#Carla boone

Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3

What if Carla was alive out there and didn't have any memories. What if she was Courier Six. What if she wore a mask and and eyepatch and slayedddd. She doesn't remember her first name, only "Boone" and that she hates the Legion.

like ive said before, based on what boone says about her i cant help but imagine carla as a very flamboyant and larger than life person, very eccentric, passionate about things. and just as boone recounted, oddly enough she was not only immune to the boone proximity despair field, she was drawn to it

Boone is a man searching for sense in the nonsensical. He’s turned his life into a stage play, and reduced everyone in it to a role.

For every major moment in his life, he remembers himself as a passive observer.

The NCR chose him for First Recon, and he accepted for the pay. He describes his training as being broken down until following orders was automatic.

At Bitter Springs, he did what he was told, even knowing command didn’t understand the situation. He believes the only alternative would have been to kill himself.

He met Carla because he was standing around looking lost and she approached him. They moved to Novac because Manny brought them there.

And he describes Cottonwood Cove as “being forced to watch something you can’t stop.” His entire marriage was just a cruel plot twist, with himself and Carla as props rather than characters.

When he joins the Courier, he does it because he thinks the curtains are opening on the final act. The playwright (which he only describes as “something watching”) has drawn it out long enough and is finally going to end it. By all accounts, he’s looking forward to it — at least for the wait to be over.

But then he survives his quest, and he’s almost devastated. The world’s gone off-script. He doesn’t know his lines anymore. When he turns to the Courier, the person he took to be his harbinger of fate, it’s a desperate bid to make it make sense.

But the Courier was never an omen. They’re a maker of fate. On their advice, he becomes more proactive in his own life (for better or worse). Unfortunately, he can only be convinced the universe isn’t out to get him by sacrificing his conscience, and it doesn’t really bring him any relief to do so. So the best ending for Boone is to accept the framework he’s created for himself, but defy the stars and just keep going despite it all.

And, you know. One of these days he has to figure out the cosmos aren’t plotting his demise. Right?

"Manny was right" "Carla was right" they were both right actually. Carla was in a new place surrounded by strangers who didn't understand her and didn't really attempt to. She was probably suffering from some pretty severe depression and anxiety. her shyness was mistaken for aloofness and her honesty was mistaken for rudeness- autism moment !

Manny was one of the many who didn't understand her. But he was valid to be upset that all his friend's (situationship's?) time was now taken up by someone else - because he didn't understand she had support needs the same way Boone does. he understandably assumed when she went missing without explanation that she'd got up and left Boone - and Boone made no attempt to correct his assumption (for Boone reasons). and of COURSE he was outraged about this. fucking his friend is one thing, taking him away from manny is another thing, but LEAVING him???? to see Boone so utterly defeated??? unforgivable, irredeemable.

if manny knew the truth about Carla i think he'd start to see her from a different perspective. I think actually that, at their hearts, past their very different upbringings, Carla and Manny were SO alike. and thats part of why they didn't get along.

Also , Carla is thai 💗 that doesn't have anything to do with Manny i just thought people should know

I've been thinking about this and I'm 99% sure Carla is from a vault, "she seemed to him to be from a different time" the way he describes her just makes so much sense, no way she isn't.

how do you think carla lookes like?

[mushroommans-cache]

Craig and Carla….

[bellonathedragonborn]

The people who hate Boone I’m pretty sure don’t understand complex trauma or military programming.

Also what mercy killing is. Or leaving a shit hole town behind because everyone hated your spouse.

Just a silly thought. I’d rather be killed than a Legion brood mare for the rest of my life.

rough drafting carla comix

[datura-tea]

lord help me i want to make another oc, maybe another courier? just... someone who knew carla before she was carla boone, maybe even carla's best friend, who was there at the wedding and all, and who has come to visit carla from the strip - only to find her dead. teaming up with craig boone to avenge carla, establishing a rapport with him, maybe even a friendship, and then finding out from the guy that HE was the one to kill carla. his own wife. their best friend. god can you imagine the betrayal, the anguish, the rage... and all this knowing that carla can never come back, that nothing will come from their revenge but more and more blood on their hands. ahh
