Who: the Fallout AU crew
Setting: the Commonwealth
Summary: BoS things, institute things
Warnings: Fallout warnings, smut
Other: [original notes] [first post] [second post] [third post] [fourth post] [fifth post] [sixth post] [seventh post] [eighth post]

- minor timeskip to when the BoS has its feet under it again, shaun asks riley to go up and keep an eye on them and deacon goes with
- they get assigned to a BoS squad composed of AU versions of chancellery guards (paladin archimedes o'hallan, knight-captain anthony norris, lancer-sargeant alex reyes, knight riley reynolds, knight everett wynter, knight henry "hal" saller, aspirant 'jack' "deacon" 'priest')
- maybe some minor quests involving getting to know them, gotta get some solid Bonding going
- sarrith (sarah, secret enclave remnant) and sal's romeo and juliet romance
- that one quest where you get the nukes from the glowing sea for the BoS
- wynter's mistake and gradual ghoulification and the position it puts the squad in
- blind betrayal

- shaun announces ferran officially as his successor
- ferran dealing with the short institute quests that result from that
- shaun discovering ferran's a slut and trying to talk to him about it
- zetta freaking out bc they're spending all this time waiting for her to recover and dealing with the BoS, and not having the time to try to figure out a way to save shaun
- zetta, in general, driving shaun slowly up the wall because she's cooped up and needs to be kept occupied or else Bad Things Start Happening, why is this shaun's life, this was not what he was expecting at all
- ferran going on missions with x6-88 / house divided, warwick
- nathan and zay's one night stand with ferran becoming not a one night stand any more
- at some point we need to have nathan call deacon a mongrel to his face so zetta can go positively nuclear
- zay finding out nathan is taking buffout

- build towards the railroad and institute being on better terms (not *stable*, but they need to be in a position where they're willing to make an alliance at the battle for bunker hill and afterwards to take the BoS down)
- probably need to do a meeting with dez and carrington, bc jfc (and ferran being the next director makes it easier to make negotiations on the institute's behalf though shaun probably doesnt fully trust him with that wrt the railroad yet, shaun needs to see ferran make decisions that benefit the institute OVER the railroad for that)

- mass fusion happens before battle for bunker hill, lighting a fire under the brotherhood's ass (still use it as the faction cut-off point?)
- at the battle, brotherhood wins -- keeping them a legitimate threat and serving as the push for the institute and railroad to work together against them

well, oh, it seems you're a lot like me
you dug yourself into places you never thought you would be
but don't you fret, and don't you mind
the only constant is change,
and you never know what you'll find

yeah, tomorrow i might wake up nice and clean
and i might believe the things i said i didn't mean
and this might turn and wind up just the way we'd dreamed
and i might become the things i swore i'd always be

Hmmmmm...fuck...should have listened to you earlier and done this ages ago....

[He's getting fully hard under Zetta's attention, tenting the front of his underwear.]

[capcious]

You're damn right. [She takes him in hand as best as she can with his underwear still in the way and pumps slowly.]

[ersatzeverything]

[Ohgodohgodohgodsogood.]

...right...that you're right? Always.

[That's about all the words he can manage so he bends his head down to kiss along Zetta's breast.]

[capcious]

Mmmmmhmm. [It's both an answer to his question and an encouragement. She breathes out a satisfied sigh at the feel of his lips moving across her skin, and she lifts her other hand to lightly trace along the curve of the back of his head, down to his neck.]

[ersatzeverything]

[Deacon kisses his way back up her chest and throat, making his way to her lips. He keeps it tentative, like a first (real) kiss, even as she's palming his dick and one of his hands is sneaking down her stomach to slip his fingers under the waistband of her underwear.]

[capcious]

[He's cautious with the kiss, and despite it just being part of the game, it still makes her breath stutter, even before his hand slides low on her stomach. She matches his pace, slow, light, careful, until she feels his fingers dipping under the elastic waistband of her underwear. She nips at his lower lip, then, and opens her mouth slightly to him, trying to draw him in.]

[ersatzeverything]

[Deacon deepens the kiss at Zetta's urging and slides his hand further down until he can start to finger her clit.]

[capcious]

[Finally. Zetta moans softly into his mouth, her hips arching up to his touch, encouraging, seeking more.]

[ersatzeverything]

[He rubs a bit more, then stops to push her underwear down.]

[capcious]

[Yes yes yes. She shifts to make it easier for him to pull them down as far as he's wanting to, nipping at his lips again in anticipation.]

[ersatzeverything]

[Deacon grins against her lips and then breaks the kiss so he can slither under the covers and down her body.]

Gotta make a good first impression, right?

[He says, his voice muffled by the blankets.]

[capcious]

Oh, god. [Fuck yes. ... wait, hang on. Keep it together.] And here I thought I was supposed to be the one putting something in my mouth.

[ersatzeverything]

No reason we can't both. At the same time or one after the other. You pick.

[capcious]

Mmmm, decisions, decisions. Let's go for same time. You can swap with me or stay on top, I'm fine either way.

[ersatzeverything]

[Deacon wriggles around and pops his head out from the blankets again then kicks them down and off them both.]

I vote swap.

[capcious]

[Watching him re-emerge from under the blankets is somehow adorable. If she weren't absolutely certain it'd derail the mood, she'd let him know that he did a good mole rat impression -- but, one, she doesn't want to get him started, and two, she does not want to revive that stupid joke. She shifts to the side so he can take her spot, grinning. God, but she loves sitting on his face.]

[ersatzeverything]

[Deacon lies on his back and reaches for Zetta to urge her on top of him.

As a bonus, if Riley and Ferran finish up and come looking for them, they'll get a hell of a visual.]

[capcious]

[Zetta moves without hesitation, carefully swinging her leg over his head so she can brace a knee on either side. She pushes Deacon's underwear past his hips and further down, moving it out of the way. But she doesn't immediately put her mouth on him -- she leans over and breathes across his skin.]

[ersatzeverything]

[Deacon gasps and his dick twitches in anticipation. They've been building to this for what feels like for-fucking-ever and he's so ready for her lips to be around his cock.

He reaches up to hold her hips and tilts his head to lick a broad swathe.]

[capcious]

[She groans quietly, eyes fluttering. Fuck... She angles her hips further down to give him better access. She returns what she was given, dragging her tongue along the underside of his cock from tip to base.]

[ersatzeverything]

[Deacon drops his legs open and moans. He stops his own licking for a few seconds, distracted, before returning to his task with gusto.]

[capcious]

[God, but if his reactions aren't satisfying. She grins to herself and uses a hand to brace his cock in the span of time it takes him to recover -- but then when he gets back to it, he's doubled down, and her surprised moan is louder and higher in pitch.] Fuck. [It's her time to get distracted, her hips jerking to his mouth of their own accord, and it's all she can do to grind for a moment. Fuck, fuck, fuck.]

[reformedcriminal]

[From the doorway, Ferran smirks. His hair is disheveled and his trousers are unbuttoned.]

I'd say that I'm jealous, but actually I'm feeling content to watch right now.

Carry on.

[inhonorof]

[Riley sidles up behind Ferran, looping his arms around his waist and leaning against him, resting his chin on his shoulder. But his expression shifts from curious to dumbstruck as he sees what Zetta and Deacon are up to. He can't quite keep himself from pressing his erection against Ferran. Zetta glances up at them, but until Deacon lets up, she can't muster the focus or breath to reply -- and, god, the look on her face isn't helping Riley at all. He makes a low sound.]

[reformedcriminal]

[Ferran presses back against Riley, grinding against him teasingly.]

Lovely, aren't they.

[He murmurs to Riley. Deacon flushes but doesn't stop.]
