    Summary

    Arthur Maxson is a young man with a very important and very stressful job. His mental energy is exhausted by his responsibilities. His physical energy by a punishing fitness regime. His... baser needs tend to end up taking a back seat.

    Sometimes, though, it all just gets too much. That's why he's walking through the gates of Diamond City with a knitted hat pulled down over his ears and his overly-distinctive coat stuffed into a bag. Just an anonymous drifter, in town for a few hours.

    What could possibly go wrong?

    Summary

    At the end of the world you have so few friends left. What will you do when you end up alone again?

    Or

    How you come to Jackson and fall into a complicated relationship with Joel Miller.

     

    “You lost?”

     

    That voice. That same low, languid, gravelly husk that you had heard the previous night, now with an edge of a challenge to it breaks into your thoughts and demands your undivided attention.

     

    You whirl around again, look back in the direction of where you have just been walking and see him – tall, imposing and as broad as ever. Ruggedly Handsome is exiting the front yard of one of the houses, looking down at the cuffs of his coat and adjusting them, as if he has just put the garment on. The gesture itself is casual but you can see the coiled tension in his shoulders. If he doesn't like your answer, you can expect to be challenged on who you are and why you're here.

     

    “Not lost. Just new,” you reply after gathering your composure.

    Summary

    After leaving the Fireflies, you ended up in the settlement of Jackson with Tommy, unwilling to part with the only friend you had left. You were even able to carve somewhat of a life out for yourself after a few years.

    Until Tommy's older brother shows up. You think Joel Miller is gruff and rude, and you're pretty sure he doesn't have a fond opinion of you either. That doesn't stop the attraction you feel for each other, but he's gone in a day. You settle back into a routine, thinking you'll never see him again.

    Then Joel returns a few months later, and screws up everything about the comfortable life you had established in Jackson.

    Summary

    It’s Ellie who notices you first, halfway into their first year in Jackson.

    “Did you know that one weird mute lady down the street makes bread?” she demands as she storms into the living room, clutching a wrapped loaf of bread. “And she just gives it away?”

    “She ain’t weird just ‘cause she don’t talk, Ellie,” Joel sighs wearily as he sits up on the couch he had been sprawled across.

    “Okay, she’s weird ‘cause she keeps to herself, then.” Ellie aims a raised eyebrow back at him. “Sound familiar?”

    [In which Joel helps his quiet neighbor open Jackson's first bakery, and she makes fast friends with Ellie by plying her with baked goods.]

    Summary

    Joel couldn’t say the real reason he needed Sarah to stay home that night. You were in a fucking sundress with a ribbon in your hair. A goddamn ribbon. And you’d been cooking, the whole house smelled like heaven and you were in a fucking sundress with a goddamn ribbon in your hair and now he was going to be home alone with you all night.
    Not that anything was going to happen. Nothing was going to happen. Not a damn thing.

    ***

    You're a college student in Austin, Texas, who gets a summer job nannying Sarah Miller. It's not long before her dad sees you as more than a babysitter - or more than a friend. But life - and an apocalypse - have other plans.
