Story of the Century

"Look, I gotta go get settled in, but, um, stop by my office later. I have an idea for an article that you would be perfect for."

- Piper

Story of the Century is a side quest in Fallout 4.

Detailed walkthrough
The quest will trigger after arriving to Diamond City for the first time and after finishing speaking with Piper and Mayor McDonough. Piper will suggest you visit her office at Publick Occurrences for an interview. When you are conducting the interview, there are no right or wrong answers. There are only about four or five questions (depending on your answers). Piper will become immediately available as a companion following the interview.

Rewards

 * Piper as a companion.
 * Nat will give a copy of the paper with the interview the following in-game day.

Bugs

 * If deciding to put off this quest until after rescuing Valentine, Piper will become the companion and the Sole Survivor will not be able to do this quest because Piper will only give the option to be the player character's follower. To complete the quest at this point the Sole Survivor will need to ask Piper travel with them then use the command menu to talk to her. This will initiate the interview to complete the quest.
 * At night when going to Piper's office on first visit to Diamond City she may not be in her office. When you exit the fight between two brothers about one being a synth will occur and Piper will be hiding in the bushes next to her office. She will not continue the quest. Fast traveling away seems to fix this.
