Summary
Arcade Gannon meets the woman who would soon become his best friend, a loudmouth, impulsive lesbian named Rory Wood, when she stumbles into the Old Mormon Fort with a debilitating leg wound.
Soon, they cannot imagine traveling the wastes without one another, sharing a traveler's journal to keep track of all they discover together--but Rory's chaotic nature gets them trapped in the Legion fortress, with no way out until she does Caesar’s bidding with regards to the Platinum Chip.
Soon, the two are separated, and must adjust to life in captivity while they figure how to find each other again. Rory meets a young slave woman with whom she quickly bonds, despite neither of them speaking the same language, and Arcade is faced with a momentous task that will determine whether they are set free.
Whether or not they’ll escape the Fort, however, is only the beginning of their troubles.
This story explores the emotional depth of a queer, platonic friendship, delves into Arcade's past being raised by a single, Jewish mother, and reminds us that fate will always put us where we need to be, with the people we need to be there with--even when it gets scary.

Summary
He chuckled before taking one last long drag at his cigarette and shuffled closer to you. He got up and bowed slightly, his face a mere inch towards your own. His orbs scanned your face, exploring your expression.
"My dear (y/n)" He sighed your name out, his chained hands caressed your hair delicately.
"You're always so kind to me. You're always so, so-" he brought his face closer, nose sticking in your hair and he inhaled deep.
"So beautiful" he breathed out, eyes focusing back to your own.
You shuddered in your seat under his sharp gaze. Your heart beating loudly against your rib cage.
It almost felt like...
It almost felt like you were at the mercy of your predator.
