There are SO many things that can be said about the male sole survivor’s canon backstory (either of them, really) but the fact that he’s a soldier is already so incredibly damning. You’ve lost at the starting point.Â
I don’t care if his planned speech was radical and would have been considered treasonous. I don’t want some wishy-washy “speak truth to power” BS. Fallout 1 starts it’s intro with soldiers executing Canadians in the street while laughing in some “go get em boys!” propaganda reels. I don’t want a pre-war soldier protagonist unless he was kicked out of the military for refusing to commit war crimes and beating the shit out of his commanding officer instead, Doomguy style.Â

Tell me when you get bored. A story about doses. [x]
I posted this on twitter and had a variety of aggressive ableism thrown my way.
This is a story about changing what I can in spite of what I cannot for the comfort of my loved ones. The thing that others find to be hurtful about me is that I like to spend time in silent solitude. People who love me often feel hurt that I tend to solve my own problems instead of leaning on them.
When we spend too much time together, people find my neutrality to be concerning, and it becomes too much for people to be unable to read me.
To show the people I love that I enjoy their company in ways they can understand, I pool my energy together to be high-energy, peppy, and social. Since this is not my natural state of being, it takes effort, which can only be expended in small doses. I amplify the things people like in me while filtering out everything they dislike about me when I am in their company.
I change my behaviors for those I love, but at the end of the day, I cannot change my neutral state of being, which is the thing that they want most out of me.
This is a story about me accommodating people in the best way I know how, not the other way around. I would truly appreciate it if people don't misconstrue this anecdote as me asking for dismissal of hurtful behavior when in reality, people find hurt in the fact that I simply exist, and I must change for them.

Laios & "Chil"
Excuse the bad photo. But basically, this tidbit from the Adventurers' Bible says that "Only people are very close to an individual call them by their first name on its own."
So in other words, only someone very close to Chilchuck would call him "Chil".
Well, something I noticed...
Laios can be oblivious about names, but he doesn't call him this before - and this is right after this scene:
where Chilchuck confesses to caring about him (& the others. but also him!) on a personal level. So I do think it's intentional. And Chilchuck clearly isn't objecting! Look at that grin.
This just makes me happy. Despite how he often acts like he doesn't care, of our main party of four, Chilchuck and Laois have known each other the longest, and they are good friends.
It reminds me of this moment from the prequel extra Kui posted on her blog.
He's scolding him, but it's cause he feels awkward in the group when Laios isn't there! Me when the one coworker I'm friends with is late. They're buddies! It's cute!!
