#Ulysses/Arcade

[archersartcorner]

HIIIIIIIIIIII I love your art SO MUCH!!! you make it look so easy to simplify a complicated design and still have it look recognizable!! it's really admirable <3

for my question/ask:

please

tell me more about your thoughts on ulysses and arcade!!! i think their dynamic has so much potential and I rarely see them interact, it's a shame haha

OH THIS IS SO SWEET THANK YOU SO MUCH!! :D

And OUGH Ulysses & Arcade my beloveds… I think I got there thinkin about Ulysses interacting with the rest of the companions, and Arcade in particular I feel would get Ulysses to a pretty significant level, ya know? Arcade is so intelligent that I feel he could level with Ulysses’ own intelligence very directly, and just from a Nerd-To-Nerd viewpoint, those two could probably infodump with each other for hours and just KNOW what the other is talking about.

Ulysses is also a very traumatized character, and in-fandom I know people have some… divisive opinions about how he reacts to it, but the kind of trauma that’s most apparent in Ulysses’ character is one of the reasons I liked exploring the Legionnaires when I was still super into FNV, as the victims of the colonialist, fascist organization the Legion was. Arcade has such deep empathy for people, and he’s not like, a doormat, he’s very “Do no harm, take no shit,” but I’ve always been of the belief that Arcade will always stand up for someone wanting to be better, someone wanting to learn to do good no matter what their past is, particularly considering his own past with the Enclave. I like the idea, if Ulysses ever manages to pry himself from the Divide, that he finds the Followers and assists them from time to time, and that’s potentially how he and Arcade meet. Ulysses finds he doesn’t have to mince words with Arcade, doesn’t have to butcher his symbolism or sugarcoat his experiences for Arcade’s sake. Arcade just understands, in a way Ulysses isn’t sure anyone else has been able to, not even the Courier. And I feel like in turn Arcade feels more comfortable talking to Ulysses about his background, knowing he and Ulysses are on the same wavelength of “Life gave us some shit cards, but we still deserve to find peace and warmth.” Very much learning to end their respective cycles of violence, and learning they can do so together.

OUGH THATS QUITE A BIT here’s a quick doodle!! It’s not super great but I wanted to draw something for this ask when I saw it!

Been a while since I posted one of these. Some of the characters were kinda hard to place in a specific category for this prompt, but I think I got it somewhat accurate lol

[crapula-estatutario-nobinario]

I couldn't leave these two as sketches. Pegasus Ulysses and Unicorn Arcade.

Enjoy!

i ain't nothing but a lonely rider i do not know who is right, who is wrong sing this song for you to sing when i'm gone

my courier oscar sees himself as a very ordinary person in extraordinary circumstances, surrounded by one of a kind, exceptional people. it's a burden and a marvel for him to decide their fates. arcade’s very special too, even if he’s been trapped in mundanity for most of his life. his fate is yet to be decided

all my recent fallout requests in one post

[falloutnewnobody]

how i think each of the fnv companions/fan favorite characters would react if you asked to stack donuts on it (inspired by the fo4 companion dick donut post) (it not required) with little to no explanation

Cass: 100% absolutely. she brought it up. you're paying for the doughnuts

Boone: Very much no.

Arcade: no, but you can confirmed bachelor him into a hesitant yes that he instantly regrets

Veronica: yes, mostly out of curiosity

raul: no, and he questions your sanity.

vulpes: would call you a degenerate and probably stab you.

Ulysses: absolutely, but gets mad that he didn't think of it first.

benny: he's already done it, but will do it again. brags about how many doughnuts he can fit on it

Joshua graham: would let out the worlds' most disappointed sigh and tell you to get out of his sight and go to church

mr house: he'd say something about how, while he appreciates the boldness of asking and the scientific intentions, there's no way in hell he'd let you do that.

RingofromGoodprings (because i will live and die a ringofromGoodsprings truther): enthusiastic yes, not becuase he's particuarly interested in the activity, but becuase the Courier is like his bestie with a totally different job/work schedule that he sees once a month and actively looks forward to doing stupid shit for the bit with

yes man: he'd say yes, but in that passive aggressive way that makes it clear that he's genuinely worried about your mental health.

any of the think tankers: yes, for science
