As a GBX employee I'm p… moreroud of what they've been able to accomplish, and as a fan I can't wait for more.
Even gearbox employees want more Borderlands
I'd love for it to have been one, but I think it's a Street Fighter reference, as what Gortys shoots out is a ball of energy, rather than a beam of energy.
I can imagine that. I was thinking about it and if you somehow come across Rhys in BL3 and get info on him (similar to his echo eye scans) it will says his relationship status is unknown.
Fiona woke up feeling warm. And...a little sore. She blinked a few times, turning toward the other side of the bed, fully expecting to see— She frowned and sat up slowly. He wasn’t there. She looked around the room. Their clothes from the night before lay strewn haphazardly across the floor and over furniture, and her hat was perched delicately on the end of a bedpost. He must have picked it up off the floor that morning. “How sweet,” she murmured, stretching and sliding out of the bed.
Wow, it had been a long time since she’d...spent the night with anyone. It had been...well, to say “unexpected” wasn’t really right. They’d both been able to tell that whatever it was between them was only getting stronger and harder to ignore as the days passed. Opening the Vault had apparently been the tipping point. Or maybe it had been almost dying. Or maybe it had been when he subtly confirmed that he’d been thinking about her the whole time. Maybe it was a combination of the three. Everything had come together so quickly that it was hard not to get caught up in the rush of adrenaline.
Standing in the aftermath, beside him...it seemed right. They’d already been through so much...why stop there? So as the day turned to dusk and the last of the color left the sky to make room for the stars, she resolved that she wouldn't try to fight it. Her entire life had been built around taking each situation as it came, and adapting to make it work. This was no different.
Still, she'd put up a characteristic (if minimal) amount of resistance as they'd talked about the future, taking good-natured jabs at him whenever the opportunities presented themselves. She knew he'd been chipping away at her willpower since they'd first met, and she wasn't sure she could hold out through one more sly sideways glance or confident smirk.
And when their collective restraint finally crumbled and she found herself following him through the halls of the fallen space station, back to the room he'd claimed, she didn't even mind. She hadn’t protested when he'd shut the door or gently pushed her back against the wall and pressed his lips against her own. And she’d let go of the act altogether by the time the first piece of clothing hit the floor.
Shaking her head with a smile, she wandered across the room toward the dresser, picking up stray articles of clothing as she went. At least she could make things look a little more presentable if someone decided to come in. Before she could get dressed or glance in the mirror, though, a slip of obnoxious yellow paper caught her eye. Hyperion stationary. Of course. Tossing the clothes into a nearby chair, she picked up the note.
Mornin, Fi. I’m in the shower. Whether or not this is an invitation is up to you.
-Rhys
Fiona immediately felt her face turn at least three shades of red. How could that bastard be so charming on paper and make a complete ass of himself when he spoke? Gritting her teeth, she crumpled the paper, then grabbed the first shirt she could find and threw it on. Damn him.
When they say Rhyiona is canon, but Rhysha won by a landslide.
I mean, jeez... nothing really happened between Sasha and Rhys in this Episode either...
Oh great I can't wait to watch it! :'D I've been watching your Corpse party let's play while I'm drawing (yes, it's possible to draw and watch a let's play at the same time)
I'm just gonna leave this here before I go to work.......
Consider it a sneak peek at a rewrite of the last few scenes I've done. I'll pu… moret up the link to the published thing later. Until then, enjoy!

Doesn't matter, I already said (as Fiona) that I ship Rhys and Sasha and already said (as Rhys) I like Sasha, so them getting teleported doesn't mean anything to me other than it sets up a possible sequel.

I actually have faith. Surprisingly x) I mean, this games has been one of their most successful games of all time. Reviews have been so positive and it seems like everybody is loving this game :P
Finally finished my painting at 3:29am because I've been playing Tftbl (I've been procrastinating)..and I'm just so happy omg (I'm gonna replay it)
Anyway Goodnight-ish
It was them steeling themselves, and I guess the player too, for what was to come. It was so good. Unfortunately, I over did it and was a little disappointed in how the ending wasn't that dark, in fact it was kind of cheesy, which I don't mind but compared to how heavy the start of the episode was, felt a little off.
Edit: Like the fact they're in single escape pods is brilliant cause it's just them and the complete isolation from everyone in those moments. I don't want to sound like one of those guys looking too deep into something simple but just the expressions they were given, we could feel what they were contemplating on that last ride down. No other game really gives you that kind of quiet moment before the storm. Like Mass Effects, you get the comfort of finishing your romance, and getting to say goodbye and good luck to everyone, but here it was just Rhys and Fiona sitting back and seeing pretty much the heavens fall apart around them.
Doesn't the intro feels quite like... 'Rhyiona'? Fiona and Rhys both in the escape pods, pondering about what's going to happen to them, going into space in parallel, together ♡ I find it really symbolic.

amen.
Isn't theoretically currently neither canon since neither is written as a certainty in a future Borderlands game?
Season 2 semi-confirmed.
Good thing I never delve much into the Stranger theories and I was pleasantly surprised when he turned out to be Loader Bot.
Oh well, street fighter's cool too.
No need to start a war here, okay? (I do find your comment humorous though.)
I'm not sure how you can measure canon-ness though. I mean, if something is canon, it's canon. You can't be 90% canon, bro.
Thinking about the comment he could mean generally future telltale games, 2vague4me.
imma do it for papa Felix and his stash.
tfw papa felix never actually betrayed his girls
SICK
Multiple interpretations!... I'm just taking the one that I like the most.
ttg fails to deliver once again
jk love you guys :^)

Well, you can get a hug from Sasha.
Oh great I can't wait to watch it! :'D I've been watching your Corpse party let's play while I'm drawing (yes, it's possible to draw and watch a let's play at the same time)
Okay, then go celebrate in the Rhysha thread instead of insulting us.
I noticed you put a bunch of "...." for separation. You can use - - - (with no spaces) under the line to separate it.
Anyway, nice fanfic! Seems like she didn't accept his offer though! Come on Fiona, YOU KNOW YOU WANT TO! ;D
And not only can we indirectly say to Fiona that we are interested in her, but we can also share a moment with her in the vault room.
Oh... That... I thought you had something more.
Thinking of writing something based around that moment... hm.
Doesn't matter, I already said (as Fiona) that I ship Rhys and Sasha and already said (as Rhys) I like Sasha, so them getting teleported doesn't mean anything to me other than it sets up a possible sequel.
holy crap, Rhys is bold.
pls fi
Well, it's all about choice then, right?
No ship really "wins".
I actually have faith. Surprisingly x) I mean, this games has been one of their most successful games of all time. Reviews have been so positive and it seems like everybody is loving this game :P
wow, it was a simple joke. I wasn't insulting or starting a 'war'.
Salty.
I guess it's kind of a you win and you lose thing maybe, no side really comes out on top, it's all how you play the game.
Finally finished my painting at 3:29am because I've been playing Tftbl (I've been procrastinating)..and I'm just so happy omg

Couldn't say it better myself.
your comment proves otherwise
GoT rated Rhyiona dreams, Kimmy ~-^
the illuminati commends her to do it
Am the only one that can't help but think of Rhyiona when listening to Retrograde?

Like just a slow, sad but passionate alone time.
Oh, she does. Just you wait...
