10 Things That Make The World A Better Place

1.) MacCready's cute chuckle. 2.) MacCready's random little dad jokes and puns. 3.) How Mac comes off as a tough, scary merc and then is secretly a cinnamon roll. 4.) His beautiful luscious hair that literally no one talks about. 5.) His dorky hat. 6.) Receiving the Wooden Toy Soldier when you reach max affinity because it means that you are literally one of the most important people in his life, ever. 7.) How smol MacCready is. 8.) The fact that this poor little man has been through so much in his life and still manages to have fun. 9.) How MacCready hides the fact that he really has a moral code and does care for humanity. 10.) Robert Joseph MacCready just makes the world a better place by existing.

What She Says: I'm fine.

What She's Thinking: Paladin Danse's story line is so tragic. Not only does he lose everything he cares about, he finds out that he never really had anything to care about necessarily. He has no idea how much was real and how much was fake. Did he ever even live in Rivet City or was that something the Institute programmed into his mind? Hell, he doesn't even know if his BEST FRIEND, the person he once considered to be the closest thing to family he had was real or programmed into him. He doesn't know if he genuinely wanted to serve in the Brotherhood or if that was places there by the Institute. Everything he had isn't gone because being gone implies you had something to begin with. He has nothing. Plus, he has never believed that synths are human in the first place. I think, in the back of his mind, he assumed that synths were just like machines. Machines don't truly feel like humans feel. They don't emote. And that's why I imagine this was even so confusing for him. He's a synth. He knows he is. But, he never thought synths felt sorrow and joy and pride like he did. In the dialogue with Maxson, he even mentions it like it makes him different from the other synths. I don't think that he's ever going to truly accept himself for what he is. No matter what, there's going to be a tiny part of him that hopes that it was all a mistake and that he's really human.

Companions as high school students

Cait: That one really hot girl that’s also really intimidating because she tries to kick everyone’s ass. Literally never at school because she’s always suspended.

Codsworth: that one really nice kid that everyone takes advantage of. Like, hey, Codsworth, can you do my ten page essay for me? “Of course. Anytime. I’m always happy to help my fellow student.”

Curie: That really smart person that everyone secretly resents because how the hell did you get an A on that test, Curie?! How the hell!

Danse: The hardcore jock. Plays every damn sport that school offers and gets really aggressive in gym class when people aren’t being a total try hard like him. Calm down there, Danse. Chill. This is not the Olympics, bud.

Dogmeat: He’s a dog, so…

Deacon: He’d be that really weird class clown. He’s always pulling weird pranks and once he puts all of the staplers in the school in jell-o and everyone’s like how the liggity lick did you get EVERY stapler encased in jell-o in one night and why the hell aren’t you suspended????!??! Also, on Halloween, he shows up in a Teletubbies costume and plays that creepy song from Halloween on the guitar through that halls all day.

Hancock: He’s that stoner in the back of the classroom that never has a pencil. You give him a new one every damn day, but he somehow loses it by third period. Seriously?! WHERE ARE YOU KEEPING THESE PENCILS THAT YOU LOSE THEM EVERY DAMN PERIOD?!??!

MacCready: He’s that dude who’s constantly sassing the teacher, yet never gets sent down the office. Never has his homework. Apparently doesn’t sleep at home because he’s always napping on his desk and no one seems to care??

Nick Valentine: he’s that adorable kinda dorky guy that you can talk to and flirt with for all four years of high school and become bests friends with him. But he won’t date you no matter what and you’re just kinda there like :/

Piper: Super friendly and nice chick that has a ton of friends. Everyone tells her their secrets and stuff, but she can’t keep her mouth shut and pretty soon everyone knows about what Jennifer did at Ryan’s house last night.

Preston Garvey: Total sweetheart guy that helps people out when they’re freaking about a presentation they’re doing in an hour. Always stands up for people being bullied and people love him bc he’s just so damn nice.

Strong: He’s that kid thats kinda scary and flips a desk in a fit of rage and then gets expelled for throwing a microscope at the biology teacher.

X6-88: I don’t know I just see him as that one really sassy band kid who literally is always just completely stone-faced, but he always makes salty-assed to everyone comments and no one can tell if he’s being serious or not.

No, but for reals Proctor Ingram as a companion. Like she literally just loves my nonstop sarcastic sass and that's a quality I would enjoy way more than I should.
