#// AU where the enclave pulls riley out of v111

@enclaveborn​ // walking dead meme // still accepting “ we could use a soldier like you. ” (Jared at Riley)

So you keep telling me, is on the tip of Riley’s tongue. Not that he means Jared, specifically, since they just met, but... He’s heard the sentiment, if not those exact words, over and over again ever since he was brought to Raven Rock. It makes him just as uncomfortable now as it did the first time they said it.

“I... uh. Thanks.” Riley rubs the back of his neck, self-conscious. He knows he has Pre-War training, but... He never really felt like he was that great of a soldier. And he knows it’ll only be a matter of time before they find out for themselves, so maybe he should say something...

... but then they might not help him find Shaun, once this... new war is over. All he can hope to do is train more, make himself better, make himself useful, before he blows it.

“I hope I really can be of help.”
