anyone else feel like they're faking it when they end up having more than a couple kintypes from the same media? I already kinfirmed three from Fallout 4 and here I am kinsidering a fourth

now I'm banging my head against a wall because what is actually happening-

I just started the Nuka-World DLC, how do I already feel like I knew this place, like i lived here - like I was one of the Disciples,,, it all feels so familiar, returning to camp and all the carnage, the torture, it all feels so familiar and I find myself missing it

and I'm feeling like im faking because how can I be John Hancock, Faraday, Kellogg, and someone else all from fo4 :<

I swear to everything unholy if I see one more being misinterprete DiMA's character I'm going to scream

beware, an extremely long winded rant about my lover and how I try and prove some beings wrong for him - of course, Far Harbor (Fallout 4) spoilers. Not aimed at anyone in particular just as a btw im just an angry Faraday who wants nothing more than to give clarity on DiMA and some of his, um, unsavory actions

-

clarifying now, I am not DiMA, I am Faraday, I was his caretaker, one of his co-founders, his lover if you will, who knew him for an extraordinarily long time, longer than anyone else (unless you count Nick which I don't since they were separated for so long) and better than anyone else. If someone has the right to talk about this aside from DiMA, it's me.

I may be it bit biased, but I'm going to try and put my biases aside for this.

I just spent an hour scrolling through DiMA's tag - why? Because I miss him dearly and want to see as much fanart and memes of him as possible. And I saw a few posts that just.. got his character completely wrong, well, maybe not completely but overall really just wrong.

Im not saying it's bad to hate DiMA, everyone is entitled to love or hate any character they wish, not my problem. What I am saying is that please don't mischaracterize my love without expecting some, um, backlash from me. Just a small bit.

One of the points was that he was a hypocritical, manipulative, and self centered which.. which just isn't true, like at all. Again, I'm a little biased, but whatever.

Lets start with manipulative first, shall we? He never manipulated a soul into coming to Far Harbor. That includes Kasumi. She contacted us, cough cough actually me first but that's beside the point - when her and DiMA talked, DiMA used the same questions he always asked. The same ones we see asked to SS. It wasn't to confuse or manipulate her, just questions to make one think. She was a confused girl who just wanted answers, so DiMA gave options, his opinions, told her that she could be a synth, but also has a good chance of NOT being one, told her that if she wanted to come to Acadia, she was welcome, that whether or not she was a synth it was up to her. No one could tell her she was or wasn't one. He says the same to SS. He merely asks questions meant to make you think, to wonder, to question. You are the only one to be able to come to a conclusion like that. He doesn't force anyone to come or stay, anyone is welcome as long as you welcome us. Acadia was a refuge, why would we trick people or synths into coming? What would be the point? We already had limited resources, why would we stretch them thinner by manipulating others into staying? It makes no sense.

Hypocritical? Maybe. A little. But there was a reason for it. We got to remember, he spent how long in the Institute? It was all he ever knew, their methods.. it was all he knew. DiMA was a prototype, meant to learn from experiences and through exploration, to learn and adapt with what he sees and learns - all he knew was the Institute when it came to what happened with captain Avery. DiMA saw the people of Far Harbor attacking our people, and so he did the only thing he knew would fix the problem. And it did. He holds immense guilt for it and only did it again to high confessor Tektus because, again, it was the only thing he knew would work - it worked once, had incredible results, it was horrible, he knew it was, but it was the only choice he thought he had. Was there better ways? Absolutely. This should not have been the first choice of solution. If he'd informed me of such a decision, I would have done anything to talk him out of it, I know Chase would have too - but he didn't, I never knew until I got a hold of DiMA's memories that the SS brings back. But TLDR, he did it because he genuinely didn't know better and did not see any other action and only did it because inaction was costing his people lives.

DiMA was actually not self centered, at least, not how I remembered him. He didn't like the spotlight too much, when praised on Acadia and his actions in making it, he tried to pass it off to me and when she joined, Chase as well. He wasn't the hugest fan of all the attention, and focused most of his energy on others. Everything he did was for others. For Acadia, for fellow synths. The amount of times I had to force him to think of himself for once as to not let him damage himself is uncountable.

What I'm getting at here, is that despite DiMA making some choices, some really bad choices, he meant well. He insisted on the fog condensers for Far Harbor so they wouldn't be consumed by the fog. He did his best to make peace with everyone, he tried so fucking hard for there not to be any bloodshed. I watched him try, try over and over and over again. His choices weren't the best, but it was all he knew. He was flawed, but he wasn't awful, he wasn't cruel, he wasn't sadistic, he wasn't mean. He was genuinely kind and gentle and truly wanted the best for his community and kind, he wanted peace for the island and tried so hard to achieve it. And I loved him for it. I still do.

I love you DiMA, and I will defend you until my dying breath.

OKOK I swear I come here every couple days with updates to my kinsidering nonsense lol

yep

i kinfirmed Faraday

well, kinda, a slightly au version of him- he's a gen3 synth in canon, but I'm pretty sure thus version is like 2.9 right after they started experimenting with Shaun's dna to make new, much improved synths

so I like, got *some* of the new features, I looked pretty human but it doesn't take much wear and tear to make me visibly not a human - had a hole in my cheek and one of my hands had no synthetic skin (see Nick Valentine's claw, that's what it looked like) and possibly one of my eyes looked the same as gen2.5 while the other looked completely organic

I was before we bled, but after we could pass as human. I had human like skin, my blood was oil, I had the intelligence of the smartest institute scientist, I didn't need to eat but I needed to sleep (something something need to pass for human but can't figure out where the food will go after robot eats something something), I got to see both worlds - human and synth before I ever met DiMA

And I was very close to DiMA, as close as you can possibly get to another without it being romantic and/or sexual

cool shit but not cool enough to wake up at 1am and be stuck thinking about until 3am when it finally drives you so insane that you just start binge reading everything the fallout wiki has to offer on Far Harbor until 6am

~sincerely, an extremely tired Faraday (Fallout 4) #😈❤️

Canon homes-

I have a few places I consider home, places I'm dearly homesick for,

Goodneighbor, obviously is one of them. Hell, as well (though two(2) different versions of hell, the hazbin hotel universe of hell, and a more biblically accurate one that doesnt have to do with being fictionkin), the Alhambra Music Hall, Circus Baby's Pizza World (aka the underground facility underneath it), Hogwarts, and I've recently found myself homesick for Acadia as well

I know that's a lot, but with many kintypes from so many different places, I just have a lot to miss-

~(in order) John Hancock (Fallout 4), Valentino (Hazbin Hotel), Maxwell Roth (Assassin's Creed Syndicate), Roxanne Afton (a FNaF OCkin) & Funtime Foxy (FNaF), and (possibly???) Faraday (Fallout 4: Far Harbor) #😈❤️
