…arcade nsfw alphabet please
Arcade NSFW Alphabet
➼ Word Count » 1.1k ➼ Warnings » Bondage, Semi-Public Sex, MDNI ➼ Genre » Romantic, NSFW
A - Aftercare (what they’re like after sex)
Arcade likes to service others, so when you're both done, he'll help clean you off before wrapping you in his Follower's coat and sitting beside you. This is probably his favorite part of the entire thing. It makes him happy to know he has someone to confide in or to simply be beside. It's comforting, and he wouldn't trade it for anything.
B - Body part (their favorite body part of theirs and also their partner’s)
He loves your hands. He feels himself getting flustered anytime your fingers run along his shoulders or tangle themselves in his hair. When it comes to himself, though, he doesn't really have a favorite part. It's just whatever you seem to like most about him.
C - Cum (anything to do with cum, basically)
He doesn't care where either of you cum. Just talk to him beforehand, and he'll be down to do whatever. Just don't do it on his clothes. He can't think of many situations where that would be a problem, but just in case, he'd love it if you didn't do that.
D - Dirty secret (pretty self-explanatory, a dirty secret of theirs)
He wouldn't mind fucking in public at all. Now, it'd have to be in a considerably safe and non-irradiated area (the followers' camp), but besides that, he wouldn't mind.
E - Experience (how experienced are they? do they know what they’re doing?)
It's been a while since the last guy he's been with, so he knows what to expect but is a bit rusty when it comes down to it.
F - Favorite position (this goes without saying)
I see him being in the bottom/submissive positions for missionary and doggy style a lot. He's fine with whatever, but those are his two go-to's.
G - Goofy (are they more serious in the moment? are they humorous? etc.)
He likes to be snarky and tease you, saying something like, "Are you sure you know what you're doing?" But he's one of the most easily flustered people when you get him in a position like this. It's not hard to keep him quiet.
H - Hair (how well groomed are they? does the carpet match the drapes? etc.)
His hair is short and a lot more gray in color. He keeps himself very well groomed as his physical health is something he deems to be important. Especially considering the fact he's a doctor.
I - Intimacy (how are they during the moment? the romantic aspect)
Arcade only ever gets embarrassed when you plan something romantic for him. He'll still shoot quips your way, but it'll be with a slight stutter. It's not often something this nice happens to him, so he feels awkward whenever you plan something romantic for him.
J - Jack Off (masturbation headcanon)
He doesn't jerk himself off that often. If he's particularly stressed, he might, but there are better, more sanitary ways to let off steam.
K - Kink (one or more of their kinks)
Semi-Public Sex, Bondage, Submission, Overstimulation, Anal (kinda self-explanatory, but I felt like I should add it).
L - Location (favorite places to do the do)
Anywhere with a bed.
M - Motivation (what turns them on, gets them going)
You could help someone out and he'd be turned on. He finds it hot when he can see himself being with someone for the rest of his life, so when he sees you make a kind gesture solely of your own volition, he can't help but flirt with you a bit and see where you'd take it. You're dreadfully interesting to him and, as long as you're being authentic, he'll be a mess of a man.
N - No (something they wouldn’t do, turn offs)
Dirty talk. Bro would rather kill himself than talk dirty to you. The quickest way he gets turned off is when he tries to say something hot. It just makes him cringe. Please don't ask him to do that.
O - Oral (preference in giving or receiving, skill, etc.)
Giving. He likes being able to... help people out. And what better way to do that than this?
P - Pace (are they fast and rough? slow and sensual? etc.)
He prefers a more sensual pace. As smart as he is, he can't help but be a bit sappy at times, and he thinks these parts are just a lot more romantic. Although, you wouldn't have to try hard to convince him to try something more rough.
Q - Quickie (their opinions on quickies, how often, etc.)
He doesn't really have an opinion. Not his favorite, but he wouldn't say no.
R - Risk (are they game to experiment? do they take risks? etc.)
Kinda? He's willing to try out a lot as long as there's no risk of permanent harm. Run it by him, talk it out. He's down for a lot more than some might think.
S - Stamina (how many rounds can they go for? how long do they last?)
He likes being overstimulated, so as many as you think there should be. Tie him down and make him cum as many times as you want. He's fully at your disposal.
T - Toys (do they own toys? do they use them? on a partner or themselves?)
No, he prefers the more natural way. Toys kinda freak him out, and he wouldn't ever trust a sex toy from Freeside. Or Vegas for that matter. Too many health risks that could occur.
U - Unfair (how much they like to tease)
A lot. Arcade loves teasing. Just remember he's a sub. Tug his hair a bit and he'll lose all control.
V - Volume (how loud they are, what sounds they make, etc.)
He's like the middle ground of loud. If you're doing it in public you'll have to put your hand over his mouth, but if you got a room it shouldn't be a problem.
W - Wild card (a random headcanon for the character)
If the two of you talked about it beforehand, he wouldn't mind trying aphrodisiacs with you.
X - X-ray (let’s see what’s going on under those clothes)
He's pretty average, like 5 inches.
Y - Yearning (how high is their sex drive?)
Average. He likes to build up to sex rather than do it every other night. And he's in his mid-30s.
Z -Zzz (how quickly they fall asleep afterwards)
He likes lying beside you and just talking with you before he falls asleep. This kinda ties back to the aftercare headcannon. He just likes being around you in these moments.

Arcade gannon
ARCADE GANNON! MY GOAT!!! ARCADE! OF COURSE!!! Sorry I don't know if the amount of hcs I have made him look like one of my favs he is lol. Please enjoy!
Feels immense guilt for being born in the Enclave, despite barely remembering it. So he tries to help out whenever he can, and it's his main motivation for joining the followers.
Often has nightmares about the Enclave regaining power and returning.
Also has nightmares about his older ties being associated and him being driven out of the Followers, stoned or imprisoned by NCR.
Big Sci-Fi fan, definitely grew up loving those old Jangles the Moon Monkey show re-runs or hearing some radio shows on Sci-Fi. War of the Worlds is his favourite.
Often feels out of place, especially considering his height.
Growing up, he excelled in chemistry and maths. They put him in a special course designed to form Enclave Scientists.
Only recently got transferred to the Mojave. He was previously researching how to make more efficient sanitiser and anti-microbial solutions for surgery from Eucalyptus oil (Yes, Eucalyptus trees grow in Cali).
Now researching how to cross-bred Broc Flowers and Barrel Cacti and grow them more efficiently. He's also studying their chemical make-up to help create more effective stimpaks and healing powder.
Learned quite a lot from Dr Henry. Would often pester him to teach him about medicine. Quite close, consider him an uncle.
Is very open about his sexuality, unless you're one of the remnants. He tends to avoid the discussion of partners.
Has been really vague about it to Daisy and is slowly coming out to the others, a bit worried what Moreno would think.
Moreno literally doesn't care that much.
They all love him regardless, and it works out well. Daisy welcomes all of his boyfriends with open arms. Threatens them in case they break his heart, lol.
Considers Veronica to be a younger sister figure. Also pretty friendly with Cass and Raul.
Very worried about Lily and often corresponds with Dr Henry about her and ways for the Followers and himself can help her. Lily sees him as another adopted Grandchild.
Also corresponds with Dr Henry about Rex.
Has also offered to get help for Cass' Alcoholism and Boone's Grief. Both declined.
Favourite colour is blue! His favourite number is 18.
Has a whole library back at his room in the Boneyard, but eventually decides to permanently stay in the Mojave under an NCR ending.
All other endings, he tries to get the others to go back to the Boneyard with him and Veronica does. Cass gets halfway before decided to move somewhere else. Boone does move to the NCR, and they keep in contact. Lily stays in Jacobstown, but also exchange letters. No clue what happened to Raul.
If the Kings die, he ends up with Rex.

misc portraits and headcanons of my favorite characters. Notes: * All of these headcanons have a little bit of myself in them. * I wrote that Vulpes doesn't understand pronouns because he literally has a hard time with them in english. Pronouns work a bit differently in Latin. * I have given Vulpes heterochromia, like me! Different kind though. Mine is central, his is partial. * I gave everyone flags for the sake of easy understanding for viewers, but in actuality I think identity and symbols for said identity (and all the language around it) would work differently in the wasteland. * Arcade's strict adherence to his own morals and paranoia about it all heavily reminds me of OCD. I don't really like to apply definitive labels to characters because I don't want people to feel excluded or like they can't relate if they don't fall under the same label, so I'm not giving you an exact diagnosis list for everyone, but none of the companions are completely mentally well.

New Vegas companions react to a teenage courier?
Another super late post from me (I'm so sorry lmao) but better late than never! I've already said this but I love reading/writing for Teen!Sole/Courier - my courier oc is actually nineteen during the events on New Vegas so stuff like this helps with developing her too! <33
//
Companions React to Teen!Courier
(Includes: Arcade, Boone, Cass, Lily, Raul and Veronica)
Arcade
Straight off the bat, he's gonna have a lot more patience for a younger courier than he would an adult. He doesn't exactly have fond memories of being a teenager - but then again, who does anymore? - so he can't even begin to imagine what it must be like after what the courier had gone through. Although Arcade often prefers to avoid violence when he can, he's more than willing to resort to it when it comes to protecting the courier. However, this means he's all the more disappointed if the courier sides with the Legion, he understands they're far more impressionable and that only makes him harbour more anger towards the faction, but he'd still expected better from them.
Boone
Instantly goes into dad/big brother mode. Boone doesn't anticipate it happening, but he finds himself being much more protective over the courier than he'd like to be. He'd been so excited to be a father before Carla's death and in a strange way, the courier feels like a second chance. He won't mention it, of course, especially not at first, but he'll show that he cares in little ways like making sure Six has a larger portion of the rations than he does or by protecting them from danger before he even considers himself. Boone doesn't want to overstep, nor does he really feel comfortable talking about it, so he'll never bring up how much he cares, he just hopes the courier knows he'll protect them no matter what happens.
Cass
It doesn't make a complete difference to Cass. Of course, she's even more outraged over what Benny did to Six, finding their attempted murder horrific in general, but even more so when it's apparent the courier isn't even eighteen. While Boone takes on a paternal role, Cass quickly becomes an older sister and terrible influence all rolled into one. She'll offer Six whiskey to try, although she knows chances are they've already drank alcohol before - God knows she'd sampled enough as a teenager. She's always willing to give them advice, granted she knows it's not always the best and most moral advice, but she's doing her best regardless.
Lily
Honestly, not much about Lily's relationship with Six would change, even if they were a teenager. She takes her role as their grandma as seriously as ever, refusing to see any harm come to the courier. With Six being even closer in age to her Jimmy and Becky, it sometimes makes it even harder than it usually would for her to remember she's not actually talking to her grandchildren. She's just grateful that the courier is patient with her, even if she isn't the perfect grandma sometimes.
Raul
It's hard for Raul to not be reminded of Rafaela and Claudia when he first meets the courier - regardless of their gender. Almost similarly to Boone, he sees them as a chance to do better and actually protect someone for once (third times the charm, right?) He manages to play it off with sarcasm and quick wit, but he truly does care for Six and he wants what's best for them. Perhaps he won't always agree with their choices and he makes a point to voice that when it's the case, but there's never a day he won't stand by them. He refuses to lose someone a third time.
Veronica
She's actually really excited to meet the teenaged courier. When with the Brotherhood of Steel, Veronica would love spending time with the squires, constantly being reprimanded for distracting them from their work - sure, Six is a little bit older, but she doesn't mind. But now? She doesn't have to worry about her commanding officers telling her to buzz off, she can spend all the time with them that she wants, if they're willing to put up with her. She's definitely a better influence than Cass, or at least she tries to be, but she knows showing Six how to cheat at poker probably wasn't the best idea. Veronica will also insist that she'll deal with Benny herself, but she knows better than to get in the way of the courier and their revenge.

A small headcannon of mine (since Felix is mute and has to communicate somehow):
• Arcade is he knows asl
• Lily has a passing knowledge of asl but has degraded overtime
• Yes Man downloads what remains on the database on sign language as a whole
• Veronica knows some asl and can understand through context what's being said
• Doc Mitchell knows a little sign, but not a whole lot for effective communication
• Ulysses only learned sign so he can understand the courier if they're mute, deaf, or hard of hearing

Arcade HCs? 👉👈
ooOo arcade, lemmi think.
Legally obligated to make sure Boone hasn't done anything stupid (Boone got his hand stuck in a toaster once and Arcade had to help him get it out.)
Somehow really good buddies with Boone, Don't ask how, they don't even know.
King of facepalms and irritated sighs, maybe the occasional muttered "oh dear god."
Would say "what" when you ask him a question but then respond as you repeat it.
Probably forgets to drink water because he's too busy being a nerd and doing nerd shit.
He would collect pokemon cards, Ik this is random but he gives off those vibes.

Fallout HCs about video games cuz I'm absolutely batshit insane about these characters
(Fo3, NV and 4 but it's only characters I am crazy normal about)
Fo3 (Butch, Charon and RJ)
Butch
I'm being so honest with you, I think he'd LOVE rhythm games
He's a big music guy to me!!!
Rhythm games player,, he also would play the fuck out of multiplayer fps games
but Lone would have to make him stop because he gets really mad when he loses
He's fucking horrible at puzzle games also, he makes Lone solve puzzles for him but totally not because he needs help
He just uh... Thinks Lone is too dumb to figure it out... Yeah...
Charon
Okay I know I picked the characters but I'm so clueless for him
Maybe fps but idk
Actually this guy likes puzzle games
He watches Butch fail horribly and silently judges him
Puzzle games and like... Games with specific tasks you need to repeat
I'm thinking like Potion Craft and Sticky Business
bro would love cleaning games I think
PowerWash Sim and Viscera Cleanup Detail are his beloveds
RJ
This kid would play multiplayer fps games and absolutely kick ass too
He's the mean kid on mic telling you how shit you were...
He gets mad when he loses and quits
But not before saying that he's never playing that game again
... And then he's playing the same game the next day
He's such a little hater I think he'd say all kids games are for babies
He would LOVE to play them though :(
Would sooner kiss a Deathclaw than play a horror game though...
He'd act like he's not scared until he physically couldn't hide it anymore
FNV (Veronica, Arcade, Benny, Boone, Raul and Vulpes)
Veronica
Fps 100%
She's the one beating Butch all the time and she's having a blast doing it
Maybe also sorting games?
Ooh exploration games even
I barely traveled with Veronica but I feel like she would get really deep into the lore of whatever game she's playing
Unpacking fan I feel
I think she'd like ARGs too
She'd play slime rancher and throw tars into the sea as soon as she sees them
Arcade
He feels like a strategy game player
CIV player
Probably also likes cleaning/sorting games
I don't think he'd play video games very often... Sort of just a thing he does when there is NOTHING else to do
Probably would play Niche
Maybe Spore
I honestly have no clue with him beyond that
Benny
I'd like to start this by saying that he's comically bad at every game he plays
Other than gambling ones
He plays strategy games and loses every single time
He could not win a game to save his own life
Only games he's okay at are like... Ones it's hard to lose,,
And house flipper... He feels like a house flipper guy if he had to play
He also plays the Sims,, he loves that game so much
Boone
Really challenging myself here
I think he'd be good at fps but not really like them very much
Idk why but he feels like an rdr2 player to me a little
He also plays Plants Vs. Zombies because he's great
Idk he absolutely doesn't play games ever and when he does it's like,, card games
Boone is not the gamer of the group
Raul
Fuck oh God why did I put him on this list
Also a house flipper kind of guy but unlike Benny he's actually good at it
When he plays games it's to relax !!
He's playing fucking Stardew Valley and having a nice time
He plays Golf With Your Friends with the Courier...
Kinda feels like a Terraria player but he has actually no clue what he's doing,,
Plays Minecraft but only to build a house then turn the game off
If anyone tries to teach him a game he pulls the old man card
He will not play a game if he doesn't want too...
He's just "too old to figure it out"
Vulpes
Like Arcade he also plays CIV
But he's annoying about it somehow
Strategy and puzzle game player
No matter the game he acts like he's better than you for playing it somehow
Plays Terraria like Raul but he knows what he's doing and won't stop being a bitch about it
He acts like whoever he's playing with is stupid for not understanding whatever game they're playing
Fo4 (Nick, Deacon, Danse, Curie, Preston and MacCready again)
Nick
He's just like Raul tbh
When he plays a game it's to relax or with friends
He also plays Golf With Your Friends... Probably with Ellie and Sole
I think he'd like playing Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes...
Jackbox games too
He likes having fun with friends okay? :( let peepaw play a damn game
Probably would also like PowerWash Sim
Maybe even Slime Rancher
Deacon
I'm struggling more with what games he WOULDN'T play
He'd play multiplayer horror games with everyone and NOT do what he's supposed to
Not because he's uh... Scared or anything...
He's in the Railroad, obviously he likes Detroit: Become Human
Idk why but he feels like he would love OneShot
BattleBlock Theater kind of guy 100%
Like I said, I have no idea what he wouldn't play...
I think he'd play anything with his friends though
Kind of guy to find the absolute worst quality game to play and get it for everyone so they can all suffer together
Danse
Strategy games.
Or games with a very direct path
I think he'd be overwhelmed by open world games
Too much to do and not enough direction on where to go first
Survival games I think he'd like too
Hates horror games,, he would never admit it but he always gets jumpy
I honestly don't think he'd play anything other than strategy games without being pushed but shh.... If he were a gamer
Curie
Cleaning games or games that focus on science
HUGE Niche fan
She has no clue how to play a video game but she knows science!!
CIV player but she doesn't attack anyone unless they attack first... She just wants to make her cities and make everyone in them happy. That's literally it
Preston
I think he's in the same boat as Nick but he can't pull the old man card
He's just not a big fan of video games
But as long as he's playing with friends I think he'd have a good time
Probably would hate horror games too...
They're fun until it gets actually scary and then he doesn't want to play anymore
Honestly, I think he might like Don't Starve
Idk why... He'd play Wilson I think
Or Wendy
MacCready again
look he's older now
He still plays multiplayer fps games but he doesn't get as mad at them
He doesn't say as mean things anymore... And when he says it he says it to himself
I think Butch got him into rhythm games as a kid but he isn't good at them
100% would play video games with his kid.
He'd play like,, bugsnax when Duncan is older and lose his mind
I'm being so honest with you I think he's not good at any games that aren't fps...
EXCEPT. Stardew Valley. He would never in a million years admit it but he'd loved that fucking game.

Thinking intensely about the fact that the word "arcadia" is shorthand for paradise or pastoral bliss in Greek and Latin. Thinking intensely about Israel being the promised land, the paradise of the Hebrew people in the Torah. Thinking intensely about Arcade Israel Gannon's idealism, his optimism in the face of a bleak world, and wondering if the parents that gave him these names dreamed of paradise as well

How would Fallout New Vegas companions react if Courier was dating Rotface?
Fallout New Vegas companions react to Courier dating Rotface
GN!Courier
Tumblr media
Craig Boone
He truly does not care, the couriers business is their own.
Doesn't pry into their personal life, if they'd like to talk about it Boone will listen, it's what he's good at.
Boone doesn't understand why the courier would be attracted to a ghoul, though once again that's their business. Plus it's not like he's the one kissing that face.
Will be a bit protective, although he'd never admit it, the courier is his friend and he doesn't like seeing friends get hurt.
Tumblr media
Arcade Gannon
He finds it odd, but he's seen so much in the wasteland it doesn't exactly phase him much.
He will ask if the courier is dating Rotface just for information and intel. He knows a lot about the ghouls reputation.
Warns them of the dangers no matter the answer and in general is a bit of a mother hen.
Arcade will never say it out loud but he likes the gossip he hears from Rotface.
Tumblr media
Raul Tejada
Okay, boss.
He's the last person that would judge the courier for dating a ghoul, considering his own condition.
Raul acts like a protective grandpa, telling the courier to be careful. Especially knowing how Rotface likes to talk.
Doesn't want the courier getting hurt by being in the middle of something caused by their lover.
He's also kind of glad that someone would be attracted to a ghoul for more than just sex. Gives him hope that if he wanted a relationship one day, he'd be able to find someone.
Tumblr media
Veronica Santangelo
She doesn't judge, or at least tries not to.
Being raised in the Brotherhood has its downsides, and one of those is being sheltered.
Veronica tells the courier that of Rotface hurts them, she punch him for them. She's only half joking.
She loves the gossip and "girl talk" though. Asking the courier how dates went, helping them dress up for dates, and even planning dates for them.
She says it's like a fairytale, tells the courier about prewar stories like Beauty and the Beast and the Frog Prince.
Tumblr media
Sharon of Rose "Cass" Cassidy
Really? Okay, whatever floats your boat.
She'd never date a ghoul, but that's just her, and the courier is not her.
Cass doesn't think it's her business, and doesn't pry. Though she gives unsolicited dating advice when she's drunk.
She's just happy that the courier is happy, and if Rotface hurts the courier in any way, she'll pop a cap in his ass.
Tumblr media
Lily Bowen
Oh that's lovely sweetheart, I hope you're happy!
Very supportive grandma, always tells the courier to have fun on dates and to be safe.
However, if the courier gets hurt in any way, Rotface will have Leo to deal with.
Tumblr media
Rex
*sniff sniff*
Thinks Rotface smells funny, has probably seen him before.
He doesn't mind as long as he gets pets and treats from him.
Tumblr media
ED-E
*happy beeping*
Is just happy to be here.

Arcade With A S/O Who Has 1 Intelligence
➼ Word Count » 0.4k ➼ Warnings » None
He hates that he's fallen in love with you, he really does. There are moments when he's not sure how you managed to make it as far as you did in life.
He does still try his best to explain things in a way that'll help you understand what's going on, though, even if it goes right over your head.
He does find some of it endearing, albeit, in a slightly frustrating way. He does appreciate your careless sense of adventure and excitement whenever the two of you wander off into the Mojave. All of that blind optimism rubs off on him a bit and he's really grateful for it.
He loves how you view the world so simply. Sometimes it even helps him remember or think about something he hadn't considered before—like a second point of view.
A lot of the time you'll be sitting in one of the Followers' tents, feet swaying back and forth, as Arcade works on something else.
Despite it all, he does try to teach you about the different factions and political agendas happening in the current times, even if it fails miserably.
One of his favorite things about you is how easily you seem to forgive people and how quick you are to assume the best. It’s something he really admires,
"Don't touch that, it'll kill you."
The two of you together are a ridiculous duo, almost exact polar opposites of each other that you could probably do a show in The Tops and people would love it.
As much as you stress him out, he does care about you and makes sure you're hanging around people who have your best interest at heart and making sure no one's taking advantage of how easily influenced you can be.
Sometimes he'll send you down to the School of Impersonations because The King's all love having you around and it gives him peace of mind knowing that you aren't going around getting yourself into trouble.
Arcade loves it when you ramble about things, even if it’s the dumbest thing he’s ever heard. In a world where you almost need to be smart, you come off as so unique to him.
He thinks you’re really funny, even if it’s unintentional. He can’t help but smile whenever you’re around.
This relationship might be rocky, but as long as you both are working toward improving for one another, it'll succeed.

Vulpes Inculta Headcanons
He is fluent in latin
He's probably the smartest person in the legion and spends most of his free time training or reading
He'd never admit it but he has a book of Catullus poems hidden under his bed
He practically hoards books, especially anything written in latin
Unpopular opinion but I imagine Vulpes being a virgin. Many of the legion men may lay with the slaves but it is generally frowned upon. It is viewed as them being weak and dependent on women if they can't control themselves. Vulpes holds himself of a higher standard, also he refuses to 'dirty' himself with the slaves and anyone unworthy. He will wait for the right woman even though he's not actively looking.
He writes Latin love poems to you
When his tribe was being conquered by the Legion, his mother had tried to slit his throat to spare him from being forced into their ranks.
He grew up near the great salt lakes of Utah. Most of his childhood was spent swimming.
He has whipping scars on his back from Legion punishments
Joshua Graham had trained him when he was first recruited into the Legion at 9 years old. Joshua became somewhat of a father figure to him
To test Vulpes' loyalty to Caesar he was commanded to light Joshua Graham on fire before he was pushed into the Grand Canyon. He was hesitant, but ultimately obeyed and earned himself a higher rank.
Vulpes had a brother that was killed when his tribe was conquered
As a hobby, he carves woods into little statues and figurines, usually portraying someone from ancient Rome and mythology
Although he seems cold and cruel, he isn't a horrible person. At least not as bad as he seems.
He's never beat any slaves and usually scolds legionaries that do, telling them they're weak and cowards to attack someone that's defenseless and so far below them
As the head Frumentarii he has learned to fit in with the culture of New Vegas. While the other legionaries may be confused by technology and not understand many things outside of the Legion he has exceptional knowledge on it.

Cursed FNV Headcanons in no Particular Order
Legate Lanius' mask functions on cartoon logic. The eye holes move and emote based on what he's doing or feeling.
Courier Six has one foot outside of the fourth wall at all times. They can see the game UI (popups, markers, etc.), but haven't put two and two together why. At first they think the world is just Like That™, but once it's made clear that they're the only one who can see these things, they assume it's a side effect of the whole being shot in the head thing. Maybe even an effect of Old World Blues.
Ulysses has super strength. His 10 strength stat makes him as strong as, if not stronger than, most super mutants. He can grab Six by the leg and swing them around like a whirly tube with ease. If he were to slap Six as hard as he could, they'd skid across the ground leaving a ravine behind them. He can easily (and has easily) impaled them with Old Glory. None of this stops them from messing with him.
Arcade rarely drinks before traveling with Six. After a while, he finds himself slipping alcohol into his morning coffee more and more often. As much as Arcade cares for Six, traveling with them is incredibly stressful and worrying. Some of this is relieved when Ulysses joins the crew. He's intelligent, a good listener, and tends to help ground Arcade when it all starts to feel like too much. Plus, it's nice knowing you're not the only one who thinks that eyebot is bad news. They quickly become confidants.
Caesar and Joshua are aggressively divorced; interpret this how you will.
Caesar can't cook for shit. This is more in-line with a modern day AU, but he is actively banned from the kitchen. You could ask the man to boil water and it would result in a house fire. He touts himself as the "grill master" at the cookout only to burn everything and have to eat the spare meat the others pack because this happens every time.

How do you think your top three New Vegas companions (or all if you want to) react to a courier admitting that they have chronic migraines from their head injury that chems can’t dull? (Arcade ready with a whole lecture on chem addiction and courier’s like ‘I just want my brain to stop screaming at me… Both kinds of literally :( )
I FEEL LIKE MY TOP 3 ARE SO BORING but they're also safe choices i think?? rex is definitely top 3 but i don't think he'd be a particularly interesting option, so i hope you don't mind arcade, boone and cass <3

New Vegas Companions React to a Courier with Chronic Migraines (Contains: Arcade Gannon, Boone and Cass)
Arcade Gannon We already know he's gonna be giving the courier a lecture on the effects of chem addiction, that goes without saying. He's been in Freeside long enough to see how addiction has affected others around him and he's actually grown to like the courier, so there's no way he's going to watch the same thing happen to them. He knows he can't stop the migraines altogether, but he's willing to be patient with the courier when they do come around and make sure his friend gets the best care possible. He'll likely suggest that the courier lets the Followers try and treat them, since that's probably the best medical care they could get, but if they don't want to go with that option, he won't push.
Craig Boone While his own issues with head pain are nothing compared to the courier's, Boone's suffered from his fair share of stress migraines, with everything that's happened in the past few years. He can sympathise better than the courier may expect and surprisingly enough, he's actually very understanding if Six needs more time to rest up or can't do something on a day where their migraines are worse than usual. He knows the pain and the idea of having to deal with that consistently is a terrifying thought to him, so he can't begin to imagine how the courier managed to keep it together for so long. Boon knows his presence alone can't stop the migraines, but he hopes that it's at least a comfort for the courier.
Cass Any headaches she's suffered from have always been cured by a bottle of whiskey to knock her out for the night, which is the first thing she suggests to Six. Although, when they explain that it's not just your average headache and not even chems are helping anymore, she realises it might take more than alcohol to ease the courier's pain. She finds it quit frustrating at first, when she wants to get back on the road and the courier can hardly lift their head off the ground, but she'd never voice her irritation - it's not like Six can help it. Over time, she becomes more understanding and used to the idea that some days, it's easier on the courier to take a break and try to rest up, she doesn't have the best bedside manner, but she tries to do what she can and it's the thought that counts.
