#dog the molerat

[apraxvalith]

Can I give Dog a little treat and perhaps; a little tiara 👑

Absoutely. She loves the attention ☺️

[somethingaboutmint]

Going thru my files and i dont think i ever posted this doodle of boone with a molerat

[ghostly-smiles]

Idk if its a glitch or just something that happens by coincidence but whenever i go into workshop mode in fallout dogmeat will follow whoever my current companion is around. He just stays right next to them, stops when they stop, etc. Right now its Hancock and its the cutest thing seeing them walk around the settlement together

Terra and her molerats

[wandercr]

oh, since the tv show has pretty much canonized the unrealistic, odd stuff in the games ... eliana has the animal friend perk and, for the life of her, cannot understand why everyone complains about yao guai, they always leave her alone!

[nukaberries]

Heyo! If it's not too much trouble, could I get the FO4 companions reacting to a Sole who's super good with wild animals? Like the animal friend and wasteland whisperer perks but they're out here cuddling wild molerats and are able to pet Deathclaws. If that's not too much to ask, thank you muchly. Love your stuff!

I don't play around with Animal Friend and Wasteland Whisperer as much as I'd like to. I did once befriend a Deathclaw in Fallout 3, who died about five seconds later. He was great while he lasted though. Anyways, I'm glad you're enjoying the requests, thank you so much! I hope this one lives up to your expectations!

Companions React to an Animal Loving Sole (Includes: Cait, Codsworth, Curie, Danse, Deacon, Hancock, MacCready, Nick, Piper, Preston and X6-88)

Cait She'll immediately assume that Sole has some kind of death wish the first time she sees them carelessly approaching a wild Molerat with their hand held out. It's only when Sole doesn't lose a limb to the creature that Cait finds herself somewhat impressed, although, she makes a comment about how they'll probably catch all sorts of diseases from 'that rodent'. She doesn't think too much of it afterwards, that is until she finds Sole coming back into Sanctuary with a Deathclaw in tow, it's at that point that Cait will start to question Sole's sanity. Eventually, she gets used to finding Sole hanging out with Radscorpions, as though they aren't known for killing people without hesitation. She still finds it weird and she still isn't happy about that one time she woke up to a Radroach casually jumping around her head, but it becomes one of those things about Sole that she just accepts.

Codsworth Having known Sole for as long as he has, Codsworth is no stranger to his old friend's affinity for all different kinds of animals. He can still recall the amount of stray dogs and cats that Sole had brought into their home before the war, despite their spouse worrying that one might jump up at Shaun one day. If anything, Codsworth actually likes that this is something that hasn't changed about Sole - there's a lot of bad in the Wasteland and Codsworth knows better than any of the other companions how much this new world has changed Sole, so he finds it comforting to see some aspects of him are still the same. Of course, Codsworth is still sure to keep his distance from the creatures that Sole befriends; sure, they may like Sole, but who's to say they'll feel the same way about his robot companion?

Curie She loves having the opportunity to see the creatures of the Commonwealth up close and if Sole's happy to befriend every Mirelurk in sight, then Curie is more than happy to join him. Once Sole gets an animal to settle down, they usually tend to warm up to Curie immediately after - there was an incident with a Radstag kicking her over once, Curie doesn't like to talk about it. She also finds it interesting to see how the different animals in the wasteland have adapted and mutated to their environment and is more than happy to discuss it with Sole, if they're willing to listen.

Paladin Danse Initially, he thinks that stopping to pet every abomination that they come across is a waste of both their time and he makes this very clear to Sole. He tries to shut down Sole's attempts to befriend these animals as often as he can, although sometimes he can't help but find it quite mesmerising to watch a Deathclaw peacefully wander about right before his eyes. Still, it's only when Sole manages to tame a whole pack of rabid molerats that Danse wonders if their odd love for animals isn't so bad after all, not that he'd ever swallow his pride for long enough to admit that to Sole.

Deacon He does try to get used to the idea that Sole is going to pet every dangerous, man-eating creature that they come across, but it just freaks him out way too much. The stray mongrels following them around and wanting to play fetch are cute, even he can't deny that, although he'd prefer Dogmeat over them any day, but there's no way he'll ever get used to turning around and seeing a Deathclaw following after them like a big puppy. All Deacon asks is that Sole doesn't take it personal if he leaves them to fend for themselves when it comes to dealing with animals, he'd just prefer not to give a Molerat head scratches if he can help it.

Hancock Considering Sole chose to take him on their travels, he doesn't find it all that surprising that they'd want to pick up every other ugly stray they come across too. Admittedly, it's probably one of his favourite things about travelling with Sole, he'll never warm up to any of the bugs - Mirelurks are a firm no for him - that somehow become docile in Sole's presence, but he's got a soft spot for the Molerats. He'd love to bring one back home with him, for the sake of having some company and a mascot for Goodneighbor, but he gets the feeling nobody else in town would approve of that, so for now, it stays a simple daydream for him.

MacCready Once he gets over the shock of a pack of friendly Yaoi Guais swarming him and Sole, he's immediately jealous of this strange talent his friend has and wants to know how they do it. He refuses to take Sole not knowing for an answer and makes it his life goal to befriend at least one animal out in the Wasteland, of course, this ends with a dog bite on his arm and a bruised ego, especially when Sole manages to calm down the dog that had just attacked him. After that, he figures it's best for his own safety if he leaves the animal befriending to Sole, but he does ask for his own pet Deathclaw more times than he can count - not that it'd be very practical to have around Duncan, but a man can dream.

Nick Valentine There's not a lot left in the Commonwealth that can shock Nick Valentine, he's near enough seen it all and so, although Sole is expecting a much bigger reaction from the synth detective, he just accepts it. Besides, he once came across a girl roaming Boston Commons with a Sentry Bot for a best friend, a Mirelurk Queen isn't exactly that big of a surprise in comparison. That doesn't mean he won't go out of his way to pet any animals that Sole manages to tam on their travels, his favourite was probably the Radroach that Sole taught to roll over.

Piper Wright She genuinely thinks that she's having some kind of fever dream that first time she sees it, there's no way Sole would actually be sat at their campfire with a Mutant Hound sat on their lap peacefully. After pinching herself a few times and accepting the reality in front of her, Piper doesn't hesitate to dub Sole "The Wasteland Whisperer." If anything, she likes the bonus of not having to worry about fighting off any creatures whilst they're out on their travels, she just wishes that at least someone back in Diamond City would believe her when she told them about her Vault Dweller friend who can tame even the most vicious of creatures; even Nat thinks she's full of it.

Preston Garvey The first time that Preston saw Sole tame an animal was the Deathclaw back in Concord and for a moment, he was convinced that he was already dead and he just hadn't realised yet. At first, he wasn't sure how to bring it up to Sole to question it and so he decided not to question their odd talent at all, that was until he started travelling with them and they came across a Radroach nest. Preston still can't quite believe that there's someone out there that can befriend any animal they come across no matter what, but he finds it remarkable and he really doesn't mind when Sole brings animals back to Sanctuary. He's actually rather fond of the Yaoi Guai Sole brought back after going to clear out a settlement, he just hopes that they stay friendly, for everyone's sake.

X6-88 He doesn't see the point in befriending any of the creatures out in the Wasteland, it's far better to simply put them out of their misery after the generations of mutation they've had to endure. He makes this known to Sole immediately, which seems to offend his travelling companion, after that, he decides not to comment on it at all, aside from a few eye rolls and scoffs here and there. Of course, he doesn't complain too much when it comes to having the extra back up of a Deathclaw during a fight with raiders or Super Mutants.

Human to Animal headcanons 1: Carmen Sandiego

El Topo, Le Chevre and Tigress r self explanatory

Carmen- a fox, I would say a sheep bc of her code name but I just feel a fox is more suiting bc she's sneaky. Also her hair kinda red

Player- a deer, idk bc of he's small size n kinda more ig self keeping demeanor it seems fitting

Ivy & Zach- Dogs, specifically labradors. Bc more or less how the hair is, and for their loyal yet energetic style

Shadowsan- snow leopard, badass animal, plus they're known to be rather isolated and go on their own

Coach Brunt- Bear. I mean, how can she NOT be one???

Countess Cleo- a peacock ngl, specifically the Opal peacock! Just based on looks it seems to go better with her fashionable design

Dr. Bellum- a hamster, just kinda a demeanor thing idk how to explain it tbh I don't have much an imagination for her,,,,

Maelstrom- molerat.

Crackle- fennec fox! He's sly like Carmen tho honestly like Carmen it's a hair color thing, fennec's being more brown n such

Paper star- a mouse, more bc of how her hair looks, plus she's kinda like quiet in a way but in the sense u can't hear her coming. Spooky!!

That's all!! Feel free to suggest fandom's n I'll do em if I know em! If I don't know em then ehhh I'll go on appearance :3

[matchbet-allofthetime]

I think one of my favourite things in FO4 is that you can casually tame Deathclaws (and countless other creatures.)

Throughout the game, there's always the occasional deathclaw during certain missions and all that won't just immediately take a chunk out of you unless you shoot them first.

But you can also just... Vibe with them. You can go take a Deathclaw egg and give it back to a Deathclaw mama and she never kills you unless you hurt her or don't give the egg back. And that's WITHOUT the Animal Friend peek- she just becomes one that you can sit there with and I personally visit her constantly.

The Animal Friend and Wasteland Whisperer perks are beyond useful. It's not even like I use them make it where molerats don't fuck with me- it's because I wanted to befriend the wild dogs and the fucking Deathclaws.

I can just imagine in-universe how fucking terrifying Sole must be regardless of what ending they choose just because they're a main character in a Fallout game.

But imagining my Sole as someone who came out into the Wastes, figured everything out mostly alone (no matter what things are taught by companions or other NPCs), and then just TAMES FUCKING EVERYTHING THEY COME ACROSS is stellar. (Made even better when you have the perk to tame ferals!!)

Because regardless of who you side with, that must be a sight to behold. And it makes Sole terrifying, even if they're the sweetest.

My Sole rolls with the Minutemen and the Railroad, and even those close friends are terrified of them sometimes, because they'll blindly be on their Pip-Boy and walking through Deathclaw territory or shit like that.

That must be such a thing to see for a wastelander who's worst nightmare is a Deathclaw.

[lobsterbre4d]

In one of my saves I’ve finally gotten Danse’s room and stuff and I’m looking through it now.

First I noticed this, a dog howl and some meat, to my knowledge there are no dogs on the prydwen and the closest thing they have are the MoleRats which I don’t think Danse would care for, so now I’m like super curious.

I also found a baby rattle in his locker and it might be randomly generated but if Danse is like yearning to be a father he’s probably devastated after finding out he’s a synth and can’t reproduce 😭

A mix of songs that I listen to when writing! Some remind me of Mac, some are songs I think he'd listen to, and some are HC and Fic specific!

A MacCrady Profile

Name: Robert Joseph MacCready

Occupation: Gun for Hire

Experience: Gunner (don't hold it against him) Mayor (from 10-16) self proclaimed 'ruthless little bastard' (still applicable)

Nickname(s): RJ, Bobby-Joe, Mac, Sasshole, Mac n Cheesy, MacGreedy, MacSneezy, MacSleepy, MacWeepy, MacEaty, SnarkCready

Age: 22 years old (no really)

Height: 5'8'' (Short King)

Build: Scrawny (130 lbs.)

Eyes: Bright Blue (pwetty)

Hair: Light Brown, choppy (hella cute)

Features: All sharp edges and angles, rat-like (but in a sexy kinda way)

The best ways to annoy/piss him off:

-Trying to make him carry your junk.

-Leaving him in the dark about what is going on and not letting him have a say in important decisions

-Being irresponsible and not taking the situation seriously.

-Using chems in front of him, knowing he disapproves of them.

-Not taking proper care of yourself (i.e., not wearing armor, getting enough food and water, etc.)

Molerats (anything that looks, walks, or sounds like one)

Murdering Innocents and sadistic behavior.

Abuse of Power (this is probably the thing he hates the most)

What he likes:

Wit, sarcasm, and smart-assness (loves it!).

Making MacCready smile and laugh.

Playfulness (MacCready can't resist).

Cuddling and being held (He'd never admit it).

A good listener.

Surprising facts about MacCready:

His guilty pleasure is Sugar Bombs and Nuka Cola.

He started drinking when he was six years old.

He has a high level of intelligence and enjoys learning new things (he likes to spout out random facts)

Named all the dogs in Little Lamplight: Muttface, Pete, Hooligan, Ginger, Bandit, and Rex.

Headcanons!:

If there were one word he'd use to describe himself, it would be hardy. He's used to pushing himself to do whatever it takes to survive, even when doing things that others consider crazy. MacCready is sarcastic, stubborn, and guarded—he doesn't trust easily.

He affectionately refers to his rifle as 'Baby' (but only in private).

He is surprisingly insightful and observant, noticing details that others overlook.

MacCready's past has left scars on him emotionally and physically, and some days are worse than others.

When MacCready is ill, it the more clingy and needy he becomes.

Hates being cold, so bundling him in warm blankets helps make him feel better. Will accept hot soup (but NOT cave fungus)

Self-consciously hates how his knees knock together and his ribs poke under his shirt. (due to having rickets as a kid)

When genuinely happy, he's all toothy smiles until he thinks someone might notice, and then he reverts back to his usual stoic self. (doesn't like his teeth)

MacCready is always smoking, his cigarettes resting between his lips as he goes through one pack after another.

His guilty pleasures are Sugar Bombs and Nuka Cola. He loves sweet things but doesn't have time for much food.

His mind is full of cuss words.

He also has a habit of tapping his fingers against the side of his rifle whenever he's nervous.

MacCready and intimacy:

He misses physical intimacy and closeness and longs for that connection again but struggles to communicate it. Insecurity eats at MacCready; he feels guilty about moving on with his life and letting go of Lucy.

When MacCready does allow himself to get close to someone, the things that draw him to you aren't lost on him. How your presence brings him a sense of peace and makes him forget about all the problems in his life, if only for a while, how you make him smile when he wants nothing more than to cry, and how you somehow always manage to look at him with such kindness, even when he feels he doesn't deserve it.

MacCready finds sleep with a new partner extremely difficult. After losing Lucy the way he did, having trouble falling asleep is now a side effect of his traumatic experiences. He often wakes up in the middle of the night, unable to fall back asleep, and if his companion stirs, he's instantly wide awake, unable to keep his eyes off them.

He tells himself it's because he's trying to protect them, but he knows deep down that part of him can't stop wondering what it would be like to lose another loved one in a heartbeat. To find himself alone yet again... and being alone scares the heck out of him.

MacCready can be very vulnerable at night, especially after a nightmare. When he comes back to his senses, it takes a moment for the memories to fade away. Once they do, he gets flustered and tries to push his nightmares out of his head. He doesn't want his partner to see him as weak and break down.

As MacCready starts trusting you, he eventually reveals his troubles. He's more willing to seek support rather than deal with everything alone. He may still shy away from physical contact or withdraw after the initial breakdown. Once MacCready starts opening up, he slowly becomes more comfortable, allowing you to show affection and comfort him.

An ongoing conflict with himself is his attraction to men, which he has repressed for many years, believing that acknowledging it would question his marriage to Lucy. In MacCready's eyes, you either like women or men and not both. So, the fact that he harbors these feelings of attraction to men makes him feel guilty, ashamed, and, most of all, confused about his identity.

Some Jeremy info that no one asked for

Jeremy does chill with some animals, that being Brahmin, Big Horners, Cats, Dogs and other birds. Cats are the only animals that he will get away from if they swat at him. He will nip at Dogs, Brahmin and Big Horners but won't fully attack.

He will also chill with the heavily mutated animals if they don't bother him first, the only animal he has bias towards are Molerats due to his rivalry history. RIP any Molerat pets Fallout ocs have, but it is on sight with them.

How Jeremy has been sustaining himself in the waste is by eating Bloatflies and Radroaches, along with any grain or grass that he might have the luck to come across, else he steals food straight from settlers/wastelanders hands.

Jeremy can fly, he just chooses not too unless to get away or attack people who are high up on buildings. No one is safe

He can't open doors, unless they have the long handle he can pull at.

He killed Tenpenny and can be found on the balcony of the Tower at times, the guards and Burke are too scared to get rid of him.

Anyone has a good chance at patting or holding Jeremy, as long as there is no ill intent or rude comments. The bird, like any animal, can just be unpredictable.

He will harass the Children of Atom in Megaton as he has claimed the irradiated water as his, take bets with Moriarty to see who will win.

He has attacked Moriarty when the dumbass tried to give him a congratulations pat after kicking Confessor Cromwell's ass.

Children, Adults and Elderly alike, none are safe from the Goose.

Marlina Delgado

She was created for Fallout 4 by my lovely spouse @rmilkies, and is originally how our OCs began to interact when we first met on here (I was like ‘Boldizsár needs a girlfriend’ and they were like ‘hang on I got one’).

More character info below cut

As mentioned above, she was an existing OC that ends up becoming a friend/love interest of Boldizsár. She originally meets the twins in Goodneighbor while trading, and they cross paths again a few years later after the twins have been in the Gunners for a while.

(she was supposed to just be a temporary love interest, but they ended up being so cute together we didn’t have the heart to ever break them up so they’re just married forever now)

(28 during the events of Fallout 4)

Traits/Behaviors

Terrible with using guns (bad aim bad luck doesn’t even aim right), loves working with and repairing them

Works as a mechanic at the Red Rocket outside of Sanctuary Hills, but travels sometimes for trading purposes. Very skilled at engineering and building/maintaining/repairing weapons, machines, etc

Could absolutely get a car working again idk why no one in 200+ years has apparently tried that

Great in a fistfight! Also with melee weapons

Lowest stats are Luck (3) and Charisma (2), charisma is due to being incredibly honest and frequently putting her foot in her mouth

Luck is due to the fact that @rmilkies likes to make her suffer

Brother Issues McGee 🤡

Older brother (Luis) left town when she was 10 without telling her and with no warning; he left some money and instructions for her care but nothing else

This was a terrible idea in hindsight and isn’t acknowledged until they reunite ≈20 years later

Grew up in a brothel in New Vegas, has liberal (borderline hedonistic) views about…everything

Despite that, is usually sober due to personal preference.

Killed her mom’s drug dealer for knowingly selling something tainted that caused her mom to die.

Received her burn scars from some dudes who didn’t take kindly to her denying their advances

So fucking compassionate, wants a big family to compensate for never knowing hers very well

Loves animals, is absolutely the wife that comes home with a 5th dog (or molerat) that she found wandering out on the street

Grows protective of and attached to people quickly - if they leave or something happens to them she has stronger emotions about it - really empathetic in general

Tends to dote on those she cares about - big Mommy energy

Also has a tendency to mother hen people, which can be overbearing at times

Thinks sunset sarsaparilla is superior to nuka cola and will die on that hill

She and Petra often clash due to Petra’s general nature and also the fact that Marlina (in Petra’s view/opinion) interfered and changed her relationship with her brother - Petra sees her as an outsider and threat, someone that could possibly take Boldizsár away from her (he starts rebelling and acting out around the same time they meet Marlina so Petra naturally blames it all on her)

Despite this she is aggressively nice to Petra, who eventually (very eventually) begrudgingly accepts her into their life

🎻💯🐶💛🍝🤩 for vaughn? :^)

🎻 VIOLIN — does your oc play any instruments? what is their skill level (beginner/intermediate/advanced/virtuoso/etc)?

he always wanted to play drums since he was young, but he didn't had that chance, until on his 45th birthday, when his son gifted him a set of restored drums. you can check this lil story wrote by @theartofblossoming HERE!

💯 HUNDRED POINTS SYMBOL — share three random facts about your oc that others may not know.

-his eyes are steel-grey, but depending on the light or even his mood, his eye color can change, sometimes could be deep blue, sometimes grey.

-he is half greek (his mom Olivia was born in USA but her parents were from Cyprus and moved in USA), and is proud of his heritage! his first language is actually greek, and loves to cook traditional food, and even teaching others how to preserve veggies and fruits by pickle them, a method that was seen as weird at first but it adopted fast.

-very much Autistic(™)

🐶 DOG FACE — does your oc have any pets?

besides Dogmeat, he also has a radchicken, named Hera! a very sweet, fearless chicken, who is the 'alpha' of the other animals in Sanctuary, despite being the smallest, and is a true animal therapy for him. she stays with him almost all the time, but she always do the morning and evening patrol with her pack, takes care of them by preening their fur or getting rid of parasites, will attack any other animal that enters her territory (she has talons like a rooster and has the meanest bite), and is a great mother hen, even that she will steal the baby chicks from other chickens. she lives in the house, as she can't stand other chickens or she will slaughter them.

i wrote a lil story from her POV HERE

here is a commission from an artist that is no longer on tumblr.

💛 YELLOW HEART — how many languages does your oc speak? what language(s) are they learning, if any?

greek is his first language, english second, knows a bit of chinese, spannish and italian.

🍝 SPAGHETTI — what is/are your oc's favorite food(s)?

he isn't picky with food anymore as he was when younger, so he would eat anything, especially if cooked fresh, as he doesn't trust the old pre war canned food. yet he would avoid molerat and bug meat at all cost, as he got sick from those.

🤩 FACE WITH STARRY EYES — is your oc a planner, or are they more spontaneous in their actions?

making plans is what makes him feel more at ease, as he is scared of changes, but sometimes plans will not work out his way, but as long as the result is the same, he would accept the situation.

thank you!!

Facts about Avita's excuse of a pet ✨️Molerat✨️

he was a failed necromantic experiment her dad Nikodemus fully intended to put out of its misery before Avita, a child at the time, imprinted on the misshapen critter and asked for it to be restored to some degree of health and wholeness. it became her first doggy :)

named after the naked molerat because that's very much what he looks like. just german shepherd sized. and... fleshier

initially an amalgam of haphazardly put-together preternatural viscera and whatever human bodyparts Nik could scrounge together to make it even-gaited, it's since taken a simultaneously more sustainable and less natural shape. he's now the proud owner of two faces (one beastly snout, one human, sharing a lumpy skull), approximatelly seven eyes and a spinal cord-fashioned tail

a mismatched amalgam of mixed-origin limbs in the front and back make molerat half-digitigrade and facultatively bipedal. and gives him running speed of about 51 kmh (32 mph). a delightfully efficient hunter

he communicates through series of eerily human-like sounds and, failing that, chirps and trills from its eclectic collection of tracheal cartillage. may mimic human tone and even certain words but he's as aware of their true meaning as a parrot is. which is to say, not at all.

ridiculously, obnoxiously loud when he needs attention

a happy, well-cared for creature, he's pretty sweet to familiar people, if a touch scatter-minded. playful, wholly curious, and entirely too needy about physical attention. pet. him. right now.

by no means gentle or cautious, by no fault of his own. bit of an elephant in a glass shop when excited. enthusiastic like a bear, curious like a shark and loving like a crocodile. as aggressive and violent as the aforementioned when it comes to large scary strangers and threats. rather protective of avita

skittish grump around strangers, though terrifyingly social and proactive about his curiosity. tends to posture without malicious intent behind it. will investigate everything and anyone. running is inadvisable as it activates his pursuit instinct.

very unaware of his size and visage (and don't you dare tell him 😤). if your lap can't handle a 180 pound murder dog, don't bother sitting down. playing with molerat includes equal dangers of injury by virtue of sheer proximity.

takes to green-eyed brunettes far quicker than anyone else, for unknown reasons

fun fact: molerat wasn't originally fully hairless, but has since lost the few tufts he had on scarse patches of intact epidermis and can no longer regrow them. he's classed as fully undead, with no organic growth processes going on.

feeds on preternatural viscera :) on an artificial diet of post-humously imbued human corpses

Fallout: New Vegas: Rex

"First, he hates rats. Can't stand the things. Giant rats, molerats, doesn't matter. He catches a whiff of one and he's off like a shot after them.[...]Second, he doesn't like hats, or the people wearing them. Don't ask. I have no idea why. Maybe because it rhymes with "rats"."
