Fics like Sunshine

Charlie Winters has always had a knack for getting into places she doesn't belong. It's what makes her so good at her job as an investigative journalist - no secret is safe from her prying eyes or dogged determination. She has no family and lives in isolation, dedicating herself to her work with a sort of manic fanaticism, but comes from a tangled nest of personal ties - a debt owed to David Sarif and a vendetta against Bob Page. It was only a matter of time before she crossed paths with Adam Jensen, and when she breaks into Milwaukee Junction during the Purity First attack hoping for a big scoop, she becomes irrevocably involved in the search for Sarif's kidnapped scientists. Jensen is intense and abrasive and larger-than-life and at first Charlie feels so out of her depth it's like she's drowning. But the deeper they go into the investigation the more her personal ties keep popping up and she and Jensen seem to fit together like two weird, fucked-up puzzle pieces and she learns she's capable of things she never imagined and it becomes very clear that she's never belonged anywhere more than with him. Stronger together, and a real threat to the Illuminati - their fight will be unending, but they were built for it.
