around more, so here's a link (sexy, but SFW).
It looks like we have some Twins AU goodness coming up from @huskeddevotee . Click for a preview including illustrations!
Has @darkmagicdrag0n been up to good? Why yes! So much good! See Eris, Eridian Leda [SO COOL], and aww.
Happy Birthday to @raidbossmadi who brought us more Familiar Path, Different Place & more Edge of Chaos for the occasion. Oh Malcom no! (Oh Malcom yes?)
@monday-headache has so much cool stuff going on like this Scarleona ficlet and Strays of the Pack on Ao3.
And have you been watching Finding Ava by @frankenjoly on Ao3? I have it on good authority that it's adorable and also Tyreen showed up recently.
And in conclusion, that weirdo who writes Several Saturnine Lunchtimes At Dr. Black's updated and posted some other WTF. [NSFW]
Whew! I knew it was late this week, but hopefully it was worth it!
If you’d like your fic featured on Not Rhack Wednesdays On Thursday, the only requirement is that it not be Rhack (well, and you have to ask). Calypso Twins angst is not required, but a plus. Give me a jingle or @ me or whatever works for you. Hopefully, next weekend I will remember when it's Thursday!
Mmmh lets see. How about Sasha, Rhys and Loaderbot?
It was a long few weeks of helping Angel get adjusted to her new life. At the end of those weeks, however, the young Siren was finally settled, roughly, into a rough routine. She was awake in the mornings and helped Rhys make breakfast. She sits with both he and Sasha at the table while they eat- and she actually eats. Her voice finally grows a bit stronger, her words are spoken louder than the tired whisper they had been since she woke up from her coma.
She helps Rhys around the house and helps Sasha fix anything mechanical. Her tattoos don’t glow, and she never activates her powers. The exhaustion in her face hasn’t gotten any better, but her new guardians are the first to reassure her, in the rare event she mentions it, that it will eventually be better.
That she’ll feel better.
She always looks away, like she’s looking at something they can’t see, if they say that.
“Hey, so, get this!” Rhys practically sings out, grabbing the younger woman’s attention from her place, curled up on the living room couch beside Sasha. She looks over her shoulder to where he stands behind the kitchen island, his arms out. “We have an old buddy, he used to be a Loader Bot! Well, he kinda, like- he is one, but he got a new body- he’s a friend, that’s what matters.”
Angel raises an eyebrow. “A Loader Bot?”
Rhys leans against the counter top with a nod. “He’s gonna be here in a few- he’s super cool, we all three go way back. You’re gonna love him, I know it.”
Angel blinks but nods slowly anyway. “Okay.”
Rhys seems to falter but at the sound of a knock at the door, he snaps into action, rushing over to swing it wide open, revealing the figure outside to Angel. Her eyes widen at the sight, the golden metallic body complete with the familiar red Loader Bot eye, functioning as its memory core and general data storage compartment. The bot exchanges greetings and then looks inside the home, finding Angel and Sasha sitting comfortably.
Sasha shifts, reaching her arm across the headboard of the couch with a glance to the younger woman. “Angel, meet Loader Bot- LB, this is our pal Angel.”
Loader Bot steps into the home, taking in his surroundings quickly before focusing on Angel again. “Hi.”
Angel blinks her wide eyes, finding herself shifting a bit closer to Sasha. “Hello…”
Rhys beams, leading Loader Bot to the couch sitting perpendicular to the ladies’. The two of them sat down, Rhys grinning between Angel and his friends with an excited nod.
“Many stories have been shared with me,” Loader Bot spoke, their voice familiar, the same as every other Loader. “I also have a friend who is excited to meet you. She likes new people.”
Angel searches the figure of the Bot, nodding slowly as he speaks. A quick glance is cast to Sasha, as if to seek her permission first, and then the Siren climbs off of her cushion to step closer to the other couch. Everyone else’s gaze follows her as she holds out her hand, her tattoos swirling up and down the arm as she manages the smallest of smiles.
“I-it’s nice to meet you,” she speaks softly.
Loader Bot responds immediately, lifting their own hand to take Angel’s. The gesture lasts for a long moment as their eyes lock, the red of the Bot’s eye whirring softly as Angel’s tattoos began to glow. Neither of them notice the confused looks passing between Rhys and Sasha, the puzzled expressions only growing when Angel smiles, her near white tattoos glowing brighter.
Captain Scarlett my queen omg!! She’d get something fancy and high class, probably an espresso Con Panna which is just espresso shots topped with whip cream. Super tasty but with a good kick of dark espresso!!!
I hide my tablet somewhere and refuse to acknowledge it until I've done something fun that requires absolutely no thinking whatsoever, :'). Sometimes it takes a couple of days of not writing and just playing games or doing some painting, then I find I'm refreshed and ready to try again.
23. Have you ever taken any creative writing classes?
Other than GCSE English at school when I was 16 (half my life ago... oh no), nope, but I really want to now I've got back into writing. I might look into it if I can do an evening class, once the pandemic settles down.
25. Who is your favourite character you've written about?
I'm completely torn between Rhys and Fiona because they are both just so much fun, so I'll say both of them. I'm on with a fun fic with these two at the moment and am having a riot writing some of their dialogue. A close second is Jenna from Golden Sun, she's fiery and fierce and someone else I really enjoy writing.
How I feel about this character: Fuckin love Fiona. She’s a bunch of tropes you see less frequently in women -- con artist, asshole with a heart of gold, full of shit, thinks she’s cool but secretly a dork, bad at emotions and friendship. It’s so fun. It is an absolute injustice tht she wasn’t even acknowledged in Borderlands 3 but I guess that way she’s preserved and safe in Telltale’s nuanced writing, lol.
Any/all the people I ship romantically with this character: Man, like, any eligible bachelorette, lol. Fiona/Yvette and Fiona/Athena are my two faves. I wish she’d interacted with more women who aren’t her sister. Another injustice: BL3 has so many hot women and Fiona didn’t get to meet them!!!
My favorite non-romantic relationship for this character: Sasha, I wish we got to see more of it but I’m happy to fill in the blanks and add in the details myself. I love protective big sister Fiona. I think being each other’s only family and growing up on the streets in a place like Pandora would create a rock solid bond. They are apparently the only siblings in the Borderlands universe who love each other.
My unpopular opinion about this character: I like playing Maximal Asshole Fiona the most. The thing is that unlike Rhys, she doesn’t really have opportunity to do anything truly cruel or malicious, so Maximal Asshole Fiona is just like. A dick who’s gonna say “friendship is a strong word :)” while smirking at the dude who is about to become her best friend. The best Fiona is kind of a pain in the ass :P
One thing I wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon: lmao.............. where do I start!! She should’ve been a DLC Vault Hunter, at least in an AU where borderlands 3 bothered to have any unique dialogue w NPCs -- they just need it for Rhys and Vaughn!! hell even just Rhys idrc if she and bl3 Vaughn pretend to not know each other lmao. Anyway I wish Gearbox remembered Fiona exists and was the main fucking character.
Favorite friendship for this character: Rhys, I love their idiot dynamic, it is SO much fun, I think they’re my fave duo to write. Childish bickering and antagonizing while secretly being best buddies. Classic. Love it. Want a dozen like it.
