Doctor Noxius's Chemical Courtship by Shirokuro_Jesus
Fandoms: Borderlands (Video Games)
09 Dec 2025
Tags
Summary
Lilith, the Firehawk Siren, seeks an edge against Handsome Jack. She finds it in Dr. Noxius, a genius of grotesque appearance and overwhelming intellect, who offers her power beyond her dreams. But his help comes with a hidden, meticulous agenda. Through a series of "missions," Noxius begins a slow, scientific courtship, using alchemy, psychology, and twisted science to alter Lilith's body, mind, and powers. His goal is not just alliance, but absolute possession: to rewrite her senses so that his horrific form becomes the object of her desire, her loyalty, and her love. This is a tale of slow-burn corruption, psychological horror, and dark eroticism, where love is engineered, beauty is redefined, and the most powerful Siren on Pandora becomes a masterpiece of monstrous devotion.

Summary
On a planet where the air cuts like glass and kindness is a liability, John—a scrappy, sharp-tongued engineer scraping by on bandit scraps—just wants a reason to keep building. Then he meets Caroline Jakobs, the heir to a corporate empire with calloused hands and a laugh like wildfire. Between rusted relays, shared drinks, and ghost-filled lullabies, the two carve out something rare: love, forged in grit and tempered by longing. But on Pandora, even the softest moments are edged in steel—and nothing broken stays fixed for long.

Summary
A lot has changed on Pandora in the twenty-five years since the opening of the first vault, but nothing more than the timid PAMA (Pandoran Artifacts and Munitions Associates). Once a small time group of researchers and developers, now the biggest powerhouse of the Borderlands. They seek one thing now more than ever; to tame the planet of mayhem once and for all. Not everyone is so keen on PAMA's 'ideal future'. Tensions between the PAMA cogs and Pandorans are high; peace could only last for so long. It would take one spark to light the fire that would destroy it all.
Jasmine never expected to be that spark. [CURRENTLY BEING REWORKED]

Summary
Jack barks out an unamused laugh. “What exactly could you offer me, the richest man in this galaxy?” He slowly approaches Rhys, gesturing with his arms nonchalantly. “See, I don’t think you get it. What’s stopping me from paving over your bandit friends and just taking your Eridian base for myself?” Jack finally retorts, taking another menacing step closer.
In return, Rhys edges closer as well. “You don’t have the power to do that. And I think you like me enough that you wouldn’t want to either, because that would really piss me off.” Once he’s forehead-to-forehead with Jack, Rhys removes the hood obscuring his face, stretching out his arms as if to say ‘look, here I am!’
“You wanted a Siren? Well, here’s your damn Siren.”
alternatively, Rhys and Jack open a vault together, fall in love, try to kill each other more than a couple times, and go out for milkshakes…not necessarily in that order.

Summary
“Oh, Rhys.” Vasquez actually tuts at him, the asshole. “I’m gonna start making some changes around here. Henderson was always too soft on you and your kind. He cost the Agency a lot of money, you know.”
“So?” the Omega grits out.
Vasquez, if possible, grows even smarmier. “So, starting today, you have a month to find yourself a Keeper. Or I’m assigning one to you.”
Rhys actually startles at that. “Wh- You can’t do that! That’s illegal!”
Or: Rhys is an Omega registered with Hyperion's Kept Omega Agency. Being Kept is different from courting or bonding - there are no formal attachments, just the promise of good company and the occasional bout of sex. His sisters like to call it glorified prostitution, but at least Rhys has some agency of his own, which is more than he ever would've gotten back on Pandora. Of course, that all goes to hell when Vasquez takes over, and gives Rhys an ultimatum: find an Alpha to Keep him, or be given one handpicked by Vasquez himself.
Enter Handsome Jack.

Summary
It's hard to know when to let go. It's even harder to actually let go of that someone even if you know they're bad for you. However, if you don't let go of that someone they may just take you down with them. You can only help those who want to be helped after all. So, that was your first honest mistake, when you didn't run from Jack after he showed you he was capable of killing. But then again you were from Pandora.
