[sneakyaxolotl]

hello tumblr today I would like to you to meet my courier oc

like every other courier oc in the world, arlo is gay for yes man They met when Arlo was looking for Benny, and he accidentally got Yes Man to have romantic feelings for him

he's a lil special when it comes to computer science and robots, and he uses romance and smooth moves to wriggle himself out of situations here is some lore with him and my friend's courier Xad @thefiendly Arlo wasn't the 6th courier because he wasn't tasked with the platinum chip, however he was targeted by Benny while he was looking for the platinum chip. He was courier 5. Xad was the one who had the chip, but he gave it to Arlo when they met in OWB. Arlo may have accidentally gotten Xad's arm cut off but thats a story for another day i feel like i'm yapping so i'm gnna shut uiop[

here is some old art of him

“Hiiii update, got sorta kicked out of the town er… Some crazy mean can guy thought I was a spy or something I can’r remember- and a ghost? And shot me! Very rude, I think that means I wasn’t wanted there! But I also have a dog now too so it’s fine!”

"Aleksei, what? Slow down, what happened?"

[alice-lupine]

"I have this weird feeling that I got before the second battle of hoover dam, a feeling where something bad's going to happen."

[They look directly into your eyes and say this dead seriously.]

"We need an exorcist or a priest for this."

-@a-fellow-courier

No clue where to find someone like that. The best idea I’ve got is someone from new cannan or the king since I think he’s actually ordained to do weddings in freeside.

[doctorrrmobius]

"Hey doc, do you have the time for a letter?"

-@a-fellow-courier

Why, indeed I do! How about.. hmm… B!!!

[legatiuslanate]

[Five rolls up, in courier uniform instead of their ncr clothing with their messenger bag.]

"I believe someone asked for a new keyboard?"

-@a-fellow-courier

[The Legate glares down at the courier, arms crossed against his massive armored chest.] That would be I, Tabellarius. My old one happened to meet an unfortunate end.. I blame the profligates that congregate on there. Now give it here.

What are your thoughts on the people you’ve met so far? / What are Kimball’s thoughts on the other RP characters?

it’s… quite a mixture of folk, that’s for sure. you never know what you’re going to run into out here anymore.

general oliver is capable, but he needs to be more tactful. nevertheless, he’s a good man. hardworking. not a slouch who needs hand outs. and i’ve heard about his adventures in the mojave and beyond. impressive. i wonder how the negotiations with the screaming eagles are faring..

the fifth courier has got a strange air to them, and they’ve got skills even i’ve never heard of before, let alone seen. a damn good shot, too. i admire their work with the baja rangers.

speaking of which.. the baja rangers are the best damn thing the NCR has to offer. i’m especially proud of the K-9 unit. those boys (and girls, i suppose) are the backbone of the NCR. they’re tough as nails, and loyal to the core. i trust them more than i trust anyone else. if everyone in this big damn desert was like the baja rangers, life’d be a lot easier.

that fool in a beret, on the other hand..

he’s a decent shooter, i’ll give him that, but he’s got a stick stuck so far up his ass it’d take a whole caravan of brahmin to pull it out. it’s a shame he’s disgraced himself as much as he has. he had so much promise.

don’t get me started on that alice girl either. good God, she’s a pain in the neck. she’s absolutely psychotic! makes me wonder what the hell kind of past she has.

samuel…

he’s a good man. he’s got a mind as sharp as a sword, and a tongue to match. shame about his wife. she seemed capable, but proved herself traitorous through and through.

i suppose that’s just about all of them. you’ll have to excuse me now. i’m a busy man.

“Ooh! Marble.”

[One Stardust Marble Added] “Shiny…”

Hello Five ☺️ I hope this question is not Insensitive . So you are “they” correct? Initially , I thought this meant you were Many. Now I understand that you are neither male nor female ( meaning you have obtained the powers of both, you can Office and Kitchen, very good). However 🤔 Perchance you are not only Genderless but also Many, which would be Quite Badass 😁

"I know who you are by your tone. Hi June."

"Anyways, yes, that's correct. Special power I have, I am male and female depending on how people see me. it means I can go anywhere, except unauthorized sites on a military base."

"I am both genderless and both genders at the same thing. I think if we weren't in a world with mutated creatures, I'd be put in a mental asylum due to the fact my repeated deaths have messed up my sense of self!"

[The door closes behind him. His brain case leans against the wall behind him before slowly lowering himself down to the floor, the beautifully written twelve page letter going down with him. He stares at it, silently studying every letter, every smudge, every crease, and every fold in the paper.

He remembered.

Oh, how Mobius missed him.

He lets out a shuddering gasp. It's all his fault. His own fear, his paranoia, had done this. He has broken them, had broken them all, his friends, his... Klein.

Klein had once loved him. Once, before the war, before... their fall. Had they been a couple? He could not tell. It has been so long. All he knew was that they once had deep feelings for each other. He didn't even know how deep those feelings went. But they were love. Real love.

And he had ruined everything. He had turned his only love into a paranoid, psychotic wreck, and then destroyed his memory. All that's left of Klein is some hollowed out, crazed husk. The love they once had is long dead. And it's all Mobius' fault.

But, as he read, his memory began to get fuzzy. Words danced across pages. He could not remember the words. He could not remember the meaning. All he could remember is the feeling of sadness and loss he could not fathom.

He sat there for minutes, or hours, lost in his thoughts, until the programmed recursion ended. All thoughts about the letter vanished from his mind, taking with them all his previous emotions. He stared at the letter, puzzled, before putting it away without reading the last few words. Three of them. All he had left was the familiar feeling of sorrow.]

Yawn~

A full uniform Galileo appeared in Novac, a soft flash of light would have been seen if anyone had been looking there at this hour.

So, barely visible in the fading light he slowly made his way to the Courier’s door, pausing slightly before knocking.

(Yes he’s technically breaking one of his personas if 5 tells- buuut at this point 5 def doesn’t know why he’s there lmao)

[the sound of footsteps gets closer as the courier is rudely awakened from their slumber]

“What the hell do you want, Crawford? What now, you’re going to have me pay rent on it? You said I could use it.”

[the door opens on the chain lock and a sleep deprived Five opens the door and it takes them a few seconds to realize who’s there.] “Oh, hey, galileo. Why are you here? It’s 3 in the morning.”

[doctorrrmobius]

"Hey Doc! Did I leave anything back here? Trying to make sure because well... Novac no longer exists and all my stuff was back there aka it also no longer exists."

-@a-fellow-courier

Oh, I don’t know, let me see… hmm.. Someone left some empty cans of cram and empty cigarette packets, and... yes... some used duct tape! Did you want those? Ah, probably not.. er.. What was that about Novac?

“This your cat?”

Sightless, colored!

Cave-dwelling deathclaws sunburn exceptionally easily; their skin is thin enough that burns can result in deep tissue or organ damage. If they take up residence near settlements it's common to see mirrors and glass lenses around homes and livestock pens.

Propellers beat overhead, a deep black Vertibird coming to land a solid foot from the cave. Kaleb opened the side door, grabbing the minigun and firing it up into the sky to make sure Fives was up. Two other Enclave soldiers could be seen inside, with two pilots up front.

"PANTAFIIIIIIIIIVE! ARE YOU READY TO GET HIGHER THAN YOU'VE EVER BEEN IN YOUR LIFE!?"

@atombombskilledtheradiostar

[They stumble out of the cave with all their stuff on them.]

"Bloody hell, Smokey! Did you have to do that, It's 1pm!"
