This is my second time reading this... I still think it's so beautiful

So sappy and so good... Loved it!

So glad she ended up with Vulpes.

Just found this wonderful gem. Love the ending! Absolutely fantastic :)

It's been 4 years, and every time I read this story, I still cry. It's inspired me so many times and I honestly can't describe how much I love it. Must've read this at least 30 times. It's very beautifully written, isn't over-descriptive, and the way you wrote Vulpes just makes me sob. So much beauty. I personally am glad you didn't post the sad ending, because I believe that this is the way it should've ended, with her and Vulpes. Always. I did realize this last time reading through, that Vulpes doesn't recognize Ulysses. If I'm not mistaken, shouldn't he at least be familiar with his voice or background? Regardless, this is just so goddamn perfect. Thank you so very very much for giving the world this beautiful story.

You should have posted the alternate ending. I think it probably would have been more true to the story.

Omg I love you! best Vulpes fan fic I've read so far! ️️️️

"Discovered" this fic about a week and a half ago, and read it in an hour. Doesn't mean I didn't love just about every word (crazy-fast reading skills for the win). And, ever since, something just keeps bringing me back to it. You have a lovely and restrained hand when it comes to dialogue; Vulpes' "What?" at the very end (since it's staring me in the face right now) is, in my humble opinion, up there with Han Solo's "I know." Just perfect for his character, and a perfect payoff for the very first beat of the opening chapter.

That being said, I am dying to know what the "unhappy" ending is.

okay, I know this is old, but it's my new favorite fic 8'T the pacing is flawless and just. ugH it's so perfect I can't even

I fuckin' love this story. It's so classy. The detail in it is just juicy enough that it shows instead of tells, forcing the reader to use their own imagination. I still experience a bit of feels in the chapter where Vulpes attempts to kill the Courier. And the ending, omg, is so perfect. This is my fifth time reading it, btw.

so touching. the entire saga is wonderful. love the boone/courier angle. love how vulpes even while knowing he's evil, still wants the best for the courier. love it. i think this is the third time i have read it and it still delights me. great job.

Oh mah gawd! What a dreadfully amazing story! Jeezus! xD

sigh For some reason, I was seriously rooting for Boone. I mean, Vulpes, of course, has my heart and everything.. But for this particular fic, eh, I wish she would have stayed with Craig. Mind posting the alternate ending, perhaps? Or is it way too late? xD
Anyways, I'm a sucker for bad or bittersweet endings. I dunno. Leaves more of an impact in my head most of the time than the happy ones. But that would leave me in the minority, right? D: sigh

Enough of my sulking, though. This rocked my world. Your writing is so brief, short, clipped, sweet, and meaningful. Sometimes poetic, sometimes not. It's a rollercoaster of emotion. I just love it so much.

Hope you haven't stopped writing for the Fallout fandom! jeez You're just genius at it. INCREDIBLE work, and, of course, thanks so much for sharing. :3

God I love this fic

Your story has potential, despite its short chapters. You make their conversations interesting and pace your story appropriately. I very much enjoyed the flow of the story up until Boone's feelings are somehow reciprocated by the Courier. You didn't really shed much-needed light into what the Courier is feeling or thinking about regarding her responsiveness to Boone's attentions. Did she pause and think that her actions are a betrayal to what she and Vulpes had vowed to each other? Did she think about whom she loves more and realize that she might be stringing the less-loved one to roller-coaster ride leading to inevitable hurt? Did she feel guilty at all?
I think you might've lacked a bit of psychology as well as a little more depth to your Courier's character, considering the events that unfolded chapter after chapter. The elements and instances that presented themselves when Boone entered the picture required further understanding of your Courier's nature. The reader understands that the courier is a saint, pure of heart and soul, but what else? What other characteristics did she have? What made her welcome Vulpes's attentions in the first place, considering he stands against everything she believed? What made her welcome the death Vulpes would eventually deliver to her? What made her welcome Boone's advances? What made her love Boone? What made her love Vulpes?
Basically, what I'm saying is that the reader must know your Courier. The reader must know her motivations, thoughts and inner struggles, her strengths and her weaknesses. This is because the Courier is not a definite character in the game and is only personified by the player's actions and words. So, ultimately, the player (or the author, in your case) decides who the Courier is. With the reader well-acquainted with the Courier the author wanted to portray in the story, the chapters would be more satisfying to read and the ending would be in its sweetest.

Well... that's my opinion anyway. Hope you'll consider this as constructive and not destructive.
I don't usually review but I feel like this one's worth stopping and taking my sweet time on the review box.
Thank you for the story and have a nice day! :)
