Hey how would the companions react to sole screaming random vines while at a fight??
I had to go watch a bunch of Vine compilations for this. I was also half tempted to add Gifs to this one.
Prompt: Companions react to Sole screaming vines while in a fight
Excluded companions: none
Note: if there are any characters, ie: faction leaders or let’s say synth!Codsworth that anyone would like to be included please feel free to ask!
Warnings: Swearing, vine references, violence under cut
Cait: “Turn off the flash you fucking moron!” She didn’t know whether to be more angry at Sole for shouting advice at the raider in the power armour or at the raider for actually taking it- turning the headlamp off of their helmet and shrouding the lot of them in darkness, making her lose their position and making this fight drag on longer than it needed too. You can bet she was going to give Sole a piece of her mind once this was over.
Codsworth:“ I don’t know what y'all AAAAAAHHHH you better stop stop bitch STOP AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH” They’d just left the Slog when Sole had decided that the base of some Forged was too close to the settlement for their liking, so they’d went over too clean it out, but now Sole was being chased around the yard by someone wielding a flamer and, as Codsworth fought valiantly to go aid them he couldn't help but hope the good people living at the Slog were far enough away too not notice the spectacle Sole was making of themselves.
Curie:“I won’t hesitate, bitch!” Despite the fact they were currently in a firefight with a small gang of Rust Devils and taking cover behind a wall, Curie still gives Sole a scandalised gasp and turns to them slightly to ask if such language is strictly necessary? But finding out it was a form of pre-war humour definitely caught her interest, when the situation was less dire she would like to question Sole about it, as she had not been exposed to this “vine” herself.
Deacon: He’d made a joke as they were being shot at by Gunners when Sole had hollered at him from their side of the makeshift barricade “This is the Comedy Police, the jokes too funny!”
They hadn’t expected the sharp smile he shot them, and they really hadn't expected him to scream back “I’M NOT GOING BACK TO JAIL!!”. Somehow, some way, Deacon knows, and Sole’s not sure if they should be happy or scared. Deacon himself is delighted.
Dogmeat:“THE POWER OF CHRIST COMPELS YOU!” Sole had taught Dogmeat to bark whenever they said this, the feral ghouls they were fighting paid no mind to the weird command but Dogmeat was a dog who liked to bark, and knowing Sole also liked his barking, so much so they had a command for it, made him very happy indeed.
John Hancock:“This bitch empty, YEET!” Sole had said this as they threw a grenade at the supermutants they were currently warring against outside Goodneighbor, he’d heard old pre-war ghouls quote similar phrases as the ones Sole often did and needless to say his interest was piqued. He’d want to be in on the joke, but he’d also want to impress Sole on his knowledge of their pre-war “vine”.So he’d ask Daisy about it when they made it back to Goodneighbor.
Nick Valentine: They’d just met Travis outside of Beantown Brewery when Sole handed him a few frags before saying “You got this Travis, make em wait for it. Boom”. It takes a moment for what they said to sink in but when it does Nick’s head whips around to face Sole, sporting a look of dawning, horrified realisation at memories of Old Nick getting bombarded with new recruits showing him short videos that they’d lovingly called “Vines” and quoted so constantly it all but became a new language, separated not by land but by age. He takes the frags back off Travis much to the radio host’s obvious relief and silently dreads a resurgence of those short videos.
Danse:“I’m a bad bitch you can’t kill me!” They say this even as he’s hoisting them out of the way of an oncoming rocket and shielding them from the blast that was way too close for his liking, he’d think they were on chems but he’d spent long enough around them to know they were just like that, and could only really tell them to keep an eye on their surroundings because they absolutely could be killed.
Piper: The way Sole yelled “Whoever threw that grenade, your mom’s a hoe!” at the scavengers currently trying to kill them got a snort out of her, Sole’s trash talking was hardly what she’d call intimidating or scathing, she’d heard better from the children in Diamond City, Hell, she’d heard better from Nat! But Piper decided what it lacked in potency it made up for in charm that was distinctly Blue. She didn’t mind it, though to save face for ‘The Sole Survivor‘ she’d probably leave those particular quotes out of the papers.
Preston:“Look at that fucking cornfield bud! That is a nice cornfield, tell you that right now!” Soles sounding kind of hysterical when they say this, and even though it unnerved him, he supposed he couldn’t blame them, they ha’d only just made it to the settlement to find raiders smashing up the place, particularly the corn field Sole had planted themselves by hand. They’d managed to stop the raid before any real damage was done, but he was still going to suggest the General take a break before they headed out again.
MacCready: They’re up on a roof scouting out the area below when Sole asks to look down the sight of his rifle, he lets them and watches as they scan along the road, then stopping to look at a sign not too far away. “Road work ahead? Uh, yeah, I sure hope it does.” it gets a little laugh out of him, though whether what they just said was actually funny or if it was just the way they said it he couldn't tell. It’s enough of a dad joke that he’ll probably use it on Duncan.
Strong:“BE GONE, THOT!” Strong doesn't know what a thot is, and he doesn’t really care unless it’s another stupid human word for ‘milk’, but he does appreciate how good at punting raiders across distances Sole is with that wooden bat.
X6-88:They were fighting Brotherhood soldiers when Sole got slammed into by one in power armour, causing X6 to flinch ever so slightly at the grimly loud crunch their arm made as they hit the ground, unsurprisingly they were instantly back up with a stimpack in their hand, because of course they were, he’s not even a little bit surprised.“Ahh fuck, I can’t believe you’ve done this” at their completely dead-pan comment towards the hunk of metal marching towards them again, he wondered if they're in shock from the hit or if they hit their head when they hit the ground and were concussed. But they’re back too fighting in no time and, weird comments aside, they had a mission to complete.
Ada:“When will you learn!? When will you learn, that your actions have consequences!!?” Though Ada agrees with the sentiment, she’d hope the high-pitched way Sole delivered it in wasn’t supposed to inspire fear in their current enemies, though it did apparently confuse some of the Rust Devils long enough for the two of them to get some shots in, which she can appreciate.
Old Longfellow: You didn’t have to be a genius to know the ‘old’ in Old Longfellow’s name wasn’t ironic, but as he was fighting Trappers alongside Sole they apparently had the urge to yell “Don’t fuck with me! I have the power of God and anime on my side! AAAAAAHH!!”, and in that moment he could have sworn he’d aged another ten years, the pitch of their voice as they flung themselves bodily at one of the Trappers cutting through him and putting him in a foul mood, he really needed a drink after this.
Porter Gage:“Bitch I hope the fuck you do, you’ll be a dead son of a bitch I tell you that!” Hell yeah the boss’s trash talk game was spot on today, there they were, beating the shit out of some settlers when one of the wimpy fuckers decided to get ballsy and go to take a swing at Sole while their back was turned when the Overboss whipped around and said that, their voice promising real threat, stopping the poor sod before they could do any damage. Needless too say he thought it was pretty cool.
Addendum:I do not have a beta reader and I am dyslexic, I do proof read everything but am bound to make mistakes- and I would like to apologise in advance for any I have missed.
