WIP Whenever

Got tagged by @tiny-banana-time -- many thanks!  Uh, this is less a WIP and more a bit of voice testing, but I did wind up posting it. Never written in this fandom before so more testing is gonna be needed before I land on the cadence I want, but! Hopefully not too bad for a first effort into the Fallout Universe (and idr if you’re familiar with fallout, but hopefully this’ll be a fun read anyway?)

Let’s see! Tagging @theoriginalladya even though she’s already done it and i swear it has nothing to do with wanting more of a certain AU -- no pressure though! And anyone else who wants to share what they’re playing with!  ----

"Alright, I gotta ask."

 He waited until the other man set down his toolkit on the workbench behind him and peered up at him from where he was still kneeling behind his power armor. A tripped mine had torn through the plating, and RJ tried not to dwell too much on how badly it could've gone had Maks not insisted on wearing the hulking thing in the first place. 

 He doubted even someone with Maks's luck would have limped away from that one. 

 A thick eyebrow arched as Maks waited, the hint of a smile curving that irritatingly distracting mouth. Movie-star handsome, as Piper had put it. Classic good looks, or something adjacent to it, certain features too unique or too imperfect to encapsulate the men of Hollywood's heyday. Eyebrows a touch too thick, nose a touch too strong, the fine line of a scar tracing over the corner of his lips, and RJ hated how much he liked to look at the bast--the ass--the…

 There's no helping this one, Duncan.

 Especially because Maks kept wearing that ridiculous outfit.

 "I get why Preston wears the fancy hat and period clothing, but uh… kinda seems like a bit much, don't you think?"

 And Maks tilted his head, eyebrow arching higher and -- yep, definitely smirking now. 

 RJ wasn't sure if he wanted to wipe that smile off his face with caustic remarks or his own mouth. 

 "Maybe I like fancy hats."

 "You can't be serious."

 "You have a bit of fancy hat yourself, you know."

 "Uhh, okay, no, this is a good hat, alright? Not too eye-catching, not trying to make a statement. Simple."

 "My tri-corner hat isn't simple?"

 "It's a tri-corner hat and you're dressed like a godd-- a gosh darn founding father."

 "Nonsense," Maks scoffed. "I don't have a single powdered wig."

 "Maybe you weren't liked enough to get elected to government," RJ shot back, but this only made Maks laugh. 

 Which was a problem, really, because Maks's laughter had an annoying tendency to vibrate through his chest, warm and rich, like something you'd wanna curl up in on a cold night. 

 "I think," Maks went on after a moment. He hefted himself to his feet, brushing off those completely impractical pants and that equally impractical waistcoat. "The answer is actually pretty obvious."

 RJ scowled, folding his arms over his chest.

 "Yeah? Alright, enlighten me, hotshot."

 Maks straightened, adjusting his hat before turning to him. He widened his eyes for effect.

 "I'm a man out of time."

 RJ stared at him. 

 "I hate you."

 "And yet…" His eyes crinkled in the corners when he smiled like that, and RJ tried his best not to notice. "You're still here."

 "Caps'll make you do weird things like that."

 "Uh-huh."

 He clapped RJ on the shoulder as he walked past. RJ fought not to turn around and watch him leave. 

 Certain views weren't going to help his resolve any, and he wasn't about to give Maks the satisfaction of knowing the stupid outfit did, in fact, look good on him.
