    Summary

    Sequel to Little Girl Gone

    Thanks to Lucy MacLean, Jacobstown held out against the Enclave's attempt to recollect their Super Mutant remnants led by their meddling, mutated, malformed apprentice, Henry MacLean. The big bad has been struck down. The day has been saved. Now, clearly, it's time for rest, recovery, and celebration of a job well done!

    Except it's not. Not by a long shot.

    The Enclave is still out there, Cooper's family is, too, and Norman is still a subject in one of Vault-Tec's many experiments. What's more is the source of all the trouble seems to be coming from one place. After assuring Cooper she's healed enough for travel, they break from their fake marriage routine and settlement life helping Marcus rebuild to kick off one more journey together into the mountains of Colorado.

    Nothing but questions lie ahead of them of what they'll find and who they'll see, or even if they'll run into anyone or anything they mean to. Only one thing is for sure: nothing's fair in love and war.

    Summary

    “Is everything ok, Mr. Howard?” the corpse of Lucy MacLean says politely, “You look a bit…sad.”

    Sad? Sad? Cooper has no way to see how he really looks right now, and would rather put a bullet in his own head than find out but the word sad couldn’t possibly cover it, this icy fire stealing over him, this monster in front of him, the uranium thrumming through his blood. The post is through his gut again, he’s impaled and it’s hot, it hurts, it’s all his fault.

    “Don’t worry about it, darlin’” he hears himself say from far away, “Was just at a funeral, is all.”

     --

    Cooper often feels like he’s in two places at once. Like the past is present and the present is past and he can’t do a damn thing to change either of them. No matter what he does it’s like his world is always ending.

    But this is still Vegas and the games are all still rigged. And if that's the way it is, he finally decides he doesn't want to play at all.

    Summary

    “You knew who I was, and you still did all that. The Cooper Howard I knew wouldn’t have done that to me.” Lucy said.

    “That was 200 years ago, darlin’.” He sneered.

    “For you. For me, that was four years ago. I was asleep while you turned into… this. I should leave you here. I’ll find my dad without you. Thank you so much for your time, Cooper. It was great to get reacquainted.”

    “Lucy!” He called from the couch. “Fuckin’ hell, girl, just wait.”

    Lucy spun violently on her heel. She wanted to shout at him. To ask how on earth he was Cooper Howard. She had known him. She had been friends with him. She’d been well on her way to falling in love with him. How was this scarred, vile thing him?

    “You’re not the man I met 200 years ago.” She said.

    “Oh yeah?” He spat. “You’re exactly how I remember you.”

    _____

    Or, Lucy and Cooper met before the bombs fell, and are reunited 219 years later.
