Summary
Anyone mind if a white boy pumps out a canon-adjacent corporate AU?
Rhys works at Hyperion up on Helios, which is already bad enough... And then Handsome Jack promotes him. In a room full of people. He’s fine. Definitely not spiraling into a morally ambiguous, confused, career-ending crush. Not at all.
Now he’s Jack’s personal assistant. The job has its perks: a shiny desk, a sweet view, and front-row tickets to whatever’s going on in that guy’s head.
He didn’t ask for any of it. Not emotionally, professionally, or ethically. But Jack has plans. Pandora keeps (sorta) spinning, and Hyperion keeps rotting from the inside out.
Do NOT work for your evil CEO unless you want to cry in a Very Expensive Chair.

Summary
Jack gets bored while on a business trip to his casino one night, and decides to get it on with that cute guy he just happened to run into. Turns out said guy is called Rhys, and that Rhys is not only one of Jack's data miners at the Handsome Jackpot, but that he also just discovered a heist targeting the casino. And whether he likes it or not, that means Rhys is now in on the hunt for the thief.
Important Note: As much as I love Borderlands 2 and Tales, I hate anything that happened after. So any Borderlands 3 or New Tales lore is nonexistent in this fic, with the exception of the Handsome Jackpot. I love the concept of that place, but hate the canon execution of it. So I grabbed it and twisted it to my liking. Aka, please do not expect any accuracy here, but just roll with it <3

None of them could have predicted that joining the Raiders would end with them becoming semi-responsible for a moody super-powered teenage kleptomaniac. But like Tannis said, they're the family she has.
And like Typhon said, raising a kid - let alone a Siren kid - makes hunting Vaults look easy.

Summary
Nearly every employee who worked under Handsome Jack agreed that those who lived under 'Sanctuary' needed to be killed. Pandora was filled with death and the uncaring.
They may have won, for now, but Hyperion does not forget. They have survived so much more than anyone gives them credit, and they will survive this. They have to. If not for their lives -then for the company everyone is trying to destroy or steal. they will do this for Handsome Jack and his Daughter. It is the very least they could do.

Summary
Heya kiddos~ Handsome Jack here, or at least that's what Handsome Jack would say if he was here, but he's not and instead I'm in his place.
You're probably asking how this happened and if I'm being honest so am I, I'm just a Borderlands fan and while I like playing the games it didn't mean I wanted to live them!
But life never seems to give a fuck what i want so you know what?
Neither do I, if life wants to fuck me over then I'm sure as hell going fuck it right back.
That, that sounded wrong but you know what I meant.
Say bye bye cupcake! Cause there's a new Jack in store!
One! Mind you that will actually try to be the hero this time, so fuck you life! You want to screw me over well im gonna screw over every bad thing that's supposed to happen and I'll make sure that everyone still comes out on top alive and happy.
Cause as Handsome Jack once said,
I'm The Hero Of This Story.
