Just when I think I can get some piece and quiet, some asshole who thinks it's funny to mess with people's heads has to trap me like some kinda Slaver.

[ Grunt. ]

Whatever. No different from any other job. Let's just get this over with.

How it breaks my heart to see the cradle of America become such a dreadful place. How did it come to this, mundane? The place where the final battle of the Revolution was fought, the U.S.S. Constitution run aground; why, it's as depressing as the state of our great nation's capitol!

But, the Brotherhood... hmm... you know, mundane. Maybe, I underestimated them. It's nice to see that after all these years... they've managed to come around.

Look, mun, I get that it's a running joke there, where you are. I can get that it can seem tedious and annoying to go out there again and again protecting settlements, but that's the cost of being the good guys here in the Commonwealth. It's not easy. There's a lot of work that way too many don't want to do.

But it can be done. That's why I trust the General as much as I do. They can get it done.

It is very difficult to access my UNSTOPPABLE ROBO-SCORPION ARMY! From here, anyway. Hmmm. Maybe I'm getting interference from some robo-spiders nearby. Although that would be ridiculous! Who'd want to invent robotic spiders? It'd be like making... robotic pies. Or robotic spies. Spy-pie? Where the spies are hiding inside the pie, yes.

You're going to have to step closer, there's either two or four of you over there. Unless everything went all out of focus again. Or I've had too few mentats today. [There is no such thing as too many, you see.] One or the other. Or both. All within the realm of possibility!

saidsarcastically

Hey, dumbass. Don't you think I have a little too much on my plate right now for you to be bothering me?

[Seriously he's still getting used to his own world. Now...this?]

I know I'm the last person who should be talking about bad ideas, but this is a bad idea.

tunnelsnakesrule

Hey, nosebleed! How am I supposed to start my gang up again if you keep ignoring me, huh?

[Butch does not appreciate this impeding on his search for new members okay]

It may not be the same as the original gang, but we're still gonna be the toughest out there. Just you wait!

starsandgauntlets

Alright, I'll do it for a pair of zap gloves and matching earrings, that's my final offer.

Hey! I drive a very hard bargain, just ask any of the other Scribes. Or, uh, don't, I'm pretty sure they're doing the thing where they pretend I don't exist again. But shows what they know, I'm the only one who can make a half decent Brahmin burger around here. That's a highly valued skill in our neck of the woods. No, really, it's in the Codex, right next to the part about pretending the last two hundred years haven't happened.

But I've been told I have an unorthodox interpretation there.

revelation216

Most fathers get breakfast in bed, but I suppose I can't complain. Could be worse.

[At least he has his heal--oh wait.]

thesignofthebull

This is your idea of a joke, right? Where do you get off, thinking you can control me like I'm another one of your little puppets? Get it through your thick skull: nobody commands me but me. One cockamamie thing passes your lips and I'll rip your tongue out and feed it to the dogs.

Face it. You fucked up, big time.

Do something about all this noise, while you're at it.

Now get out of my sight. Vale.

practicedhands

Nothing about this is a good idea. I think you know well enough, but let me remind you all the same.

I may not be able to avoid killing for as long as Caesar wants me and those around me dead, but to place me in a situation where it becomes necessary for more reasons than that... you and I both know where this path leads. I do not wish to experience that darkness another time.

If you mean to go through with this, do not expect my cooperation.

awearyexile

What're you lookin' at? Purifier's up and runnin' like we all wanted and nobody died doing it. Looks kinda like a success from where I'm standing, but no, fuck that, you're gonna be picky about it instead all because I didn't push three buttons at the finish line? Ugh, pass.

Whatever. There's lots of world out here, and fuck you if you think I don't want to see more of it. Never did find Canterbury Commons, and you know what, I've got plenty of time to take a trip or two now, so let's get this show on the road.

todaysphysician

Are you all right?

Not like there’s much of anything I can do about it from here, but you know me, I gotta ask anyway. Think I know the problem, though. Got some free advice for you, too. Don’t have to take it, but couldn’t hurt, right? Far as I know, anyway.

Let’s just see where this whole thing goes before you start tearin’ yourself up over it. That kinda stress ain’t too good for your health, and trust me, I should know. You’ve probably heard enough pep talks from the folks who’ve come through here to wanna tie on another, so I’ll do you a favor and keep this one short.

Start chippin’ away at this mess, and sooner or later you’ll hit pay dirt. Just gotta keep digging 'til you get there, that’s all.

americasleeps

Not my voice. Yours, filtered through silence and machines.

Know the words well enough. But hollow inside. The echo, the ripple. Not the shout, the rock.

Got more walking to do.

tucsondammit

Is it too late for me to volunteer elsewhere, boss? My shack in the middle of nowhere is starting to look downright pleasant compared to this.

baptizedtwice

One thing, first. Starting isn’t the hard part. Stopping is. Every time.

I won't deliver platitudes, so you'll have to look elsewhere for that. But if it's help you need, I'll provide what I can. There are more qualified people to give it. You know that.

And you know me well enough. I wouldn’t be here otherwise. Reciting psalms has nothing to do with it. Scripture can be changed or go missing entirely. Especially here. The meaning matters, not the words themselves. But if it’s the words you need, that shouldn’t be a problem. If nothing else, I can speak.

After you.

discoursesonlivy

Well, here we are again. Can we drop this now, or are you planning on coming back every three months or so for the rest of our lives? Really, it's almost sad how predictable this all is. You hit plot point A or B, usually somewhere in the middle part of this whole mess, and then you start poking at me trying to get a reaction. I hate to break it to you, but it's not gonna work this time, no matter how often you start talking about misguided attempts to take over a public works project, or... what was that you said about a computer terminal in Grayditch?

...You know what, forget I said that. All of that. Right now. Please?

[S i g h.] Yeah, it's good to see you, too.

grognak

I don't regret it. Don't know why I should, either.

Well. Okay, the getting shot at by the whole town part wasn't so great. But it was worth it. You know that, right?

knifetoagunfight

If I hear anything about Ancient Tribal Wisdom outta you, I'm walking. We clear?

Dear Mun . . .

I think we have issues.
