#Orion Moreno

[w98pops]

extremely self-indulgent 😭

[frootbyethefoot]

thought about how fucked up it was that moreno was completely ready to kill courier 6 and (more notably) arcade if you don’t manage to convince him to fight with the ncr. and didn’t stop thinking.

[ID: three digital drawings of fallout: new vegas. the first drawing is of orion moreno sitting on a wooden chair, his expression is indiscernible. in the background, theres a small light brown bookshelf, a bed frame, and a mattress. there is smoke coming from morenos mouth. a small orange box of text next to him says “... smoking that god-awful pipe that left the wallpaper yellow and peeling.” the entire drawing is tinted in orange. the second drawing is of arcade gannon. he is drawn from around the waist up, and looks uncomfortable. he has his fist balled up and towards his chest. a purple text box to the right of him reads, “ i remember thinking he wasn’t content to just destroy himself.” the entire drawing is tinted in a purpleish pink color. the final drawing is of moreno in his enclave armor. he looks ready to fight, and is holding a gatling laser. the gatling laser is colored in only a bright red, and is already shooting out a laser. a red text box just above him reads, “ he seemed to have to take out everything with him.” the entire drawing is tinted in a dark red.]

Fic where the Enclave remnants were in a polycule with Arcade's parents and they were just the most overbearing gang of parents imaginable but then they all break up when Arcade is a teenager and he's like the stereotypical divorced parents kid but there's five of them.

During For Auld Lang Syne Arcade's like "I guess they can help at Hoover Dam, but I really just want to stop having to go to five different places every time I want to talk to my parents."

[delafiseaseses]

I thought about the NCR Sharecropper Farms and Concluded they should not Exist.

Strong opening line, 'ey? How's ol' Delafiseaseses gonna justify that?

Quite easily, actually. Y'see some people misunderstand the NCR Sharecropper Farms, they think it provides food to the Mojave. Not true. It provides food to the NCR, clues in the name, really. Its a Sharecrop, the NCR gets some of the crop and the sharecroppers get the rest of their crop as payment, the portion the NCR takes goes to NCR Military bases. As Romanowski says 'A lot of the crops grown here support the various NCR camps in the region - McCarran, Golf, and Forlorn Hope, to name a few. We can't have wastelanders popping in here for a free meal, so my squad and I are assigned to keep things from going to hell.' and when Romanowski says 'Wastelanders' he means 'people from the Mojave Wasteland' of course.

Do the sharecroppers sell their crops to Mojave citizens? Possibly, but remember all the sharecroppers are NCR citizens brought over by the 'Thaler Act', nobody from the Mojave directly benefits from this arrangement.

You may think 'Well, not like anyone in the Mojave before was using the land.' possibly wrong. While he's not from the Mojave (and is an unrepentant Enclave fascist, but that's irrelevant) Orion Moreno has this to say 'I came out here to get away from them - didn't work out so well. Next thing I know, I'm squatting in "their" land. Never mind that I'd already been living here for years.', and when he says 'years' he could mean up to over 3 decades. So we've got to wonder... was the land unoccupied? Moreno is a stubborn old Enclave soldier, he wouldn't scare easy, he gets harassed by the NCR, as he says when you first meet him 'Bah. Looks like I forgot to lock the doors again. If you're with the NCR, get out. This place is mine, and I'm not leaving.' or, if you am in NCR faction armour 'Look, trooper, I was living in this house long before your farms got set up. Don't even think about evicting me.' most people would be forced off by these tactics. So it is entirely possible the NCR has displaced Mojave residents to set up their precious farm.

Both quests involving the Sharecropper Farm also include a backdrop of NCR vs Mojave Locals. The most obvious is, of course, The White Wash. The Westside Co-Op, an actual local community farming effort (which does have some New Californians, but they're unaffiliated with the NCR), is only surviving because of the syphoning of water from the Sharecroppers by Tom Anderson. The water from the local water system that the NCR took over, I might add. Why do they get to claim ownership of Lake Mead's water and the Vegas water system?

And the second, Hard Luck Blues is more indirect. The NCR isn't at fault at all for this, the Vault 34 Civil War damaged their reactor and that was entirely on them. But the final choice between saving the Vault 34 Survivors or dealing with the radiation leak caused by the Vault 34 Civil War killing the survivors. So it is literally saving an NCR Asset or saving people who for over 200 years have lived in the Mojave.

Now, I'm not saying the Sharecroppers themselves deserve to suffer lower than needed water rations or radiation in their soil. They didn't set this up, they're just working class NCR citizens trying to survive, but, the thing is, the Sharecroppers can just... leave. And they do if these quests are resolved in ways that hurt the Farms.

After the White Wash siding with Anderson/Westside the affected sharecropper Trent Bascom says he's quitting because 'I wouldn't be able to meet the quota, and the NCR would kick me out of my job, anyway. Nah, it's better I get out on my own terms.' and he's even got a plan for his future 'I hear the Brahmin ranchers out in Redding are looking for some hard workers, so I might try there first. I hate working with Brahmin, though.' so, yeah, that sucks for him, but he's got a future. He may not like that future, but its more of a future than the Westsiders have if they lose their Co-Op.

And after Hard Luck Blues you can find some Sharecroppers out front of the Big Horn Saloon in Boulder City. The named member of this group is a woman named Anne, she has this to say 'We're heading back home. I hope our troops do the same. This land can't be saved. Trying to grow crops in this heat, with so little water, is bad enough, but now we've got radiation seeping into the farmlands east of New Vegas. We're done. Let the people of these hell-hole deal with their problems, I say.' and, y'know, I agree. Maybe the people of the Mojave should deal with their problems and not have a military force from somewhere else claiming their land and water? Especially since the area is still disputed at this time. They're literally fighting a bloody war which they have a 3/4 chance of losing during all of this.

To put this all in a shorter way: The NCR Sharecropper Farm's existence is an example of NCR colonialism.

Like, it's textbook fucking colonialism. They forcefully took over part of a land that's not theirs, brought in their own people to 'settle' the land and violently keep the locals out of it all, who suffer because of it. I've said before that the NCR playacts the USA and they certainly playact it accurately.

So, unless you're doing an NCR playthrough, I'd say its probably best to side against the Sharecropper Farm in every instance because the NCR Sharecropper Farms should not exist. It sucks for the Sharecroppers, but they'd be out of the job when the NCR withdraws anyway. Probably best for everyone if they get out before the NCR Military does.

[roseyturtles]

Also also Orion Moreno is the most homophobic homosexual man you'll ever fucking meet. Half of his hatred for Johnson is fueled by lust for his old man body and Judah just sits back and laughs at it half the time. This has been going on for 35 years and nobody's stopping it

Top right: Doc Henry, former Enclave scientist. —"I prefer the solitude, and having a bunch of Super Mutants around tends to keep things safe and quiet."

I swear if I see another post in the fnv main tag about how Arcade would actually be okay with Boone murdering children and arguing that those children are actually dangerous threats who deserve to be shot because "Oh he said he feels for the soldiers in one ambient voice line and also his parents are war criminals 😇😇"

Arcade's whole story is about his baggage and discomfort with his family being violent fascist war criminals. Like. it's literally his entire quest. The only reason he comes up with defences for them is because he's seen the good in them, and even that gets him feeling conflicted. Let's not forget Arcade will join the courier in KILLING Orion Moreno if he can't let go of the Enclave's ideals, he will literally kill this close family friend. Arcade will literally open fire on The Courier who gleefully activates Archimedes. Arcade will berate and yell at a Legion-aligned courier until he thinks its not worth it anymore. Arcade is Not kind to war criminals or fascists.

Boone saying shit like this?

You really think Arcade is going to feel even a little bit charitable or merciful after hearing THAT come from Craig's mouth? don't make me laugh. Arcade is absolutely not the fucking guy to be like "Actually killing children might be justified" I don't fucking care what his ambient line says.

The night Navarro fell to the NCR, the Californian soldiers set fire to the surrounding forest in an attempt to smoke Enclave officials out of their barracks and into shackles. What they hadn't counted on is soldiers and civilians alike anticipating the attack and leaving hours before the attack---or, more recklessly, fleeing through the flames. The only reason the Remnants were among the latter camp was because of Orion Moreno, who was just as willing to die with America in 2249 as in '81, despite the five most important people in his life begging him to fold his cards and run with them. He was dragged away from that military base kicking and screaming, and sustained very physical burns from close calls with the five hundred degree fires.

The only reason he was pulled away at all was because the young Gannon boy, with his bespectacled green eyes, watched as he fought and was willing to die. The young Gannon boy, who lost his father before he was even born, and whose mother was quickly decaying from grief and some undiagnosable illness. Only he was able to pull Moreno from the flames. The boy had lost enough, Moreno reasoned in a rare moment of clarity-through-hatred. He didn't need to watch a family friend die in a firefight. He didn't need to watch everyone else die because they waited too long for him.

But the boy was not spared of harm entirely despite Moreno's momentary mercy. His senses, young and malleable, drank in every detail. His eyes watched the blinding red fires and the pillars of smoke as they mixed with the inky black sky, blocking out the stars he so loved. His nose picked up the acrid, stinging smell of charcoal, diesel fuel, and burnt flesh. And his ears, through the cracking and explosions of dying trees, assault rifles, and missiles, heard the last words of a kind heart.

"Kiss America goodbye, boys."
