Summary
After facing centuries of death, over and over and over, the drifter has become a little numb to it. Or, that's what he'd tell himself anyway. Regardless, there's a story to maintain, people to save, and trust to build.
This is just a little tale of a drifter who might need all the time he's got to become what the Hex needs.
(Ch 1-8 have been touched up to be more canon/character accurate! Further updates incoming :) Patch notes on the #guardian spiral tag on tumblr, minor word changes only.)

Summary
For all his posturing and sharp edges, Quincy at his core was a kind and warm soul as was such the case with many of the more reserved Hex; which why Wil or Wilhelmina threw him for a loop, She was exactly as she presented herself or at least as far as his usually incredible people skills had told him and he couldn’t stand them one bit. Or at least he tried to not like them.
Wilhelmina Entrati was exactly what you’d expect from a direct descendent of Albretch himself, pessimistic, smart, calculating, calm and hard to rattle; maybe a little too hard-headed as well at least on the surface. Underneath was an entirely different story filled with racing thoughts, quiet anger, resentment and loneliness. Something she might unknowingly share with her fellow speedy protoframe: Amir.

Summary
‘That…..Was VERY rude.’
The first words even spoken to the Drifter from any of the Hex members still buzzed in his ears, even as the world swelled around him to turn back the clock as he slammed his fist into the concrete flooring. This would all be set on his terms. He could save them…He really could save them ... .He just hoped that he and ‘His Maj’ didn’t wind up destroying each other before that fact.

Summary
As one spiral ends, another begins. And as the Drifter tries to get the Tenno to go with her to Duviri for a bit of fun, things take a turn for the worst.
Another page has been turned within the Duality Saga. And it's up to both Tenno and Drifter to make things right.

Summary
Ginnungagap the great Void. Chaos the Void the came before. Norse and Greek have their own interpretations of the Void.

Balance must be maintained so preparing for Asgards destruction a new Realm must take its place. Unfortunately, fate did not consider a realm of war.

Summary
When Enyo had awoken from her cradle on Lua all those months ago, believing it was to finish the war she had once fought, she would even an punched an Orokin if he told her the truth of the wild ride she was about to be plunged into and least of all she never expected to become so entangled within THE Entrati’s personal affairs as a family, the Tenno wanted nothing to do with them, their bickering and toxic relations with each other. She had better things to do, or so she thought until now.
Now she couldn’t think of a time when she would want to be without the eccentric Gauss and her mood swings.
- Her once stoic guardian, now a shadow of their former self, still waited through time to make sure the Tenno stayed on the right path and that the future/past didn't come to annihilation of all things once again.Series

Summary
A Void-touched child soldier forced to grow up by war after war after war. A storybook hero turned vagabond forced to live and die and live again. Two halves of the same whole, torn apart by Indifference and reunited as a family. Now they must both bring their respective histories to bear to save the future from a man whose ends justify whatever dark science he needs, a mad tyrant made of beast and brother, and the cold force of Indifference itself.

Summary
Everything she’s done was because she knew she had to do it— had to save Lotus, had to save the kid, had to save Fortuna, had to save Cetus. Because if it wasn’t the Drifter, then no one would, could rise up. She’s the paradox. She’s the Champion. She has to. It has to be her.
But must it always be her who saves everything?

Summary
With nothing better to do than to let his thoughts chase themselves in catastrophising circles (don’t think about Eleanor and Lettie and how they’re getting on, don’t think about Quincy and if he got out before the tank got there, don’t think about Amir failing to stop the reactor exploding, don’t think about-), Arthur half-turned to keep Umbra in his periphery, tapping his index finger against the trigger guard of his rifle.
This was their future, if Marty’s very hasty and sporting gaping holes story was anything to go by.
or;
It wasn't just Drifter sent back to 1999. Umbra was taken along for the ride too as back up that Drifter can rely on... too bad it didn't change anything on that disastrous New Years Eve, but it sure adds some new and interesting dynamics amongst the Hex while they wait out the timeloop.

And I Needed You To Know That You Are My Favourite Ghost by The_Boxman

Summary
This is both a collection of What-If! Scenarios that I had been prompted both by myself, and by some other friends of mine for the sake of entertainment. I’ll also add smaller, canon scenes that correspond to ‘Just Not Good Enough’ that are mentioned in the proper fic, but didn’t make the cut of their scenes fully panning out. They’re not needed to be read in order to read that fic and understand what’s going on, but they’re still side stories and events that happened at some point in the fic :)
What-If! Scenarios are of course, not canon to the actual timeline of events in the previous fic, and will have any trigger or content warnings attached to each individual chapter.

Summary
In the ancient text stories told that when God grew angered with the sin of man, he washed it all away in a great flood to cleanse the sin. Mankind then grew arrogant and thought themselves able to challenge and overthrow God and in turn God dyed the sea red with the blood of mankind. A mighty Empire fell when they felt able to command Gods power. But the Voids Wings shall spread.

Summary
Earth and the human race has been on one hell of a ride, the planet is scarred and most of humanity is either dead, left the planet or in stasis in somebody's basement.
It feels like everything happened without you, but with you left behind you're left with the remnants of everything else. -

Summary
Despite the warnings from Loid and Lotus, our small Tenno makes their own way to 1999. After the Drifter took on the task of reversing the big bang of 1999 things got lonely, especially since Drifter took Excalibur. The only push the kid needed was the absence of their Nidus. Nidus they took a long time caring for and nurturing their infection to a manageable level is now with the Drifter without warning.
It's only a matter of time that a traumatized child with abandonment issues takes back their comfort warframes, maybe even meet the Hex. How unfortunate our Operator didn't get that translator Drifter made.

Summary
The Hex catches on to something the Drifter is doing (or rather, pointedly isn't doing) early on, and it's time for A Talk. The Drifter is basically a feral cat who hasn't quite decided yet whether they want to be adopted or are just here for the food, so what should be a simple question turns into something between sitcom slapstick banter and a soap opera scene.
Saying that things go "a bit tits-up" is an understatement, but don't worry about it. They're fine.
Tl;dr: The Drifter isn't using an Atomicycle and The Hex are Concerned but Kind Of Assholes About It. Drifter gets riding lessons. They go poorly.
Basically Rank 1/Neutral Chemistry levels all around, sometime in mid-February.
