#and also line up with the same ''desdemona was lambda 8's wife'' logic

i know this post is three years old now, but 1. OP i love you, and 2. i have an addition! in particular in regards to the possibility of deacon being "john D" from the RRHQ terminal

and it's all from this particular line:

Player Default: You really founded it? Deacon: {Happy} Sure. Me and Johnny D and Watts. Hell, that was 60? 70 years ago? After a while you lose count.

"me and johnny D and watts." aka... deacon... the dude namedropped in the RRHQ... and where did this "watts" name come from?

well, we do have a known railroad agent with the name of watts -- victoria watts. she was the railroad representative in the replicated man

now, we know that deacon will borrow from the world around him constantly in his lies -- but, if there's a chance that deacon was john D, and we know he was in the capital wasteland during fallout 3, and then there's that line about that time when he "was a girl for a few months"...

"me and johnny D and watts" could very easily be a "me, myself, and i" joke -- one that only he would be in on

i think deacon’s idle voice lines reveal a lot more about him as a person than anything he says during affinity conversations, and here’s why

get ready for a long meta post about deacon that nobody asked for, because we’re deep diving today.
