    Summary

    When Evie moved to Mistria, she hadn’t expected everything to be all sunshine and rainbows. The adventurer’s guild had emphasized that this was a special case—Mistria desperately needed help after an earthquake ravaged the town. Lot’s of it. Loads more than what one person could feasibly do. But Evie is always up for a challenge with a can-do attitude.

    But for March, when Evie moved to Mistria, he anticipated the worst. Some vagrant freeloader that would seem like a blessing at first but then would turn tail and run the moment things got hard and he wasn’t about to let that happen.

    It would seem that fate has other things in mind for the pair of them.

    A retelling of what we know of the story (so far!) with minor tweaks and additions to flesh it out. March's POV heavily inspired by the song "despair" by leo.

    Summary

    Everyone is so taken in by the new adventurer who moved in to "fix" their town.

    But not March. Someone needs to be rational about this, and that's going to be him.

    ...right?

    Summary

    Between her military service and her complex family life, Elle Douglas found herself almost uniquely qualified to survive in The Commonwealth’s wasteland - at least as far as Vault 111 residents went. Now, almost a full year after rising from cryogenic stasis and the horror that befell her young family as a result of the war, Elle finds herself on the verge of breaching The Institute and changing her entire life yet again.

    The Brotherhood of Steel is beginning to disintegrate around her. As a result, Elle is forced to make choices she never thought she'd make, pursue opportunities she never thought she'd have, and maybe even fall in love with a man who she never thought she would.

    Summary

    “I said it was stupid.” Nora gestures at him dismissively. She pulls her legs up on the trunk and leans against her knee. The smoke, blue-gray in the moonlight, curls around her face before being pulled out the window by a gust of wind. This would make one hell of a photograph if he had a camera. Hell of a picture to keep, too.
    “Take a picture, it’ll last longer,” she muses as she looks at him. Observing him.
    He turns his head out of habit, keeping his eyes fixed forward as he feels her studying the ghoulish half of his face. “Was thinking about it. How ‘bout you first?"
    “Thinking about it.” He can hear the smile in her voice.

    ~~

    She's the sole survivor of Vault 111. He's the ghoulish mayor of Goodneighbor. And they're about to get it on.

    On a quest to find her son after her stint as a human popsicle, Nora journeys the wastes using everything at her disposal to get closer to her goal. Honeyed words and back-alley trysts are tools of the trade. After months of venturing alone, she meets John Hancock, the charismatic half-ghoul mayor of one of the few refuges for the downtrodden. Their friendship relies heavily on ribbing and innuendo. Surely, there isn't anything more to it than that. Right?

    Summary

    The Institute has won. Goodneighbor has fallen. And 212 years after the bombs fell, Nora is woken from her cryogenic slumber to a better future underground. Only something is very wrong with the newly crowned Director of the Institute — with Nora’s husband.

    Now Nora has questions that nobody can answer. She has an old world to mourn and a new, frightening world to survive. Worst of all, her new companion happens to be an old companion of her husband’s, and the ex-mayor of Goodneighbor has a few questions of his own.
