Welcome to the official Preston Appreciation Week blog! With the help of the Simps for Preston discord server, we’d like to announce that we’ll be hosting an entire week of Preston goodness for the 2021 year! Because if there’s one thing we all need after a year like 2020, it’s pure sunshine in human form!
From April 4th [4/4/21] to April 10th [4/10/21], we’ll be sharing content of everyone’s favorite Minuteman. Content from fan art, fan fiction, fan edits, videos, mods, whatever you want to make, we’ll share!
i haven't done anything for preston appreciation week (or P.A.W. , as no one calls it) but maybe i'll go ahead and share a little theory/ headcanon i have: i'm like 90% sure that at some point, deacon approached preston about joining the railroad and preston politely turned him down because of the narrow scope of their vision - why help 1 synth when you could save 100 people, including that one synth?
bathesda really dropped the ball on fleshing out his character as much as he deserved, but that one little tidbit does make me like him all the more - preston garvey: the man who wants to save the world ♥

Description:
Preston Garvey was down on his luck. The militia he'd given his whole life to support had fallen at the hands of the Gunners, the settlers so many of his comrades had died to protect were reduced to a meer handful, and all he had left to defend was a tiny village called Sanctuary and the lives inside. It wasn't much, but he would be damned before he let anything bad happen to it.
Robert Joseph MacCready was down on his luck. The Gunners had finally pushed him over the edge - he'd never been a good person in his life, but he wouldn't allow himself to become a monster just for a few caps. Unfortunately, when you sign up with the Gunners, you're supposed to give them your whole life, and they don't take too kindly to being cheated.
MacCready and Preston were at a low point in their lives, and then along came Nora - a woman from before the war with an unusual skillset for her time and more determination than one person had any right to be. Preston can't trust MacCready, but he trusts Nora, and when she asked him to save the merc's life he couldn't refuse.

yay! i'm finally posting this other fic of mine - and just in time for the last day of preston appreciation week! it's technically not about preston in particular, but it's the first work i've written that has him in the spotlight for so much of it. i had a lot of fun writing him, so i hope he's just as fun to read about.
as an aside... i'm trying a new post format for tumblr. since tumblr has made it nearly impossible for posts to get any traction with links in them, i'll be linking to the fic in a reblog of this post (check the notes). the fic is currently up on my ao3. peace <3

Once again, we’d like to thank everyone for a wonderful Preston Appreciation Week, and we hope to pull it off again next year!
This is my day seven piece for @preston-appreciation-week! I decided to do something for mine and @infraternitas’s Arranged Marriage AU, with King Preston, done in the style of Alphonse Maria Mucha. I’m incredibly happy with how this turned out!

Remember? How could he forget. He carries Colonel Hollis's dogged determination, Kyle Long's infectious laugh, Sara's smile, Annie's kindness, Furlan's conviction and his parent's love. You can practically see it cloaking him in light. The flame of their living hope, Preston Garvey of the Commonwealth Minutemen. That single spark was enough to re-ignite the people's volunteer militia, when focussed through the lense of the one we have come to know as General, the sole survivor of Vault 111.
