Preston x Danse is the only companion ship I think would actually work because Preston’s inner turmoil is sort of a loss of faith in himself due to the traumatic experiences he’s faced while Danse is looking for something to have faith in and would find the fact that despite the desire to give up Preston held out so long not just for the honor of the Minutemen but because he had some hope.
It would 100% start off as a lotta unhealthy on Danse’s side as I believe he completely lacks the emotional intelligence (due to a combination of factors) to recognize the he’s feelings as anything but a sort of respect for a superior along with leaning too much into Preston as a substitute for the BoS. Preston may not really have a title but he’s like THE Lieutenant of the Minutemen. Realistically he’s the only companion Danse would probably be comfortable taking instructions from especially for how trusted Preston is by the Sole Survivor and his adherence to military standards despite how unstructured the Minutemen are. It would be him waiting for orders, approval, anything from Preston and he thinks it’s just the desire to have the regiment of the BoS again but he also like when Preston compliments him on being useful or resourceful. He likes the stories of Minuteman glory days and he trades the stories of the BoS that don’t hurt to talk about. He likes the familiarity Preston would provide and he’d be oblivious that it’s not just new found loyalty to the Minutemen.
Yet Preston explains it himself that he’s not a natural leader. He’s not an instructor. He helps manage what the General has put in place and he content on doing that. He relays what needs to be done and does major upkeep but I don’t think he’d know what to do with this guy this literally marches up to him and practically begs for a mission that doesn’t exist. Like the formality and respect is nice but he can tell it’s covering something even if Danse doesn’t.
Danse could go to Sturges for the many repair and upkeep assignments he gives him and has the freedom to go straight to the Castle if he really wants a big mission, but he chooses to come to him everytime. He’s aware enough that Danse only trusts him out of all of the Generals confidantes but it would take a bit for him to understand why. If anything Danse should be strategizing with him as equals seeing as he almost got the Minuteme wiped out and Danse was a Paladin for the Brotherhood with many successes under his belt before Preston even led his first scouting mission. It’s like he sees him as some figure of hope, some one who can come in and add stability. Someone with a fresh outlook who can provide a new perspective for him.
It’s like he sees him like he saw/sees the Sole Survivor but that would be crazy because that would also mean… and then oh, it clicks.
The revelation is both flattering and he doesn’t know what to do with it cause how do you address “I know you respect me but is that the only feeling you have for me?” To the guy who like refuses to rest unless you tell him at ease? He has to reevaluate his whole manner of interaction with Danse cause this is a very slippery slope that he’s sliding down and it’s even more perilous due to Danse’s repressed emotions regarding… everything. There’s an equal chance Danse will try to open up as completely shut down and he’s not just concerned about it cause Sole Survivor cares for him but because he has grown to care for the guy too. It’s not like he doesn’t also enjoy Danse’s company and value as a Minuteman member. He’s not a love at first sight guy but he’s played with the idea, anyone would when you’ve spent nights trading stories, historical facts and beers by the fire in a little home you’ve carved for yourself through literal blood, sweat and tears.
I think it’s one of those cases where it’s agonizingly slow to the actual relationship but neither part are anguished about that. If anything happened to soon Danse would be too dependent and Preston not equipped to handle it. It’s a case where I genuinely think they’d bring out the best in each other cause theyd want to figure out what is best for the other and not just apply what they think is the best. It’s the care that Preston would ask Danse what he wants to do and encourage it and at the same time Danse would be incredulous everytime Preston second guesses himself.
Long story short it’s a good ship to me because it’s just two guys with broken confidences and faith in their roles being each other’s hype man and kissin a little about it.

Part 4
It had been a whole month since Nate left. MacCready had given himself only one night to cry his heart out then but on a brave face for his boy who clearly felt responsible for his dad's hurt somehow. He packed their things and headed to Diamond City, Piper tagging along.
She had a soft spot for Duncan - as did almost everyone who met him, though. She was telling him about the school he'll be attending with her little sister, and the funny robot that can only say one thing and sell noodles.
Mac watched as the life returned to his boys' eyes. He had practically started vibrating with excited when Mac asked him if he wanted to live in the city for a bit and go to school with other kids.
Piper, bless her, hadn't said a word about Nate and everything that happens. Considering how he used flirt and tease her just to watch her huff and scowl, he was quite surprised. But then again, Nate usually surrounded himself with good people.
Lord only knows what possessed Nate to see something good in himself.
Finally in the city before dark, Piper was just as excited as Duncan to show off the work she, Valentine and Nate did on the place. She opened the door with a 'Tada!'
It was... Perfect. Carpets under their feet, trophies and mounted rare rifles on the wall, all lit up in beautiful wall lamps. An honest to God kitchen and living room fully equipped. The empty end of the apartment was revamped into Duncan's room, with a big carpet, toys, and a desk with school supplies. The middle loft was redone into a bedroom with a bathroom in the top loft.
Duncan squealed and Piper lead him on a tour of their new home.
MacCready doesn't know how long he stood there speechless, just looking around. He couldn't believe this was theirs... They had a home. A safe home that is just theirs.
But... Nate's presence was still heavy. It felt like a physical thing, the way he expected to see Nate's bright smile and excited eyes if he were to look over his shoulder, asking 'so? What do you think?'. He could swear he saw Nate sitting on the sofa reading comics or cooking in the kitchen till he looked directly at it and saw he wasn't really there.
Just then Duncan came running into his legs, saving his sanity. His beautiful boy had the biggest smile and his raw heart softened.
"Is this really our home dad? Really really? I can leave my toys and clothes here forever?"
Mac looked up to see Piper (bless her soul) give him a sympathetic and reassuring smile. Damn perceptive journalist. She could probably see he was struggling and guess quite accurately with what.
"Yes, Duncan. We're home."
Time passed and Mac had to find a way to go on without Nate. It felt like re-learning how to walk on your own. He got a part time job with Diamond City security, assisting them during assaults at the entrance, or when a group of raiders, ghouls, or mutants were settling too close. It was too dangerous for the usual security lads, but compared to what he and Nate did on the daily - it was almost fun. Like target practice.
Word quickly spread of the amazing sharp shooter Merc and his sweet boy. Of course Duncan made friends really quickly and adored school, but he hadn't been this settled anywhere since Little Lamplight.
Soon enough came the requests for help.
Arturo needs mods from KL-E-0, Becky Fallon wants her family heirlooms from Fallon's Department Store, and Piper has a package she needs sent to Preston at the Castle.
It's the last request that makes him cave. He owes her (a big) one.
But he still pushes them for extra caps to make it worth his time (he's still RJ MacCready after all).
That's how he became the 'need help? Talk to MacCready!' guy. One night at the Dugout Inn Vadim made the off shoulder comment that he has become Nate.
And didn't that comment stick to him like ugly to a feral ghoul. He had been trying so fu- damn hard to forget about it, to forget about the crushing guilt and shame of what he did but in a few words it all caught up to him.
That night he laid away in bed, haunted by Nate's ghost again. He refused to acknowledge it but learning to sleep without Nate's breathing was harder than he would like to admit. In the shadows of the room he could still see Nate... Talking to him, smiling, singing, laughing...
He really thought of Vadim's words and realised... He wouldn't have done that before meeting Nate. Nate changed him...helped him become a father worthy of Duncan, a man worthy of friends...he saved him from himself.
He was doing this because this is what Nate would've done if he were here, and Mac would've grumblingly accompanied him as he always did. So in a way, he's not doing anything new. Nate was someone who gave his heart and soul to these people. Maybe in some way, this is how Mac can atone for hurting him though helping those he cared about.
He made a promise to himself that night to do just that. To be the man Nate saw in him.
Things changed from there on. He offered to help instead of hiding until they found him and begged for help. He gave his free time to give shooting lessons to the security. He learned everyone's names and asked them how they've been.
It felt...weird. But good weird. Like your body being sore in a good way the day after vigorous training.
However, with thinking 'what would Nate do', he also let down the high walls of denial and ignorance. Thoughts of the man we're almost always in his conscious mind.
A shotgun mod he would like, something he would find funny, someone he would steal and kill for, and someone he would steal from.
The most powerful of all, however, was the single memory he had kept in a steel box. Memory of looking down at Nate's wet eyes and broken smile, blood on his lips and no air in his lungs as he told Mac he loved him, that it was his only wish when they both thought this was the end.
Knowing that, he started to see some of their other best memories in a different light. He realizes that the soft way Nate looked at him was different from how he looked at others. He sees Nate's favouritism towards him for what it was. He remembers how Nate would lose it if Mac got hurt in a fight, how he threw himself at enemies who had their sights on the Merc, and how he always gave him a stim first.
Mac had thought Nate was just a stupidly selfless guy who needed to him or the world would take Advantage of his good heart. But no...it was because Mac was special.
He remembers thing now. The way Nate would blush if Mac touched his neck or hand to get his attention. How Nate got quiet around Cait and Piper, not because he had a crush on them, but because Mac did (only for a bit though, those ladies are a little scary). How deeply, deeply angry and upset Nate was when he told him how Barnes had treated him in the Gunners and how he got the nickname 'the Merc with the mouth'.
As his memories of Nate start to change, so does his own heart. His own pain blinded him in homophobia, and it took time to not look at a gay couple and wonder which one is being taken advantage of.
It was three months after they moved to Diamond City that he realised...be missed Nate. Deeply. Profoundly. His voice, his scent, his smile, and his presence. And for the upteenth time he wondered where the man was and if he was okay.
Then a message came. From Preston. Covenant needed help with their broken turrets and only Mac and Nate knows how to fix those. The message sounds hopeful, but Mac reads it in Preston's voice that was as cold as the morning he bid them farewell. His eyes just as judgemental, like he knows Mac will say no.
Old Mac would've drawn him a middle finger and sent it back. But new and improved Mac? 'WWND' Mac? He helps.
Piper and little Nat is happy to have Duncan stay with them. Nat had taken her imagined role as older sister of Duncan very seriously, walking him to school and helping him with homework too.
So Mac falls into a comfortable old habit of packing for a mission with Nate, just without him this time. But all the same, for him. This time, slapping the spare PipBoy Nate got him to his wrist.
He stops by Covenant, fixes their turrets without asking for caps much to their surprise. So they spoil him they can - with Deezer lemonade, preserved cigarettes, and vegetables.
After some thought, be heads up to Kingsport Lighthouse. They've been having difficulty settling, and only had corn. They were just as stunned to see him, looking over his shoulder for Nate.
They were overjoyed for the variety of seeds. Mac was quick to spot the weak points in their defenses from being major and working with Nate - and helped them fortify their place. By the end of the week, three more settlers joined.
When the lunatics of Crater House sent 'missionaries' to warn them to leave, Mac had a better idea.
A quick trip to the Slog and he came back with Strong and some heavily armed ghouls. They made quick work of wiping out fanatics' base, and Strong buried the radiation drums in the middle for good measure, just because he likes 'Mac-ree-dee'. That and Mac told him this is how you get milk of human kindness - you hurt bad guys, and help good guys.
Somehow word must've gotten back to Nate's companions of the work he's been doing, because just as he left Kingsport and accompanied the bunch back to the Slog, a Deacon found him with a messaged.
There's an updated on Nate. Valentine requested his companions to come to Sanctuary to discuss it.
MacCready's Biggest Mistake
Part 1
MacCready was Nate's shadow - that much everyone knew. Where you see the one the other wasn't far. You'd think the Merc was the one clinging to the walking legend that is the general of the minute men and notorious 'vault dweller', but try to split them up and see what happens.
"Mac is with me. That is not up for debate." Nate's eyes, usually so kind and friendly, had steel and fire in them when Danse insisted he alone accompany Nate on the brotherhood mission. "If he isn't welcome then neither am I, Paladin."
It was Nate who - when push came to shove - bared his teeth possessively when someone tried to hire or take Mac from him. So for the past 6months whatever mission or job or wander Nate was one, and whoever he was doing it with or for, Mac had his back.
In Sanctuary Nate had taken two weeks to build homes for his companions with three sharing a living room. Piper, Curie, and Cait in one - Valentine, Danse, and Preston in another - Strong, Dogmeat, and Deacon in the last (Dee asked to room with them as neither slept indoors so the spy actually had the entire house to himself and his wardrobe). At the end of the street, however, stood a two story building with a workshop with displays downstairs, and a stairway up to a huge shared bedroom overlooking the valley, carefully designed with floor to ceiling glass windows high enough to not see into On the one end of the floor stood a comfy couch and armchairs with magazine stands, the corner had a desk and shelves with a scatter of mementos, Mac's ammo and pictures drawn by a child's hand, and Nate's Minutemem and Brotherhood holotapes and paperwork. In the centre a huge soft bed and one big chest of drawers. If you didn't know Mac you'd think this could be a commonwealth couple's dream home - but the Merc was as straight as a rifle.
That being said, their friends noted the way Nate would flinch and busy himself with his PipBoy whenever Mac flirted with Piper or Cait. They kept it to themselves but didn't miss the way Nate's eyes softened when Mac got excited over a new comic, a new gun, or letter from Duncan. Nate was smitten, but only his closest friends could tell and they respected the man too much to say anything. With all the pain he had lived through, if the Merc made him happy so be it.
Till it wasn't a secret anymore.
"No... Please, no!" Mac pleaded as he tried to staunch the bleeding. "Help is coming, Nate. You need to hold on!" Blood, so much of it. "FUCK! What is taking them so long!"
They were close enough to Sanctuary to see the the distant lights when not one but two Deathclaws jumped them. A mating pair. They'd put up a good fight, but their supplies were low, planning to restock at home.
Mac put a hole in the one beast's head when the other got a lucky swipe at his back. He cried out in pain and dropped his gun. The last thing he heard was Nate's desperate cry, distantly thinking he's never heard him like that. His best friend and he's never heard that rage and despair in his voice.
Then he felt the familiar sting and 'pissht' of a stimpack he knew was their last.
When he came to a few moments later once the stim did it's job knitting his back closed, he turned to see two downed Deathclaws, and a limp bloodied body between them. In the neck of one beast was Nate's modded shotgun, the blade of it's muzzle embedded in it's throat with enough force to break the stock.
Nate's PipBoy had been equipped with an emergency distress pulse that would alert Minutemen to their location. Mac activated it before he was even on his knees.
So here he was, pleading with every god he could think of to keep Nate alive till help arrived with stims and medical supplies. "C'mon Nate," he croaked through the tears choking him. "I need you. Don't leave me alone, please. Please!"
Nate's eyes fluttered open with a groan as Mac ripped off his scarf and pressed down on the hole in his stomach to staunch the bleeding. His hands, scarf, and the ground beneath his knees now the same shade of dark, wet red. "Hey.." Nate whispered, clearly trying to comfort Mac, and didn't that just make him start sobbing harder.
"Shh, don't speak. Just stay with me, okay? You need to promise you won't leave me!"
Nate gave a weak smile, a trickle of blood on his lips. "Wish I could... Stay forever.. but I think this is it for me, Bobby."
"No no no no, don't you call me that now!" Mac cried out, somewhere between anger and affection. "You only call me that when you want something or feel you need to comfort me! Now is not the time for either!"
Nate smiled, a laugh broke into a cough and more blood painted his lips. "Im sorry Mac. I'm...coward. Never even...got to tell you...how much I love you..."
Mac paused for a moment, his heart skipped and clenched painfully till the reminded himself where he is. "I love you too buddy, but you need to pull through so I can tease you about it okay?" He sniffled.
Nate was flagging. In the distance Mac could heard Preston and Cait calling. "WE'RE OVER HERE!! HURRY!!" He called. "They're here, Nate. You're gonna be okay."
Nate shook his head, eyes fluttering closed. "Love you, Mac... Wish...I told you.."
When Nate opened his eyes it wasn't to MacCready's beautiful blue ones, but to Curie sighing in relief and muttering something that sounded like a curse in French. "Monsieur Preston! He has awoken!"
Preston's face appeared above him with a rushed scuffle of footsteps. "General! You had us terrified there!"
"where-" was all he could croak.
"You're at the RedRocket. You were gone... But Curie managed to bring you back with a pulse of a Zeta gun and 5 stimpacks. So take it easy."
The first clear thought in Nate's mind was "Mac?"
"He's fine," Hancock responded and joined their little peanut gallery next to his bedroll. "Just shook up. I called him but he's outside pacing around. Sure he'll be happy to see you."
Against Curie's advice Nate slowly sat up and stumbled to his feet. He needed to see for himself - see that MacCready was whole and alive before he could really allow himself to breathe.
Hancock helped him limp outside where he insisted he could walk (stumble) on his own over to where he could see Mac leaning against the milk machine.
He really was alive. Nate smiled and limped to him, "you're okay." He said with such relief his eyes teared up.
But the look MacCready gave him instead left ice down his spined. Mac looked at him with an expression of fear, distrust, and disgust. Nate had only seen that expression one before when he stood before Barnes and Winlock. The night he put a bullet in their heads Mac had broke down and told Nate of the 'sick' things they made him do, how they used him for their own pleasure till he managed to escape.
(That was also the night Nate swore to himself he would never, ever make a move on MacCready.)
But here stood the Merc looking at Nate like he was one of those men who used and abused him. Nate had to take a moment to swallow down the irrational tears that now threatened for a different reason as he wracked his brain for why, what did he do!
"Bobby, what's wrong?" He took a cautious step forward but froze when Mac flinched and backed into the shadows a bit.
"Don't call me that."
His words triggered the memory. He called Mac Bobby, he was begging him to stay with him...and he told Mac he loved him.
"...I'm sorry." Was the only words Nate could get out.
MacCready tossed his cigarette to the grown and sneered. "Whatever." With that he walked into the darkness towards Sanctuary.
Nate felt like he couldn't breathe. Tears rolled silently down his cheeks, cooling on his neck where his pulse was hammering. A pain sharper than any he had ever felt - be it bullet, knife, or betrayal - laced through his chest with enough force that his legs gave out.
Of all people, Deacon appeared out of nowhere to catch him. The spy said nothing as he helped Nate to the dirt and held him as quiet sobs shook his broad shoulders. He quietly held him close, angling his head to his cries were muffled against his shirt. He then silently helped Nate to the nearest sleeping bag in one of the little shacks that lined the fence around the settlement, getting up to inform the others that their fearless leader was sleeping and to not bother him.

Fallout 4 Companions react to being given a unique weapon that sole made for them
(IHSJS I suck but finally here it is! <3333) ( left out Codsie and dogmeat as they cannot hold guns (well in game at least, I could just imagine the chaos if they had one dhjhajfjjdh)
With not much to do in the wasteland at this very moment, the companions were all at their respective places, MacCready patrolled Sanctuary along with Strong, Curie was down in her own science space Sole had made for her at the Sanctuary Hot Springs (its a mod and omg is it beautiful and worth it for extra junk) X6 was in Covenant clearing out some stuff to make way for sole to build new things and bring in settlers and Hancock was back in Good Neighbour doing his mayoral duties. Cait was at the NEW combat zone that Sole had gotten fixed up, now it is a pretty little hang out spot where people can practice their combat skills and take on people in friendly duels. Piper was at Publick Occurrences and Danse had also taken up shelter in Diamond City at Home Plate, Nick Valentine was browsing through files in his office. Last that leaves Preston who was held up at the castle trying to do repairs...And lets just say all them being busy...Left Deacon to his own devices...
Sighing softly with a bag full of guns and ammo, Sole stands and begins their journey to each and everyone of their beloved companions dogmeat happily walking behind them
MacCready:
Tumblr media
Seeing Sole walk up to him as he squinted his eyes down into the old road of Sanctuary he smiles softly, lowering his gun he walks towards them as well Sole smiles at him and pulls a bag from off their shoulders ‘’here, this is for you, I mean, you don't have to use it...But I hope you like it’’ He raises an eyebrow at sole before looking down into their hands, it was a sniper that he had never seen before in all his days, even when running with the gunners he had never come across something so...Personal. ‘’I made it’’ That answered his question, he smiles and slowly places his old gun onto his back and grasps soles gift firmly ‘’Wow...Sole, I don't know what to sa-’’ ‘’Don't say anything, its a token of appreciation!’’ Sole was already running off somewhere, as always. Mac starts loading up the gun shaking his head endearingly ‘’Thanks Sole, you’re welcome RJ’’ he chuckles out trying to impersonate Soles voice
Strong:
Tumblr media
Strong was stomping his feet around holding an old bat in his big green shrek hands, he was patrolling the outside of Sanctuary, his usual rounds. there was gates,traps and defences everywhere, but sole had a lot of enemies so he couldn't take the chance. Soles legs wobbled softly as his foot steps shook the earth slightly, Strongs ears perk up and he turns sharply to sole and stomps towards them, dogmeat whimpers slightly and decides to just lay down ‘’Master! Strong has killed so many mutt dogs!’’ Dogmeat would have coughed awkwardly if he could ‘’That's...Really great Strong!, but here I have something to give to you’’ Sole slowly and with very small struggle pulls out a machine gun, but not just any machine gun. It made strongs eyes twinkle and his muscles tense up it was glorious, he immediately grabs it from soles hands and steadies it ‘’Strong put this to good use, getting rid of dogs and anyone who dare try to get into Sanctuary’’ Sole sighs contently and nods at Dogmeat to finally stand ‘’Ill see you later Strong!’’ and they were off again
Curie:
Tumblr media
Curie was very much in her own world, she didn't even hear sole and dogmeat come in, she didn't even notice them at all until sole came right up behind her and asked what she was up to, with a short squeal and a heavy breath Curie softly apologises and asks Sole what they needed ‘’Don't sweat it Curie I should have...Knocked?...Well anyway here! I wanted you to have this’’ it was a Syringer Rifle? Curie was confused at first as it looked very unique ‘’Ah yes I assume you made this?’’ Curie asks in wonderment studying the rifle and the different types of ammo sole had given her ‘’I did, I had you in mind’’ This made Curie blush, a stutter starting to form ‘’Oh my...Thank you, I will always put it to good use, but not too much use! ...yes’’ Sole smiled softly and gave her a small wave as they made their way out, curie sighed deeply in embarrassment but then smiled warmly to herself
X6:
Tumblr media
It was quite a walk to Covenant, but it wasn’t too bad for Sole and Dogmeat. They have walked much greater and harsher lengths after all, but as they finally reached the gates Sole couldn’t help but to sigh out a ‘’Thank god’’, walking into Covenant Sole could see that Deezer was still selling lemonade, thanks to Curie it was now....Well...Better and that X6 was brooding off to the side of a building, his way of ‘passing time’ he actually notices Sole first and walks up to them ‘’Sir/Ma’am good to see you’re well, what brings you here today are the settlers coming ahead of time?’’ the same formal tone as always struck sole with a small laugh ‘’No X6 I actually have something to give you’’ x6 watches through dark glasses as sole reaches into their bag and pulls out a very peculiar energy weapon ‘’I made it for you, thought it could do you well’’ X6 was very flattered Sole thought of him ‘’You didn’t need to strain yourself making this’’ Sole shakes their head ‘’I didn’t its fine, I wanted you to have something’’ X6 takes it slowly from their hands and nods ‘’Thank you sir/ma’am’’ even though it was quite a stern thank you Sole could tell he did appreciate it and smiled at him before heading off
Hancock:
Tumblr media
‘‘Alright Dogmeat, we’ve made it to Good Neighbour...Tell me why I decided to do all this today?’‘ Dogmeat woofs back at sole and they sigh softly in agreement ‘‘You’re right’‘ Sole walks all the way up to the top of the Old State House and searches around for Hancock ‘‘He must be on the balcony’‘ Sole opens the doors and there he is, Hancock looks over his shoulder and gives Sole a smile ‘‘There ya are, decided to visit this ol’ ghoul how nice’‘ Sole smiles back at him ‘‘Actually I come bearing gifts’‘ Hancock raises an eyebrow and smirks slightly ‘‘Oh didya? lets take a look see then’‘ Sole pulls out what seemed to be a double barrel shotgun but it looked a bit different than others Hancock had seen ‘‘This is for me, you shouldn't have’‘ hancock takes it in his hands and shines it softly ‘‘To show my appreciation’‘ Hancock chuckles at Soles words ‘‘Ill treasure it, truly. Thanks Sole’‘ ‘‘No problem Hancock, ill see you later’‘ and then Sole treks off again, dogmeats tail wagging happily. Hancock takes a drag off his cigarette and smiles into the sky
Cait:
Tumblr media
Cait huffed and panted heavily as she boxed a punching bag, she was happy to be active again after ...All that mess. she felt like she owed Sole the world but sole just kept giving her new things to add to the bill one day Cait would pay them back but for now she was content back in the bettered combat zone, Cait hears a particular bark and knew Sole was there as soon as she heard it, she turns and sees dogmeat woofing happily and sole walking towards her with...quite a big bag ‘’Cait!, I see you’ve gotten a workout in huh?’’ Sole said with pointed eyes, Cait snorted roughly ‘’yeah you got that right these guys don't know what they’re in for’’ Sole smiles and shakes their head digging into their bag, Cait was confused at first until Sole pulls out what Cait thinks is some kind of powerfist ‘’Whats that?’’ Sole holds it out towards Cait and smiles ‘’THAT is for you’’ Cait was shocked, as always at Soles kindness ‘’I cant- I cant accept this you’ve already don-’’ Sole shoves it towards Cait a bit more ‘’I made it for you Cait, think of it as...A Christmas present’’ Cait snorted at the phrase but slowly took it and tried it on ‘’See! looks great on you’’ Cait smiles at Sole a bit sadly ‘’Thank you...Really Sole’’ Sole pats her on the shoulder and chucks up a thumbs up as they walked away ‘’Save me a fight alright!’’
Piper:
Tumblr media
‘‘I think my legs are gonna give out soon, should we rest up after seeing Piper what do you think boy?’‘ Dogmeat barks in agreement as Sole opened the door to the Publick  ‘‘Blue! its so good too see you!’’ Piper hugged sole gently and then pulled away with a smile ‘’wow you been lugging that bag around all day?!’‘ Sole laughed softly and sighed, a bit flustered ‘‘Yeah I guess so, but its been worth it honestly, hey I got you something I hope you like it P’‘ Sole digs their arm into the bag and starts searching around, after a while they pull out a small pistol, but it wasn't just any pistol, actually it wasn’t quite like anything Piper had seen for me ‘‘Oh Blue...You didn't have to do this’‘ Piper was almost teary eyed, it probably took sole quite a while to do this ‘‘Its alright, I wanted you to have something special from me’‘ Piper and Sole smile at each other brightly and Sole goes to open the door ‘‘Thank you Blue’‘ ‘‘No problem P’’
Danse:
Tumblr media
Sole and Dogmeat enter Homeplate and immediately flop onto the couch, Sole moans out at the comfort her sore limbs felt and something clanks loudly alerting dogmeat causing him to jump off Sole on the couch and onto the ground to take a fighting stance, Danse slowly peeks his head out from the corner and sighs once he realises its sole, Sole slowly turns their head and smiles at Danse ‘’Heyyyyyy’’ Sole groans out slowly stretching out their body Danse sighs and slowly puts a palm to their back and then another, cracking their back for them ‘’god....Thank you, I’ve been walking all day with basically no rest, but god is it worth it’’ Danse raises an eyebrow at them and they slowly sit up and pat the spot next to them excitedly Danse takes a seat beside them as they ruffle through a bag and pull something out ‘’You remember the day we met’’ Danse was confused by the question but still decided to answer ‘’of course I do why do you ask?’’ Sole turned to smile at him and put something in his lap ‘’well that day you had given me a gun of your own, and now today, I’m giving you something I made for you personally’’ Danse picks up the unique energy weapon and then looks at Sole in disbelief, their eyes were big and full of energy Danse smiles warmly at them then down at the gun ‘’Thank you...’’ Sole pats him on the back and slowly stands, stretching further ‘’You deserve it’’ Sole chucks him a small smile and wave as they make their way out ‘’Outstanding’’
Nick Valentine:
Tumblr media
‘‘OH NICKYYYY’‘ Nick jumps up slightly at the sound of Soles voice and sits up in his chair ‘‘God Sole, you gotta scare the old bot huh?’‘ Sole laughed softly and placed a bag on his desk taking a seat on the edge of it ‘‘What’s this? you bring more wild animals in here...Wait don’t tell me’‘ Nick started looking around for any sign of Deacon and Sole laughs ‘‘No no! I came with gifts!’‘ Nick slowly relaxed and sat back in his chair ‘‘Ah so you’re the common day Santa Claus’‘ Sole nods at his statement and pulls out a revolver pistol of some kind ‘‘i made it myself for you, blood sweat tears and-’‘ ‘‘You had me at blood Kid/doll’‘ Sole holds back a chuckle and slowly stands ‘‘what do ya think?’‘ Nick turns back to sole and smiles ‘‘I love it, you really went all out didn’t you?’‘ Sole nods triumphantly ‘‘Yes i did!...Oh and if you see Deacon anywhere...Don’t tell him I’m looking for him’‘ Nick snorts out ‘‘You got it’‘
Preston:
Tumblr media
Sole sighed out softly it was getting real dark now ‘’I guess Deacon will have to wait till tomorrow, lets bunk up at the castle buddy’’ Dogmeat woofs and trots off to Soles bedroom there already Sole scans through everyone and their eyes finally land on the familiar hat of Preston Garvey sole with all their willpower made it over to him, softly poking his shoulder, preston turns slowly and then smiles at Sole ‘’sole, its good to see you! actually there’s a settl-’’ Sole places a finger to his lips ‘’No no...No, Preston I will deal with it I promise but can it wait until tomorrow? I’ve had the LONGEST day and I have something to give you’’ Preston blinked rapidly and then nodded Sole sighed contently and slowly pulled out a laser musket ‘’Sole this is...Quite spectacular’’ Preston was awestruck ‘’I’m glad you think so...Because its for you’’ Preston was quite shocked by soles words ‘’What? me? why?’’ Sole laughed softly and brought him into a small hug ‘’Because I care about you, and I wanted to do something special for you’’ Prestons heart swelled at their words and he grasped the gun firmly ‘’Thanks, General’’ sole giggled tiredly and made their way to their room
Deacon:
Tumblr media
It was around 3 am when Sole woke up to soft footsteps, but ignored them right after checking their pipboy, suddenly they felt eyes on them and opened their eyes to reveal a creepy bald man wearing a red sparkly dress Sole screamed out and jumped up in bed, knocking their heads together they both yelp in pain and Sole runs to turn the lights on and points a gun at the man ‘’Sole!’’ the familiar voice helped them realise it was deacon and they grumbled tiredly ‘’Deacon what were you doing watching me sleep!...and why the tutu...WAIT have you been following me all day! I knew I felt eyes on me’’ Sole rubbed their temples as Deacon slowly got onto his knees and held out his hands, doing a grabby action at them Sole sighed deeply and bit their lip, walking over to their bag they slowly pulled out Deacons gift and laid it in his hands, he smiles widely as he pulls his hands down to look at it his eyes sparkled behind his sunglasses, it was a pistol with a silencer at the end like the deliverer ‘’Sole...You shouldn’t have’’ Deacon fake cries out and hugs onto Soles leg Sole cuts their eyes to Dogmeat and rolls them with a smile down at Deacon. with a sore body and a pulled muscle in their legs they sigh softly
‘‘It was worth it’‘
(finally finished it!!! I hope yall like it sjdihsaj <3333!!)

Fallout 4 Companions react to Sole giving them surprise kisses????
FO4Companions React to Surprise Kisses
Cait
It’s not wise to sneak up on Cait. Ever. That doesn’t stopSole though, even if there have been times where they’d almost get an elbow orfist to the stomach or face, some even managing to collide. Even after sherealises its Sole she’d punch them in the shoulder as payback; not before asteamy make-out session though.
Maybe a few butt grabs.
Curie
Shed jump for a moment but soon burst into a fit of giggleswhen realizing it’s only Sole. Small acts like this never fail to lift her moodand shed always try and make them last as long as possible by wrapping her armsaround their neck, returning the kiss with her fingers running through Soleshair.
Danse
The poor man would have no idea to react, Sole would onlyever do it whenever he’s not in his power armour; when they’re actually able tohug him. It flusters him to no end, confused how such a simple act could makehim lose control over his body; his face red and his heart racing to thethought he’d worry if others could hear it. He’d always return the kiss with asmall peck on Soles nose or forehead, then try his hardest to act as if hewasn’t embarrassed.
Deacon
It’s hard to take Deacon by surprise; your best bet would begetting him while he’s asleep, though even then you most likely won’t be ableto wake him up. That doesn’t stop Sole from trying their damn best. They’dalways try and hug him from behind out of nowhere but like a third sense hejust steps to the side and watches them fall to the floor. It’d then be him whowould pull them up and peck their lips
‘Maybe next time?’
There would always be a next time.
Dogmeat
In cases of surprise hugs and kisses, Dogmeat is more of agiver than a receiver; and whenever Sole manages to sneak up and give him a hughe’s always quick to take control and pounce on them, slobbering all over Solesface with wet doggy kisses. Surprise or not; hugs and kisses with Dogmeat willalways, ALWAYS, be the messiest.
Hancock
This smooth motherfucker. Doesn’t matter if it’s a surprise,doesn’t matter if Sole only intended it to be a quick peck, he’d always make itlast 10x longer than planned; not that Sole would mind. Hancock wouldn’t besatisfied with a small kiss, like hell he would be. He couldn’t be damned wherethey were or who was watching; he’d always pull them back to him, capturingtheir lips in a kiss which took the air out of Soles lungs to the point they’redizzy afterwards. A sly smirk on his lips and his hand staying glued on theirwaist.
MacCready
No matter how old RJ may be he will always be a child on theinside, he’d giggle and always return the kiss, snaking his arms around Soleswaist to prolong the exchange. A wide grin would be plastered on his face forthe time he has them in his arms, eventually nuzzling his face into Soles neckwith a hum of content.
Nick
He was used to Sole kissing his cheek whenever they had to leavethe agency, and even though hed always feel his mechanical body wirr slightlylouder than before, eventually it just wasn’t enough. One day while seeing Solelean in to kiss his cheek, he turned his head j u s t enough so they’d touchhis lips instead. He’d try and play it off as an accident but he just can’thide his smugness about Soles flustered reaction. Regardless it’s definitelysomething that would happen again in the future.
Piper
Poor Piper would never know how to handle it. She’d always beso confused about what she should do and always resort into mustering out somesort of thanks whenever Sole surprised her with a kiss, her eyes lookingeverywhere but theirs. It’s not long however when she pays them back by givingthem a surprise kiss of her own, her face still red but this time her eyesstaring right into Soles, her heart picking up at the reaction she manages toget out of them.
Preston
PDA is something Preston will never be confident about, andhed always be afraid of making Sole uncomfortable by out of the blue kissingthem. So it was basically always Sole who would surprise the man with theoccasional smooch.  He’d have thegoofiest smile on his face and it’d stay on his face for ages. He’d always tryand prolong the exchange by holding Soles hands and give them a loving andpassionate kiss, which never fails to make both of their faces red.
X6-88
There’s really no way to describe X6 in situations like thisother than robotic, as ironic as it is. As he gets comfortable with Solethough, had get more and more comfortable, slowly returning the kiss, andeventually biting their lip. Until one day it’s like a switch has flipped andhe pulls them back almost aggressively and returns the kiss, tongue and all; leavingSole breathless each and every time.

Fallout 4 companions react to you embarrassing them
Cait:
Tumblr media
She doesn’t really get embarrassed, she ain’t even mad she owns whatever it is that you say, you could tell people she sneezed and then got explosive diarrhoea that then got in your eyes and she wouldn’t even bat an eye...But she might bat you
Codsworth: 
Tumblr media
‘‘And then when we uploaded Fisto’s data to him he would not stop-’‘ ‘‘SIR/MUM this is madness you must stop this immediately everything they told you was lies!’‘ very huffy robot butler I do declare
Curie:
Tumblr media
‘‘And curie having just got her new body asked me too get a wrench and- ‘‘ ‘‘Oh no!... can we not talk about zis...’‘ blushy nanny bot turned synth can’t handle embarrassment well 
Danse:
Tumblr media
‘‘Anyway we were out exploring on a hot day and Danse’s power armour started to get too uncomfortable but it wouldn’t come off so I had to pull this thing connected to his cod plate and then he-’‘ ‘’that’ll be enough solider!’‘ 
Deacon:
Tumblr media
Another one who doesn’t get embarrassed though, sometimes you two have a bet on who can embarrass the other the most one time in particular he was very proud of you ‘’So there we were, 100 feral ghouls surrounding us at all sides, Deacon had a stomach ache all day and we thought because of that we were gone for sure, anyway we embrace each other spill out our hearts and right as they all come running up...This intense rumbling noise happened I thought there was some sort of earthquake, but then. The smell hit my nostrils, like rotted egg and mouldy cheese...my eyes well up at the stench I almost cried and I let go of Deacon...he was patting his stomach happily while all the ghouls around us lay dead’’ he was very okay with losing that one but everyone else was disgusted beyond all lines
Dogmeat:
Tumblr media
Don't even think about it you MONSTER
Hancock:
Tumblr media
Doesn't reaallllyyy get embarrassed, but he does get upset if you do it on purpose and not in a joking way, but if you’re just playing around then you can just pray that he doesn’t bounce back just as hard ‘’and then high off his mind peeled off some of his skin and ate it’’ ‘’do ya remember that time you felt sick and threw up into Danse’s power armour suit? or was I high off my mind then too’’
MacCready:
Tumblr media
Little man Robert Joseph ‘RJ’ MacCready was making his way happily back to his friend the Sole Survivor smiling happily, smelling of garbage, he opens the door eager to greet them ‘’ And then he turns to me and goes ‘’Wait you mean to tell me its NOT supposed to be green?’’ he goes pale, Sole and Hancock turn to him with toothy grins, he immediately leaves and doesn’t come back for a week
Nick Valentine:
Tumblr media
Nick can get quite sour with you sometimes when embarrassed, sometimes he laughs it off a bit grumpily, but either way he isn’t too happy with you unless its well placed and very light hearted ‘’Nick do you remember that time you had ‘a leak’ and everything was covered in tar for ages and made you short circuit and you ended up hip thrusting in place for a few minutes until Sturges came to try and fix you’’ Sole said at the dinner table surrounded by all of their friends, Nick takes his head in his hands and sighs deeply
Piper:
Tumblr media
‘‘Blue now is not the time please stop!’‘ ‘‘Shhh Piper, anyway so there we are the middle of Nuka World, piper lets out this giant burp, the traders were terrified out of their minds, they thought the raiders were back!’‘ expect a lot of glaring, but she still loves you so its fine
Preston:
Tumblr media
‘‘Preston one time got so drunk in good neighbour, he stripped down to his underwear in the middle of the street and started screaming the lyrics to sixty minute man, some woman screamed out if that was true and as he went to reply he tripped over nothing and fell face first into the pee bucket’‘ ...He wanted at the moment, nothing less and nothing more, than the sweet release of death 
Strong:
Tumblr media
You die
X6-88:
Tumblr media
As a synth courser he isn’t exactly sure what feeling he is feeling when it happens, but he is feeling it ‘’He turns to me and says, Ma’am hypothetically, if, I were to partake in the holiday, would the Easter Bunny be white and pink or multicoloured I have heard it was either way, and how big was he?’’ doesn’t speak to you for days afterwards
DLC:
Ada:
Tumblr media
Shuts herself down before you could even open your mouth, also why would you even do that to Ada smh
Old Longfellow:
Tumblr media
This terrifies you so much you just stop talking
Porter Gage:
Tumblr media
‘‘And Gage says ‘hey we should jump off the top of the building to see what happens’‘ I agree and then as we go to jump I wait for him and I don’t move, I watched him plummet to the ground and break both his ankles, as he hit the ground he yelped ‘MUMMY’ ‘‘ ‘‘HAHAHAHA, so fucking funny...Idiot’‘
(im sorry for the long wait huehuehue)
