Stoop, Romans, stoop, And let us bathe our hands in Caesar's blood Up to the elbows, and besmear our swords: Then walk we forth, even to the market-place, And, waving our red weapons o'er our heads, Let's all cry 'Peace, freedom and liberty!'

i fucking cranked this thing out at light speeds. happy ides of march!

i ain't nothing but a lonely rider i do not know who is right, who is wrong sing this song for you to sing when i'm gone

my courier oscar sees himself as a very ordinary person in extraordinary circumstances, surrounded by one of a kind, exceptional people. it's a burden and a marvel for him to decide their fates. arcade’s very special too, even if he’s been trapped in mundanity for most of his life. his fate is yet to be decided

i headcanon that caesar has a serious napoleon complex/short man syndrome. he just looks so fucking little on his throne lol. u cant tell me he's some 6'+ beast of incredible physical aptitude like lanius or even joshua graham is/was.

he's just like 5'4" and probably gets out of breath if he throws too many punches with his displacer glove.

Sorry

new vegas has a lot of insanely interesting concepts of characters but honestly nothing tops joshua graham. like it is so interesting he starts as an intelligent missionary who will probably lead the community, to a travelling preacher with his translator friend who decides he can take the mantle of an emperor, to the right hand of justice and the self-proclaimed wrath of both caesar and the lord. 

joshua’s entire life being wrapped in violence of two kinds of assimilation: one religious, and the other cultural. joshua, who does not and has never worn the armor of the legion, who trains boys and brainwashes them and breaks them because a faulty weapon is useless in this empire they’ve built. 

joshua, who fucks up at least once, but then caesar decides to make an example of him. if the right hand of caesar is not exempt from punishment, why should the rest of his legion be? and caesar couldn’t have just given him a firing squad execution. it had to be big. it had to be public.

joshua, who survived being lit on fire and tossed down the grand canyon. who walked to survival, all burnt flesh and agony, like a sinner on the path of redemption. joshua, who is inherently evil and cannot change, who is a warmonger at heart no matter how the courier thinks they can persuade him. joshua is a monster. joshua assimilates tribes and breaks them, and turns peaceful people into violent ones. joshua will never escape the legion or himself, because he was a zealot all along. he wanted to be god’s mouth, god’s revolver, god’s firstborn son.  and even after the courier goes, the burned man stays. the malpais legate stays. malpais meaning ‘rough country, badlands, a place where lava flows, burnt land’. the fire inside him burned bright, but it is not the gentle crackle of the hearth, it is a wildfire, all-consuming.

joshua is a terrible, vengeful creature. and no matter what happens in zion, it is all he ever will be.
