"I care about them, you know. The people of the Commonwealth," he says.
She meets his eyes, and in that moment, she looks so much like Sarah his heart aches. Her hand finds his own, fingers intertwining. "I know."

The war the Brotherhood fights against the Institute cannot be won alone, and Elder Arthur Maxson does not know what to do. They outnumbered, outgunned, and they fight a foe whose face they've never seen. But just when he thinks that all hope is lost, there she stands at the centre of it all, radiant, defiant, and far too perfect for this world gone mad.
The woman out of time. Their only hope.
But Eleanor Ridley is the spitting image of Sarah Lyons, and just being with her is like losing Sarah all over again.

Nick Valentine is the head detective of Valentine's Detective Agency in Diamond City. Nick is a synth, created by the institute with an implanted personality of the Nick Valentine that lived over 200 years ago, before the great war.
Y/N is a vault dweller, from Vault 111. She and her family were cryogenically frozen when the bombs dropped. During their time in the Vault, her husband was murdered and her son kidnapped.
Nick and Y/N partner up to work the Agency's cases and fight crime, but to hopefully find Y/N's son.
Will they stay as "just partners"? Is this just a professional relationship?
