Summary
There’s a dead bird inside her chest. Splintered, hollow bones and bloody feathers. With its corpse, everything soft and delicate that’s ever lived in her rots away. Lucy holds it close, next to the image of the mercy shot that’s lodged inside her mother’s brain. She still has the sharp scent of gun smoke in her nose. Finishing her father’s work, like a good daughter ought to.
Lucy follows the Ghoul into the Wasteland as someone else entirely this time.

“Best move those legs, MacLean, before the super mutants decide they’d make better use of ‘em.”
“Super mutants?!” Lucy squawks. Her voice carries over to him even as far away as she is.

Summary
Main quest, who's she? This is a collection of side quests, baby. Whether it be speed round murder-trivia on comic books, being bouncers at the irradiated raceways, odd jobs around the casino, or being impromptu sheriffs for a robo-town.
Hank MacLean and Mr. House have New Vegas all to themselves, because Lucy and Cooper are ANYWHERE but there.
And are the Goose and Ghoul falling in love while racking up random XP? Absolutely.

Summary
After the events at Griffith Observatory, Lucy has about a thousand questions about herself, her morality, and everything else she can think of. Luckily for her, the road to New Vegas is long, and the Ghoul is surprisingly fascinating to talk to.
Naturally, she does what any (questionably) sane person would do: She falls in love with him.
~*~*~
Listen, fuckers, we are primarily rolling with vibes here. What vibes, you ask? Soft, lovely, warm ones with LOTS of assholery and angst mixed in. Expect a chipper, sassy Lucy, a grumpy, more-vulnerable-than-he-wants-to-be Cooper, and a Dogmeat that can do no wrong.

Summary
Boyd leaned his forehead against the glass partition, his eyes dancing with something slow and mischievous, the phone held between loose fingers. "In some ways we are old gods, Raylan. You ever think that? Lawmen and outlaws, both above the law, just on different sides."
“Is that what you're preaching in there now?” Raylan squinted. “The conman’s bible? May cause some difficulties with your future parole.”
“The only difficulty to my parole visits on Wednesdays, and he's neglected to attend my congregation.”

“You’re still with me.” Even in the dark, she can see the look of bewilderment on his rotting face. “Cooper Howard,” she specifies. She expects him to stiffen, but he doesn’t. “You’ve always been with me. And you’re here now, even though everything else has changed.”

Summary
Her hair is blunt from weeks under the burning sun, but he likes the way it falls over her shoulder all the same when she leans closer towards his face. He’s delirious, feels the drool of radiated saliva drip from his mouth. Everything inside him wants to eat her, to tear her to pieces, to dig into her stomach and make a home inside her chest cavity. He wants to kiss her like a dying man, wants to be so deep inside her that there’s no room for anything else, swallow any noise she would make.

Summary
Don and Kathy would move in together. They would have a dog or two and then inevitably, a small parade of adorable little brats who would call him Uncle Cosmo, and they would spend less and less time with him, not on purpose but busy with the rest of their lives, and ultimately Cosmo would learn to make his peace with it because he’d have no other choice and he would have to try to move on and not live too much in his memories. He could picture it so clearly, he figured if the songwriting gig with Monumental didn’t pan out, he could always return to the backwater circuit with a new act: The Amazing Cosmo of the Cosmos—ladies and gentlemen, he sees the future, he reads the stars, he silently pines for his best married pal and all the while tap dancing!
Don and Kathy inviting him along on their honeymoon, though—that part was a surprise.

Summary
It’s the sort of moment that would die if it happened with Morse; he would go awkward and leave her alone, wondering if she should have done something differently. But with Jim, when he raises her hand to his lips and presses a kiss to her knuckles, it feels less like a cop-out or cowardice and more like another promise, settling comfortably between them. They will kiss someday. Not tonight. Soon.
In which Joan Thursday lets go of a great love story, and finds a good one.

Summary
‘Our sins, like to our shadowes, When our day is in its glorie scarce appear: Towards our evening how great and monstrous they are!’ – John Suckling, Aglaura, 1638
A minor case progresses into something major, throwing a beautiful woman into Morse’s path. She's an American, on temporary assignment at the Bodleian Library, in charge of a large bequest by her mentor. But he's left behind more than just books—he's left a riddle to solve. Other interested parties are on the trail, though, too-- and theft and murder ensue. When Morse's new love interest lands herself in real peril, will he find her in time? This story features appearances by all your favorite Endeavour characters, along with a few original characters, including Kate DeAngelis, an intriguing and challenging new woman in Morse’s life. And also lots of period references and Easter eggs for close watchers of the show.
