#nate fo4

Shaun is being so ungrateful. He got two dads now in stead of one. 🙄

The background took ages to do, lol

(Yes, Shaun is quite dark in my saves despite Nate being a ghostly pale ginger, as I always make my Nora very dark. Synth Shaun does look rather odd with his bright ginger hair and green eyes with his complexion. Xp )

Also, here’s the version without Shaun and the Institute nerds.

[gigifluidcat]

Nick: Name something a Burglar would not wanna see when he breaks into a house-

(HANCOCK PRESSES BUTTON)

Nick: John!

Hancock: Nekkid Grandma!

Nick: Nekkid- huh?

(AUDIENCE LAUGHTER)

Nate: ... I don't wanna see that either.

(DING)

Hancock: WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

67. “You NEED to sleep.” dealers choice on who!

"You need to sleep, Blue."

What he needed was a jam jar of moonshine and a cigarette. Nate smiled wide and carefree in rebuttal.

Brow pinching, Piper slammed a foot down in front of him, blocking his path to the door.

His smile wavered a little. "I'm fine, really." He assured her, reaching a hand out to squeeze her shoulder. Cold fingers were a little shakier than he might've liked. "I'll sleep when it's finished, okay? Scouts honor." He made a signum crusus over his chest.

She blinked, scowling. "There's two-dozen Minutemen out on watch duty tonight, and twice as many searching for the shooter. And," she inclined her head, "no reason to think you stumblin' around out there half outta your gourd is gonna make any difference in how things pan out." She pressed the point of a finger to his chest. Hard, apparently, because he felt his balance waver and the world spun wildly in response.

Nate's grip on her tightened. Vertigo stole his chance at a rebuttal.

"You know what? No. I take it back." She snarked, "You'd be a liability, Blue." Grabbing his wrist to steady him, she aligned their torsos and let her grimace melt into something softer. "Look. I get it. Neither of us is good at sitting on the bench while others go to bat for us. But trust me a little, here, ok? You're in no condition to—"

"They saw me take a bullet, Piper." Nate huffed, wincing as his stitches twinged. "I won't hide from this. My men need to know their General isn't scared. That I'll keep fighting. "

"They need to know their General isn't an idiot." She reparted. "Which means getting some damn rest. I'm surprised the Med-X Doc Anderson gave you hasn't knocked you on your ass already, actually."

He blinked.

She blinked. "You didn't take it, did you?"

"It would have —"

"Put you to sleep. Yeah. That was the point." She huffed, putting her hands on her hips. Then rubbed her brow and sighed, tapping a foot. "Jesus, Blue."

He stared at her, pensive for a moment. When her foreheard-rubbing persisted, he glanced to the side, almost boyish in his sheepishness. "If something goes wrong, an - and I'm drugged into a stupor — I can't risk that, Scribbles." The very thought pulled his chest tight and sent pain shooting through the sour wound in his side.

"Did that gunshot make you deaf, too?" She asked, looking up sharply. She snapped her fingers, "What exactly would you prove to anyone by waltzing out there and falling flat on your face?" Her tone turned mocking, "Behold the mighty General, come to save us all with his surperior stupidity and flawless fainting skills!"

"I just—"

Piper's scathing look silenced him.

Nate swallowed. His heart was pounding like a drum in his ears. Pain spiked through every thought and formulated reply. He really needed to find a chair. But that wouldn't exactly help him make his point. So instead, he fought the urge to sway, and met her gaze, and opened his mouth to argue.

He wasn't entirely sure how he ended up on the floor, after that. He'd blinked, and opened his eyes again to the ceiling above. A new pain arced up his elbow and shoulder. His insides felt like spaghetti, and nausea bubbled up in his throat.

Piper leaned over him, face awash in horror as she slapped at his cheek. "Blue! Blue!"

"Nhg..."

She sighed, cupping his jaw and putting on a brave smile. "I wasn't asking for a demonstration, y'know."

Squinting his eyes shut, Nate considered trying to move. But thought better of it. "Sorry…"

"You're bleeding again." She worried, peeling back his shirt and exposing sore skin to cold air. "I should go get the Doc."

"…Yeah."

"Blue?"

He cracked an eye open.

She lifted his hand to her lips. "You really are an idiot."

Something Dicey (At The Precipice Of Something New Chapter XLIII)

Having made it past the Rust Devils, Paladin Danse, Scribe Haylen, and Knight Rhys enter the Fort Hagen Hangar with the unusual robot to track the Mechanist and their minions? Dr. Amari, Curie, and the Lone Wanderer receive an escaped synth at the Memory Den who wants to tell what he knows about the Institute before having his memory erased? Nora and Cait take in the progress being made in constructing the signal interceptor while ferocity in Nora's will continue to crack her? Having been admitted into the facility wherein Dima stored his memories by the Children Of Atom, the General, the detective, the secretary, and the General's right hand man and his daughter begin to retrieve the memories of Acadia's leader? Shaun and Nate look over what they have been informed of regarding the luring of Nora to them and the Institute and discuss a potential new member of the Institute with Dr. Alana Secord and Dr. Madison Li, who present them with further push back to what had been kept from them and the rest of the Directorate for far too long?

A lot is moving. Read it on AO3, ff.net, and/or wattpad!!!

i think they should have had a preset for stats in fallout 4 that were relevant to the canon backstory of Nate and Nora. Like nate would have had a higher strength and perception stat from being in the army, Nora would have had high intelligence and luck from being a lawyer, obviously you could change them but i never know where to start with stats in FO4 since you can get 10 in all of them the higher your level gets. Idk what do you guys think that Nate and Noras stats would be?

[stoat-party]

You are dating Paladin Danse.

Despite spending half of most nights pacing, he always wakes you up at exactly 5 AM to work out. It does not occur to him that you might not want this.

He tends to stroke your hair or rub your back. You realize this is because Emmett the cat is the only thing he’s given affection for at least five years.

He informs you unprompted that he would still love you if you were a worm. You ask if he would still love you if you were a ghoul. He has to think about it.

There’s usually a settlement on fire somewhere, but occasionally you have to come up with problems for him to solve. If he doesn’t feel useful he gets sad.

He tries very hard to be nice to your friends. Hancock tries very hard to make him fail.

You tell him he doesn’t have to feel responsible for Shaun. He agrees, for the time being. He will listen to Shaun talk about anything. For hours.

You catch him white-knuckling the bathroom sink and staring into the mirror. That sink hasn’t worked in 200 years. Why is he doing that.

[gigifluidcat]

Does he really think he can just stare at me like that to convince me his war crimes were ok? <3

Smash or Pass

Saw this goin' around and thought it looked fun xD I will tag @seasaltandcopper @boggleoflight @rinka-fortemps

Nate Ronan

Nate is a widowed army vet who's trying to find his feet in the post-nuclear wasteland. He's a goofball and an animal lover with a heart of gold, who genuinely cares about everyone he meets. Yeah. Everyone. He's not afraid to fight for what he believes in, but his real skill lies in making peace and bringing people together.

Pros: Utterly devoted to a lover and willing to put a lot of time and energy into building a relationship that will last. Extremely romantic - he sings, he cooks, he sews. He will listen to you ramble about your hyperfixations with absolute attention. Also breaks the scale on the Fallout 2 sex skill calculator.

Cons: Severe PTSD means sometimes he shows up unannounced to check on you and sometimes he disappears for days on end and you can't contact him. Night terrors can interrupt sleep. He will "I'm Fine" himself into severe illness or a mental breakdown. Expect to be stuck in the mutual pining stage for several years while he works through his fear of losing you or (worse) disappointing you.

Danse: Wow, they really hate us. Nate: Yes, perhaps they’re homophobic. Nate: But we’re not gay, Danse. Nate: Nate: Danse: We’re not?
