Summary
With a dead mercenary comes a boatload of dead ends, and then it gets even better when the only lead Sammie does have proves to be one that will likely end up with her dead. Isn't life in the New World just grand?
A small collection of one-shots following my Sole Survivor’s life between finding Kellogg and her first foray into the Glowing Sea, with a focus on worldbuilding and exploring the relationships between various groups in the Commonwealth. Please see chapter notes for individual summaries.
NOTICE: I'm afraid I am not going to be writing again any time soon, so this is effectively finished. Sorry.

Summary
Diamond City. The Jewel of the Commonwealth. The biggest – and arguably only – new bastion of civilisation for miles around. It’s a place of opportunity and new beginnings, a hub for gossip and leads, and the single safest location in a region filled with all sorts of things that are trying to kill you.
But held in the deathly-cold grip of fear and paranoia, it isn’t exactly living up to its reputation. Fortunately for Sammie Hartwell, the Great, Green Jewel also works its magic in more subtle ways, with bigger players than one might expect hiding in the shadows cast by the Wall.
Sometimes, you just need the right friends to illuminate the way, even if they’re not be the ones you initially expected.

Summary
"When your stomach is empty and your mind is full, it's always hard to find sleep."
En route to Diamond City and coming up on two weeks survived in the nuclear wasteland that was once her home, Sammie Hartwell reflects on some recent happenings and what she has learned during them. The stand-out lesson is that she should expect a lot more of the answers to the questions buzzing about in her head to in fact be questions themselves, a stark reality that is endlessly frustrating.
Meanwhile, another question - one that she, and she alone, has the answer to - looms over her heavily, alongside the fact that her answer likely won't be that which the asker wanted.

Summary
Sammie Hartwell had been looking forward to a cushy, picture-perfect life as an employment benefits attorney and mother in the polished-chrome world of 2070's America. Instead what she got was atomic annihilation and a return to the rough-and-tumble existence of a terrified conscript, only this time it is in the crumbling ruins of Boston rather than the fiery fury of the Alaskan battlefields.
Emerging from Vault 111, she has a whole lot of questions to ask, a whole lot of lessons to learn, and a broken family to repair before she can start to call the Commonwealth home.
This is (the incredibly generic summery of) part one of that story.
