#oc; cobalt bishop-king

[gohnnyjuitar]

Can I get a #3, a #9, a #14 and a #20 of the Oc ask for a Romulus and Colbat combo? Ich tausche mit Ihnen im Voraus Kekse.

my partner is learning german and they were thrilled to be able to translate this for me dfjkhgd

Cobalt would love to share a cookie (Romulus is like a feral kitten and has to be coaxed out of the gutter however)

3. How would they describe love?

answered here for Romulus! :)

As for Cobalt, love is difficult for him to describe. It's confusing. It's something that comes naturally to him but it's scary. How can something feel so freeing and exciting but also so demanding and claustrophobic? He sees his younger brother with his wife and his family and he knows that's what love is supposed to be. He almost had that with his childhood best friend once they had grown up a little, but where Mercedes wanted to settle down, Cobalt wanted the freedom to roam. He was too young and there was still so much to see, he explained. He loved her dearly but he loved the idea of the world, too.

9. Do they think they’d make a good parent, regardless of whether they want kids or not?

Romulus fears becoming his father. What if having a kid flips a switch and turns him cruel and distant, just like Lupus? It was the only example he ever had so what if he gets it wrong? So, no, Romulus thinks he would make a poor excuse for a parent.

Cobalt thinks kids are great; they're funny, they're creative, they're brutally honest in the most innocent way. He absolutely adores his nieces and nephew and loves being the cool uncle. However, he can't see himself having kids; it's a responsibility he doesn't want to have. He does think that, maybe, he'd make a cool dad, but he'll never find out and he's okay with that.

14. What smells or tastes do you associate with them?

Romulus gets the obligatory leather and motor oil smell 90% of my ocs have, since he actually works on and maintains a motorcycle. Under all that, the sagebrush that thrives in the Mojave.

For Cobalt, it's fresh pine mountain air and the slight smell of smoke that lingers for the briefest of moments after firing his bow. Also, potentially, burnt hair whenever Dyna's explosive arrows don't work like they should.

20. Would they make vines if they could?

Despite probably having great e-boy potential, Romulus wouldn't really care to make them.

Cobalt, however, is a massive social butterfly and would eat that shit up. In modern aus he's a travel blogger and loves the attention social media gets him. He would love to make stupid little vines.

1 and 4. You pick the oc(s).

rubbing my grimy little hands together i love choosing

1. a song lyric that makes you think of them

Cobalt

"So tonight, let's set the bar low Just be young, in love, and dumb enough to say If tonight is all we get then that's okay It's all good today"

It's All Good Today - Patent Pending

90% of Cobalt's playlist is very upbeat and brings up loving life. this little bit makes me think of him because of his easy going attitude that lets most anything roll off his shoulders :)

Anthony

"I've got no need for open roads Cause all I own fits on my back I see the world from rusted trains And always know I won't be back"

Ghost Towns - Radical Face

every time i hear this song on Tony's playlist, it curses me with an animatic that i will never make because i have no patience. after leaving his vault, Tony travels all over the place, and this song always gives me the image of him balancing on old railway tracks across a field where a rusted old train is on its side. it's moments like that where Tony can pretend things aren't so bad.

4. a song lyric to describe their personality

Sandra

"Got a pistol for a mouth, my own mama gave me that Makin' my own road outta gravel and some wine And if I have to fall, then it won't be in your line"

Black Sheep - Gin Wigmore

Sandra is very much a rabble-rouser and hates being told what to do or when to do it. this little bit of the song describes her perfectly tbh

Anthony

"You're here for a reason but you don't know why You're split and uneven, your hands to the sky"

False Confidence - Noah Kahan

despite being relatively famous in the pre-war world, Anthony is a pretty timid and laid back guy. he could always handle being in front of the camera, but god did he hate every second of it. post-war, he deals with a lot of self-doubt about why he got to survive the bombs in a cushy vault when plenty of more qualified people suffered. he hardly ever talks about these doubts at all.

2 and 4 for tex, cobalt, rose, and romulus 😈

"what's the evil face for" i wondered before i spent an hour and a half hunched over this ask

2. a song lyric to describe their love life

Tex

"Yeah, I'm scared but I'll disappear Running around before it corners you Like he's someone who lost his way"

Houdini - Foster the People

a lot of the songs on his playlist that are about relationships are from the pov of the people he's broken the hearts of :') this one part of Houdini is chef kiss for an anxiety filled cowboy who only realizes what he had when he's disappeared for several month's with no goodbye!

Cobalt

"I can tell that you're tired But you keep the car on While you're waiting out front"

400 Lux - Lorde (runner up song was Happy Accidents - Saint Motel)

Cobalt is a very "live fast, die young" kind of fella, even with him approaching his 40s. his major relationships end (Mercedes) or almost end (Remington) because Cobalt is faced with the fear of settling down and becoming stuck (even though neither of those relationships asked him to give up what he loves to do, which is travel). this bit makes me think about Cobalt in the sense that, he sees that his partner wants to slow down and settle in, so Cobalt springs for more travel and more exploration because he's scared he'll get stuck.

what's funny is i think you added this song to their playlist dfhhgf

Rose

"I just want to love you, to love you, to love you well I just want to learn how, somehow, to be loved myself"

Two - Sleeping at Last

Rose is a fixer, and it's easier to fix everyone around her than it is to try to fix herself, especially after losing her memories. surely if everyone around her is happy, then she can be, too. Rose puts her all into a relationship because, for a while, she feels like she has to earn reciprocated love.

Romulus

"I took a low road in I'll take the high road out I'll do whatever it takes to be the mistake you can't live without"

The High Road - Three Days Grace

this bit basically has to do with Romulus being full of self-hatred and regrets. he doesn't understand why Rose gives him the time of day, let alone insists on helping him when she has a million of her own things going on. it goes from him begrudgingly thinking he owes her for helping him, to him fearing the worst because he's developed feelings. in the end, she makes him want to be a better person.

4. a song lyric to describe their personality

Tex

"I'm a hold my cards close I'm a wreck what I love most I'm a first class letdown I'm a "shut up, sit down""

Polaroid - Imagine Dragons

i think this is a pretty god summary of Tex's personality whether he realizes it or not. he's pretty good at freaking out and wrecking something good and not talking about any of his own personal issues. smiley face

Cobalt

"I wanna taste love and pain Wanna feel pride and shame I don't wanna take my time Don't wanna waste one line"

Could Have Been Me - The Struts

Cobalt loves life and all the experiences it can bring. a lot of his personality revolves around wanting to not miss an opportunity to experience something new and incredible. he's a very open minded and happy fella :)

Rose

"When they see you around You look down at the ground But when they walk away You wish they'd stay"

Bleeding Heart - Regina Spektor

a big part of Rosemary's character is her struggle with low self esteem and how this affects her normally happy disposition. she loves people and loves interacting with them, but there's always that horrible feeling gnawing at her insisting that they have no interest in her.

Romulus

"You were a child who was made of glass You carried a black heart passed down from your dad If somebody loved you they'd tell you by now"

That's Okay - The Hush Sound

this just so happens to be like one of the most recent songs on Romulus' playlist and boy does it make me think of how he's trying to come to terms with his father's emotional abuse and shitty childhood that he misses sometimes despite himself :)

[gohnnyjuitar]

genuinely i would love to write Cobalt’s story but the type of person he is, it’s much better told a la sitcom

[gohnnyjuitar]

21 and 22 for the 4 ocs you listed :]

21. What flowers do you associate with them?

Tex - Sunflower

Tony - Forget-Me-Not

Rose - Cactus Flower

Cobalt - Cornflower ( aka Bachelor's Button, which i think is a really cute name :] )

22. If they could be in a different story of a different genre, what genre would they choose?

Does New Vegas qualify as a western? Tex would absolutely want to be in a western

Tony I feel like would want to be in something laid back, probably a rom-com

Rose would want to be in a fantasy/sci-fi genre; she loves outer space :) she also loves helping others, which is huge in these genres more often than not

Cobalt would be quick to jump into something dramatic like a spy/action movie, but he'd absolutely end up in a sitcom/comedy

He is followed west by Remus, intent on proving his worth and ability to take over their father’s position. Romulus falls in with Rosemary after she patches him up. The brothers face off at the Second Battle for Hoover Dam and only one survives. Romulus is high strength, high perception, and his main weapon in a compound bow. Remus is high strength, high endurance, and his main weapons are throwing knives and dual blades.

Fallout 4

Anthony Mateo Rosario

Male, 32 years old. Prewar Olympic sprinter and gymnast. He was put into Vault 121 along with several other athletes and personal trainers, where they would undergo one of many of Vault-tec’s questionable vault experiments. Nanites were injected into the bloodstream in weekly “boosters” under the guise of building up their immune systems to be able to leave the Vault. Several participants died, along with the original Vault staff, who were not given the injections. Anthony travels after leaving the Vault with another prewar athlete, settling in New Vegas for a while and raising Rosemary, before the two go separate ways. Anthony travels back home to Boston where he joins up with the Railroad. High perception, high agility. His main weapon is a sniper rifle, while his secondary ends up being the Deliverer.

Seth Seymour

Male, 27 years old. Prewar marine. Seth is on leave with his family in Sanctuary Hills when the bombs drop, leading to him becoming the Sole Survivor of Vault 111. Though he sides with the Brotherhood of Steel out of familiarity- military structure- he eventually leaves upon finding out Danse is a synth. The two take up residence in Sanctuary Hills with the Minutemen. High strength; main weapon is an assault rifle. He and Anthony knew one another prewar- Anthony had been engaged to Seth’s sister- and the two constantly butt heads.

Joan Duval

Female, 30 years old. General of the Minutemen. After Seth helps the Minutemen back to Sanctuary Hills, he leaves them to their own devices. Joan, who was part of the Minutemen before their fall in Concord, hears of them setting up shop in this prewar community and rejoins their efforts, eventually working her way up to General. Sympathizes with the Railroad; happily shelters synths escaping from the Institute and Railroad agents. High charisma, high strength. Though she prefers talking through things, her main weapon is a combat shotgun.

Fallout 76

Sandra “Sandy” King

Female, 24 years old. Born inside Vault 76 a year after the door is shut and the bombs drop. Spends an extensive amount of time alone once the doors reopen until people start returning to Appalachia. High endurance, high luck, low charisma. Her main weapon is a modded shotgun and she’s almost always covered in dried blood. Definitely the most feral of all the ocs. Directly related to Tex.
