    Summary

    She was raised to temper expectations, hope fitted to size. She had carved from herself a shape that behaved like contentment, but she hadn’t known the horizon could stretch beyond perception, soft and fuzzy like a promise. Hadn’t expected foul-mouthed, mean-tempered violence to burn like sugar on the tongue.

    Lucy follows the Ghoul into the desert.

    Post-S1 AU with elements of S2 incorporated.

    Summary

    Set after the end of Season 1.

    The road to New Vegas was never going to be easy.

    Between bloodshed, buried memories, and the fragile thing forming between them, Lucy and the Ghoul must navigate more than just survival in the wasteland — because what’s growing between them might be the most dangerous thing of all…

    Basically all the Ghoulcy moments we wished were in season 2!

    Summary

    The manager leans forward so fast that her chair creaks, the pipe forgotten in her hand. The look in her eyes makes Lucy think of vultures, ravenous for flesh.
    “Oh my,” she says. There’s a revoltingly breathless quality to her voice now. “You’d let him fuck you? The zombie?”
    “I mean, yes. If the alternative is him fighting another person to the death.”

    They've barely set foot in New Vegas when Cooper gets in trouble. Fortunately, Lucy knows just how to help him. All they have to do is have sex together. In public. How hard could that be?

    Summary

    She was grieving, just as he had when the one he'd trusted most in the world had shown their true colors, spending the days mostly silent until some human urgency or another arose, otherwise trudging along behind him as if the path his boots left was the only one she knew. As if his rope was still slipped tight around her throat.

    It pisses him off, though he can't place a finger on why.
    ---
    Lucy and Cooper discover that who they are together and what the wasteland has made them individually isn't all that different really.

    Summary

    The ghoul stands a few feet away, swaying on his feet and silhouetted by the gleaming rad-storm. Without a second hand to hold it, her finger sits perched between his lips. Carefully, he guides the bloody end of it towards his right hand, connecting it with his own stump. Lucy might have hurled at the sight, if she weren't so incensed.

    A few seconds pass before he releases the stolen digit from his mouth, thunder rumbles, and then — by some bizarre wasteland alchemy that she could never begin to understand — he wiggles the finger. Bends it forwards and backwards and twists it as if it is his own.

    Lucy should be horrified.

    Instead, she's just really ticked off.

    Or, Lucy accidentally resurrects her new boyfriend, and the Ghoul accidentally binds his soul to the most ridiculous girl in the wasteland.
