Summary
"As the song ended, he made his next mistake. She looked up at him with her eyes so full of sparkles and stars and he leaned down, cupping her chin in his hands and pressing a soft kiss to her lips."
Owen is Sandrock's most hopeless forever bachelor, Cass is Sandrock's new star builder. Can I make it any more obvious?

Summary
"She dared not to speculate, to chase down the thinking of the madman masquerading as her husband would only further impede her ability to rest, and rest was sorely needed. Rebuilding Sandrock was an ordeal, sacred of an undertaking as it was. To rebuild her daughter’s home was the greatest mission of her life."
Builder Brienne's daughter will not rest, not without a bedtime story from her father.

Summary
"Zane wasn’t sure why she was being handed off the Arbiter, other than maybe Barney wanted her to push him out the airlock of her ship. Or maybe the idea of sending her off on another misadventure involving arbiters was his idea of humor. Maybe both."
Commander Zane finds herself signed up for a very arbiter intensive protectorate breeding program during a messy infiltration mission. When she runs into a particularly thick-skulled arbiter nearly five months later and certainly showing, it doesn't take long for them to recognize each other.

Summary
"Tristan did not relish having blood on his hands, at least in the literal sense. He wore gloves for a reason, but the work of removing bandages required precision that his heavy gloves did not allow."
An easy mission gone wrong leaves the commander gravely injured, and with a snow storm blocking communications with the Incognito, Tristan alone has to keep his favorite ally alive. What neither of them expected was the unshakable attachment to each other that followed.
Or, In which Tristan refuses to let the commander die, and she gives him a reason to live.

The Lab That Shouted Incoherently And Often by TrueheartZen for DanceBoheme, lame_perrier

Summary
The scientist, of course, had learned nothing, directing Shepherd to synthesize a formula within a few moments of looking at the data.
“Are you sure your calculations are correct?” They asked, standing at the synthesizer and looking over the numbers. Medicine wasn’t their area of expertise, save for detailed knowledge on nutrition macros that made even fellow fitness nerd Tristan cringe when they got on the topic.Auntie's Choice's poor lab safety guidelines strike again, leaving Tristan and the commander in a very hot and heavy crossfire.

Summary
From the moment he’d leapt off the roof of Sandrock City Hall and into their life, it had been obvious to them that the ‘Protector of Sandrock’ was a classic example about what they liked to call I.B.T.: Impressively Bad Taste. He was easy on the eyes- that was for damn sure- but he was also arrogant, vain, selfish, stupid and, if not actively cruel, at the very least a little mean-spirited.
Pen was the kind of guy to fall into a relationship because it was convenient and made him feel good. He was the kind of guy to make faces every time the subject of making things serious or official came up. He was the kind of guy to give vague excuses about it “just not being the right time” because he didn’t want to commit but still wanted the perks.
They’d known that the same way an enraged wild yakmel knew not to attack its neighbour: because the two of them were the same kind of animal.
Takes place after Sandrock Strikes Back and asks the question, "What if Pen and the builder were two bad tastes that taste worse together?"

Summary
Boone meets a mysterious courier who seems to appear just in his hour of need. A stranger with no connection to anyone or anything he's ever known. Just the kind of person he's been looking for.
The courier is a slightly-amnesiac woman who, until she remembers her name, has decided to go simply by "Six". She's always ready to lend a hand and she wears her heart on her sleeve. Who will she catch in the widely cast net of her arms? And who, of them, will stay?
Meanwhile, legends of the Burned Man echo throughout the Wasteland. Will Six ever get to see the legend herself? And what will happen, if and when she does?You can read about my Courier here (I'll get a better link soon, but for now this will have to do): ghoulvalentines.tumblr.com/caroline
