• Recommended by SSgt_LuLZ
• Status: Ongoing
• Crossover with: Fallout: New Vegas
• Synopsis: I'd been many things in my travels. Courier, prospector, trader, mechanic, assassin, lobotomite... you name it. But I never expected to become the teacher of a bunch of bulletproof, trigger-happy angels in a city untainted by the horrors of the Wasteland.

Despite the MC's OP nature, the slight wackiness of Fallout does make its way into the Blue Archive setting which results in great interactions between the Courier and a lot of the girls.
