#Butch Deloria

[everydayyoulovemeless]

Assuming you'd be willing to: How does Butch react/act when realizing he might be crushing on the Male!Lone Wanderer? Either while they're both still in the vault or after the Lone Wanderer returns from the Wastes

Butch's Reaction to Crushing on a M!Lone

➼ Word Count » 0.7k ➼ Warnings » Butch is mean ➼ Genre » Romantic

It pisses him off when he first starts to notice how he feels for you. I imagine he represses his romantic feelings for men like crazy and realizing that he’s slowly developing a crush on you, of all people, makes him want to punch a hole in the wall.

He’ll be even crueler to you now; spitting on you, jumping you in the Vault hallways, and threatening to carve his initials into your skin with his pocket knife. He hopes that it’ll force his desires away. Maybe if you hate him enough he’ll finally just let it go, but, to his dismay, it never happens.

It becomes obvious very quickly that something deeper within him is causing him to be like this. The other Tunnel Snakes will also start noticing how much he seems to like picking on you compared to anyone else in the Vault.

The day you leave is the day he shatters. Of course, you’re the one who has to leave. He’ll pretend to be happy about finally being rid of you, but deep down he’s worried you won’t make it. You’re smaller than him, weaker than him, and never had been one to fight back... how would you ever survive on the surface?

He can’t help the way his eyes light up when he spots you entering the Muddy Rudder. He doesn’t even bother hiding the smile that slowly tugs at his lips as he waves you over to the bar, praying you won't cringe at the sight of him and leave.

He’ll act as if you guys had been friends for years. He’ll toss his arm loosely around your shoulders and order you a drink, asking about your time in the wasteland. However, his friendly demeanor will shift once he sees how awkward you act around him.

He doesn’t bring up how he used to treat you - he doesn’t know if he can - but he’ll, at the very least, try to make an effort toward earning your trust.

He follows you whether you want him to or not. He may still be a tad naive about what exists in the wasteland, but he’s not naive enough to recognize the dangers. The last thing he wants is for you to die, especially if it happens before he can confess to you.

He’s gentler toward you now. Those few months after you’d set off to find your dad had killed him, and he wants to make an active effort to show how much he’s missed you and how much he wants to be around you.

He’ll slowly start to do things that boyfriends traditionally do. He’ll offer to carry some of your heavier items, open doors for you, and even pay for meals when you both find a settlement to eat out at.

He also becomes extremely protective over you. You can see the hatred and jealousy boiling in his eyes whenever he spots someone touching you or standing too close. It eats at him even more knowing he can’t say anything because you two aren’t officially together.

Some of his old habits still linger. Occasionally, he’ll grab your face to make you look at him or, stick his foot out and trip you while you walk. It’s just in his nature.

Although, he does try to make it up by offering to clean up your hair for you. Free of charge. Either because he’s noticed it’s been growing out or it’s gotten dirty during the days you’ve spent traveling. Besides, he likes being able to take care of you like this.

It kills him that he can’t seem to find it within himself to just tell you about how he’s feeling, or even just apologize for how he treated you while you both were in the Vault.

It’ll become more and more obvious that he’s interested in you, but he refuses to be the one to say it. You’ll have to make the first move in the relationship because his pride won’t let him be in love with another man. Especially, if there’s a chance he may be rejected.

Welcome to the wasteland, 19-year-old child! I guess you’ll be needing a partner in this dangerous wilderness, huh? Pick one:

Sketchy robot

Not technically a slave

Literal actual sexual predator

no this one is really a slave, yeah she’s being held against her will

I think the vault dwellers of vault 101 should have been more fearful of the lone wanderer, especially upon their return to the vault. Particularly Butch. Like, here's this kid Butch has bullied and pushed around for the grand majority of both of their lives, said bullied child grows up and leaves the vault in a violent spray, only to come back later, and definitely, definitely not be the same person as when they exited. Butch is arrogant and cocky, he would never admit fear, but I do think it bothers him to see lone in this way, because it is scary. They are *not* the same person, the wasteland has changed them.

#fallout #fallout 3 #fo3 #idk #butch deloria #i think about lone being unsettling to butch a LOT #heres this kid you grew up with #fooled around with and acted like a jackass with #and now here they are again #but changed. possibly for the worse. a haunted kind of look in their face

Because of these glitches I’ve decided Butch and Fawkes have some unimaginable beef

i think it's about time we had a sexyman poll for the fallout side of tumblr. above is a list of all the fallout sexymen i could think of; if you think i missed anyone, i probably did want to add them, but polls only have ten answer slots. i may make a part 2 if there are enough characters left over, then pit the winners against each other in a final poll.

cast your vote, and may the best sexyman win.

MacCready's "Tunnel Snakes Rule!" line feels like it's dripping in irony, but him being an unironic Butch Deloria stan would be the funniest shit ever. He was, like, twelve. Either MacCready verbally tore Butch to shreds at the front gate of Little Lamplight (and probably made him cry, let's be real) or began to hero worship him.

#fallout #fallout 3 #fallout 4 #robert joseph maccready #butch deloria #butch either got bullied so hard by a 12-year-olds he cried or the only people who think he's cool are 12-year-olds #either way hilarious
