Summary
The most devastating part of having your entire worldview shattered is seeing for the first time all the people in your life who have been lying to you. Although you also get to see who hasn’t been.
In a shell-struck old observatory on a hill overlooking the ruined remains of two civilizations, Lucy MacLean goes with her gut and decides to throw her lot in with the only person around offering her a feasible path forward. The Ghoul pretends he isn’t relieved to hear her footsteps trailing his own. Across the breadth of the country and the spans of time, events would begin to transpire to allow for their shared endeavor to be a success. Also, they both develop big fat stinking crushes on each other, which is really inopportune. -

Summary
The last thing Miss MacLean expected when heading to the market in search of ribbons - and answers - was a Rogue. An unknown man with a threatening aura who seemed just as interested in meeting Dr Wilzig as she.
Dark, mysterious, and no doubt dangerous, she marked him in an instant as someone to avoid.
Intent, however, is not always as easy as it sounds.

Summary
The bombs never fall. Instead, Cooper Howard plays a key role in taking down Vault-Tec for good, becoming a more exalted American hero and household name than ever. With his ex-wife serving a life sentence in prison, he just wants a slow life for him, his daughter, Roosevelt, and Sugarfoot. Naturally, he buys a quaint ranch near Bakersfield to escape the press and pressures of returning to Hollywood.
The young, charming, and bright-eyed schoolteacher named Lucy MacLean immediately catches Cooper’s eye. A divorcee herself, she’s responsible for opening Janey back up after losing her mother in such a public way. But the more he gently pursues her, the more she pulls away. It’s got something to do with her past. Determined to help her heal, he goes the distance to show her he’s safe. She’s half his age, but she’s who quiets his world.
Until Hollywood (and so much worse) comes calling.

Their bond is forged in fire: violent, intimate, and unshakable. But when Paladin Maximus - soldier, former companion, and the man Lucy once begged to follow her home - reappears on the same trail, the past crashes hard into the present. Now, three lives bound by love, betrayal, and blood are set on a collision course. In the Wasteland, the truth doesn’t just hurt - it burns.

Summary
After flying free from the Vault that raised and experimented on them, Lucy and Norm MacLean try to find themselves a home in the Commonwealth.
Until one night, they get roped into the chaotic life of its oddball residents.
AKA, the AU where Lucy and Norm are Vault-Tec human-bird hybridization experiments who’ve ended up in the Commonwealth, Maximus is still a naive Brotherhood of Steel Squire who’s been transferred to the east coast, the Ghoul is f*ucking around, the Courier and his medic companion try to evade their pasts but have it follow them anyways, and the Sole Survivor is just looking for a chance to rebuild the family he had lost. (Guest starring Chet and Thaddeus just because)
This isn’t canon compliant and makes use of cut content from Fallout 4 (such as the alternate ending for Paladin Danse’s personal quest). Reader discretion is advised.

Summary
A direct continuation of the Fallout series after season 1,

Summary
When Lucy MacLean starts studying in the town her father went missing in, so many years ago, she does so with a mission - to find answers. Why did he leave her and her brother? Was he a man struggling with the mental load of raising two children after the loss of his wife, or was there something more?
When she’s sent to do a profile on a nocturnal, elusive archivist, however, she finds more than she ever could have imagined. Why had so many people gone missing, all around the same time? Who was this Moldaver figure, their name scrawled in the corner of so many ancient newspapers, and why does Professor Cooper - frustrating, arrogant, handsome - insult the authors of the classics like he knew them, over a hundred years ago?

Summary
Lucy could see three figures opposite them, but that was all she could see. The sun hung low in the sky directly behind them, molding them into thin simple shadows and blinding her in the process. She squinted against the light and managed to point her gun in the direction of one of them. From what she heard, The Ghoul pointed two revolvers towards the others, who both had their guns pointed at him. This stalemate was spiraling down towards a less than savory ending, but Lucy could still try mediating the situation.
Or: Lucy MacLean and the Ghoul bond over their time in the wasteland and look for Hank MacLean because they both want questions answered. Neither of them really knows how in god's name they went from reluctantly working together to becoming friends, but neither is complaining (too much). Both are more than aware how valuable a friend is in the wasteland. Also, Dogmeat!!

Summary
“I just hope you don’t let him keep you from being happy.”
Lucy’s whole body went rigid, jaw twitching as she crushed the cigarette into the stone, the still-glowing embers crackling against the tips of her nerve-damaged fingers. Max sensed that he’d overstepped, but he kept on anyway.
“It’s been four years, L-” He caught himself before he let the name slip again, leaning in, his voice low. “If he wanted to find you, he would have done it by now.”

Summary
Lucy hasn't seen any member of the Howard Vampire Coven since Monty broke her heart and yanked away her chance of eternal life the day after her 18th birthday. A decade later, and now a deputy sheriff in a small town in the middle of Nowhere, Maine, Lucy's life is dramatically different. When Cooper Howard, the coven's patriarch, arrives at a crime scene as the new Medical Examiner, Lucy can't help but wonder if he's connected to the string of steadily growing murders, and if he ever discovered the secret she's kept for 10 years.
AKA, my fic for the Ghoulcy Week October 2024 Day #4 Vampire prompt, AKA the Ghoulcy AU fic that bravely answers a question we have all definitely asked ourselves: "What if Ghoulcy existed in a New Moon/Twilight AU where Bella realized Carlisle was a DILF, the Cullens still peaced out but there was no trips to Italy so Bella moved on with her life, until she reconnected with Carlisle years later for a small town murder mystery, and they ended up banging?" aka not your mother's Twilight AU.
