+1 Dad Issues

[theprehero]

Hello there! My name is Vee, and I'm bringing this wonderful hero here, Jack from Borderlands. Now, I know that there might be some nasty rumors running rampant about how he wasn't a perfect dad or maybe tried to awaken an ancient alien weapon/warrior to create a genocide across an entire planet, but those are just simply not true.

Look at that face. It's too handsome to be a villain.

...

Okay, so maybe most of that is true, but Jack doesn't know a lot of it, since I'm taking him from The Pre-Sequel, before he spaces the scientists and his downward decent picks up. That's not to say he's innocent; he's already tricked the Vault Hunters from the first game, locked up his daughter, and killed a few folks, but hey! Who hasn't done that on Pandora, am I right?

Right?

Jack's total decent into madman hasn't hit yet, though, just as he's not C.E.O. of Hyperion and hasn't yet gotten his iconic mask. However, that doesn't make him any less of a hero and inspiration to us all. Yes, it does.

If anyone wants to plot with me, I'm totally game! I also have a plurk here: veelynn!

SHE HAS NO IDEA WHAT HE'S TALKING ABOUT





IT WAS ALL THE ASSASSINS SHE SET ON HIM, WASN'T IT, IT'S OKAY HE CAN BE HONEST AS LONG AS HE KEEPS GETTING IN THE WOODCHIPPER

[theprehero]

CLEARLY YOUR FRIENDS ARE BAD INFLUENCES, HONEY. GO BACK TO THE CORE AND WE'LL TALK ABOUT IT? OR SOMETHING? JUST GET BACK IN THE CORE.

AND AWAY FROM THE WOODCHIPPER.

YOU CAN'T GROUND HER WHEN SHE CAN KICK HOLES IN THE WALL

[theprehero]

Momentary set back. He's going to find a way to cure you and get your siren self back up and running.

[circumspector]

NO CURE REQUIRED


at this point she's just glad even if he does try to rapunzel her again, her boyfriend can parkour up walls, thank god.

[theprehero]

Yeah, aren't you a little young for a boyfriend. A BAD INFLUENCE boyfriend at that.

[circumspector]

JACK, SHE IS 22 (probably) and what bad influence you hooked her up the internet when she was like 12

[theprehero]

HEY! He monitored what you looked at like a responsible parent!

[circumspector]

""MONITORED"""

Jack it was Pandora.

WHAT KIND OF MONITORING DO YOU THINK THAT WAS

[theprehero]

The general "half-assed" kind.

She will be taking her and her bad influence boyfriend out to dinner now, thank you very much. CROSSES ARMS AND SHAKES HEAD
