That ain’t gonna fly if he has something to say about it. It’s one thing to insult someone, but for them to insult Curiw like that? Nuh uh. MacCready - He steps in almost immediately and if it wasn’t for Curie desperately trying to pull him back, he’s sure he would’ve decked the idiot who dared to say a bad thing about her. If there’s one thing he hates, it’s bigoted and judgemental assholes who are in desperate need for a lesson in human dignity. Hancock - He tells them outright to knock it off and leave her alone, later ambushing the fool and holding a knife to their throat untul they nearly soil their pants. And no he doesn’t have a softspot for Curie. Gage - He shoots them dead where they stand, nothing more to say really. After everything is said and done, he even does The Click™ and stares them down until they leave Curie the hell alone. That should teach them.ĭanse - It takes everything in him not to lash out physically because even though Curie is a synth and is supposed to be the enemy, she is simply just too damn sweet and too damn kind to be spoken like that and he’ll be damned if he lets this person get away with it without a solid and humiliating verbal dressing down.ĭeacon - Being rude and sassy is his specialty and you can bet your ass he maximises the levels of both of these when he swoops into the conversation. Do you kiss your mother with that mouth?” He’s displeased greatly and later, at the mess hall when he’s charged with preparing everyone’s dinner in Sanctuary, this buffoon will be getting a rather lukewarm plate of salisbury. Making friends and being the best possible version of yourself is something everyone should strive for. Say, if you have any spare time later, I’d love to interview you for the paper…”Īda - She gives them a very stern talking to about showing respect to people and that being rude and insulting others ultimately gets you nowhere. “I’m Piper, reporter for the Publick Occurrences. “You’re a vault dweller?” She blurted, to which the woman turned back around and gave Piper a curious look. That’s when Piper spotted the big ‘111’ written on the woman’s back. “It’s fine.” Is all the stranger said, nodding politely before she turned back around to continue browsing Myrna’s wares. “I’m sorry to bother you, it’s just…you looked like…like someone I once knew.” Swallowing the painful memories, Piper mustered up the trademark ‘Publick Occurrences’ smile that only slightly wavered. Her mother was long gone now, along with the raider that killed her. Hazel eyes looked back at her in mild confusion as Piper smiled awkwardly, noting with disappointment that this was not her. “Hi, uhm,” Piper stopped short when she met the woman’s gaze. She reached forward, breathing heavily, and tapped the woman lightly on her shoulder. Her heart was thudding erratically in her chest as she walked up behind the woman with midnight black hair just a few centimetres longer than Piper’s own.
After coughing and spluttering in a not so dignified manner, she threw the caps she owed to Takahashi and quickly made her way to the woman. Only, she had looked so goddamn familiar that Piper inhaled the noodles she was meant to be chewing. She was chowing down noodles when she happened to glance up in time to see a woman dressed in a tight blue jumpsuit walk by towards Myrna’s shop. Piper first saw her in Diamond City’s marketplace and to say that she nearly died is an understatement.
