(Y/n) never really liked Moxxi. Of course, she was kind and compassionate for others and a hard working single mother. But she never really liked how Moxxi is with a different man, or woman, almost every week for sexual appointments. However, she's Ellie's and Scooter's mom and (Y/n)'s a good friend of theirs so she had no choice but to like Moxxi. And the fact how Moxxi was with Mordecai before leaving him for Handsome Jack. (Y/n)'s heard stories about him, some good and some bad. She knows about his history with Moxxi through Moxxi and she knows the history between him with the Crimson Raiders through the Crimson Raiders. It was weird she thought since she has connections with people who had connections with the man she has never met. So far from hearing Lilith's side of the story, Handsome Jack sounded like an asshole and that if (Y/n) ever came to contact with him, kill him or run. She sighs heavily as she drove and Sanctuary is seen from afar. But inside, the more she thought about the stories, good and bad, she can't help but secretly admire him a tiny bit and hate him with a passion. From what she heard, Handsome Jack wasn't always dubbed "Handsome Jack". He used to be known as just Jack. Until Lilith sucker punched a relic into his face and leaving some Vault symbol on there, as the story goes. But he managed to kill his way to the very top of the most successful company out of all the galaxies after everything that happened between the sucker punch and then, and she couldn't help but admire that. However, she rarely knows the guy so she chooses to hate him for everything that he did to her friends. (Y/n) gums as she finally reached the Sanctuary and parked the truck discreetly out of sight so it doesn't get hijacked or stolen.
"Hey there, (Y/n)!" A cheerful and robotic voice greeted loudly as she got out of the truck. (Y/n) turned and saw Claptrap roll back and forth on his wheel excitedly.
"Oh, sup, Claptrap." She greeted with a smile as she high fived him, "Everything been good here?"
"Yeah! Not a single bandit came since the last time you were here. You sure scared them off!" He said happily and she chuckled as she grabbed the bad from the truck.
"That's good. Hey, do you know if anyone has ground up coffee?" She asked while walking to Moxxi's bar.
"I'm not sure since I'm not capable of eating or drinking but I'll ask around for you!" He said as she smiled.
"That would be great. Thanks." She says as Claptrap saluted and rolled off to ask around. (Y/n) chuckled to herself as she shook her head, "What a goofball..." She hummed as she approached the bar and swung the doors open. The bar dimly lit with the fluorescent and neon lights, some Vault Hunters sitting at the bar counter as others danced on the dance floor.
"Well, if it isn't cute lil' Red." A alluring voice called out from the bar and there stood Moxxi, cleavage all out and serving drinks.
"The one and only." (Y/n) said as she walked over to the bar and sat down between these two buff Vault Hunters.
"What brings you here, sugar?" Moxxi asked as she gave a man his drink and walked over to her with a sway of her hips.
"Just running some errands." (Y/n) answered with a shrug as she lifted up the bag and dropped it onto the counter, "Ellie wanted me to give this to you." She said while handing Moxxi a package.
"Awe, did she? How sweet, come over here and lemme give you some sugar to give to Ellie." Moxxi swooned and gestured her to come around, (Y/n) sighed and got up from the seat and walked behind the bar, Moxxi grabbed her in a tight hug.
"Oh geez..." She muttered as Moxxi then held her head in her bosom.
"I want you to pass all this love to Ellie and tell her how mommy misses her." Moxxi cooed while continuing to smother (Y/n), who let out a muffled "okay", "Awe look at you!" Moxxi gasped as she brought (Y/n)'s blushing face up from her chest, "You're so adorable. I could just eat you up, sweets."
"Th-Thanks. But I'm not a kid anymore so there's no need to treat me as if I still am." (Y/n) murmured as the older woman laughed and placed kisses all over her face and she whined in protest, managing to escape.
"Oh you're all grown up." Moxxi sighed as (Y/n) tried to wipe away the red lipstick on her face, "Grown up to be such a strong and beautiful young lady." She added as (Y/n) walked back to her seat.
"Well, that's what kids do. They grow." She huffed.
"Oh I know, but it just seems like yesterday when you killed your first bandit." Moxxi said as (Y/n) rolled her eyes, leaning on the counter and resting her chin in her palm. She's been like a family member to Moxxi's family and the Crimson Raiders, being the youngest out of all of them which meant they were very protective of her. (Y/n) never really knew her biological parents of how they all know her that much to take her in, everyone wouldn't really tell her what her parents were like. No matter how many times she's asked them. "How old are you turning? 19?"
"20." She corrected while biting her inner cheek, "I'll be turning 20 tomorrow."
"Oh how time flies!" Moxxi said in shock.
"You and the others have been taking care of me for the past 15 years and you still don't know my age..." (Y/n) muttered as Moxxi continued rambling on.
"You need to get yourself a boyfriend." Moxxi said that gets (Y/n)'s immediate attention.
"Wait, what? Why?" She asked with a frown.
"Because you're growing, sugar. Look at you. You're finally at that age, you're beautiful, you're grown, you're very well endowed." (Y/n) looked at her in slight shock as the two male Vault Hunters beside her glanced down at her chest in her tank top, she covered her chest and glared at the two and they both look away.
"I'm turning 20, Moxxi. I still have a lot of time to get a boyfriend." She stammered as a blush crept to her face.
"But how much time though, sweetie? You could get killed even before you turn 23. Hell, you could get killed tomorrow." Moxxi said as (Y/n) groaned, "Work with me, sugar. I'll help you find a man in a matter of seconds."
"Roland wouldn't approve of me doing what you do." (Y/n) said as her blush got darker at the thought of working in Moxxi's bar, "Even if her would, I can't do that."
"But Roland doesn't have to know." Moxxi tried to persuade, "Y'know what, I know this great guy at the outskirts of the Dust. I think you two can hit it off-"
"Okay~, this is when I take my leave!" (Y/n) said as she hopped off the bar stool and takes the bag, "It was great talking to you, Moxxi." Moxxi smiled and waved.
"Oh alright, sugar. Make sure to come by tomorrow and we'll throw you a party!" She said after her, (Y/n) gave her a thumbs up as she left the bar. Sighing heavily once outside, (Y/n) slumped down on the bar's steps and ran her fingers through her hair.
"I don't need a boyfriend." She grumbled under her breath as she pulled her knees to her chest, "And I'm not gonna die that early. Or am I...?" She whined softly as she rubbed her face, "A boyfriend does sound nice though... Ugh no. Guys here are nasty. All guys are nasty." She stood up and started to walk.
"(Y/nnnnn)!" Claptrap called as he speedily rolled over to her, "Someone has coffee!"
"Great, who?" (Y/n) asked with a smile.
"Dr. Zed does!" He said and she smiled even more.
"Awesome. Thanks, Claptrap." (Y/n) said as she headed off to Dr. Zed's clinic.

"Oh, Pandora. Still shitty as ever." Jack sighed as he stepped out of the ship and placed his hands on his hips, "Nothing has changed." He claimed as he looked around, "Huh, I thought it would be a lot more... What did I say? 'Thrilling'? When I got here?" He said with disappointment laced in his voice before shooting a approaching skag, "There's nothing here!" He sighed as he started walking, kicking a stone. Jack then sees a nearby town up ahead and tilted his head slightly, "Is that what I think it is?" He muttered as he squinted his eyes and the corner of his lips lifted upwards into a smirk, "Well, I'll be damned. Took me awhile to find you fuckers and this is where you've been all hiding." He hummed as he started to walk towards Sanctuary.

"Thanks, Dr. Zed!" (Y/n) thanked as she left the clinic, slipping two jars of ground up coffee into her bag and lollipop in her mouth from a check up.
"Not a problem, kid!" He called after her and closed the door. She hummed as she walked to the truck, opening the door and setting the bad down on the passenger's seat. Starting up the engine, it sputtered and shook before going out with a bang and a small shriek from (Y/n), smoke starts to come out of from under the hood and she groaned.
"Seriously?" She huffed as she got out of the truck and slammed the door shut before opening the hood, only to be met with a sudden black cloud of smoke to emerge from the engine. (Y/n) coughed and waved the smoke out of the way, studying the engine while groaning, "Damnit." She placed her hands on her hips and shifted the lollipop in her mouth, "Maybe I can get Scooter to fix it."
"Car troubles?" A voice asked from the side, not looking up at the person, she nodded and leaned into the hood.
"Yeah, just decided to give out once I needed to leave. Stupid engine." (Y/n) huffed.
"Well, that's a shame, kiddo."
"Yeah, it is." She sighed as she looked up at the man. Her (e/c) eyes widened slightly when they're met with mismatched green and blue ones. (Y/n) blushed slightly at the man who wore a mask as he smirked flirtatiously at her.
