You, on the other hand, are in way too deep for your own good.

Summary
She remembered how life used to feel. Exalted highs, soul-rending lows. Grief, terror, triumph. Everything in between. Nothing lit that spark in her anymore - not scrapes with death, not chems, not grandiose gestures of heroism or her name on Three Dog's lips.
But Jericho... Jericho was a cheap and dirty thrill she could still chase, if only one night at a time.

Summary
Hancock's black eyes flickered with intrigue. Nora recognized that look. The caravanners outside Diamond City watched her the same way, when she wandered back to town just a little too long after sunset. She imagined they could smell it on her, sense the softness in her like blood in the water.

Summary
Desmond hated his latest rival, first and foremost, because he was brazen. Cocksure. He left his mark on people - on their brains, to be precise - and out of that came a trail of living breadcrumbs scattered wherever he went. If rumors were anything to go by, that trail led straight into this miserable rats’ nest called Underworld.
---
Desmond chases another rival in the Great Game - an old nemesis with a knack for breaking the human spirit. When the odds mount against him, Desmond must rely on an unlikely ally, or risk losing the Game for good.
(Gen/action. Sequel to my Charon gen fic Settling the Books. You might enjoy reading it beforehand, but it's by no means a requirement.)

Summary
It was the definition of shit luck, being rescued by two slavers and a ghoul. But shit luck was what came of doing business with Ahzrukhal, especially when deals went south. By the time this was all over, the wastelanders would either be headed to Paradise Falls or dead, and it was Charon’s job to make sure there wasn’t a third option.
---
A botched errand brings an unexpected visitor, unwanted memories, and a desire for revenge Charon never knew he had.
