If you’re still taking asks about Ulysses. How do you think he is with food? Is he a good cook? What kind of foods would he prepare?
im perpetually taking asks about ulysses dear anon
because he needs to improvise with the changing landscapes he travels he’s cooked a great deal and with an even greater range of techniques. i think he’s real good!
but alternative humbling theories are always fun so another possibility: he’s a great cook, if you consider good food to be whatever keeps you going. he knows how to throw things together to make them absolute superfoods… but they taste like the color green, and in a bad way. foods that when you eat them you feel physically like a god but mentally like a serf.
actually lmao tfw your narrative foil cares more about a horse being unwittingly brought into his issues more than caring about the effect it has on you (/j, it’s your shared issue, so you have an obligation, courier!)
or, do you think ulysses would like horses? can you imagine him riding a horse into battle, weilding a flagpole? thatd be so SICK
it’s shown at Wolfhorn he at least knows how to work a farm (animals included), so he very possibly would know how to deal with horses! and I imagine he would very much like them!
but i think unless it was a specially trained war horse he’d feel too guilty bringing a horse into battle. “this is my battle not yours” and so on. but i do think he still would enjoy riding a lot (~:

in general, ive posted here somewhere about my ideas on their origins as a people: i imagine they started as a humanities-focused HBCU’s community, becoming a specific tribal culture post-war, feeding themselves stories to keep warm.
the hairstyles ulysses speaks of that are of the twisted hairs are textured-hair specific, so I’m inclined to believe they are an all-Black people, and Ulysses’ personal affinity for stories and history was in some way learned not just by trauma but by the twisted hairs same connection to it.
also when ulysses says he’s the only one carrying their history now, i imagine as his hair grows, he tries to style his hair to represent the entire people’s history, not just his own story as is tradition in the tribe.
also because, turning back to my previous point, that they’re almost likely an all-Black tribe, i don’t really like the idea of Ulysses being the only one who has the history any more, the idea that they’ve been wholly culturally genocided. i imagine there are still a lot of Twisted Hairs around Colorado—scattered, and less than there were, and possibly hiding from the Legion, but their people still persist and will rise again because of that.
One of my favorite things about building settlements is creating little “hopeful” spaces that serve as a reminder that the wasteland is rebuilding and thriving in its own way. So here’s a little makeshift greenhouse on the otherwise pretty useless second story space at Kingsport Lighthouse.
bad ending: the farmer sells out to Joja
good ending: the farmer restores the community center and Pierre beats up Morris
bad ending++: Morris goes to law school and comes back 4 years later as a Monsanto goon and hits the farmer with a killer lawsuit
good ending++: same as above but the farmer teams up w/ Marlon and Pierre to disappear him in the mines
true ending: the farmer must enter the water purifier even though it’s been established that abigail is immune to radiation
ANOTHER Fallout OC! River is a fisherman and occasional monster-slayer (the two are often the same job) from the Pacific Northwest. While his family and closer friends know him as Furat, he prefers instead to refer to himself by whichever river he’s following at the time while traveling, or whichever port or lake he’s headed for next (hence why I use the placeholder name of River). He does this mostly for the anonymity, to prevent tales of his adventures (especially the monster slaying ones) from being linked back to him at home.
River’s best known for his work as a seasonal salmon hunter and roe collector; while the fish pictured is pretty modestly sized (you could probably find one bigger yourself in-real), they do get larger and attract proportionally large bears; it’s not a job for the faint of heart.
