"Is it bad that I'm more scared for what I have to do "Well, c'mon, that was violence," she said. "We're "True, true..." I nodded my agreement, trying to mull over my emotions. "Maybe scared isn't the right word. Nervous? Apprehensive, perhaps?" Cass leaned back in her chair and tipped her hat back. "Fucked if I know. But look on the bright side!" Cass reached across me to point at the gigantic table of food dominating one of the longer far walls. " "Y'think people are going to like it?" I asked.…

I brought my Corvega to a halt in front of the Jacobstown front gate, and the bushes to either side got up and approached me. "Oh," the super mutant in the ghillie suit grunted out as soon as he recognized me. "It's you again." "You get many other visitors up here, driving cars with racing stripes?" I asked with a smirk. The bush in front of me rustled slightly. "Who are they?" The walking foliage motioned with his gun at the Roadkill and the Deuce behind me. "It's cool, they're with me," I said.…

The fucking Sierra Madre: about as close to Hell as you can get on Earth without passing through The Divide first. And now that I've returned, breathing in the poison that stung my skin and was burning my lungs from the inside out, it's probably time to pro/con my decision Pro: without a face-obscuring gas mask, Christine was Con: I hadn't even been here five minutes, and it already felt like hot coals were dropping down my windpipe. Okay, yes, that is obviously an exaggeration, because I'm standing in…

"When did April'n Em say they were gonna arrive?" Cass asked, leaning back against the steps. I shrugged from my spot next to her, looking at my Pip Boy. "Eh, give 'em five more minutes," I said, also settling into a more comfortable position on the steps. Cass and I had dragged our tired and injured selves away from our arrival point in the middle of the street, and were now waiting for our ride on the steps leading up to the Lucky 38. I think the initial shock of two people arriving in midair above the…

"Do you really think this plan of yours is going to work?" Chris asked. I actually busted up laughing hysterically, earning me a strange look from Cass as the three of us ran down this latest corridor. "What, are you Every muscle in my body was screaming at me. It had been several hours since our arrival on the Moon (I'm pretty sure, at least...), and we had barely stopped in all that time. I thought things might get easier with Chris now helping us out, but the fighting seemed I'd say things were…

"I think we lost them..." I said, the visor of my helmet pressed up against the metal grate. "For now, at least." It had been The only reason our current surroundings seemed relatively safe was because it was Whatever it was, there was barely room to crouch, much less stand up, but on the plus side at least three patrols had passed us by so far without any of them pausing to check. We'd been making so much noise and causing so many explosions, I don't think they expected us to try a sneaky…

"You strapped in back there?" I called out over my shoulder. My voice seemed strangely muffled by the metal cocoon surrounding me. I was expecting more of an echo. "Cocked, locked, and ready to fuck shit up!" Cass yelled back at me from the gunner chair. "So, d'ya really know how to drive one of these things?" "Oh, yeah!" I said, settling back into the driver seat, and grabbing hold of the two levers sticking out of the floor between my legs. "I mean, it's not a Corvega in here, but it'll be like driving…

] ] ] ] This was bad. This was so far "Uh... hi," I said weakly. "Uh... look, I know we didn't exactly part on the best of terms last time, but..." " "Well, to be honest," I chuckled weakly, stalling for time. "I'm... not really sure what the fuck is going on right now. I was talking to Yes Man a second ago..." " "Is that so?" I asked cautiously. " "So... uh... how much do you know about what's going on?" I asked, trying to test the waters. " I paused, savoring the irony in her choice of…

"FALL BACK! FALL BACK, NOW!" One of the Enclave soldiers yelled over the clamor and the confusion. "EVERYBODY OUT! GO! G-" He tried to finish his thought, but his words evaporated in midair... along with the rest of him. I had to shield my eyes, because a huge fuck-off laser blasted the air right in front of this giant robot, turning every Enclave soldier in the vicinity into ash and cinders. A giant robot. A giant robot called "Fuck me!" Cass said, unable to hold back laughter. "Well, okay, what d'we…

"Wait, I'm confused," I asked. "Who is this guy again?" Chris didn't answer. Instead, he went over to one of the dead Enclave soldiers and knelt down to inspect the corpse. And you have to admit, that's an impressive feat for someone still wearing such bulky power armor. "I'm actually glad you're here, Vault Dweller," Eden spoke up again, his voice echoing throughout the hangar. "I never got a chance to thank you before." " "Did you honestly think "Oh, please! You're just a computer, Eden!" Chris…
