Music for A Radioactive Calamity of Love, Bombs & Gore and The UnTitledverse, plus a template for an Original Works OC/s. You can listen under the cut below:

First song for Abigail and Molly. I've probably done this before (maybe? Or was that a different song?), but either way, let's talk about them. Now since in Red Dead Redemption: Peace For Thy Sinners is primarily centered from Maddelyn Darling's POV, we'll only view Abigail and Molly's relationship through what Maddie witnesses of it, and even then she's not that reliable of a narrator as she's often right for the wrong reasons LOL. Case in point; she misses all the signs that Abigail may not be as human as the gang believes she is (being a shapeshifting alien that feeds off emotions and all). However, in Mario: Mother's Boy, there is most certainly POV flashbacks from Abigail herself while she raises Mario, decades after 1899 and Molly's passing, and Abigail misses Molly; like, a lot. Molly had been pretty much the only human that Abigail ever fell for, and Molly's poetic prowess is what caused Abigail to reconsider her own thoughts on humanity as more than a food source. Now in Mario: Mother's Boy, many decades after Molly was alive, Abigail, although she mourns for the woman, comes to accept the loss and move pass it, especially after confronting her own frail mortality while teaching her son how to survive and thrive, ever when her time eventually comes. "Little Bit Of Love" by Tom Grennan is, by my canonization, Abigail Emmet and Molly O'Shea's ship song. Listen below:

"I've been holding onto pieces Swimming in the deep end Tryna find my way back to you 'cause I'm needing A little bit of love A little bit of love, a little bit of love

Lately, I've been counting stars And I'm sorry that I broke your heart It's something that I didn't want for you But I'm stepping on broken glass And I know this is my final chance All I'm tryna do is find my path to you

I've got voices in my head and there's a deafening silence I've got voices in my head and I can't lie

I've been holding onto pieces Swimming in the deep end Tryna find my way back to you 'cause I'm needing A little bit of love A little bit of love, a little bit of love Just like the air I'm breathing These open wounds ain't healing Tryna find my way back to you 'cause I'm needing A little bit of love A little bit of love, a little bit of love A little bit of love

Lately, I've been waking up In a dreamy state, calling your name Stayed up too late just thinking of you Now I'm knocking on every door 'Cause I heard you moved from twenty-two Has it been that long? I guess time just flew

I've got voices in my head and there's a deafening silence I've got voices in my head and I can't lie

I've been holding onto pieces Swimming in the deep end Tryna find my way back to you 'cause I'm needing A little bit of love A little bit of love, I need a little love Just like the air I'm breathing These open wounds ain't healing Tryna find my way back to you 'cause I'm needing A little bit of love A little bit of love, a little bit of love A little bit of love

I tried to fly but I used my wings too soon Now everything got me thinking of you I tried a million times to cut you loose

Another song more focused on some info dumps about the Red Dead Redemption: Peace For Thy Sinners WIP, and especially about Maddelyn Darling, or Maddie for short. Here's the summarized backstory; Maddie's childhood was spent living with her aunt, Kara Darling, whom was a nun. In 1886, Kara had taken a nine-year-old Maddie on a carriage to another church, but the O'Driscoll Gang had jumped their carriage, taking both hostage. Maddie managed to eventually escape them, but Kara... wasn't so lucky. Maddie ended up bumping into Abigail Emmet, as well as Dutch van der Linde and Hosea Matthews, where she was taken in by them considering what she told them of Kara's fate. Plus it was good to have a someone small and fast and below notice to pick pockets. While Maddie spent most of her time under Abigail's tutelage (especially when it came to outlawing), Dutch and Hosea pitched in their own lessons as well; Dutch gave Maddie tips and tricks on spotting which people to rob blind and how to improvise an act, while Hosea ensured Maddie knew how to read, find her way back to camp and spot checks. In 1887, when Maddie was ten, Dutch and Hosea came back to camp with a 14-year-old Arthur Morgan. Weary of each other at first, eventually over time, they established a sibling-like bond. From there the gang only seemed to grow, though at some point they met the O'Driscoll Gang. Although Maddie recognized the leading brothers (one of which was Colm), there was a truce established at the time, so she remained quiet, and hoped business could be over quickly, avoiding interactions with the gang members. It wasn't until Colm's brother ambushed Maddie to silence her after recognizing who she was, though Dutch had been in the vicinity and put him down before any harm could be inflicted on Maddie. This death lead to the truce ending, and a blood feud like no other began, especially after Colm kills Annabelle, the woman Dutch loved. In 1882, and entering some town, a fifteen-year-old Maddie discovered after making a friendship with a girl her age named Steph, that her attraction may go beyond just boys, although she kept the gang in the dark of such information. In 1885, the gang brought in 12-year-old John Marston, and initially one would think since Maddie's got that brother-sister bond with Arthur, it'd be the same with John. Well, yes, but actually no; as Maddie takes one look at John's sopping wetness and finds that, since they're six years apart in age, it's her duty as John's older sister to pick on him. Years go by, and Maddie's established herself as an outlaw worthy of respect, especially since Abigail personally tutored her. It isn't until the ferry robbery in 1899 that 32-year-old Maddie feels uncertainty the first time in a long time, and finds arguments becoming more frequent (especially since Micah Bell was introduced into the gang). When Sadie is saved by the O'Driscolls and brought into the gang, Maddie is one of Sadie's most frequent interactions, especially when settling in. Fair warning, Maddie and Sadie's story is a bit of a slow burn, and with typical canon compliance, things get worse before they get better.

"The many miles we walked The many things we learn The building of a shrine Only just to burn May the wind be at your back Good fortune touch your hand May the cards lay out a straight All from your command

That's the way it is That's the way it is That's the way it is That's the way it is

Blue heron leaves the northern sky Trust the journey to new highs What's the meaning of this scar If we don't learn how to heal? Should we ever be apart Then how does it feel?

That's the way it is That's the way it is That's the way it is That's the way it is That's the way it is

Shine light into darkness Shine light into darkness!"

And final song for my Resident OC Vega from my Fallout 76 WIP What Happened To Vault Number 76? in my A Radioactive Calamity of Love, Bombs & Gore series. You may be asking yourself; when exactly does this WIP begin? To that I say, "With Arcane Urias and Matthias Talos re-entering the world via breach through reality as they wonder 'wtf is up with this place?'" But where does Vega's story begin, you may ask. And to that I say it begins with the party the night before... the Reclamation Day celebration. The day before everyone leaves the vault to recreate society once more. And the day before everyone collectively decides to leave Vega's pathetic ass to oversleep in the vault with one killer hangover since no one really likes her. Anyway, this is what I imagine was going through Vega's wasted mind throughout the party back when she was a relatively normal human being. Listen below:

"Drop-toppin', playin' our favorite CDs Pullin' up to the parties Tryna get a little bit tipsy

Don't stop, make it pop, DJ, blow my speakers up Tonight, I'ma fight till we see the sunlight Tick tock on the clock But the party don't stop, no Don't stop make it pop, DJ, blow my speakers up Tonight, I'ma fight till we see the sunlight Tick tock on the clock But the party don't stop, no!"

Here's the One-sided Love Template for Rouske and the mysterious woman that haunts him. Don't let this template fool you about the nature of their relationship; this whole relationship between Rouske and this person is intentionally supposed to be ambiguous. The relationship could be either romantic, platonic, familial, estranged, etc (as intended for a very ambiguous relationship between Rouske and this woman from his past; whether she be a lost lenore, a friend who left Yahar'ghul, a family member who died, or simply a stranger he met once and never again, or something else entirely), but what remains the same is that you don't know, and depending what your interpretation ends up being, either he also doesn't know (because bad memory from living longer than average human, a result from constant multiverse traveling use) or only he knows (but he doesn't want to think about it). In this instance, you can still interpret this relationship as romantic, or not, but I'll just say this; regardless, it makes no difference since the end result is the same. View below:
