Terrible News, Children

Strange place I found myself in. That guy, Dukov, and his girls went upstairs. I poke around a bit, trying to find that liquor cabinet. Needless to say I don’t find it.

I stare up at the ceiling, looking at all the bizarre things hanging from it. One of those is a jukebox. I haven’t listened to music in a while, it’s be nice to hear something happy.

You don’t deserve something happy.

I deserve to listen to something aside from you. I shake my head, trying to get the voices out, and turn on the jukebox. To my delight, I hear Three Dogs bow-wow over the air. What a delightful way to find out that I’m back in the range of Galaxy News Radio!

“News flash! Listen up, children,” Three Dogs’ voice rings out in the pre war lobby. “Lock your damn doors. The Pirate of the Wastes is out there, wreaking havoc, wrecking lives. Here's the latest.”

He’s talking about you.

No, he can’t be. I- I’ve done so much good!

Have you? Check your charts. I don’t think you have.

“Children, I'm afraid I've got some terrible, terrible news,” I hear him report mournfully. “GNR sources have confirmed that the mushroom cloud seen in the vicinity of Megaton was in fact... Megaton.”

No. No! This can’t be happening!

Yes, it can.

I sit down on the couch. My head is spinning. There’s no way… There’s no way anyone knows it was me. There’s no way they would know. Burke and Tenpenny are dead. No one else would know.

Three Dogs continues, “It's been no secret that the pre-war nuke in the center of town had a live atomic core, and under the wrong conditions, could still go kaboom. Well go kaboom it has.”

Do you like the sight of smoke, Danburite? Because there’s plenty of it now. Right across the road from where you grew up. Butch and Amata will find out what you did soon enough. Your father doesn’t love you.

He said under the wrong conditions. I still have plausible deniability!

Do you?

“But it was all just a tragic accident, right?” He asks.

Right!

Is that so, Danburite?

His voice darkens as he answers with, “Don't you believe that for a second, folks.”

I feel my stomach drop. I feel sick. I can’t be hearing this. This can’t be right!

He elaborates, “Word is that twisted old land grabber Allistair Penny, founder of the posh Tenpenny Tower, has been looking to secure that spot for years. I suspect foul play, folks.”

I clasp my hand tightly over my mouth and try to force my lungs to take deep breaths. I don’t succeed.

The sound a watch makes when enveloped in cotton…

Shut the fuck up! I feel tears pool in the small gap between my cheeks and my tightening hand. He still might not think it’s me!

But Three Dogs asks, “But just who did the dirty deed? Ask yourself this why has the kid from Vault 101 been sighted hanging around Tenpenny Tower? Why indeed...”

My vision is spotty. My ears are underwater. My heart my heart my heart is slamming against my ribs. I can’t breathe without screams coming about but I can’t scream here so I just don’t breath. This is all your fault! Why are you laughing?!

Because no one will ever believe it wasn’t you.

“Whatcha need?” Dukov’s voice ends up piercing through. “How about a drink?”

He hands me a bottle of whisky; which I drink in full. I stare dead ahead. I shouldn’t be drinking right now.

“Wasn’t expecting a scrawny bastard like you to be able to do that,” he remarks, impressed. “You should come back when you’re in a better mood to party with me and my girls!”

He laughs heartily as “I Don’t Want To Set The World On Fire” plays. I don’t respond outside of thanking him for the drink and stumbling out of his building.

Rivet City. I need to find Vera. I need to find Rivet City.

the funniest meltdown ive ever had was in college when i got so overstimulated that i could Not speak, including over text. one of my friends was trying to talk me through it but i was solely using emojis because they were easier than trying to come up with words so he started using primarily emojis as well just to make things feel balanced. this was not the Most effective strategy... until. he tried to ask me "you okay?" but the way he chose to do that was by sending "👉🏼👌🏼❓" and i was so shocked by suddenly being asked if i was dtf that i was like WHAT???? WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY TO ME?????????? and thus was verbal again

i’m afraid he’s already bewitched me

"yeah shit might suck right now but i might rip apart the universe soon so hey! your problems will seem small in comparison! ...probably!"

Defending Damian’s worst antics purely on the basis of “if you’re an experienced vigilante/combatant and you get murked by a child that’s a skill issue on your part”

If only Machete wasn't so distinctly white and waifish. Otherwise one could possibly use a lookalike to fake his death and just run away with vasco. But finding someone that resembles machete would be almost as hard as making the choice to end a life to save your own.

Drawing my insecurities on beautiful men I want to be more like / representation I needed as a feminine but not twinkish man over the years has helped me feel much happier and more secure with myself, wanted to share. Highly recommend that process of self love, or at least self-appreciation ?

personal happiness or what the fuck ever

Their actual first meeting in the Kyoshi Warriors AU!

Katara had her Oh moment before exchanging a word with Jian Li, and while she gets over it in time (or, at least, convinces herself that she's not embarrassed by her initial reaction to him) this quasi-interaction haunts her for the first couple of days of their stay in Kyoshi Island.

It's just not fair that the place is full of gorgeous people! Or that he's not only beautiful, but also kind and awkward and respectful and dorky and—oh, La—she's in trouble.

On a very stupid note, can you imagine how embarrassing it is for Bruce Wayne, the most paranoid and secretive man on earth, that whenever there's drama in his family it inevitably reaches a significant portion of the superhero community?

And he can't even go after any one person, because Alfred would tell Dick (who tells Wally and Donna, especially if it was really stupid), Steph would tell Kara (who would tell Clark, who would tell Diana, who already knew via Donna), and Tim would tell Kon, Damian would tell Jon and Connor, Duke tells Jason about it, and because Wally told Barry Hal now knows (and other Lanterns), J'onn knew because Bruce was fuming and Clark was trying to figure out how to bring it up, Cass told Dinah and Barbara so now the entirety of the Arrowfam and Birds of Prey know too and so on.

Scott Cawthon’s version of FNAF security breach..

[ciderjacks]

despite Laios low self esteem making him think that if he’d been eaten, Chilchuck and Marcille wouldn’t have helped Falin,

theres a small part of me that thinks the reason Chilchuck stayed with the party and went back in the dungeon in the first place was because he didn’t want to leave Laios alone. That Laios was moreso the reason he stayed.

People who write Jason calling Sheila a bitch in his internal monologue don’t understand him I’m sorryyy. I don’t think he’s ever actually said a word against her in canon at the is point. He spent his last moments trying to protect her from the blast even after her betrayal. He is insane in ways you can’t even begin to fathom
