So proud of it, they posted it twice. The unedited sketch of Ike. He sold Lone Wanderer bikes and [insert other canon makes here, if any] at Ike's Bikes, Motorcycle Independent Dealership, nr. [NW of map somewhere], Mass.

OC-tober

27. Midnight (Flower)

It was on some regular patrol when I stumbled across it. I hardly recognised the place to start with; raiders had covered it in bad carpentry. They were long gone but something white moved, catching my eye.

Jasmine flowers. Larger, certainly than any I'd seen before, waving in the breeze, stubbornly growing over the remains of something. A bike. A red, Lone Wanderer motorbike… with two V's painted in black under the faded, reclining figure of… no, it can't be.

My old 'bike. The Mistress of Mystery. The one I sold to buy Codsworth for Nora.

I staggered back and my heel caught something, causing a dull glochenspiel sound. I looked around to see what I'd knocked: a skeletal foot, its boot long gone. I cleared the yellowed, dry creeping jasmine away and seeing the old sleeveless leather jacket, delicate flowers embroidered down its back, I knew exactly where I was.

'Ike's Bikes, Motorbike Independent Dealership'. How many hours had I spent here, learning mechanics' skills from my dear old friend? How many hours on the road, with our gang, Ike's MIDknights?

I called to the small gaggle of Minutemen who were patrolling with me and ordered them to strip every last rotten timber off the garage. I hunted around and find a shovel to dig a long overdue grave.

Ike had lost his wife when they were still young. Her name? Jasmine, of course. Ike had bought Mistress off me and it looked like he was in the process of a full bike strip-down when the end came. Most of the old girl was junk but I managed to salvage a few special parts that my Pop had helped me to upgrade the engine with. She could rest here, under the flowers with old Ike resting nearby. She'd keep him company.

"Thanks, Ike. Ride easy to the next journey, old fellah."

Thanks to my brother of Arcane Armoury for the commissioned Ike's M.I.D.knights biker gang logo(if you love Steampunk & sci-fi props, look him up on Etsy/Instagram/FB!)

You know you’re an old ass when the plate for your first new Harley expired in 1991.
