We murdered the Gunners.
We invaded The Gunner Plaza. It was oddly glorious. There were Institute Synths, a Nightingale, a Railroad Agent, and even a few of my Minutemen.
I also think that the Agent and The Courser were low key into each other.
I think I'm seeing a lingering glance between them.

some more doodles of Danse in his M7-97 era
#i HC that the institute wants the coursers to be neat and uniform and they dont let em grow facial hair#and danse would stop shaving as a small sign of rebellion just before he eventually went on to escape#fallout 4#fallout fanart#fallout 4 danse#paladin danse#my art#i am now lowkey regretting “”deadnaming'' him in this post what with the whole. trans allegory thing. lol

pleasepleasepleasepleaseplease start posting x6 meta the people yearn for it
you got it 🫡 the people shall have x6 meta and their yearning shall be fulfilled
#ask#anon#fallout#x6-88#fallout 4#LISTEN. all im saying is that holy shit. there is so much to think about with him.#especially when it comes to the railroad and how they do not see coursers as being “savable”/capable of change#and how even the railroad dehumanizes them and referrs to coursers as “it”– something they dont do with other synths#but we KNOW thats wrong because we've seen coursers break away from the institute!#and then x6-88 being a walking contradiction of “no im not a person” but he also expresses emotions and thoughts and fears so openly#idk!! idk!! i care him. im holding him on my hip alongside cait. my best friends#i need to replay fallout 4 i havent touched it in like a year but i just remembered x6 and was like whoahhh. my friend x6

every time i think about how dirty x6-88 was done by the fallout 4 writers i get viscerally upset
#NO development NO companion quest NO exploration of his character#he was already written into a really awkward position due to how poorly the institute was handled#and then they decided to just. not do anything with him.#bethesda writers fighting for their life trying to make a POC companion that isn’t 1) underdeveloped 2) extremely insensitive or 3) both#like even if you kept the premise of the institute. he’s an institute-loyal synth. he’s in a Very unique position as a courser.#he’s dry and sarcastic. his institute loyalty makes him a hypocrite so often. he has DIALOGUE if you do railroad and blow up the institute#he STAYS WITH YOU#and they do NOTHING with him??????#he’s just a fucking blade joke!#he’s the Obligatory Institute Companion!#he deserved better#todd howard when i fucking catch you#fo4

freshly born gen3 nick had longer hair and a bit of beard happening by the time he got back to goodneighbor, which usually looks weird to me, but ive seen enough gale baldursgate fanart by now to be somewhat ok w it
#sketches#vaultblogging#nicky v#the freaky institute guy that made him would sometimes cut it so nicks a little freaked out by the feeling of scissors on his neck.#he prefers to have regularly cut/styled hair bc hes a gentleman. so he does not like having the long hair and eventually has tua cut it#which pros of gen3 upgrade: partner washing your hair.#cons: feeling of cold metal on the back of your neck wakes up that courser programming real quick

Is Shaun Nora's child? If so, does she view X6 as family due to his closeness to Father, or just as a friend?
shaun is nora's biological child, yep, and post-institute when asked she says she has two sons (referring to shaun and synth!shaun--but a minor plot point in my fic is that she doesn't tell anyone about synth!shaun being a synth. if pressed for details, she just says her eldest passed away recently and that typically shuts down any further questions).
oh, edited to add bc i don't think i was clear: she treats synth!shaun as a son too. she takes to him straightaway. he's still a child who views her as his mother, and she still wants to be a parent. they have a good relationship.
she does view x6 as family, but in a found-family sort of way that doesn't have anything to do with them sharing dna. she thinks shaun calling himself "father" is extremely--i think paternalistic is the right word, and she emphatically does not approve. she feels family is a lot more than genetic material, and so is parenthood, which relates back to her family situation mentioned here.
she and x6 grow close as they work together and kind of outside the bounds of father's knowledge. x6 is a smart guy and figures out nora's still working for the railroad, and for his own reasons keeps it to himself, and nora's aware that if she actually reported how snarky and independent x6 is, he'd be sent to reconditioning. so their relationship is tense for a while, but eventually grows genuine and very close.
i think outside of nick, x6 is the companion she's closest with by the end of things.
#okay if it is not clear who i am talking about please please let me know#the curse of having two characters with the same name. augh#...you might have been asking about synth shaun as the shaun in your ask?? oh boy.#anyway i have so many thoughts about x6. he's the best courser because he's good at what he does and he believes in the institute#which makes him the worst courser because the fact that he CAN believe in them tears down everything they say about synths being people#like. if even your most elite agents work for you ONLY because you've brainwashed them into doing so#are your takes REALLY valid? nah#<- that's the extremely simple version but i think i could write an essay on how x6 is proof the institute is wrong and they can't see it#...or a longwinded fanfic. or a tag novel dear god#tysm for the ask!! i will talk about my synth and x6 and shaun and father headcanons ALL DAY i swear#the relationship between sole and their son is another reason i'm writing this honestly. like. loving someone who is objectively a horrible#person is something that... well#it's something.#it's tough.#autumn.fic#fic: until dawn#autumn.oc#oc: nora navarre

Hey, all. It’s your friendly neighborhood synth biology expert,* here to remind you of the horrifying reality that Gen 3 synths can canonically glitch out.
*this user is not a biology expert, synth or otherwise
Update: The primary drive message is confirmed in dialogue to be about early-Gen synths. Which means that A#-## designations do apply to them, meaning J2-84 could have also been a robo-synth.
#not impossible that j2 was just sneaking out on some clandestine activity#and covering with the time-honored ‘oh i’m just cleaning the boardroom sir:)” maneuver#idk how to square this with the fact that they’re identical to humans in nearly every way#i imagine the component just feeds them with memories and basic knowledge that humans develop as children#which would include speech patterns/language/coordination/sense of direction#also important to remember that human brains glitch too (especially under great stress)#fallout#fallout 4#fo4#the institute#now what the heck is a primary drive#also teaching a courser mandarin is a real ‘why does c3p0 know the ancient Sith language’ situation
