Ellen has been fixing leaky pipes around Megaton for most of today. The work pays well and keeps her out of trouble, and gives her a chance to acclimate a little further to being under the open sky. Even though she's surrounded by walls and buildings, there's still no roof overhead. And anyway, it reminds her of home; she wouldn't have objected if the GOAT had said she was going to officially follow in Stanley's footsteps.
At the end of the day, though, Confessor Cromwell was back in front of the bomb, praying so loudly she could hear him from almost three-quarters of the way up the crater. Gob had been very apologetic about the fact that they didn't serve food when she'd stepped into Moriarty's, so much so that she felt obligated to buy a bottle or two of alcohol off him. (She'd probably use it for antiseptic. No need to tell him that.) And Wadsworth was an excellent cook, but...
Well, company that didn't hover at the other end of the room waiting for an assessment of its cooking skills would be nice. So she, and her backpack, and her armored Vault suit and all, are in Milliways tonight. She can get dinner now and talk to Moira about further Guide work in the morning. Who knows? Maybe it'll point her in her father's direction.
