I did a thing. basically how I view the relationship of lucy/charlie/cooper. (they all equally love one another btw)

Future (short) series idea

pairing: Lucifer Morningstar x Fem! Angel! Reader (I’m probably going to make different versions for each, so a Male and GN, as well)

Feedback on the idea is very much appreciated; I would love to hear y'all lovely peoples thoughts on this concept I am stuck on. Its nothing special but still, haha-

Also don’t forget, my requests are always open! Please, request, request, request! I need things to write! :D

Synopsis/General idea: Reader is one of Adam's assistants/part of the exorcist angels and Lucifer comes to visit Heaven with his daughter, Charlie Morningstar, Princess of Hell and owner of the Hazbin Hotel.

Lucifer is instantly entranced by the reader, as he recognizes them from back when he used to reside in Heaven; when he too used to be an angel all that time ago. The reader and Lucifer, when they both had been in Heaven, had snuck around and hooked up a couple times, but it had never gone public and was never intended to.

He is staring at you throughout the whole meeting with Adam and Lute, (when he's not busy glaring and making smug faces at the 'first man' from across the table), oblivious to what his daughter is preaching or trying to. The reader is well on Charlie's side and on-board with her ideas; she tried many times to convince Adam before and now, or to atleast think about it.

The reader ends up coming to hell with Lucifer and Charlie because she wants to ‘check out’ the hotel and this cooperation Charlie is trying to make with Heaven. Lucifer looks about ready to burst from excitement.

(End of part 1?)

Maybe there is a day before she comes down to hell, and not right after the meeting. Lucifer could be standing in his room in front of his mirror, trying to pep-talk himself into making a good impression on you. Charlie is possibly there to reassure her dad that he looks fine and that he won’t mess things up(again); she’s secretly so thrilled that the reader is able to make her dad feel so giddy and happy, especially after Lilith. He needs someone to keep him company and you seem like just the soul to do it. But of course there is the problem with the reader being in Heaven and Luci being in Hell; good ol’ forbidden love

Charlie ends up showing the reader around the hotel when she comes down from Heaven, and Lucifer sort of just stands by awkwardly. The reader is a bit cold towards him, but they are mainly just scared that he might disappear from their life again, and maybe even a tad resentful at him for being so stupid and doing whatever it was that made him fallen in the first place.

But then of course they end up having sex in the hotel after Charlie offered the reader a stay for the night so they didn’t need to go back to Heaven so late in the night. Make-up, angsty, lovey dovey, etc. Reader may also slip up and call him Luci a couple times instead of Lucifer; she only called him Luci back when they were both in Heaven together and good friends

Honestly- I have no fucking idea where this is going, but if anyone would be interested in reading this small series I’m coming up with, please interact/let me know! I plan to start working on it after I get some requests done. Just had to get this spew of word vomit out of my head-

HWOODALTTASK11 - SOMETHING WICKED THIS WAY COMES - PART 2.

You’ve been invited by a unnamed person to a party in a huge mansion that you’ve never noticed in town before. The party is in full swing, when suddenly you find yourself locked inside of a room with another person. You don’t know how or when the doors will open, so make the most of your time. Some of the fates have brought lovers together, some of brought drama together, some are giving those the push they need, and others are luck of the draw. 

You must have some form of interaction with the person you are paired with. This can be done in para, gif, chat or chatty form. You will have from the SATURDAY 17TH OCTOBER to SATURDAY 31ST OCTOBER to complete this. 

Your characters will remember everything that happens on this night. This is a Halloween party so feel free to post your characters costumes from now until the 31st. Also, if you did not sign up a character to the task, feel free for them to attend the Halloween party as normal!

Tag everything as hwoodalttask11 to receive activity credit. You DON’T receive activity credit for costume posting, that’s just for fun if you want to. You only receive the activity credit for the interaction posts. 

Below the cut is the list of names sorted by member (so it’s easier to find) and the room that they get locked in. There’s repeat rooms, but they’re not the same room as others are in. The only other person in the room is the person paired with them.

Alright @primatechpapers some more of my OCS are:

Kyle Smith, a teenage boy who doesn't have a power but who's good with technology. His parents had powers and were killed during a wave of anti-evo backlash. He blames Claire and builds bombs to target the people she cares about to get revenge

Jordan McGrath, a genderfluid person with the power to manipulate water (see, it's like a pun). They get hired by some shady underground operation to kill Tracy but they end up falling in love with her

Vicky Matthews, a young woman who desperately wants a power and will go to great and dangerous lengths to get one. She holds Mohinder at gunpoint to make him recreate the formula to give people powers. She gains the ability to turn things to stone, and through this she inadvertently saves Noah

Achak and Anrack, a pair of Aboriginal Canadian twin brothers. Anrack can create tentacles that he uses to destroy stuff for no real reason other than that he gets a kick out of it. Achak can observe things from any distance, but he can also hide his current location from any outside observation. Anrack manipulates Achak into working for him, and kills him when Achack refuses to cooperate (he gets better, though)

Lucy Andrews, one of Charlie's many grandkids. She loses her parents in an explosion and Hiro starts looking after her. She ends up preventing Anrack from destroying a city (don't ask how, it's a long story)

...I actually have even more OCS than that (mostly fankids and stuff) but these are all from a fic idea I have but will probably never actually write.

Announcing Winners WGA Awards 2019: ‘Can You Ever Forgive Me?,’ ‘Eighth Grade’

In a pair of upsets, “Can You Ever Forgive Me?” has won the Writers Guild of America’s adapted screenplay award for Nicole Holofcener and Jeff Whitty and Bo Burnham has won the original screenplay award for “Eighth Grade.”

The major television trophies went to “The Americans,” “The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel,” “Homeland” and “Barry” for the 71st Writers Guild Awards, held at dual ceremonies at the Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills, Calif., and the Edison Ballroom in New York City. It was the last major awards show before the Feb. 24 Academy Awards.

“Can You Ever Forgive Me?,” based on the memoir of the late Lee Israel, topped the screenplays for “Black Panther,” “If Beale Street Could Talk” “A Star Is Born”; and “BlacKkKlansman.” Though the script for the comedy-drama — the story of how Israel discovered her talent for forgery — has received an Oscar nomination, “Beale Street” and “BlacKkKlansman” were regarded as the front-runners. It appears that the tale of the travails and redemption of a professional writer clearly resonated with Hollywood writers.

“I want to thank Lee,” Holofcener said in her acceptance. “She’d probably be sitting in the room judging all of us. She though she was the smartest person in the room and she probably was.”

A stunned Burnham credited star Elsie Fisher for his winning the WGA award. Burnham won over Alfonso Cuaron’s “Roma”; Adam McKay’s “Vice”; Bryan Woods, Scott Beck, and John Krasinski’s “A Quiet Place”; and Peter Farrelly, Nick Vallelonga, and Brian Currie’s “Green Book.” “Roma,” “Vice” and “Green Book” are all nominated for Academy Awards along with “The Favourite” and “First Reformed” while “Eight Grade” did not receive an Oscar nod.

“Eighth Grade,” which stars Fisher as an awkward teen dealing with the final week of eighth grade, also won the first-time Directors Guild of America Award for Burnham on Feb. 2. The film is also up for four Spirit Awards on Feb. 23.

“To the other nominees in the category — Have fun at the Oscars, losers!” Burnham joked in his acceptance. “No, I prepared nothing. This all belongs to Elsie Fisher who performed the script. No one would care about the script if she hadn’t done it.”

“Eighth Grade” is the first film to win the WGA Original Screenplay award without being nominated for an Academy since Michael Moore’s “Bowling for Columbine” in 2003.

“The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel” won the comedy series award for Kate Fodor, Noah Gardenswartz, Jen Kirkman, Sheila Lawrence, Daniel Palladino and Amy Sherman Palladino. Starring Rachel Brosnahan, “Mrs. Maisel” won the Emmy for best comedy series last year.

The final season of “The Americans” took the drama series award for Peter Ackerman, Hilary Bettis, Joshua Brand, Joel Fields, Sarah Nolen, Stephen Schiff, Justin Weinberger, Joe Weisberg and Tracey Scott Wilson.

Bill Hader and Alec Berg won the episodic comedy award for the opening segment of HBO’s “Barry,” “Chapter One: Make Your Mark” (“Barry”). They also won the new series award.

Stephanie Gillis won the animated award for the “Bart’s Not Dead” episode of “The Simpsons” — which was just renewed for its 31st and 32nd seasons by Fox — and showrunner Alex Gansa took the episodic drama award for the “Paean To The People” segment of “Homeland.” “Bathtubs Over Broadway” took the documentary award and “God of War” won the videogame trophy.

Hulu’s “Castle Rock” won the long-form original award and “The Assassination of Gianni Versace: American Crime Story” took the adapted long-form trophy. “Last Week Tonight with John Oliver” won the comedy-variety series cagtegory.

Chelsea Peretti hosted the West Coast ceremonies while Roy Wood Jr. was the emcee in New York. “All the glitz and glamor of the Oscars without the pressure of public interest,” Peretti said in her intro.

Jordan Peele’s horror-comedy “Get Out” won the WGA Award for original screenplay and James Ivory’s coming-of-age drama “Call Me by Your Name” won for adapted screenplay last year. Both went on to win the Oscar.

The WGA awards are mixed indicator of Oscar sentiment. Six of the last 10 WGA winners have gone on to win Academy awards over the past five years. The awards are decided in voting by the 17,000 members of the WGA.

The West Coast ceremonies included plenty of political commentary. Adam McKay, on receiving the WGA’s Paul Selvin Award for “Vice,” asked for a “beat of silence” for the million people who died during the invasion of Iraq.

Jenji Kohan, recipient of the Paddy Chayefsky Award, was unable to attend due to having to shoot the final episode of “Orange Is the New Black.” She said in a taped message: “I’ve been incredibly lucky to work with enormously funny and kind people. I love the people I work with. Life is too short to work with a******s, by the way. That’s my Public Service Announcement.”

Tag Game

@trisscar368 tagged me in this one, and it sounds like it’s either going to be a lot of fun or going to drive me insane, so here we go

Number your favorite characters from one fandom (in any order) 1-12

Fandom choice: Supernatural (up to season 9, because I only know about the rest from gifs so far)

Lucifer

Sam Winchester

Dean Winchester

Crowley

Gabriel

Charlie Bradbury

Kevin Tran

Benny

Castiel

Meg Masters

Balthazar

Death

1. If you wrote a fic about Four, what song would you use to inspire you?

I’m bad at this song inspiration thingy. But maybe Sex, Death, And Money by Alice Cooper.

2. One/Nine and Six/Ten, Which pairing is happier?

Lucifer/Castiel wouldn’t be very happy, I think, but Charlie/Meg would (I ship it).

3. Have you ever read a fic about Seven/Twelve?

No. I don’t know, if Kevin/Balthazar exists, but it may be interesting.

4. FMK, but with extra options (to finish off the remaining numbers).

Choices: Fuck, Marry, Kill, Adopt, Live With and Fight. Choose from numbers One, Two, Three, Five, Eight, Eleven.

Argh! Okay … this’ll be bad … Fuck: Lucifer (you know, the tongue …) Marry: Sam Winchester (even though I’ll most likely end up dead) Kill: Bathazar (sorry, but you’re already dead) Adopt: Gabriel (I heard he likes to take the form of a corgi ;-) ) Live With: Dean Winchester (won’t get Sam without his brother anyway) Fight: Benny (at least I’ll probably win this one since I have both Winchesters on my side)

5. Any favorite fic moments for Four?

There’s this fic with Crowley and Cas trying to get some artifact or something, but they both get stuck in a trap and bitch at each other, until the Winchesters get them out.

6. What tags/warnings would be included in a One/Twelve fic?

Luci and Death? Sooo much blood and murder. I imagine this as something set during the apocalypse. And if it’s supposed to be something a bit more dirty, there’d probably be a warning along the lines of “dubious use of binding spell".

7. What would Eight say if they saw Six and Nine kissing?

What would Benny say, if he saw Charlie and Cas kissing? Since it’s Charlie that would have to be female Cas, and that’s pretty hot. I don’t see Benny complaining.

Last Question! Make up a summary for a fic including Two, Three and Eleven.

Balthazar decides that unsinking ships is a lot of fun and undoes history’s most famous shipwrecks one by one. Sam and Dean have to stop him, before no one can remember any more which ships are supposed to sink and which ones aren’t.

10 Rom-Coms to Stream from Your Couch This Weekend

New Post has been published on http://funnythingshere.xyz/10-rom-coms-to-stream-from-your-couch-this-weekend/

10 Rom-Coms to Stream from Your Couch This Weekend

A lot of current events have been hitting hard lately, and while it’s important to be aware and engaged, sometimes we need time for ourselves to just unwind and relax. What better way to do that than with some films that make you laugh and smile? Here’s a list of some of the best romantic comedies right now that you can stream from the comfort of your couch.

Yes, everyone’s been talking about this film, and for good reason! It’s a witty, well-written movie about two executive assistants who decide to matchmake their demanding bosses in the hopes that romance will soften their personalities. The film features Lucy Liu and Taye Diggs as the insufferable bosses, and also has some genuine chemistry between the assistants, played by Zoey Deutch and Glen Powell. The film was so well-received that people are already asking about a sequel just two weeks after it’s debut.

Candy Jar is another Netflix Original, and it’s an intriguing film that brings you into the world of high school debate clubs. That sounds boring, I know, but director Ben Shelton teaches you the ins-and-outs of this world in a way that’s both amusing and actually educational. The two characters at the center of this film are Jacob Latimore’s Bennett and Sami Gayle’s Lona—bitter enemies from opposite sides of the track who realize that maybe they’re better when they work together.

Jessica Williams found fame as the young, sharp correspondent on The Daily Show, and The Incredible Jessica James is her first major foray into being a film lead. The film itself feels more like a series of humorous vignettes than a feature length, but Williams puts in a strong performance as Jessica, a struggling playwright whose dry humor hops between painfully cynical and endearingly optimistic. She’s paired up with Chris O’Dowd, whose perpetually laid-back, awkward line delivery is a good complement to William’s quick wit.

A Chinese film from director Derek Hui, This Is Not What I Expected is, well, an unexpectedly funny film. It tells the story of a disastrously clumsy chef, Gu Sheng Nan, and a rich, arrogant hotel acquirer, Lu Jin. The film features some genuinely gorgeous food cinematography, as well as some pretty funny gags—at one point someone falls off a roof, and then later someone accidentally eats improperly prepared blowfish, leading to a hallucinatory episode.

Sweet, neurotic Alex is consumed by thoughts of still being a virgin, and he can’t quite figure out why he feels he feels as much love for girlfriend as he feels attraction to this boy he just met at a party. There’s unfortunately not a ton of queer rom-com options out there, so I’d be lying if I said that Alex Strangelove is entirely without drama and heartbreak. It is a funny, quirky film that ends on a happy note though, and thankfully it never features Daniel Doheny’s Alex getting bullied.

Listen, if you haven’t seen this film yet, you must. It has Preacher’s Dominic Cooper as the cheerful fiance, and features Stellan Skarsgård, Pierce Brosnan, and Colin Firth as just generally embarrassing dad figures. Mamma Mia! tells the story of Sophie, a bride-to-be who invites three men to her wedding in the hopes of figuring out who is her real father—much to the chagrin of her mother. No one will judge you if you end up singing alongside Meryl Streep to every ABBA song in this, no one.

Lasse Hallström’s Casanova is an underrated gem, both smart and clever, and with numerous surprising actor cameos. Taking place in 18th century Venice, it features Heath Ledger as Casanova and Daredevil’s Charlie Cox as his socially awkward rival then protege. Casanova matches wits with Sienna Miller’s Francesca Bruni, who writes illegal feminist books under a male pseudonym. It’s a tale rife with humor, romance, mistaken identities, and uptight clergymen determined to wipe out Casanova’s philandering and Francesca’s feminine rebellions.

The entire Bridget Jones’s series is notable in that it’s only the second Hollywood movie trilogy to be directed entirely by women (following behind the Wachowski’s Matrix trilogy). The film itself is a very obvious interpretation of Austen’s Pride and Prejudice, but Renée Zellweger’s Bridget is a riotous spin on Elizabeth Bennet. She’s crass, struggles with her weight and outfits, and just all around feels too old and unattractive to possibly snag a guy—that is, until she does.

A classic feel-good film that’s a modern remix of both George Bernard Shaw’s Pygmalion play and George Cukor’s film My Fair Lady. (Translation: an arrogant dude transforms an “average” girl into a high-class beauty.) Rachael Leigh Cook wears a pita on her head. Freddie Prinze Jr. does interpretive song and dance. And the late Paul Walker is there, acting like a jerk, in one of his earliest film roles. What’s not to like?

I know, it’s a Joss Whedon film, but if you can look past your conflicted (or just flat out negative) feelings about him, this modern day adaptation of Shakespeare’s play is pretty decent. Nathan Fillion plays the comically useless Dogberry, who wears a ridiculously short tie throughout. There’s also Clark Gregg there as Leonato, and Alexis Denisof makes a charming and amusing Benedick.

I want to make an old hollywood au for lucy'charlie/cooper.....i want that. 🧍‍♀️

lucy/charlie/cooper - wasteland lovers, vacation au.

in which three people happen to go on the same vacation at the same time, meet one another AND a romance ensues between them. hi, hello! I wanted to make another little moodboard for these three, this time a vacation au one for them because I think it'd be super fun if they all met while on vacation and all that! hope y'all enjoy.

wasteland lovers: lucy/charlie/cooper relationship headcanons, fallout (tv).

summary: as the tile suggests, these are headcanons for the poly relationship between my fallout oc, charlie alongside lucy maclean and cooper howard!

warnings: 18+, minors dni. wlw relationships + f/m relationships. f/f/m relationships. poly dynamics. fluff. mentions of swearing. semi-smut (kinda?? i don't go into full on detail but it's there).

notes: these were super fun to make and I hope to make more for these three in the future, hope y'all enjoy!

wasteland lovers, fallout tag.

First things first: top or bottom? I headcanon Lucy to be somewhat of a switch, Charlie is a top but doesn't mind being submissive here and there and Cooper's a full-on top.

The two biggest tropes in this relationship include love at first sight and enemies to lovers. The former is between Charlie and Lucy, Charlie had heart eyes for the vault dweller from the moment she entered the shop and the ladder is with Charlie and Cooper, such a hot head Cooper was with her.

While Charlie and Lucy got along great, it was hard for Charlie and Cooper as they'd bicker 24/7, it was practically their love language for a time.

The first time Charlie confessed her feelings for Lucy was during a shootout oddly enough, think like the chaotic marriage between Elizabeth and Will in POTC. It wasn't ideal but, it was so worth it for the two.

Charlie's love confession for Cooper was quite the opposite, calm funnily enough. Overtime, Cooper warmed up to both she and Lucy and Charlie had realized that and figured it'd be a perfect time to tell Coop how she really felt about him.

It was during a night watch, Charlie couldn't sleep while Lucy was sleeping like a baby. Cooper was the one to keep watch and decided to join him which later turned into her confessing her feelings.

Cooper didn't think he'd ever love again but, it did happen with both Charlie and Lucy.

Cooper has pet names for both the girls, those being: My girls, Sweetheart, Darlin', the usual. Charlie will go for calling Cooper Coop and Lucy 'Luc at times.

Both Cooper and Charlie are big spoons while Lucy is a little spoon though, she does like being big spoon with Charlie from time to time.

Charlie sometimes likes to wear Cooper's hat, she think it looks sweet on her (Cooper and Lucy couldn't agree more).

Love Languages? Charlie's is physical touch, Lucy's is affirmations and Cooper's is a mixture of physical touch and quality time (the last one especially the more he grows fond of the two women).

Charlie loooooves giving cheek and forehead kisses, Lucy likes the cheek kisses and Cooper prefers neck and regular mouth kisses.

Lucy likes wearing Charlie's jacket from time to time, if she's off on a supply run on her own or just feels like wearing it, it reminds her that she has a part of Charlie with her, she too also likes wearing Cooper's hat here and there.

The girls love holding each other's hands no matt what is they're doing or wear they are, they'll hold onto each other's hands.

Both girls don't mind PDA but Cooper's a little eh about it, he's possessive of the two and if PDA is involved, it's usually as a way of showing that they're his women, other than that he usually prefers private displays of affection.

Lucy likes to hug her partners from behind, it comforts both Charlie and Cooper.

While Cooper does get hot-headed, it's usually Charlie that calms him down easily. She knows what it's like to get easily frustrated and worked up but overtime, she's gotten better at trying to stay calm and she passes that calmness to Cooper.

If there's a nice, non-poisonous lake, Charlie and Lucy will usually bathe there together, they'll laugh and clean each other off and just stay in the presence of each other.

Charlie and Lucy also like to clean up each other's wounds and bandage each other up. Coop will also engage in bandaging the two up from time to time.

As mentioned earlier, Cooper can get quite possessive, he's VERY possessive of his girls. If someone bats an eye or even dares to think about touching his girls, he's on their asses quite quickly.

While Lucy is more a what the fudge kind of girl, both Charlie and Cooper have quite the mouth of cusses from fuck, shit, motherfucker, etc.

Cooper has a rope kink through and through, need I say more.

Cooper does catch the girls touching themselves and each other from time to time and, when he does, they're in for a wild night.

He loves giving them dirty talk.

He'll worship their bodies like crazy and is only soft around them, he'll praise the hell out of them too.

Calling them 'good girls' as he rawdogs them into oblivion.

He's into soft BDSM with them as well, that is if they can find the right stuff to work with. they do manage.

Afterwards, both Charlie and Cooper will cuddle into him, he allows it and doesn't mind.

Overall, the three work well together as a poly couple, they balance each other out and equal love is spilt all around.

notes: this probably isn't the best but I had fun writing these headcanons out and, as stated earlier, I hope to do more headcanons for these three in the future. anywho! feel free to spill your thoughts below if you'd like or whatever!

hope you guys enjoyed! <33

lucy x charlie (oc) x cooper/the ghoul - wasteland lovers, fallout.

wasteland lovers, fallout tag.

girl, i feel like i'm being so annoying with all the asks and for flooding your inbox but here i am again 😅

how does cooper waltz in to lucy, charlie and cass's lives in the pre-war au?

First of all: NONSENSE! like I said, girl, send in ANY AND ALLLLLL QUESTIONS regarding these three! I'm literally having so much fun talking about them.

Secondly, I'm absolutely GLAD you asked as I was literally talking about this last night with a mutual of mine (shoutout to @cloudofbutterflies92) and it's literally SO CUTE how he waltz's into their lives.

So, Cooper does still have Janey although he's divorced from Barb (Y'ALL DON'T COME FOR ME, I love Barb okay!). Anywho! The way he waltz into their life in the pre-war AU is that Cooper bumps into Charlie first when she's picking up Cass from school, the same school that Lucy works at as a teacher meaning she's also waiting on Lucy as well! Charlie is the first to notice Cooper, she knows how he's a big star and all but she's humble about it, all "Oh! I know you, although I wouldn't say you're the BIGGEST star of our time!" because she's a tease like that haha.

Both of the two do formally introduce themselves to one another though and it goes really smoothly. The moment that Cass and Lucy walk out is a game changer because Cooper sees the softest side of Charlie ever, all smiles when Cass runs to her and when Lucy comes by to hug her and give her a big ol' kiss on the cheek. Lucy notices Cooper and is all "who might this be, sweetie?" to which Charlie mentions that it's THE Cooper Howard. Cooper also introduces himself to Lucy and seeing how they are with Cass reminds him of how he is with Janey, all sweet and adorable!

so yeah, in short: he waltz's into their life at the very place the women's daughter goes for school!

little bonus: Cooper meets Charlie one other time at random when he casually walks into her shop where she's fixing up some shelves and it's so cute!!! he's all "I didn't know you worked here?" and she's all "I own it, mister 😌" haha.

anyways, sorry for how long this turned out to be akdkdoels

(also imagine how cute it'd be for little cass and janey to interact!)

okay! this is just quick (but messy) lore on my new fallout oc: charlie beckett + her relationship to both lucy and cooper.

hope you enjoy!

**NOTE: Charlie is Pansexual/Poly.**

**SECOND NOTE: height difference goes crazy. lucy is 5'5, charlie is 5'7-5'8 and Cooper is 5'10.**

As the days went on of Charlie’s journey, she knew she’d have to make a pit stop eventually and camp out for a night or two. Luckily, she came across an abandoned shop just outside of a city: Filly. Charlie figured this would be the perfect time camp out in the place for the night HOWEVER, she had other ideas. If she could make a life for herself in the shop, she could make it a little home and a little shop at the same time and so, she did just that! Now, at the age of 24, Charlie has had quite the makeover for the shop and became a shopkeeper herself. Selling weapons, scraps and little supplies, she was doing pretty well for herself! That was until the two people that came just outside of filly would change her life forever: Lucy Maclean and Cooper “The Ghoul” Howard. 

Charlie Beckett was born post-war, a bit after the war ended. She was settled into a vault once she was born, seemingly orphaned essentially, her parents dying of an unknown cause (back to that later). Growing up, she had to learn things on her own, yes there were other vault dwellers to help but she mostly took it upon herself to learn on her own from fighting, learning how to use weapons properly, etc.

Charlie’s vault has water supply that usually keeps the vault dwellers going, they have one of the biggest tanks of it however, when vault dwellers start getting sick suddenly, Charlie decides to investigate further, wanting to know if there’s a secret the vault is hiding, which they are! The water used for other vault dwellers started making them act crazy, making them go berserk. She didn’t know at the time but, Charlie’s parents’ death was due to the water itself. They were gaining the effects of it, one day at a time therefore, they had no choice but to leave her behind to make sure not to watch as they slowly went crazy outside the vault. Once finding out about this big secret, Charlie had to figure out a way to escape the vault and find herself on her own. The vault usually tasks someone, once they’re old enough, to get more water supply every other week when they start running out. During Charlie’s lucky task day, she decides to run away from the vault and start fending for herself.

Lucy was a vault dweller who had decided to stop by on her way into Filly, the two got along great and it wound up being love at first sight for Charlie, almost. She’d wished Lucy had stayed longer but didn’t want to stop her journey so, the two said their goodbyes and went on with their day. Cooper was a different story, he’s a ghoul, a stubborn one at that. He, too, was making his way towards Filly when he decided to hit up the store. He and Charlie didn’t get off on the right foot, even telling Charlie to “Be careful with that tone, sweetheart” before he, too, went on with his day. It wasn’t until later that same day that she’d wind up bumping into the both of them again during a shootout within the town itself. 

This prompts a poly relationship between three and boom! Poly power couple of the wasteland.

All three were surprised to encounter each other again, Charlie staying during the shootout, mostly helping Lucy head into safety somewhere. She didn’t want to leave the shop behind but Lucy was sweet and she couldn’t help herself. She had Cooper to thank, too, as he did wind up saving her also. The more Charlie took a look at him the more she found him handsome, even if he was a ghoul. However, she stuck with Lucy for the time being. Eventually while spending enough time together, Charlie and Lucy get close and a romance is formed, a loving and sweet one.

The two bump into Cooper/The Ghoul for a final time, bringing them in with him on their journey. While with him, Charlie also gains feelings for him, it’s complicated at first but she has eyes for him. Cooper figures it out quite easily, and a moment between him and Charlie by a campfire prompts him to realize he cares for the woman, he cares for Lucy too despite how stubborn he is when they’re around. Charlie soon admits her feelings to him while also explaining to Lucy how much she truly loves both her and Cooper. She explains the same to Cooper, admitting to how she loves both of them, she feels equal love. 

I think the first time Cooper truly realized that both Charlie and Lucy were his and that he had truly softened up to them was simply listening to them cracking jokes by the bonfire with him and just opening up alongside him.

it'd been so long since he actually felt that way and that night, something shifted within him, he truly felt loved after a long while.

Also! I don't think I've ever been in-depth about Charlie confessing her feelings to Cooper, so imma do that now!

(below the cut because this got a bit long lol)

So, these two are legit enemies to lovers. They get off on the wrong foot at the beginning and they just won't stop bickering and shouting at one another haha, poor Lucy 😭😭😭. However, as time goes on, it's evident that Charlie does calm herself around Cooper and just really starts to go soft on him, even if it takes Cooper some time to do the same with her (at first).

The moment Charlie officially realized that these feelings for the ghoulified cowboy weren't going away was when he had literally taken the chance to risk himself for her during a shootout, insisting on saving her. She was surprised and had never in million years had thought that a man like him would ever be willing to do that for someone like her.

To set the scene as to how she confesses, It would take place during a bonfire, Lucy is fast asleep while Cooper and Lucy are out just chilling and keeping watch. Charlie would soon say something along the lines of "You may not believe it, Coop but, I've come to realize that...I've liked you for a while now and I can't keep hiding it anymore."

Cooper would be taken aback for a moment, insisting "I'm not capable of love, sweetheart. That part me left a long fuckin' time ago, you don't want to love me." To which Charlie insists that that's not true, far from it. She knows there's still a part of Cooper that's willing to be in love again, his humanity isn't too far gone despite the man that he's become today. At this point too, the both of them are at their most vulnerable with each other, their showing sides to them that they've never necessarily shown eachother before and I think it's one of those things that really brings the two together. Charlie refers back to the shootout, asking why? Why did he decide on risking himself for her (and Lucy too) when he could've left her for dead?

Cooper would make up a bullshit answer before standing up and being all "Because a part of me cares, dammit! I can't stand the idea of having you quit on me, on us, Lucy and I, I know how much it'd hurt Lucy if I left you out there alone.""It'd hurt you too, Coop." "You're fucking right it would. Y'know, I couldn't fucking stand you at first, we both know this but....I grew to care, darlin' and I need you here with me for who knows how long, I want you here with me, both you and Lucy because I can't stand the thought of leaving y'all both behind, Charlie.

I do believe that's where their first kiss would play out too, Charlie would be the one to go in first before Coop follows. They'd tell Lucy about it the next day as well, or maybe Lucy would say something along the lines of, "I heard more bickering from you two last night, something up?" To which they'd explain and yada yada yada.

From that moment forward, the two would finally become a pair and, ofc, a poly relationship would form as well considering how quick it is that Cooper confesses his love to Lucy first before the whole confession between him and Charlie. (i love these three so much OH MY GODDDD)
