Let 'em say we're crazy, I don't care about that; put your hand in my hand, baby. Don't ever look back.
Maxon (Max + Carson) fully rendered. THIS is the reason why I left Twitter, it's gonna be the reason why I'm coming back! 🤪 I cannot even begin to describe the flak I got for shipping these characters...and that was just a draft—and now I have a fully rendered version! Wish me luck! 🤞🍀
Raw, firm and handsome reasons to fall for Maxon Schreave.
"You can ask me whatever, I'll be truthful and transparent."
"These are my terms. I can't just foolishly fall in love and have my effort wasted or not reciprocated for a long time. It's a duly give and take."
"What's mine is mine. I'll stand against 'whoever' will go against what I hold dear at the very last bit of my power."
"I'm not giving up just because of fleeting anger. Not until we've talked about this issue properly and without all these unwanted tension and pent up frustrations."
"I'm not letting my anger get the best of me. Not when I'm in front of someone I hold dear. That's the extent of my genuine affection."
"I might seem naive but I'm aware of the reality--humans and their flaws, my strengths and weaknesses."
"Love is a two way thing and it's not some fancy, fairy tale ideal alone. If you want it to last then we have to build mutual faith and trust."
So in Fallout 3, tiny Maxon had actually tried befriending Liberty Prime, but was forced to stay away from them. And we see how he ended up later on.
But just imagine an AU where he said "Screw it, I'm befriending the robot!"
I like to think he would've had this Iron Giant type bond with Prime, would end up hiding away with his best friend, and grow up instead supporting robots and believe in them having free will.
And just a lil thing I'd like, Mayor MacCready would check out what that "surface ruckus" was that was getting closer to the Lamplight entrance, only to see this kid excitedly sitting on this giant robot's shoulder, and who the heck wouldn't want to befriend the kid with his own robot!?
Then in Fallout 4, the two would be chill with each other, of course Mac would still love the fact someone has their own giant robo buddy.
And Maxon would definitely be on the side of synths having free will.
Just 1 little thing would've changed his whole future.
So faction leaders (including DLC) have their voices crack while they talk
How would they react to SS having heard their voice crack?
SS is trying real hard to keep a straight face.
I’m sorry but I haven’t played the DLC recently so I don’t feel comfortable doing Nuka World, Far Harbor, etc. But I can do the base game! Hope you still enjoy the reaction :)
Desdemona: Deacon always spoke about the infamous “Des” like she was ice cold vengeance personified. Sole had seen her partner stand tall against bigots and coursers, but the moment Desdemona lowered her voice he was all putty and puddle. So when Desdemona’s voice cracked during a debrief -- and one on a mission Sole and Deacon had botched -- the two couldn’t bite back their smiles. Desdemona scowled and asked them if something was funny. “No, ma’am,” Sole snickered. Then Deacon suggested Desdemona do exercises to warm up her throat before meetings, and she assigned them both nightshift guard duty for a week.
Maxon: As soon as Maxon’s voice cracked, so did his stoic façade. Some of the younger scribes giggled, while the elder soldiers went rigid, as if standing still meant they weren’t in the room at all. Sole’s lips quivered, barely holding back their laugh. “That will be all,” Maxon said lowly, overcompensating for the pathetic noise he just made. When Sole was the last to leave, they cast a knowing look over their shoulder, one that let him know if it happened again they wouldn’t spare his pride.
Preston: Preston blushed a deep crimson, stammering over his words. “Oh gosh, haven’t done that since I was a teenager.” Sole feigned innocence and said they didn’t know he was a teenager the last run they went on. “That mirelurk was huge, Sole. I’m allowed to crack my voice out of fear.”
Shaun: Sole didn’t care that Shaun was a senior citizen and leader of humanity’s high-tech future; he was their son, and therefore fair game for teasing. Shaun rolled his eyes as if he were fifteen, not pushing geriatrics. “I won’t let you sit in meetings if you’re going to be immature,” Shaun warned. Sole leaned across the table to pinch his cheek, and every scientist and courser beside them recoiled in their seats.
why is ends with us getting a movie before selection and other great books with awesome writing, super loveable characters and storylines that make you high on dopamine
I’m reading The Selection for the third time and every time I feel the same. I love this series so much 🥹😭 it’s just the perfect comfort series for me 🥹 #maxerica forever ♾❤️
I have a lot to highlight and keep tbh. aside from the book itself. (〃▽〃) This is my favorite among the three series so far. And these are just some of those breath taking parts I wanna re-read over and over again. -`♡´-
In this volume, the story literally showed a good harmony of reality and ideal that it wouldn't leave you doubting either the good parts or bad parts for all the ways the succeeding counter situations balance the feeling you'd actually experience gushing over when reading the latter. It sure is fiction but it didn't fail to show the raw and weak side of humans in a very accepting way. You would literally hate the bad circumstances Maxon and Mer had to experience but you would also love how they both will change its negative outcome instead in the most endearing way. "Especially Maxon". Being the prince that he is, I commend him for persevering a lot just to earn Mer's trust and love and everything in the rawest and most truthful way possible. He was never just a prince who sugarcoats everything just to appear manly and that's the loveliest thing about him, me thinks. Plus the bonus narratives of his refreshing reactions on normal social cues. <3
