You were better to me than I've been to myself

For me, there's you and there ain't nobody else

james and catherine actually got married the same day james proposed. it was catherine’s idea, being the spontaneous one of the two. she didn’t wanna wait—everyone they would’ve wanted to invite to their wedding was already there anyway, so after announcing their engagement to the rest of the project purity team, they put together a wedding in the lab within the hour.

paper signs taped to the wall, notepad sheets stuffed in an empty volumetric flask for a bouquet, already dressed in white with their lab coats. and neither would want it any other way.

I feel like I need to share this because idk if Europeans are familiar with the presence of Aldi in the US, but at least especially in my area they’ve been growing a lot recently. Like Aldi bought out some local failing grocery chains where I live (Louisiana) and have opened Aldis in all these somewhat rural communities and small towns, which for the record I’m fine with

But as a result of this they are advertising a lot more in my area and also in many cases, the people in these areas have never been confronted with Aldi or any European grocery store. So the ads that Aldi is pushing out to its new US customer base feature a cowboy shopping at Aldi who is explaining to new Aldi customers how Aldi works. Like this cowboy is explaining you gotta put a quarter in the shopping cart and why there are very little name brands. A cowboy is how they want to reach their American customer base. They gave us a cowboy

It's about a guy who goes to Hell. Pretty interesting stuff.

he would not fucking say that, but with disability.. he would not fucking be able bodied. sick n tired of characters walking away from multiple life changing injuries without a scratch. let’s get some natural consequences in here.

give that knife/sword fight survivor nerve damage. give the character who was shot in the gut a stoma. give that fire survivor lung damage and an oxygen cannula. give that leg injury survivor a cane. give that starvation survivor gastroparesis. give that spinal injury survivor a manual chair or powerchair.

while we’re at it, give your characters congenital disabilities too, just because. give them intellectual and development disabilities. give them acquired and postviral illnesses. dare to make somebody bedbound. for me.

This with Courier 6 lowkey.

Like obviously I support personal interpretations but guys how are we all not collectively agreeing that their brain is FUCKED UP.

That they are mentally disabled in some way shape or form.

People getting head injuries and living isn’t some fallout phenomenon it’s a real thing and it can leave people fucked up for life.

Why don’t we give them memory problems???

Or have them react to situations extremely disproportionately, and be prone to anger???

Or even just slur their speech a little bit because it takes a moment to figure out how to talk!

I want more couriers with actual brain injuries from getting shot in the head!!!

I appreciate that people put in the effort to amend fnv’s bad decision of not adding in a scar of any kind, that was a very very cool decision almost all of us went with.

But I just wanna see angst about the courier’s brain going to shit because it’s got a severe injury and I wanna see how all the companions react to it. I wanna see how BENNY reacts to what HE did.
