    Summary

    The sink has hot water. That's a marvel unto itself. The Ghoul lets it run over his hand.

    "The shower works, too," Lucy says. "I haven't checked, but if the sink works, the shower will. Vault water chips are an all or nothing situation."

    "Huh."

    "It's funny, seeing you standing there." Lucy sits on the bed they're supposed to share. "This is exactly like the apartment my husband and I were going to share in Vault 33." When the Ghoul looks at her, she stops cold. "Not that you're my husband. Obviously. Or that this is anything like that. Or that either of us chose to be here. Actually, you know what? I think I'm just going to test out that shower anyway."

    The Ghoul chuckles.


    A radstorm chases the Ghoul and Lucy MacLean into a seemingly abandoned vault, but. Well. It's Vault-Tec, after all.

    Summary

    You need to read the other fics in 'A Kiss to Build a Dream On' for this to make sense - at least, I'd say, Flash, Bam, Alakazam, but I'd recommend reading the others too.

    A slowly defrosting Norm in hand, Lucy and Cooper end up having to take refuge in a settlement; one he'd done his best to avoid in the before-times, and isn't particularly happy about being in, now.

    They just need a few nights, though - the chance to rest, check in with a medic, maybe send a message ahead to the farm.

    Simple... right?

    For Cooper and his Goose, though, is anything ever simple?

    Summary

    Maomao is given as a concubine to the Moon Prince in an attempt to control Lakan. Jinshi is against the idea of trapping a young woman in the rear palace for her father’s poor attitude and tries his best to accommodate her as both the palace manager and as the Moon Prince. But as time drags on, he falls in love with his odd concubine and his double life poses many issues.

    Maomao never expected to be part of palace life and finds it rather difficult to adapt to. That being said, she loves the new access to overflowing ingredients the palace offers, especially the extremely rare ones the Moon Prince has taken to giving her as presents. If only the meddlesome eunuch would leave her alone, he’s making things far too complicated for her liking.

    (Mostly follows canon, but with Maomao as the Imperial Brother’s concubine)

    Summary

    “Now, I don’t mind ya usin’ yer charms, swingin those lil hips of yers to give me some cover while I send whatever junkies is watchin’ to God, I reckon it could even be a good business strategy movin’ forwards if yer so obliged. But don’t go making those pretty ‘fuck me’ eyes at me unless yer willin to make good on that promise.”
    --

    After a drunken night of debauchery gone wrong, Lucy can’t seem to break the awkwardness between them. He’s been pushing her buttons for weeks, so when she finally pushes back, she finds that hating each other is a lot more fun than pretending to get along. But can she handle the consequences of pushing the Ghoul to his limit?

    Orrrrrr sexual tension building up on Lucy and the Ghoul's adventures through the wasteland culminates in Lucy finding out just how skilled the Ghoul is with a rope ;)
