Some of my favorite Porter Gage lines!

“Keep your irradiated ASS away from me” 

“Boss”  

“Piss me off and I’ll still kick your ass from here to the Atlantic.” 

“Sure was fun! Huh Boss?” 

“I ain’t got the brains for mazes” 

“How's it go? “This town ain't big enough for you and me?” Awh nevermind :(“ 

“Ain't no way people paid for this shit, I refuse to believe it.” 

“Who the hell's idea of fun was this shit?”

“Ever feel the tiniest bit hurt that the institute hasn’t tried to replace you with a synth? I mean c’mon! I’m important. I-I’m worth replacing......” 

“Think about it…. If beer is still good after two hundred years.. Is it really something worth drinking?” 

“Personally, wouldn’t ever trust anyone to knock me out with gas or whatever, even if they claimed they were going to help.” 

“Can you imagine… having so much extra shit you’d need someplace to store it all” 

“Not paying ATTENTION-” (I fuck up a lot and trigger traps LOL)

“Once upon a time, I suppose folks had nothing better to do than sit around outside”

“Greeaaat, because I ain’t seen enough trees and grass.” 

“Like I hadn’t already seen enough glowing shit to last a lifetime.” 

“Believe it or not, this is more civilized than some places i've lived”

"One of these bugs ever takes me down you tell people I died from trippin’ over my gun, fallin’ off a cliff, anything! It would be less embarrassing.” 

“Places like this….Makes me realize life was mostly shit before the bombs fell” 

“God…. Being in here is soul sucking.” 

“I hope you know where you’re going, I forgot my map.” 

“Least we ain't gotta worry about being hit by a train…..Right?”

“Me? I like night time. Something about it just feels right.” 

“You’re a real stunner, ya know that?”

“You’re my kind of crazy boss.” 

“Boy do I love watching you work.” 

“Anyone ever tell you….your ass looks great in that vault suit.” 

“Don’t know about you, but I can’t see in the dark.” 

“You’ll always be the overboss of my heart- Hehehehe I couldn’t do it, I couldn’t keep a straight face.”

“Blamo” 

“Sheeeeeettt” 

“Don't mind me, just throwing up a bit in my mouth here.” 

“Damn, I hate insects. Like I needed something else to wipe off my fucking shoes” 

“VerMIN”

Everything. Just everything he says is wonderful. His voice is so fucking sexy.

"I'm not that big of a dick"

"Bullshit. Without me I'd be scraping your guts off the floor"

"Before you start pissing all over the plan, why don't you take a minute to hear me out."

"You ready to listen?"

"You're one ruthless son of a bitch aren't ya?"

"Awwwhh C'mon :("

"Just give this a chance, you might even have a little fun."

"Tell yuh whut."

"Everything all peachy with our friendly neighborhood psychopaths?"

"Welcome home, boss."

"I knew you had it in you."

"Next, the fun stuff."

"You look like shit."

He refers to getting high as "Getting blitz." LOL

"Well that oughta make things more interesting"

"hehehe OOPS."

"The fun we can have in this thing!"

"That one have pictures in it?"

"I like a good haul as much as the next guy-"

"You sure you got everything? There's a few more rocks you haven't picked up."

"I never had the hands for that kind of shit. Glad you do."

"You got some nimble fingers there huh?"

"You okay?" (When he shows concern?? UGH)

"Well now, would you look at that."

"Oh for the love of-"

"You gonna build me something nice?"

"Lookin good, Boss."

"oooh, gutsy."

"Pretty tough mutt you got there." (Any dialogue about Dogmeat is great)

"Aww, look at how nice and clean this is, and I here am, dirtying the place up." (one of my favorites)

There's so so many more but I didn't want this to get crazy long

I tried my hand at Raider foreplay the moment I got Gage as a companion 😂 @wasteland-wrecker

I can’t get over the noise that’s made when Gage gets slammed into the ground 💀

I also didn’t mean to punch him before body slamming him 😂😭

Porter Gage and my Overboss Lilly!

[nerdygoth77]

Savoy's Knife Trick

Have you ever seen the movie Aliens? This drabble is based on a scene in the movie called Bishop’s knife trick. It gave me major Redeye being bullied by Gage vibes and I just had to write it. Gage’s voice actor(Mark Rolston) is actually in this movie and very sexy too, I highly recommend watching the movie for several reasons, and watching him do shirtless pull-ups is one of those reasons.

Mark Rolston's character, Drake, and what he does in this scene is the exact same as Gage in this fic! While the character Hudson(Bill Paxton) is Redeye, and Bishop is Savoy.

I decided to link the movie scene here! This scene is such a fun part of this incredible movie. Bill Paxton has always had major Redeye vibes to me, and of course Mark Rolston is literally Porter Gage.

I posted this work on AO3 as part of my Gage drabble series. Read it and more here at AO3!!

Or just read it below! :)

Redeye sat at the bar, surveying the crowd in Cappy’s Cafe. The place was packed. Drinking Buddy had just made a massive fresh batch of beer, and a group of Operators with instruments was supposed to come play some live music. The band and the drinks were so good that they brought in quite a few important customers.

On the opposite end of the bar sat the Overboss and Gage, along with Mason. The boss had a bottle in her hand as she talked loudly to Gage and Mason, a wide smile on her freckled face. She was leaning on Gage, the painfully sober raider holding onto her waist like a lifeline. Dogmeat was lying by their feet, his head resting on his paws. Mason, not sporting his face paint, stood beside the couple, smirking as the Overboss talked. Redeye would bet money on it that she was a bit buzzed and incredibly entertaining.

The bar was crowded, full of members of each gang. Savoy was even out today, sitting in the darkest corner possible with a few other Disciples. Savoy rarely crawled out of the hole he called home just to come drink with friends, he must've run out of blood to drink or something.

“Savoy!” Redeye shouted, the masked face of the Disciple enforcer turning his direction, “Do the thing with the knife! ” He said, pulling a combat knife from his boot and holding the handle out towards Savoy. “C’mon man! Do the knife thing!” He beckoned the raider over.

Savoy grinned and jumped to his feet, walking slowly to Redeye. He moved like a predator, the crowd growing silent. Raiders wordlessly stepped out of Savoy's way as he approached Redeye. Savoy’s grin turned more snake-like when he got closer to Redeye, Redeye having no idea that Gage was stalking up behind him. When Savoy grabbed the knife from his hand, Gage grabbed Redeye and put him in a tight hold. Redeye began panicking internally but tried to keep his cool.

“Yeah, do the knife thing, Savoy.” Gage mocked in his southern drawl, tightening his muscular arms around Redeye, securing him with a thick arm around his throat. “Gage what are you doing man…” Redeye mumbled, “Oh just shut up.” Gage sneered as he grabbed Redeye’s hand and put it on the table, holding his wrist so Redeye couldn’t move it.

Savoy put his hand over his, “Hey man! Not me! Not me!” Redeye shouted, panic melting into his voice. Gage practically growled out his words, “Yes you! Now shut up, don’t move… Do it Savoy!” Savoy smirked devilishly as he flipped the knife a few times in his hand, twirling it a few times just to show off. It also made Redeye incredibly nervous, which was just what Savoy wanted.

“Oh fuck….Guys quit messing around!” Redeye shouted as he tried to squirm out of Gage’s hold, Gage securing him a bit better so Redeye couldn’t move at all. The panic really began to set in.

Redeye felt like he was about to lose his hand or life, the fear making him sweat. He couldn’t see Gage but he knew he was sporting a shit-eating grin. ”Don’t move” Gage said again, tightening his grip further. He was holding him so tight Redeye felt like he couldn't breath, his breaths coming in short rushed bursts. The crowd of the bar, plus a few people who heard the commotion from outside, had gathered around them. Everyone was waiting for a trick or to see if Savoy and Gage were going to finally slaughter Redeye. It was impossible to tell which. The Overboss even had a front-row seat, a grin on her pretty face.

Redeye really thought he was about to die.

Savoy twirls the knife in his hand one last time before slamming it between his and Redeye’s fingers. Redeye let out a high pitched scream that some would call "unmanly" as Savoy quickly slams the knife between each of their fingers in the typical Five Finger Fillet fashion.

Redeye screams grow louder as Savoy’s pace quickens, the raider not nicking their fingers or missing his mark. Savoy continued to increase the speed of the knife, Redeye screaming as he helplessly watched, waiting to lose a finger. Gage couldn’t contain his laughter and was practically giggling as Redeye screamed.

The crowd had grown, the loud cheers and laughter of the crowd almost muting the screams of Redeye. Redeye was too focused on his hand and the knife going between his fingers to notice who in the crowd was laughing at him. He’d worry about payback later, if he survived…..

Savoy was fast and perfect, not slipping once. Redeye was worried that he’d “slip” and end up stabbing him in the throat or something. Sweat rolled down Redeye’s temple as he continued to shout like a man being tortured, his eyes following the quick movements of the blade.

After going through their fingers multiple times Savoy slammed the knife deep into the table beside Redeye’s hand, Savoy's chest moving quickly as he breathed heavily from the excitement. The horrible snake smirk was still on Savoy’s face. He didn’t say anything, he just stared at Redeye to unnerve him further. It worked, Redeye looking away from him.

Porter Gage let go of Redeye and stepped back. He dropped a cold beer in front of him, the beer sloshing over the rim and onto Redeye’s hand. Redeye jumped a bit when the cold liquid hit him, flinching even harder when Gage slapped his shoulder hard enough to sting. “Drink up.” Gage chuckled, walking back to his seat and the Overboss.

Redeye tried to get his breathing and heart rate under control, his voice a little breathless, “Not cool man! Fuck you guys!” Savoy bared his teeth like a wild animal before walking away from Redeye. He walked back to his dark corner full of Disciples. Nisha had decided to join the party, Savoy sitting down beside her, their knees bumping together. Redeye still believed that they were fucking. It was one of his favorite rumors and boy did it make sense when you watched the two interact.

Gage laughed and sat down beside Lilly, watching as Redeye took a shaky sip of his beer. “Goddamn that was entertaining. I want to do that again.” Gage spoke loudly enough for Redeye to hear, returning his arm to its rightful place around Lilly’s waist. Lilly giggled and pressed a kiss to the pulse point on his throat. Gage leaned down to whisper something in her ear, the Overboss blushing and shoving him away while giggling, Gage grinning at her before leaning in for a kiss.

Redeye looked away from them, they were too gross to watch for any longer. The way they looked at one another made Redeye want to puke.

He’d have to think of a way to tell this story in a way that didn’t make him seem like a coward. He’d some some more beer to think that hard, maybe some Mentats too…. He waved over Drinking Buddy so he could get to thinking.

How would Lilly meet Porter Gage, if not through the Nuka World Gauntlet?

My honest reaction when reading this ask:

Okay but seriously!! I didn't expect anybody to take interest in my OC Lilly and her story with Porter Gage!! I am so happy that some of you are taking interest in her character, I love answering questions about her!

So I've only thought about this briefly! So my thoughts for how she meets Gage are nothing more than silly ideas so far, nothing has really been set in stone or even thought out throughly. Everything in this is just pure brain rot ideas that I have been considering!

I LOVE the Nuka World Gauntlet and I love to picture Lilly absolutely kicking ass in the Gauntlet; impressing Gage and the others as her and Dogmeat take on the challenges like champs. Then Lilly kills Colter without a second thought, becoming Overboss immediately.

But I also have a few other ideas brewing. Like Gage coming across Lilly. How?? I don't really know the nitty gritty of exactly how. But I do have a brief unfinished idea so far. Maybe theres some stories and rumors about some crazy wastelander who has been hiding out not far from the Nuka World transit center. Or maybe something else?? Maybe he figured out who she was before she became a crazy wastelander, like he knows how she had turned Goodneighbor into an empire. Maybe they meet well before Nuka World is even a thought in Gage's mind?? IDK yet! But I do really like the idea of Gage getting to know her a bit better before asking her to kill Colter and take his place as Overboss.

I just love the idea of Porter Gage coming across Lilly and her terrifying companion Dogmeat after a big fight. Picture this; She's just standing in the middle of the ruins of an old town, a dozen dead supermutants surrounding her. She's in some ratty old jeans and an Atom Cats jacket, and covered head to toe in mutant blood. She's breathing heavily and shaking, clearly in a drug fueled rush. The bright pink nail filled baseball bat and broken pistol at her feet tell a story, one of her insane bravery and recklessness. She is clearly in desperate need of a turn around, and Gage has the perfect offer for her.

The dog at her side is massive, the colorful red bandana around his neck standing out against his brown fur, but blending in well with the blood that covered his muzzle and paws.

When he looks up from the dog and back to her he sees that she's staring right at him, her hand in a fist at her side. One that was clearing giving a command, the dog at her hip getting into that low attack position. She is ready to sick her dog on him, to have the beast rip out his throat. But she doesn't, instead she asks him a question.

"What do you want? Any sane man would've attacked me by now." And the smirk that crosses her face is dangerous, one that Gage returns. "Well I'm no sane man, and you look like a woman who knows how to get shit done." and Lilly can't help but be intrigued by the new stranger.

He was clearly a raider, and by the looks of him one she should absolutely not trust. But her life is already a mess and she has nothing else to possibly lose, so she listens to his job proposition and goes with him.

Once again, these are just thoughts for now! But let me know what you think! Do you have any thoughts on Gage and Lilly?

[nerdygoth77]

Did Lily ever hookup with any of the other companions and what factions did she work with before arriving to Nuka World?

Was she the typical civilian (minuteman type) and got corrupted by the wasteland/enticed by the raiders of Nuka World or was she always a little Neutral Evil?

Sorry if this is a bit of a long ask I'm just curious 😂

Never apologize for a long ask!! I love in depth questions like this!! I really loved this ask and was so excited I had to answer this the moment I saw it!! This answer is super long btw! I couldn't JUST answer these questions, I had to give you a full history of my OC.

So I have been thinking of Lilly's story for a long time, along with her character development. She is originally based on my evil Overboss playthrough of Fallout 4 where I completely ignore the main story LOL. I get to Nuka World as soon as possible by leveling up, mostly by doing Good Neighbor and Cabot family/Edward Deegan missions.

So Lilly's story isn't quite set in stone! But my main idea so far is that she is pre-war. Lilly does come from Vault 111 but she isn't the mother of Shaun and isn't the Sole Survivor. That's her brothers problem, who gets out of the vault a few days before she does. He goes one way, using his military training and desire for revenge to survive, becoming the leader of the minutemen(or he joins the Brotherhood. Maybe both?? idk yet) Meanwhile Lilly escapes Vault 111 and goes a completely different direction.

The vault is picked clean, and the body's of her brother and nephew are missing, while her sister in laws corpse has a bullet in her skull. Lilly finds no sign of her brother, and doesn't search too hard either. She leaves the vault, avoiding the neighborhood of Sanctuary and the possible people that lived there, their campfires burning brightly in the night only deterring her away.

Lilly's pre-war life wasn't military like her brothers. She was a "no good hippie" who was between jobs and staying with her brother and his wife until she "got back on her feet," Her brother took her in. In return she would help her PTSD stricken brother and his depressed wife take care of their brand new infant son.

Lilly was seen as no good to most in the pre irradiated world. She had been a part of the large underground punk scene in Boston, becoming a disgrace to her family and a nuisance towards the police. Her life had always been chaos, never knowing quite what she wanted to do as she jumped from job to job trying to keep money in her pocket that was instantly spent on drugs and lipstick.

Lilly doesn't even spare a second glance at the vault or neighborhood as she heads into the wasteland. She is more than prepared to leave her old life behind in the ashes of the old world, so she immediately finds a change of clothes, some chems, and heads towards Boston. She doesn't know why Boston, maybe just morbid curiosity of what the city had turned into. Maybe in search for drugs and answers to why she was still living. Her mindset is that of a depressed addict. Nothing on her mind but that next hit that would bring her that sweet rush of endorphins.

She enters the world with little to no knowledge. She can fight decently with her fists and switchblade, pick locks, run her mouth and hardly shoot a gun. She has a rough time getting to Boston, the weirdly smart German Shepherd she finds at a gas station, and lovingly names Dogmeat, helps her survive her first few weeks in the wasteland.

Soon she finds herself in Boston, and like all drifters, she quickly finds herself in Goodneighbor. She immediately sees the potential in the city and in its mob boss ghoul mayor. Lilly and Hancock quickly become romantically involved. (She is def fucking Maccready in secret too. But RJ is nothing more than some fun to her. She also has a fling with Edward Deegan who she also meets in Goodneighbor when he comes offering a job.)

In my au Hancock is a bit darker and mob boss like, Lilly corrupting him slightly. She helps clean up the city, both metaphorically and physically. She wipes the triggermen out, and takes down Marowski. Long story short they take over his chem empire and become the main chem bosses and suppliers of the commonwealth. They build Goodneigbor into an empire. Her charisma and luck are incredibly high, making it all the easier for her.

John teaches Lilly about the Commonwealth, about proper fighting and weapons. She gains as much knowledge as she can about the new world, settling into the line of leadership and manipulation well. But John wants something real and long term. He loves her, but Lilly doesn't love him in return. He has big ideas for the future, from helping synths to building supply lines to marrying her. Lilly doesn't share the same feelings or ambitions, so she leaves.

She takes her knowledge and weapons of the new world and leaves Goodneighbor without warning and without a trace. She disappears yet again into the wasteland until the best thing to ever happen to her since finding Dogmeat happens. She finds Nuka World and meets Porter Gage. Or maybe he finds her instead?? I don't quite have how they meet picked out yet but I have some ideas!

So yes, Lilly has always been a bit evil! She had a few loose screws in the beginning and the Cryo pod only made it worse. She is corrupted before the bombs, but the wasteland corrupts her further and further. By the time she reaches Nuka World she is already a pretty bad person who is scarred inside and out. Meeting and joining the raiders only corrupt her further. Gage actually helps her get clean and off of chems, but she does get a little crazier. But she couldn't be happier. Porter Gage and Nuka World become her lifeline.

Gage does change her for the better. Lilly finally able to commit to things in her life for once, like her romantic relationship with Gage and job as Overboss.

Fun fact: I actually named Lilly after my evil five pound toy poodle. Lilly is a grumpy old bitch of a dog. She is my whole entire world but she has some screws loose for sure.

So the short answer: Yes! She does hook up with other companions, but only John Hancock and RJ maccready. She also sleeps with Edward Deegan, having a short fling with him. All of these relationships are nothing compared to what she has with Porter Gage, their bond being actual love. Lilly is factionless, choosing to go her own way entirely. She becomes a mob boss before completely ditching that life and disappearing on the irradiated wind before finding Nuka World. Starting over with yet another new life. Lilly is a bit evil from the beginning, but the wasteland does corrupt her further.

Porter Gage series based off of favorite voicelines

I have had this idea for a while….I love Gage and his lines so much, and I know you guys do too! A lot of the lines give me some big ideas that I want to share!! So i'm going to use them as writing prompts in a way; So a story that involves the line of dialouge and uses it as a major point.

I've already begun writing for the lines "If one of these bugs ever takes me down, you tell people I died from trippin' over my gun, fallin' off a cliff, anything! It would be less embarssing," and of course, the favorite, "Your ass looks great in that Vault Suit boss."

I have already done one work like this, which was "Make yourself at home boss."

Are there any lines that you want to see turned into a story? (find some lines here)

[nerdygoth77]

First face to face meeting with Porter Gage

Here's a little tidbit of Lilly and Gage meeting;

Lilly stared at the dirty raider in front of her, finally getting a real look at the man who was asking her to make a huge decision. He was a big man, standing slightly taller than her. He was armorless, standing before her in just a dirty green tank top and leather pants that drew Lilly’s attention like a moth to a flame. Lilly noticed his muscles before she did his eyepatch, her eyes focused on the way his muscular thighs flexed under the tight leather as he shifted his feet. Lilly tried not to linger her attention on his crotch, her eyes drifting from the bulge in his pants up to his stomach and chest. His tank top was tight, showing off his defined stomach and chest. His arms were huge, the toned muscles flexing and bulging as he crossed his arms over his chest. Finally, her eyes locked with his one. She was a bit surprised by his handsome face, his five o'clock shadow, along with smears of dirt and grease, accenting his sharp jawline and high cheekbones.  The one eye she could see was a deep hazel-green, his intelligence shining through. He had a dark bag under his eye, exhaustion lingering behind his tough guy mask. His other eye was hidden under an ugly eyepatch, an old jagged scar peaking out past the edges.

He had clearly lived a typical hard wastelander life, the skin she could see was littered with the mangled lines and splotches of many scars, many of which looked like cigarette burns and bullet holes.  A small scar was faded into the sun-kissed skin of his nose, his nose crooked from what looked like multiple old breaks that were set improperly or not at all. His hair was crudely cut into a short mohawk, the hair uneven and clearly self cut. The corner of his eye crinkled slightly with crows feet, deep frown lines set around his mouth and forehead.  His mouth was thin and twisted in a frown, the large scar on his chin pulling slightly in the expression. He looked like he could potentially ruin her life, but with the way those leather pants fit she didn’t really care. It was a risk she was more than ready to take.

Hi I have come to request to collect some drabbles or headcannons on your fave fallout character reuniting with the main character? It can be your fallout OC with your romance companion or whoever you'd like! tia❤

My first request!! Thank you so much for your ask! :)

I decided to do my Fallout 4 Nuka World Overboss OC, Lilly! Paired with my favorite, Porter Gage. I did a short drabble!

Reunited

Read on AO3 here! https://archiveofourown.org/works/49325812/chapters/147352036

or just read below!

It had been two weeks and three days since Gage had last seen Lilly, and he was more than anxious for her return. He and Lilly had left on a bit of a rough note, all because Gage didn’t want Lilly to go out on her own. 

 She had been preparing for this little trip to the Commonwealth for a while now, explaining carefully that he couldn’t come, it was something that she had to handle alone. He had gotten agitated at being told to stay behind. He and Lilly had hardly been separated since she became overboss about ten months ago. She could handle herself well, but his nerves still spiked at the thought of her out there alone. They had argued about it, Lilly trying to convince Gage by telling him that Dogmeat would keep her safe. Her attempt at calming his nerves only made Gage more irate. Gage knew Dogmeat was a protective and vicious companion, but he wasn’t invincible. 

But she won anyway. Gage was left standing at the gate of Nukaworld, fuming as he watched Lilly ride off into the wasteland on her favorite horse, that dog of hers hot on their heels. Gage’s lips still tingled from her goodbye kiss, the taste of her lipstick sweet on his lips. His heart strained as he watched her, the sun just barely peeking over the Appalchian mountains. Then she was gone, slipping into the darkness of the shadows. Porter heaved a sigh before making his way back to Fizztop.

Now Porter Gage sat inside the old Fizztop Grille restaurant that he and Lilly had turned into a nice home. They had dragged out most of the tables and chairs, only leaving a few alongside the work benches. Their bed was up on a small platform, right next to an armor workbench and power armor station that was holding the Nuka T-51 power armor. It was purely for decoration and for holding Lilly’s magnet collection, Lilly and Gage both not fans of the clunky suit. Power armor always made Gage sweat and feel claustrophobic, and Lilly hated it because her agility in the suit was awful. 

The old restaurant had really become a home, even the mutt had his own corner with a soft fluffy bed and plenty of chew toys. Lilly had decorated the walls with everything from old paintings to animal skulls, a few even human. They had removed all of Colter’s “decorations” and cleaned up the place real nice. 

They had more storage than they knew what to do with, trunks, boxes, and dressers full of items scattered around the room. Most boxes were full of scrap or junk waiting to become scrap. Gage and Lilly went through a lot of scrap, using it to constantly repair their armor and weapons. 

Soft colorful rugs scattered the room. Lilly had learned pretty quickly that the floor got freezing cold in the wintertime, and that the rugs saved them from cold feet on chilly mornings. Gage thought they looked silly and frilly, but he wouldn’t dare complain to his peculiar pre-war love. A massive quilt that Lilly had made herself covered the large bed. They even had comfy pillows. Lilly really enjoyed creature comforts like softness when she could have it, not that Gage was complaining about the soft blankets or running water. He hadn’t lived this well in his whole life, and he had a beautiful woman to share it with. 

The old kitchen had been cleaned up and was a kitchen again, the fridge laying face down in the middle of the floor with the back panel ripped off. Getting the old fridge to work, along with some other appliances was on Gage’s extremely long list of shit to fix. 

Gage sat at one of his work benches, his attention entirely focused on the baseball bat in front of him. He was trying to turn one of Lilly’s many colorful “killing bats” into a spiked rocket bat. Getting the nails in had been the easy part, the rocket mechanism giving Gage a little trouble. 

The radio was playing loudly, redeye rambling about who gives a fuck. Gage just had it on for the noise, the sound and tinkering keeping him busy and from stressing over Lilly. Redeye was loud, but not loud enough for Gage to not hear the patio door open quietly and shut softly. Gage pretended like he didn’t hear a thing, waiting for the footsteps to get closer. He dropped his hands from his tools to under the table, his hand finding one of the half dozen guns that were duct taped to the underside of the table. 

Suddenly a familiar wet nose nudged at his hand, Gage looking down to see a very happy Dogmeat. He let out a sigh of relief and removed his hand from the gun, patting Dogmeat on the head. The mutt was wagging his tail so hard his body wiggled, Lucy giggling from behind Gage at the dog. “Someone missed you.” She cooed, laughing as the dog picked up his front feet repeatedly in excitement, looking like he was doing a little dance. 

Gage rubbed the dog behind his ears before he stood up and turned to look at Lilly. “You made it back!” He spoke, his eyes roving over her fit form to see she looked a little worse for wear. She looked exhausted, her bright pink hair and freckled skin filthy with the dirt and grime of the wasteland. Her dark eye makeup was smeared and running down her face, her red lipstick long gone. The bags under her eyes were large, exhaustion pulling at Lilly’s sore muscles, causing her perfect posture to falter as she slouched her shoulders under the heavy weight of tiredness. The bounty hunter duster and road leathers she wore were a bit tattered, but otherwise she seemed to be in one piece. 

“I told you he’d protect me.” She grinned, approaching Gage with open arms. “Yeah yeah yeah.” Gage grumbled, giving the dog one last pat before pulling Lilly into a tight hug. Her exhausted body relaxed against his warmth, his large chest a great pillow for her head. He rested his chin atop her head, his hands gently rubbing her back. He breathed her in, that sweet smell of her usual perfumes and scents slightly masked by the smell of the wasteland. She reeked like radiation and sweat, that metal smell lingering on her clothes 

They just stood there for a moment, holding one another. All of the stress disappeared from Gage now that she was back in his arms. Sometimes he’d get into his head about her; sometimes he felt that she was way too good for him and that one day she’d get the sense to leave him. But here she was, back in his arms. 

When she looked up, Gage ran his thumb along her bottom lip, feeling the large cut that swiped down her lip to her chin. When she flinched away he moved his hand to cup her face, “What mess did you get yourself into darlin’?” He frowned. Lilly just shrugged one of her shoulders and leaned into his touch, “Nothing Dogmeat and I couldn’t handle.” The weak smile she gave him said otherwise. Gage rolled his eyes at her, his thumb wiping a smear of dirt from her cheek. He could tell Lilly was exhausted and bruised up, and in desperate need of a bath and a good night's sleep. 

Gage pulled her into a soft kiss lingering kiss, pulling away when Lilly tried to take it a step forward. “As much as I’ve missed you baby,”  He drawled, grabbing Lilly’s hand, “I can tell you need a rest.” Lilly let out a sigh but nodded in agreement, “Yeah I do. That and a shower. I’m gross.”

He gave her hand a gentle tug, a smirk on his face. “Yeah you are, you stink.” He faked disgust, Lilly huffing and shoving at his shoulder. Lilly rolled her eyes when the solid wall of muscle didn’t budge, “No worse than you.” He mocked her dramatic eye roll and pulled her towards the bathroom. “Then c’mon.” 

Lilly let out a bemused huff and followed Gage to their bathroom, allowing him to take care of her.
