Summary
He should’ve left her.
That’s what raiders do.
Take what’s useful. Burn what isn’t.
Instead, he carried her back through the storm, her body hot against his chest, her pulse stuttering like static through a radio.Now she lies in his bed, fever-bright and half-dreaming.
The others call her cursed, whisper that she’ll poison them all.
They call him worse for caring.Some nights he sits with his gun in hand,
watching the light crawl across her skin,
telling himself mercy would be easier.But every time she breathes his name—
quiet, wrecked, like a prayer he doesn’t deserve—his finger freezes on the trigger.
Every night she gets a little stronger—
and every time he looks at her,
she reminds him of the world before it ended. -

Summary
Descending hundreds of feet underground as sirens shattered her American Dream, Evangelina Ward believed Vault 111 would secure her family a future. Instead, it stole it from them.
Held captive in a twisted cryostasis experiment, she could only watch as strangers brutally murdered her husband and kidnapped her son.
Two hundred and ten years after the skies burned orange, Eva resurfaces into a lawless, destitute husk of a world.
Haunted by her failures and desperate to keep the past buried, she carves her own path through the wasteland in search of her son. Guided by compassion and a fierce sense of justice, she forges alliances and friendships as she rises through the ranks of its most notorious factions.
But as they say—the higher the climb, the harder the fall.
When allies become enemies and trust turns to betrayal, Evangelina faces the toughest decision of her life.
Will she build the legacy she always dreamed of, or succumb to the one lurking in her blood?

Summary
When a caravan carrying Duncan’s cure and Hancock’s “special cargo” is ambushed, the surviving mercs are ordered to retrieve the goods or lose their contracts. MacCready joins them as he’ll do anything to make sure his son’s cure makes it home.
He didn’t expect Princess to be among his new team. Older, sharper, very much alive and suddenly not insufferable. And she is not the only face from Little Lamplight he finds in this misfit crew with a charismatic leader who is far too good at making people love him.
Old loyalties, new dangers, and something deeply wrong beneath the surface. MacCready just wanted to save his son. Instead, he may have walked into something far worse.

Summary
In a radiation-ravaged wasteland, the synth V-7 emerges from a broken past and finds herself thrust into a hostile present. Driven by a fierce survival instinct and accompanied by the Watchers, whose connections she gradually discovers, she wanders through the ruins—hunted, but also drawn, by forces beyond her control.
Between bloody battles, ambiguous encounters, and decisions that gradually shape her humanity, she goes beyond the simple idea of survival : she becomes something, someone.
The question remains: what—and at what cost ? Is she really guided by her choices or by what has been programmed into her, hidden deep within ?(Started in 2009, right after Fallout 3, with my character that I called "my NPC" XD -it seems like so many lifetimes ago-... Between different versions, more than 200 pages in the "to finish" folder, here's what's come out of it, so far...)

Summary
Nora thought she and Solas were going to restore Elvhenan and ride off into the sunset. Instead, she wound up in the Ossuary—imprisoned, experimented on, and turned into a demon factory.
Now she’s loose with terrifying new abilities she barely understands, a Blight spreading like wildfire, and a pair of elvhen gods dead set on world domination. Add in some unfinished Inquisition baggage, and her plate’s more than full.
Good thing she’s made some new friends.
If only they didn’t think she was the enemy.

Summary
Evelyn Jones, wife of Vault-Tec Vice President, Nathan Jones, has a seemingly perfect life. But the mansion she lives in is a prison and long ago she learned to fear its warden. Her infant son, Shawn, is her only reason to live.
Evelyn's life is turned upside down when, as nuclear war erupts, Nathan brings her and Shawn to a cryostasis vault to wait out the apocalypse, along with the rest of Vault-Tec. She wakes over two hundred years later to a nightmare: a man with a gun demands she give him her baby. He then murders her husband and attempts to assault her, but she manages to escape. Once outside the vault, she collapses before yet another strange man pointing a gun at her. On the brink of losing consciousness, she somehow knows, without a doubt, she can trust this new man and asks for his help before everything goes dark.
Over the next year, Evelyn finds a new family, one she believed to be forever out of her reach. With the help of the soldier who saved her and through blood, sweat, and oh, so many tears, Evelyn fights to shed the chrysalis of her trauma to become Evie Dernhelm: A warrior strong enough to find the man who took her baby and get Shawn back.

Summary
I was reading a fic that handles the Shaun relationship in a very interesting way and I thought, "God, imagine someone with my hyperspecific parental trauma being thrown into that situation." Then I remembered saying just like two days ago that Fallout 4 was a great vehicle for self-insert fic and thought, "Ha! Imagine if I actually wrote that! I could even fix the ending!"
Sixty thousand words later, it's a stream-of-consciousness mess, but it's certainly fun to write.

Summary
She had to run. She had to survive.
And once she tastes freedom, she can’t go back to the Vault that spent years trying to “fix” her.The Wasteland is too loud, too bright, too terrifying—but she’s determined. Even if she has to stim through firefights and info-dump her way out of raider camps. Then she crashes straight into MacCready: a snarky merc who thinks she’s a psycho… right up until he doesn’t. Their partnership should never work. It works anyway.
But the Vault doesn’t give up its secrets—or its experiments—without a fight.

Everything is so fucked. Holy shit. Jesus fucking christ!
He stood, bracing himself with his hands on his knees as he looked out over Concord and the stretch of destruction beyond it. He couldn't stop the tears flowing down his face. He was so cold. Deep deep in his bones, like the ice he'd been sat on hadn't quite left his blood yet.
Two hundred years. Oh, God, Nora, what do I do? Where do I go!?
He was screaming in his head. He couldn't get his throat to work or his legs to move. Was he screaming out loud? He didn't know. He could only stare out at what used to be his home and hear the roar in his head. He'd lost his best friend, his son, his life. Everyone he'd ever known was dead.
Nothing had ever prepared him for this. Nothing. -

Summary
Daniel’s a character, if not a tad unpredictable. He’s old without the wrinkles to show for it, and young in a world he never lived in. Because of this, Nick’s head is consistently spun around when he expects a wasteland-fueled blab, and instead gets a level-headed response.

Summary
Some just want to claim the wasteland for themselves, no matter who they have to step on to get it.
Ella doesn't even want to find her father. Paulo is disinterested in who he used to be. Amalthea obsesses over finding meaning to her life. Ruby just wants to be a good mom. Sometimes, you don't get what you want, you take what you can get.
