    Summary

    “Look at me,” his hands cradled her face and reluctantly she opened her eyes, “this isn’t your fault.” The fierceness still lingered in his muddy browns, “I’ll burn down the entire Commonwealth if he lays a hand on you again.”

    She almost had the decency to smile at his conviction, except she was reminded, “You don’t have the luxury of making that promise.”

    Sometimes doing the right thing means sacrificing a part of yourself.

    In the wake of the events at the Listening Post, Sole Survivor Jacqueline struggles with the consequences of her choices. While Danse is prepared to let the Commonwealth burn on his path to seek righteousness for not only himself, but for the woman he has devoted his life to.

    *In canon, Danse never gets redemption. I seek to fill in the holes and give him the closure he deserves*

    I think about them always. But if it isn't blatantly obvious, I won't be finishing this. What most people don't know is, I sought to write Maxson a proper redemption arc. I wanted something different from the BoS that the game COULD have given us but didn't. I recently read through all my writing and it seems silly now. But man I had fun. If anyone is still out there, hi! And hope you are well!
