    Summary

    A Krieg/Maya slowburn fic I started on a whim that turned into an entire Borderlands 2 rewrite

    Formerly titled NFWMB

    Author note from Jul. 5, 2025: for everybody wondering if I'll ever finish this, I want you guys to know that I have every intention of completing this story and actually have a lot of ideas I want to implement. I'm just in a bad living situation rn and am dealing with depression as a result, in addition to being stressed out all the time. Hopefully once things improve, I'll be able to work on this more.

    Oct. 6, 2025: I'm working on editing existing chapters to make them more consistent and in-line with the tone I want for the broader story. Once I've finished with all the current chapters or am satisfied with the editing, I will (hopefully) resume work on the half-finished next chapter.

    Summary

    Jackson’s resident sheep farmer is known across state lines as the most reclusive man in all of Wyoming. And Joel likes it that way.

    That is until one summer, a Boston foster program busses out a batch of city kids to Jackson. Joel isn’t fond of the idea, but reasons that he could use the help. The coyotes have been picking off this year’s flock, and the barn needs to be patched up. For some free labor, he can handle one uptight city boy for the summer.

    But they send him a girl instead.

    -----

    AU: Ellie’s summer foster program ships her to a ranch out in Jackson where a gruff sheep farmer is losing his flock to coyotes.

    Summary

    “Haven’t your parents taught you not to talk to strangers?”

    “I’m Ellie.” She smiles, and he can see more gaps than teeth. “I’m six. What’s your name?” He sighs, he wants the kid to go, but he doesn’t want to be an asshole.

    “Joel.”

    “And how old are you?” He knows he’s not going to get anything done until the kid doesn’t get all her answers, so he decides to sit down, giving his back a little break.

    “Twenty-eight.” Ellie nods, taking that information in.

    “Okay. See? Now we are not strangers.” He can’t help but let out a soft chuckle.

    “If you say so, kid.”

    Summary

    “What’s going on?” Ellie demands, spitting like an angry cat, safe from her place behind Joel.

    If she didn’t think she was probably about a minute away from getting her head bashed in if she doesn’t peace-make, she might find it cute. As it is, it’s sort of just fucking up her plan for how this would go.

    “The scouts didn’t know it was Joel,” she says to her before she looks to him. Ellie’s her priority here, but Joel still looks capable of taking out any other threat he perceives, and she’d rather not be involved in a fight for her life. “You’re free to leave,” she tells him, and she doesn’t miss how Ellie holds on slightly tighter.

    Or how Joel reaches back, just briefly, squeezing her arm in return.

    “I’m not going anywhere,” he says, voice hard. “Not without her.”

    “You did your job,” she says, a little confused. “We have vehicles here. Take your pick, we’ll give you whatever supplies you want.”

    “I’m not leaving her,” he says. “You’re getting both or neither.”

    Behind him, Ellie nods once, decisively.

    She resists the urge to rub at her temples in response to the headache she can already feel forming.
