    Summary

    Lucy MacLean has been a good girl all her life but when she finally lets loose, she really lets loose. So much so, she's drawn the attention of an ancient creature whose job it is to punish the very naughty children of the world.

    Cooper Howard a.k.a. son of Hel a.k.a colleague of Saint Nicholas a.k.a. Krampus the Christmas Devil has to deal with a familiar name, but first timer on his list this holiday season thanks to her father's vehement rage over -checks notes- nearly single-handedly destroying the credibility of the family business over the summer.

    Even with centuries of practice in punishment, Cooper has his work cut out for him. It's always the good girls that are the hardest to crack.

    Summary

    In the dark of night, when the coyotes howl and the wind sweeps like a veil across the desert, they say he rides in on a horse as black as the moonless sky. Silent save for his steed's steaming breath, the rider passes by, bringing with him the stench of death that passes through windows propped open to catch the cool nighttime air. The stories are endless, each one more chilling than the last.

    Lucy MacLean prays they're true.

    Summary

    *Spoilers ahead watch all of Fallout first before reading to get all context.

    For 200 years he had been used to his own voice and his own company. For the last few days he has been traveling with the daughter of the man who helped the world burn. He could use her but due to his own weaknesses, he slips. She barely udders a word and keeps to herself. Out of his way like she’s not there. The same pain in her eyes as him.

    Will silence be the only thing between them or is there a chance to salvage for something more? Who knows.

    Summary

    It’s definitely stupid to sleep across from an undead cannibal, but Lucy is too tired for safety regulations. If he wants to make jerky out of her ass cheeks, he will.
    But he probably won’t. Lucy has noticed that something has been decidedly less callous about his behavior, ever since she saved him. The fucker has gotten golden ruled.

    Lucy and Cooper make their way across the wasteland together, get dragged into side-quest bullshit, and learn new things in the process.

    Summary

    She kept a wary eye on its vicious stinger as she approached. “Do you… need any help?”
    “How bout,” he grunted between swings, “since you’re so damn good at playin’ bait-“ another swing- “you march your pretty little self on ahead-“ swing- “and see if you can rile up every other big critter between here ‘n’ New Vegas.”
    She frowned.
    He yanked the tail off with a loud snap, then set back on his haunches and flashed her a yellow, patronizing smile.
    “What if you run out of bullets?”
    “You let me worry about that, sweetheart.”
    --
    Lucy and Cooper get up to many shenanigans on their way to New Vegas (the journey is more important than the destination right?... right??).

    Summary

    When Lucy MacLean starts studying in the town her father went missing in, so many years ago, she does so with a mission - to find answers. Why did he leave her and her brother? Was he a man struggling with the mental load of raising two children after the loss of his wife, or was there something more?

    When she’s sent to do a profile on a nocturnal, elusive archivist, however, she finds more than she ever could have imagined. Why had so many people gone missing, all around the same time? Who was this Moldaver figure, their name scrawled in the corner of so many ancient newspapers, and why does Professor Cooper - frustrating, arrogant, handsome - insult the authors of the classics like he knew them, over a hundred years ago?

    Summary

    Cooper and Lucy aren’t speaking after what was supposed to be a simple trip through Novac to buy ammo and RadAway. Lucy ‘the Yapper’ MacLean isn’t dealing with the silent treatment very well.

    Preview:

    It looked so trivial, plastic pouches filled with RadAway, packaged carelessly in cardboard. Could it really be worth killing over?

    Lucy looked from the box to Cooper. He glared back at her.

    That heavy silence was back. It stretched between them, a tether that held them at arm's length.

    Thuh-thump. Thuh-thump. Thuh-thump.

    Summary

    He wonders if she can still see colour, or if her world faded back to black and white once he became… this. Course then again, he don’t really want to know. He ain’t sure which of the answers available would be worse.

    “What's so funny?”

    “Ain’t nothin’ funny no more, sweetheart.”

    Other than soulmates. That shits fuckin’ hilarious. So damn funny he could just about shoot himself.

    If Lucy’s world ain’t black and white already, that’d be sure to do it.

     

    or

    Cooper Howard had a soulmate before the war, but when the bombs fell she disappeared from his life, like so many other things.

    His dog, his daughter, his morality.

    Two hundred years later they meet again in some backwater little bullshit town on opposite ends of an altercation. And she fucking shoots him.
