Summary
“When I first met you, you were…intimidating, to say the least. But I liked the way you smiled at me,” she admit like she was shy, her doe–eyes trained on the dirt floor.
“You like my yellow–ass teeth?” he bared his teeth in a mocking smile as wide as he could, deciding it’d be funny watching her try to come up with something nice to say.
“I like your yellow–ass teeth!” She echoed unflinchingly with a small smile and eyes glittering, befitting some kind of cartoon princess. Like Snow–fuckin’–White.
“Huh. Will wonders ever cease,” he huffed in amusement. “What else you like, princess?”
Five things the Ghoul doesn't understand about Lucy Maclean, and one thing he does for certain.

Summary
—“You’re giving up your pretty ‘future of America’ for a monst—”
—She grasped him at the back of the neck, nails biting in with warning. “We’re in the new world, and this is how I want to walk in it. With you.”
—In the growing heat, with the rads churning around them and through Lucy’s blood, Cooper bent to the imagined taste of chems on her tongue.
After all is said and done with their families and with Vault-Tec, Lucy chooses to ghoulify herself to be with Cooper. For 40 years, they work their way through the wasteland, as civilization blooms again. A job gone wrong lands them in an abandoned vault with no escape. As their vials run out and they skid toward feral, Lucy, ever determined, won’t take the last one.
A vault was the refuge Cooper was denied, and a vault was where Lucy was to spend her entire life. They chose the surface together, but this vault will be their mausoleum—a last choice made hand-in-hand.

Summary
He wonders if she can still see color, or if her world faded back to black and white once he became… this. Course then again, he don’t really want to know. He ain’t sure which of the answers available would be worse.
“What's so funny?”
“Ain’t nothin’ funny no more, sweetheart.”
Other than soulmates. That shits fuckin’ hilarious. So damn funny he could just about shoot himself.
If Lucy’s world ain’t black and white already, that’d be sure to do it.
or
Cooper Howard had a soulmate before the war, but when the bombs fell she was ripped away from him along with everything else.
His dog, his daughter, his morality.
Two hundred years later they meet again in some backwater little bullshit town on opposite ends of an altercation. And she fucking shoots him.
