Summary
Adjective
1. relieving or lessening pain; soothing
2. lacking zest, vigor, etc.; bland; insipidOn the wrong side of thirty and with war teetering on the horizon, Arcade Gannon has mostly given up on making friends and finding love. A contradictory mess of cynicism and idealism, Arcade just wants to help people. Courier Six seems to be his answer to properly helping the people of the Mojave Wasteland; an odd but charming delivery boy with his own set of problems, most of which stem from two bullet holes to the head.
POV Arcade during the events of Fallout: New Vegas. Explores the physical/mental effects of the Courier's brain injury, including seizures, headaches and retrograde memory loss. Very slow burn, lots of world-building and references to other games in the series (especially Fallout 2). Deals with mature themes present in the game/series overall, but chapters with heavy subject matter will be marked accordingly.
Gay people cannot just ask each other out, especially not in the Wasteland.
Currently updating: Fortnightly (Every second Friday-ish)

Summary
Craig Boone is the night-time watchman/sniper for the small town of Novac. He's used to popping raiders, legion, and wildlife before they can cause the town any trouble. He isn't ready for some confident stranger to walk right up to Dinky the Dinosaur and wave at him. There's no way they should be able to see him. He especially isn't ready for the stranger to climb up into his sniper nest to say hello.
Stars he doesn't want to talk to people. Let alone talk to this smiling asshole stranger. -

[OLD] You Say 'Jump' by AStateOfMindOverMatter
Fandoms: Fallout (Video Games), Fallout: New Vegas

Summary
The Legion's win over Hoover Dam was monumental for many people in many different ways. For Arcade Gannon, all it meant was that he'd likely be stuck with the megalomaniac warlord of the Legion for the rest of his life, slowly being driven closer and closer to the edge with each passing day.
That is, until he gets an unwelcome reprieve in the form of one incredibly injured Vulpes Inculta.

Nihil Novi Sub Sole
There's nothing new under the sun.
Arcade Gannon. Doctor, Follower, companion, personal slave to Caesar.
Sleeping at the foot of a megalomaniac, fascist dictator. That's where he'd been for the last four years, thanks for asking. Now stop asking questions about it, he's really quite boring. Please stop asking.

Summary
Upon seeing a dead man in Tesla power armor, Veronica tells her companions about the Enclave and just how horrible they were.

Then they go to Novac and she overhears him talking with an old woman and everything she thought she knew about the doctor is turned on its head.

Summary
“That’s a shame,” Arcade hesitated, eyeing Manny’s reaction out of the corner of his vision, “I was actually looking forward to hearing you talk some more.”
If Arcade wasn't mistaken, it seemed that Mister Vargas was eyeing him in the exact same regard. Watching. Waiting. Ah, the game. How Arcade loathed it. But he loved it too. The little dance men like them had to play just to spend a night together. Assuming that Manny was a man like him, of course. Which, if he was reading everything right, he should be. That, or they were both about to be very unlucky. Arcade smiled. Manny smiled back. All good signs.
‘Don’t fall in love, stupid’ said the voice in his head.

Summary
"You okay with this?" He monotones. Arcade shrugs, holsters his energy weapon. Unlike him to attempt such a performative display of the defunct second amendment, but Jack Jack is kin to Boone and he wants to try that silent reassurance the former likes so much.
"Sure." Arcade sighs. "Always up for traipsing across the Mojave in search of a boy's own adventure. All we require now is a dog and an inciting incident to promote character growth."
A hidden bunker, Cass's boy child, and a haunting.

Summary
“Don’t go getting ideas above your station,” he murmurs. “That I let you in here – that we talk, sit, touch. That is already far too much.”
“My station,” she replies. “Oh, I know my position in this world.”
His eyebrows quirk a little at her tone. “And that position is?”
“On my knees. Staring up at you,” she raises her chin, something hard in her gaze. “Adoringly.”In the world of the Legion, women have been reduced to their most essential function: to bear children. If they deviate, or dream of another life, they will be hanged with the rest of the dissenters along the great wall of New Vegas for the other women to see. Or, perhaps worse still, sent out into the wild wastes to succumb to radiation poisoning or be torn apart by mutants. The commander Vulpes Inculta has just received a new handmaid; a mute, shy thing who says little and thinks less. But Ofvulpes has her own memories of the war, and even an oppressive state cannot obliterate freedom of thought – or secrets.
