#hancock: new vegas au .

[aamusedly]

@cheatdeaths . The New Vegas Strip .

It was almost easier with everything out in the open: who was Guy McDonough, who was John McDonough, what had happened one dry morning in the ruins of Bonnie Springs. Hancock felt rent open but not weak, at least not after a good sleep and a few smokes off a balcony only he had access too.

The plan was simple but open-ended: get what intel they could from the NCR on just who McDonough was saying he was. There was no springing into action over a man who hadn't done anything, at least not on the record, and they could only do so much on a hunch. Hancock's personal revenge was shelved in a place like Freeside.

But his brother wasn't the only thing he was vengeful about.

Hancock saw only a flash of it down on the other end of the street as he and Six made their way towards McCarran-- three peaks on a dark brown hat. He took off in a dead run, a wild sprint towards the ruffians that stole his fucking hat.

And they took off running a second later, at the grim visage of some sort of undead pirate sprinting full speed towards them.

[dusty-pistol]

I keep thinkin bout mixin Dialtown and Fallout all the time because they're my biggest fixations rn, but I forgot that I already made a Dialtown X Fallout 4 AU...

Logistically, it'd make more sense for it to be Fallout New Vegas, but I'm sooooo fixated on 4 right now. I do have ideas for Dialout New Vegas, though...

Here's what I came up with for Dialout 4, though:

Sgt Norm Allen as Nate (lone survivor). Sides with the Minutemen or the BOS. No in-between and DEFINITELY not the institute. He would probably hate synths.

On the search for Callum Crown and Mingus to get revenge for bein trapped and havin his wife and child killed in front of him.

Gingi as a tamed deathclaw (takes place of Dogmeat as a companion).

Doesn't have a side preference but probably would prefer the minutemen. Probably indifferent about synths.

Oliver as Deacon? Maybe Hancock.

Sides with the railroad or the minutemen. Doesn't like the institute and most synths but still believes synths with their own consciousness deserve freedom from the institute. Doesn't like the BOS.

Randy as MacCready, perhaps?

Also doesn't like the BOS. Is scared of synths and gettin replaced by the institute. Prefers the minutemen.

Karen as Cait?

I wholeheartedly believe this woman could wipe out whole raider camps. Doesn't like the BOS or the institute. Doesn't really like any of the factions but tolerates the minutemen.

Bigfoot as Strong? (Super mutant).

Indifferent on factions but doesn't like the BOS. Kinda crazy ngl.

Callum as "Father" (leader of the institute).

Hates the BOS and thinks the minutemen and railroad are obstacles.

Mingus as Mayor McDonagh.

Sides with the institute cuz of Callum. Mingus made peace with different sides of the commonwealth like certain raider packs, super mutants (non-feral), ghouls (non-feral), etc, to form the Mingling.

Stabby and Shooty as Raiders?

Takes the place of Porter Gage, I guess. Some of the raiders Mingus banded together with.

Theoroar as [Not sure yet] Probably just his own character.

He made his own zoo filled with various creatures of the commonwealth. Rangin from Deathclaws, mirelurks, super mutants, ghouls, mutant animals, Mr. Handys, assaultrons, and other such beasts and automatons. Probably makes them fight sometimes cuz that's a thing you can actually do in Fallout 4. Mingus banded together with him because she figured she could use his creatures to fight for the institute.

Little Billy as a gunner for sure. Just not sure if there are any significant gunner characters.

Probably the leader of a gunner group. The gunner group Mingus banded together with specifically.

Able as Tommy Lonegan?

Probably that ghoul that ran the fight club that Karen (Cait) fought in. Banded with Mingus at last minute cuz the mutant group she wanted to band with didn't exactly see eye to eye with her ideas.

God as [Not sure yet.]

Probably not sided with anyone and not in place of any character. He's his own character, I suppose. But he still is God. Mingus banded together with him cuz she figured she could use his power for the institute.

[ncrcouriersechs]

"ooh, aren’t you scary." From Hancock, for his New Vegas AU!

Scary? Was he truly that way? Sure, he was still in his full NCR ranger gear because he felt comfortable in it, but was he really scary? Actually, when one counted what he had done, what exactly did that make him? He quite honestly wasn't sure and he didn't want to think about it either.

Leave the morality for those in some religion. Not for those who only knew the click of a gun and no doubt the taste of chems.

"We're all scary out here and while some want the comforts of something far less ruthless, such as portions of the strip and whatever is left of some communities, there are some who rise above it. Who decide to tell the Wasteland that they are here to stay."

"Most, however, find themselves dead before they even make their big break and others? The entire Wasteland is out to get them, but then again? I have been wrong before," he says sharply.

( @aamusedly)

[nightingaelic]

I got a question, who do you think out of all 3/New Vegas/4 companions would make the best to worst roomates? Like from the ones who become your best bro to the ones who are horrible yet contribute to chores/rent in some way while still being bad.... This might be in some form of modern Au or the fallout universe

(excluding the bots/soggos/super mutants)

excluding the bots/doggos/super mutants

But why? 😊

Here's my tier list, brought to you by Tiermaker. Detailed explanations below the cut, starting from the bottom.

40. Jericho

Asshole who will trap you in the kitchen when you can't escape and start going on and on about how the #MeToo movement went way out of control.

39-38. Dog/God

This guy desperately needs therapy, and by god, he's going to make it your problem. Doesn't shower.

37. Clover

Clingy in the worst way, to the point of possessiveness, and has no other friends for a variety of reasons. Also needs therapy.

36. Sergeant RL-3

Annoying nationalist who is probably the reason you keep getting ads on your YouTube account encouraging you to donate to conservative think tanks or join the National Guard. At least he does the dishes.

35. Joshua Graham

Pulls out lectures about redemption and changing your ways every time you forget to turn a light off or leave the door unlocked. Insanely judgmental for a guy who believes in loving thy neighbor.

34. Rose of Sharon Cassidy

Rarely sober, and often trying to encourage you to join her in inebriation. Will hold your hair back when you puke, and will make you late and hungover for work.

33. Strong

Judgmental of any change in his environment, be it furniture, climate, or guests, and unafraid of voicing that disgruntlement immediately. Totally willing to share any of his food in the fridge, even if half of it is expired.

32. Dean Domino

Elitist mild talent who will drag you to open mic nights just so he can show off how much more accomplished he is than you. Will pick up the tab on dining out rather than do dishes when it's his turn. Doesn't take 'no' for an answer, or at least doesn't take it well. Does have great fashion advice.

31. Porter Gage

Cleanliness standards do not match yours, but he's got a knack for repairs and will fix anything in your living space that breaks, including minor welding projects. Needs to be reminded to shower. Unwilling to take a stance on anything from politics to which side of the toilet paper roll should be facing out, and will dump the blame on you if anyone has any complaints.

30. Cait

Fiercely protective of you once she's warmed up to you, but fiercely defends her own personal space, too. Cleanliness standards don't match yours, and occasionally needs to be reminded to shower. Often aggressively drunk and cries a lot over small things, but makes up for it by having your back whenever you're having a bad day, especially if that means kicking someone's ass. Also needs therapy, but she at least acknowledges it.

29. Mayor John Hancock

Laid back, new best friend material, provided you're willing to overlook some big character flaws. Shares everything he has in the fridge, cupboards, closets, provided you ask first - heaven help you if you don't. Invites friends over for wild parties without giving you advance warning. They're good parties, but they're always on bad nights for you, and the aftermath mess never gets cleaned up fast enough. Knows every drug dealer within 50 miles on a first-name basis.

28. Robert Joseph MacCready

Cleanliness standards are not the same as yours, but it's more of a neatness problem than a general hygiene problem. Will tidy up if asked to, but you're always going to have to ask him to. Shy, slow to trust other people, and insists on paying you back immediately every time you pick up the tab on something. Shares custody of his son with his ex-wife, and you can tell he's a great dad even if he isn't a great roommate. Good cook.

27. Deacon

A total mystery, in both good and bad ways. Knows all the best places in the area to drink. Disappears for up to a week at a time and refuses to tell you where he's been when he finally returns. Eats primarily breakfast cereal. Does not have any social media that you know of, but knows about news and trending topics well before you do. Eclectic fashion sense. Pays rent in cash. You don't even know how old he is. Your friends speculate about his identity to no end.

26. Butch DeLoria

Knows how to cut hair, and he'll do yours for free. Likes to complain for fun using vivid recreations of interactions he's had, which can be entertaining as hell or horribly annoying. Takes over doing the laundry entirely because he's worried about his clothes getting damaged, or maybe he just finds the work soothing. On good terms with his mom, even though she's going through a rough patch. Not a fan of your other friends, no matter who you introduce him to.

25. Christine Royce

You know she has a social life, but she seems determined not to share it with you. She's even more tight-lipped about her family life, so much so that you think maybe she's cut ties. What she lacks in openness she makes up for in organization skills and thoughtfulness - the fridge and cupboards are clean, her things are neat, and she'll make late-night breakfast food if you're feeling hungry after an evening out. Has night terrors, but won't talk about them outside of her therapist's office.

24. Follows-Chalk

Avid camper who likes to take long trips into the wilderness and return with the best pictures you've ever seen of national park landmarks. Self-sufficient when doing chores, but seems a little clueless about social etiquette, even if he's eager to make friends. Willing to talk to just about anyone he meets, including scary bikers in dive bars, transient people outside grocery stores, even postal workers who are just trying to deliver your mail. Remembers all of their names. Gives the best birthday presents.

23. Charon

Ex-military who seems to regret it, even if it got him out of a bad living situation. Quiet, well-read, and a little scary when he needs to be if the neighbors or landlord are being unreasonable. Glued to your side if you go out anywhere because he refuses to mingle with anyone he doesn't already know. Doesn't drink, but if you catch him after 2 a.m., he'll talk for hours about anything from hitchhiking to deep sea exploration to the Cold War. Mysterious past, and after you part ways, a mysterious future.

22. Old Longfellow

The foul-mouthed, devil-may-care grandfather you and your friends never had. Doesn't want to be bothered unless it's an emergency, but it's fun to bother him anyway and see what new insults he'll invent just to tell you to fuck off. Can de-bone a fish, peel a crustacean, and rustle up a chowder faster than any line cook you've ever met, and he gets a discount from every stand at the farmer's market for unknown reasons. Lost his wife a while back, and it's clear he really loved her and respected her. Can out-drink you and everyone you know. Disappears every year for deer hunting season.

21. Craig Boone

Another ex-military who still lives like his superiors are around the corner and are going to critique how he made his bed and cleaned the bathroom. Doesn't really regret his service, but doesn't NOT regret it - you can't get a good reading on his feelings, and it's complicated by the fact that whatever he did was pretty classified. Doesn't seem to associate with many of his former division, at any rate. Makes great stir fry, knows all the best pair workout routines to lose fat and build muscle, and has lots of non-specific stories about traveling around the world. His last break-up was very painful and he WILL bring it up. Might have PTSD, but he's in denial about it.

20. Piper Wright

Easily consumed by her latest writing project and may forget to feed herself or go outside. When she does remember to go outside, she disappears for long stretches of time and comes back with the craziest stories, which are great material for re-telling at parties. Nosy as all hell, and doesn't have many friends as a result, so she's appreciative of those who stick around anyway and tosses you the latest neighborhood gossip if you ask for it. Primary caretaker for her little sister, who's still in middle school and got you into watching the Owl House.

19. Raul Alfonso Tejada

Keeps to himself, unless there's some kind of tangible project he can tackle that brings him into the shared living spaces. Adopts random furniture on the street and brings the pieces home to refurbish, then sell online. Fixed one broken washing machine on a whim and somehow got hired as the building handyman, which knocks some money off your rent. Addicted to reality television. Refuses to join any of your group chats, and half of your other friends don't even think he's real.

18-15. All of the Dogs

Basic dog roommates. Give walks and food, receive unconditional love and protection. Rex still doesn't like people with hats.

14. Paladin Danse

Current military service member, and proud of it. Still, not afraid to call others in his line of work on their bullshit. Doesn't really get the whole roommate bonding thing unless it's done on a local sports team or in a camp obstacle course, but he knows how to be civil and keep his living spaces neat and clean. Gym rat who will try to rope you into going too, so much so that he's willing to lie and say you're in a relationship to get you on his own membership pass. Always looks great in photos, and half your friends want to seduce him.

13. Nick Valentine

Witty, low-maintenance guy who's easy to befriend. Runs a private investigation business online and will occasionally have clients over in the living room, in varying degrees of distress. Always lets you know ahead of time, is always understanding if it isn't a good time for you to deal with that, and will move his operations to the local coffee shop if asked. Insomniac. Owns multiple sets of the same outfit, but is still a snappy dresser. Buys donuts if there's a sale. Suspicious of anyone you bring home.

12. Arcade Israel Gannon

Anxious, but manages it. Doesn't set out to be friends, and it might take a bit of poking before he decides to give you a shot and get to know you better. Shy, occasionally judgmental, and needs to be convinced to give others the benefit of the doubt. Hates ordering out and prefers to cook for himself, and he'll happily share if it's a new recipe he's trying out. Physically incapable of sleeping in. Well-read to the point of getting annoyed at random strangers online because he knows they're wrong, but refuses to comment and correct them and would rather stew.

11. Codsworth

Polite, neat, model roommate to brag about to your friends. Does cleaning chores for fun, often right before you had planned to do them. Clingy, worries about you when you go out, texts to check in way too much. Permanent designated driver, and viciously guards the best macaroni and cheese recipe you've ever had. Loves Downton Abbey and Bridgerton.

10. Curie

Still figuring herself out, and she's happy to enlist you in the process as her new best friend. You think she might be home-schooled with how little she knows about the wide world, but she embraces each new experience fully, with the enthusiasm of a duck in a puddle. Suggests trying a new restaurant every time you order food, tips delivery drivers way more than normal, and insists on doing the dishes as soon as they're dirtied. Dances like nobody's watching while she's vacuuming.

9. Veronica Santangelo

Set out to share a living space in order to get away from her family and a recent failed relationship. Honest and open about all of that, and about how she's hopeful she can move on. Participates in a local boxing club and roller derby team, and most of her wardrobe consists of sweatshirts and yoga pants. Content to lounge, eat popcorn in front of cheesy romantic comedies, pick out the worst dialogue with you, and run it into the ground over the next week. Also loves to go fancy clothes shopping, and books reservations at an upscale restaurant once every few months in order to justify the money she drops on Depop.

8. Star Paladin Cross

Legacy buzz cut lesbian who may or may not have military service under her belt. Either way, she's fit as fuck and hasn't slowed down her social life just because she's getting older. Well-known in the local community as a Pride event organizer and activist, tends a box garden outside one of the nearby churches, and jogs every morning to stay in shape and say hi to everyone she cares about. Often has guests over unannounced, but they're all upstanding members of the community and usually come with a bag of produce to stuff in your fridge.

7. Waking Cloud

Older than the rest of your friend group, but she's perfectly happy being out of the loop on the latest fad. Sweet and caring. Has three grown children who drop by now and then to catch up with her and get to know you over tea. Certified doula who disappears overnight occasionally on an assignment, but she always texts to let you know she's okay. Great cook. Demanding cleaning schedule. Will mom the shit out of you.

6. ED-E

Doesn't say much, and doesn't need to. Television addict who can spend hours binging every new show on Netflix. Works for the local post office and is on good terms with just about everybody you know. Insists on carrying all your bags if you go shopping together. Can't cook for shit, but can do all the other chores better than almost any other roommate you've had.

5. Ada

Kind, practical, and solution-oriented. Just as willing to listen to you vent as she is to unclog the sink. Interested in tech that can make your lives easier, which led to her purchasing a high-end security system and a Roomba. You're a little worried that the upgraded tech is spying on you, but you're also pretty sure that she's tinkered with it to the point that it's no longer connected to any corporate networks. You're unsure of the legality surrounding that, so you stay out of it. Loves to travel for sightseeing and watches MythBusters on repeat.

4. X6-88

Strong, silent type. Answered the ad with three months' rent ready to go, plus the security deposit just in case. A little socially awkward, but in a way that makes people give him a second glance. Follows a strict diet and won't deviate, even for special occasions. Organized to the point of eyebrow-raising. Will eventually open up about his control-freak beginnings, and grow more and more loyal in his friendship as he shares. Wears a lot of black sweaters, and looks damn good in them. Can't stand pet fur though, and he'll go through a lint roller a week if you come in with a dog or a cat.

3. Fawkes

Works night shift as a security guard, so his days are largely free. Volunteers at the local library and reads every book under the sun. Always has the best YouTube recommendations for you, and pulls the best recipes to try out off of TikTok. Mildly clumsy and may break some dishes, but he'll apologize and replace them if it happens. Bleeding heart animal lover who will temporarily adopt any strays he finds, which is usually adorable but can be stressful.

2. Preston Garvey

Stays out of your business, unless you ask for his help, in which case he throws his everything into backing you up. Volunteers at the local homeless shelter and food pantry, and still makes time to join you for movie night with pizza and the latest Marvel release.

1. Lily Bowen

Your new grandma. Literally everyone in town loves her. Will make you breakfast in bed on weekends and chicken noodle soup when you're sick. Bakes constantly. Makes the best cookies. Turns cleaning chores and grocery shopping into a game, and runs a book club and knitting circle out of your living room. All her grandma friends love you too, and they keep trying to set you up with their grandchildren.

[aamusedly]

Hancock stood and stretched, fists balling over his head as a set of large, sharp teeth opened wide on display. He could certainly take a bite out of someone well enough if he chose to.

But the friendly smile on his lips said otherwise. "Nah, brother, I already got my forty winks. You're a good dude, though-- I'm here to bend your ear, actually."

Dark eyes glanced down. "Nice panties."

Bobbie didn’t mind people crashing at his place. He recognized the level of novelty staying at the Lucky 38 provided. Oooh it’s been locked up since the bombs dropped but look, now they’re letting ghouls in.

He did have one pet peeve, though.

“If you turn left from the elevator, there’s an entire bedroom you can use.“ If Bobbie could hear how the annoyance in his voice made him sound just like House, he’d probably throw up. “There’s even a couch if you don’t like beds.”

[aamusedly]

@cheatdeaths from HANCOCK.

A public outreach effort from an NCR diplomat turned into an impromptu mayoral debate early this week out in Freeside, when surprise guest appearances involved the Ghoul Mayor of the settlement of Goodneighbor, and New Vegas' own elusive Courier Six.

Eye witness reports detail that the Visiting Diplomat John Hancock became violent with the NCR ambassador, resulting in a broken nose and some minor radiation poisoning. A short jail time was lessened further by some smooth moves from our local Courier Six, giving the squeaky wheels of justice a little elbow grease.

NCR officials provided comment: "This violent outburst of a foreign despot upon our democracy is unprecedented and unwarranted. The ghoul John Hancock is neither a citizen of the NCR, Freeside, or New Vegas, though his camraderie with local influencers are deceptive. For more information, consult with our new pamphlet: The Ferals of Goodneighbor; Chems, Violence, and Anarchy."

It's certainly a juicy, inside scoop on the rise and fall of the previous settlement of Goodneighbor, and--

"I've heard enough," Hancock grumbled. He was already setting a course for Goodneighbor, boots hard in the dirt. "I'll bet Cass has a hold on some of these pamphlets. Insider scoop-- what a fucking piece of shit. How's he doing this?"

"Rad poisoning. Bullshit."

[lorddeath]

we are back at it again, boyos - i know i posted something about this like, two years ago, but times have changed and so have my hyperfixations. : - ) 

hellooo. my name is katie, i’m 21+ yo, i work a fulltime job and i have five cats and a dog with my partner in crime and girlfriend. i do have 12 years of experience in the rp community both on and off tumblr (christ), and while i have tried to find a platform that suits my needs, i have come to the conclusion that tumblr is really the only place to find people like me, so i am opening up a ... roleplay partner call. 

looking for:

someone to write ships/etc. with

someone who is willing to be friends outside of rp!

a buddy to throw hcs and ideas back and forth with all night rather than sleep (last part is kind of a joke but also isn’t 👀)

someone that is okay with/encourages playlists or pinterest boards for ships, characters, etc. and enjoys character development 

putting preferences and fandom specifications under a read more! 

my preferences:

i write in third person and tend to create para/novella style responses. fluent in english. no *action* writing, please.

smut’s cool. i enjoy writing it and do not need to fade to black, so if partners can be 18+, that would be fab.

i prefer to write over discord. willing to give my discord out to people who respond.

i am most comfortable writing canon/canon ships, however i do have a slew of ocs that i would not mind a) creating aus for and b) writing with other ocs or canon characters.

needing someone that is patient with replies - i am mentally ill af and my creative motivation waxes and wanes. i need as much room as possible to make sure that i can write a decent response to any active roleplays, and sometimes i can crank them out in minutes or days. it really just depends. 

things/tropes that i want to write:

give me things like vampires, witches, werewolves - fantasy is HUGE for me right now!

friends to lovers

enemies to lovers

f/f, m/m, f/m !!

platonic love 

doesn’t have to be fandom related, could just be oc/oc!

fandoms:

star wars (BIG HYPERFIXATION RN) - i am a huge prequels fan but i am willing to write pretty much any stage of the saga

characters i am willing to write: anakin skywalker, obi-wan kenobi, satine kryze, padme amidala, leia organa, han solo, poe dameron, myriad of different ocs. others upon request. 

ships: obikin, obitine (!! a big one for me right now!) anidala, obidala, finnpoe, canon/oc. 

dragon age - i have played all three games and am eagerly awaiting the next

characters i am willing to write: anders, solas, cullen rutherford, possibly alistair if i am in a certain mood, myriad of different ocs, others upon request. 

ships: solavellan, anders/hawke (male or female), canon/oc.

fallout - i have played fallout new vegas, 4, and 76.

characters i am willing to write: this one is a bit of a smaller list but hancock is a favorite of mine. ocs are a thing here, too. i can try to write other canon characters upon request. 

ships: available for discussion. 

star trek - i have seen all of the nu!trek movies and most of the original series.

characters i am willing to write: leonard mccoy, montgomery scott, spock, ocs.

if you have made it this far... COOL BEANS. thanks for being here! feel free to message me here on tungle dot hell if you are interested in any of the above. i am always willing to clarify or answer any questions. 

thanks!

Em's arm wrapped around Joker's shoulders to help steady him, and laughed when he thought she was going to hug him. He hugged her tight, and she gently returned it, happy to go along with it for a moment.

"I'm fiiiine," Joker said. "I can go… all night!"

"Oh, Joker," Em chuckled, then kissed his cheek. "The night has had enough of you. So it's time for bed."

[aamusedly]

While they made their way to the repurposed statehouse, the ghoul dug in the inside pocket of his frock for a pack of smokes and a lighter-- one for Boone, one for himself, slipped between ravaged lips.

The place around them was odd-- the beginnings of a real town, springing up like a weed in the desert, populated by... primarily vagabonds, ghouls, and thugs. Even a pair of super mutants could be spotted down the way, looming over a game of Caravan played between ghouls beneath a canvas tent.

Hancock led him up a rickety staircase to what seemed to be a private office, set with a balcony overlooking the town square still occupied by supply crates and building materials. Hancock made his way over to what seemed to be a makeshift kitchenette, and began rummaging while smoke trailed up from his cigarette into the rafters above. "Let's see here-- think fast, cool guy."

And Hancock was tossing him something to eat-- what looked like a somewhat fresh loaf of bread and a can of beans and peppers. "Now it ain't much, but Daisy is a hell of a baker. Crispy ass crust and everything. Now eat up."

Boone took in every ounce of the settlement as they entered. It was always good to know your ins and your outs when you entered a place like this. There was no reason for him to trust it yet, and so he analyzed it carefully. There wasn't much yet, but there were weapons. That much he could tell.

"Goodneighbor." He repeated, trying to commit that name to his mind. Goodneighbor. Goodneighbor. Three times. He did the same with the ghoul's name. Hancock.

The initial touch, barely there to worry about, still caused Boone to flinch. He didn't like being touched to begin with, and he especially didn't like to be caught off guard by a touch behind his back.

"Honestly, I need a cigarette." His tone was flat, but there was the smallest hint of a joke on his tongue. Despite this, though, he was very serious about his desire for a nicotine buzz.

Food, water, sleep. Those were all things that could come later. Especially sleep. This was a fine enough outpost, but he didn't trust anyone here to close his eyes yet. For all he knew, this could be a cleverly disguised raider outpost.

[ma-sulevin]

I was tagged a while ago by both @a-shakespearean-in-paris​ and @thevikingwoman​ to share my fics for quarantine reading recommendations. 

So, here we are, broken down by fandom:

Dragon Age

Scars Beyond Counting, E, Complete, Alistair x Female Mahariel, 36k

Harea Mahariel has only been married for two weeks when she contracts the taint and loses her husband at the same time. Suddenly, she's thrust into a war she barely understands with a strange group of people who slowly become her new clan. Her one bright spot is Alistair, the only other person who understands what she's going through, and who slowly breaks down the wall she's built to defend herself.

The Fire and the Flood, E, Complete, Cullen Rutherford x Female OC, 40k

Rose Wedgwood is a storm mage who became a spirit healer after living through the fall of Ferelden's Circle tower during the Blight. When the Circle falls a second time during the mage rebellion, she joins the Inquisition at Haven instead of fighting with the rebels.

What she didn't know is that a certain Knight-Captain who survived Kinloch Hold with her is also working for the Inquisition.

In My Blood, E, Complete, Solas x Female Lavellan, Blackwall x Female Lavellan, 5k

Nora Lavellan has had her eye on Solas since she arrived in Haven. She wants him, desperately, and is pleased to discover that he's been dreaming of her too.

Meant to be read in conjunction with "The Fire and the Flood," but it isn't necessary to enjoy this story. Lavellan/Blackwall in chapter 3.

Into the Valley of Dreams, E, Complete, Cullen Rutherford x Female Trevelyan, 23k

When Asha Trevelyan learns how to manipulate the Fade to control her dreams, she starts using it to stave off the homesickness that comes with traveling Thedas. She misses Skyhold, her new home, but most of all she misses Cullen, the man she's been longing for since she woke up in Haven.

Though she enjoys the benefits of such a talent, her lack of training means she doesn't realize when she's snared Cullen's dream within her own.

The Life and Times of Sophie Amell, E, Complete, Female Amell x too many pairings, 32k

Sophie Amell was just a very young girl when the entire course of her life changed because she can summon flames at her fingertips. Each time she thinks her life is settling into something resembling normalcy, everything changes once again. She's conscripted into the Grey Wardens, she's sent to Amaranthine, or she loses someone she loves.

Usually, she loses the ones she loves every time her life changes.

This is the story of unwilling Warden Sophie Amell, told in four parts: The Tower, The Blight, The Wardens, and The Calling.

Ophelia Cousland series, various ratings, Complete, Alistair Theirin x Female Cousland, 12k

A series about Alistair meeting and marrying Ophelia Cousland after the blight. The fics are like half smutty, half not.

At Wit’s End, E, Complete, Harry Carlyle x Female Ryder, 17k

While her brother is off saving the cluster from the kett, Chloe Ryder is stuck on the Hyperion to recover from the weeks she spent in a coma. Rebuilding her strength and muscle tone is nothing compared to trying to ignore the building attraction to her doctor -- Harry Carlyle, the man she'd wanted to seduce back in the Milky Way before she lost her chance.

Say You Won’t Let Go series, E, incomplete, James Vega x Female Ryder, 29k

A series of smutty fics of increasing length and emotion starring Avery Ryder and James Vega, in an AU where Avery doesn’t join the Andromeda Initiative and stays to fight the reapers instead.

Dissonance, E, Complete, Reyes Vidal x Female Ryder, 77k

Avery Ryder didn't want to be on the Pathfinder team, but she didn't want to stay behind in the Milky Way either. As a compromise, she joined the Initiative with plans to work in Colonial Affairs -- but those plans come crashing down after she wakes from stasis too early, joins the rebellion, and is banished with the rest of the exiles.

On Kadara, she makes do with what she has. She works for Sloane Kelly to make ends meet until she just can't stand to see Sloane taking advantage of the exiles for one more minute. Once again, her plans come crashing down, and she finds salvation with the Collective -- and a certain smuggler who always seems to be around every corner.

Hazel Shepard series, E, incomplete, Kaidan Alenko x Female Shepard, 13k

Ocs Time!!!

With another whumptober plus fallout 4-tober starting tomorrow, here's another refresher for my ocs using alohasushi's picrew

First up is Danai! The star of my very first posted fic, Blindsided! (It's a bad pun ik but I love puns so the name stays) She was born blind which makes it very hard to adjust the wasteland life after she de-thaws in Vault 111. Thank God for Codsworth and eventually Preston who helped her get used to the new world. She ends up helping the minutemen and eventually meets Hancock, whom she falls in love with. They find the railroad and decide to help them out too. Danai acts as a connection to both factions and they become allies. She wants nothing to do with the Brotherhood or the Institute but she still has peace talks with their leader - James. She absolutely despises him

James is the night to Danai's day. He grew up in the wasteland and had a VERY poor childhood resulting in him not trusting any human. He now only prefers the company of animals like Dogmeat or his pet albino Deathclaw, George. He has acquaintances but no one that he would hesitate should he have to kill them. Except Danai - he develops a very unhealthy obsession with her soon after they meet. He had just taken control of the Brotherhood and they met up for a peace talk. She intrigued him and he latched onto that. He eventually takes over the institute as well and decided he has enough power to take over the Commonwealth, betraying Danai's already brittle alliance by doing something very very bad and the war is afoot!

For the youngest of the bunch, we have Rubi! A mine tore off her left arm and leg when she was only sixteen, but her wealthy family (institute connections) hooked her up with some very nice prosthetics. She was very sheltered growing up and wanted to experience the world even after the accident so she ran away at 19. She quickly meets up with Danse's patrol and helps them out, earning a spot with the brotherhood. She helps James kill Maxson and take over the Brotherhood because she didn't want Danse to die and thought Maxson was a jerk for it. After that, she becomes the second in command.

Katie is the goody two-shoes of the Capital Wasteland. Mainly I wanted to write a childhood friends to lovers au with Butch and thought that canon is more like guidelines anyway. Her best friend besides Butch is Charon. After finding out about his situation, she did everything she could to make money so she could buy his contract. She wasn't exactly surprised to see Charon kill Azrukul but it was pretty shocking. Either way she had her money back and a new body guard. He was the most helpful to her, teaching her how to use guns other than pistols, keeping her relatively safe and fed on their adventures. They grew close enough that Charon no longer tensed up when she was near and started talking a lot more. Turns out, he has a very sarcastic sense of humour. She finds her dad and her twin sister after awhile and saves the wasteland

Speaking of the twin sister, Rese here is the meaner of the two. She didn't care for her sister's heroics and didn't want to live in her shadow after her glorious saving of the wastes thing, so she set out west. Eventually she finds herself in Nevada where she comes across a bloody and bleeding courier. Thinking that it would be an easy way to get a job, she takes the seemingly dead woman's clothes and heads to the location on the note, Primm. From there she takes an easy job as "Courier Six" and well. You know how that goes. She loses all of her memories except her name, but gains them back when she confronts Benny. She strives for independent Vegas because she has a hard time with authority. Besides that, everyone else is a terrible choice anyway

The real Courier Six, Roxie, was ambushed on her way to pick up a new job. She was saved by a traveling doctor near Novac and recovered quick. When she gets back to Primm, she is enraged to find out that someone took her job, no matter how sideways it went. She started tracking Rese down and the two get in many scuffles. When Rese starts to gain power, she decides to do the same and utilizes the mark of Cesar she got from Vulpes to join the Legion. Arguably the strongest single faction, it would be all too easy to kill Rese... right?

ok I've thought about that fallout au some more and here's what I'm gonna go ahead and establish now

In this AU, Ares is her name by birth. She is the second oldest of 3, having a deceased older brother named Jasper. ( Eden retains her name across all AUs, so nothing about her name changes here ). Her family comes from Vault 24, a vault cut from Fallout: New Vegas. Utilizing my personal headcanons, the vault was located east of Vegas in Henderson, Nevada. Also utilizing my headcanons, those living in Vault 24 would have been a mix of historians, farmers, engineers, doctors and a handful of seamstresses. The vault survived and opened only a few decades before we experience the story of Courier Six. Ares and her family were some of the last to leave the vault, making their way out when Ares was 7.

Ares spent the rest of her life just outside of New Vegas, a little ways to the north of its borders. They faced Fiends for years, which prompted her parents to teach her how to shoot at an early age.

Due to her brother's passing, Ares takes the helm of working as a courier for the Mojave Express, bringing home the caps her family needs to survive, along with some weapons and food she buys from merchants.

Because of her taking her brother's job, she becomes Courier Six. The ending to her story goes several ways, depending on who wins the Hoover Dam.

If the ending falls under Independent New Vegas or The House Always Wins, Ares remains in Vegas, living in the Lucky 38 with her sister and companion(s). She continues to work as a courier and earns the nickname of Six, due to her being the sixth courier.

If the ending falls to an NCR controlled Vegas or a Legion controlled Vegas, Ares will leave and head east towards Diamond City, refusing to speak of her past unless she trusts you enough to know.

Her allegiance is a curveball -- depending on who she's with and what she thinks of them, she may side more with the NCR or House. If she's with someone like Arcade, she's adamantly for an independent New Vegas.

Ares will never side with The Legion.

Speaking of Arcade, she has preferences for companions. In New Vegas, her preferred companions are ED-E, Rex, Cass, Raul and Boone. She prefers to drag Boone and ED-E with her to places like Cottonwood Cove on the basis that he'll cover her and they both hate the Legion. She likes to take Cass with her around Vegas because Cass is the only one able to drink her under the table. As for Rex and Raul, she likes having them around during most of her trip because Raul understands her suffering and is willing to help repair her armor and guns while Rex is just a very good boy.

Her compatibility is the issue in question. Boone could potentially dislike her for the fact that she's loud and brash, and runs headfirst into fights.

However, in terms of the Boston Commonwealth's slew of companions, she's most compatible with Deacon, Hancock, Piper and Cait. They all seem to share a very crackhead vibe and it's hilarious.

I have the distinct feeling Nick Valentine would hate her guts because she enjoys getting into trouble and he's a cop.

Danse would be another companion she struggles with because he's a hardass and she likes to have fun.

hopefully, as I continue to expand this AU and get some insight on how I can improve it, we'll see updates to this list.
