sorry if this has been asked before but i was curious if something like ghoulification was ever in the cards for gloria? its been a little bit since ive reread dmt and dww so i apologize if it was mentioned there and i forgot

oh don't apologise at all! i figured no, the story only works if gloria is at a real risk of dying. turning into a ghoul kind of takes the sting out of 'the ambient radiation in the air is a death sentence'. just in universe, though it never came up, my thought on how ghouls work is it's a genetic thing: it's something you either have capacity to do or you don't. with all that said, a few years back i did do a little ghoul design for her for fun! it's really old and outdated, so i took another stab at it

her hair is clinging on for dear life but she's not giving it up

fo3 choosing to give you a companion that’s immune to radiation only to have him refuse to go into the irradiated room at the end of the game to press a button who then insists that you must do it even though it’ll kill you and the game also reprimanding you in the closing narration if you choose not to is still the funniest fucking thing on earth

This is a reminder that the actor that plays your favorite character is not that character. It does not change who your favorite character is when their actor turns out to be an asshole. Actors frequently do not share the values of their characters. Nor do they make an attempt to learn from their characters.

Sometimes a character would HATE the actor who plays them, and we can still love and appreciate the character.

Vulpes Inculta is the funniest fucking character to me. His name is literally "Fox In-a-cult". He's a twink, he's a furry. He wears a mini skirt. He's a misogynist. He crucifys people

[eldritchcoffeefiend]

OK, I'm sure this has probably been said before, but it struck me that if Vulpes ever really wanted to show any kind of affection for someone it would probably be like a cat bringing you a dead bird.

Vulpes: *throws a Ranger helmet at your feet and gives you a broad, creepy grin*

You: ... I-is there still a head in there?

Or...

You: Did you wipe out an entire settlement?!

Vulpes: Of course. It's our anniversary.

genuine question, what do you mean by babying danse?

I like him quite a lot and seen a considerable amount of content, but I might've just not noticed?? what you're talking about specifically

What I mean is people basically pulling the "he's my baby boy he'd never do anything wrong" shit. And the way people talk about him (calling him a "himbo", and as said "baby boy", saying he's just a sad guy who's misunderstood, etc) reads deeply as infantilization especially considering. As said. He's a grown man who literally upholds fascist ideals and only left the Brotherhood because he'd literally die otherwise

I'm not saying people aren't allowed to explore a softer side of him or theorize how a redemption arc for him would go. But the way I often see him (mis)characterized as being a stupid, gentle, "doesn't know what he's doing is wrong :(" type of guy REEKS of "autistic people are basically like children and don't know if they're doing something bad", especially since I've seen people on multiple platforms claim him and Maxon are "son and father figure" despite him being older than Maxon, just because he's subservient to him and they're vaguely friends

(But since fans read him as autistic OBVIOUSLY that means Maxon is like a caretaker for this poor misguided soul and not literally his boss and commander /sarcasm)

Like. If you haven't seen this stuff, good for you. But basically every time I've seen a post about him that isn't tearing into him for being a BOS member is basically like what I mentioned in one degree or another. If you actually look at the way people talk about him, it becomes obvious

Plus, you notice this when it's not just one character this happens to. I've seen it happen with Arcade (thankfully that's died down in recent years), Preston, and currently Maximus from the show. Just an endless cycle of people denying autonomy from characters who are read as awkward and/or autistic

(I'm sure other people would have more examples on hand. So if you do, feel free to reblog this and add them)
