thoughts on Arcade Gannon!

Arcade is so silly to me but in a serious way.

His whole character centers around the guilt of his father and past and what it would mean to follow in his footsteps and to not. I hate that virtually all his endings are lack luster and sort of sad. He and Veronica get such bittersweet ending slides but all of his stem from the Wasteland not letting him find peace vs Veronica's who struggles to find peace within herself.

He's so smarmy and despite him insisting he's boring he's the most pleasantly (this is a dig at Cass) vocal companion next to Raul for me. His quest is a bitch to start early but it's fun to tote him around. I think it's fun to play around in his idle commentary because I don't think he gets to use his dry whit with the followers a lot (too easy to reveal something about himself and it probably falls flat with how direct and non-tactful the followers seem to be socially).

More people should lean into the "Highly capable in combat but panicky" side of him versus the avoidant type he tries to perpetuate. I mean he starts shooting first of any of my companions' behaviors and his melee weapon is terrifying for a guy who doesn't like to get up close in combat. I feel like he's got a lot of anger bubbling underneath his surface but is scared to let any of it out because he feels that he'd let it become misguided. Then how is he any different than the Enclave who were led by so much misguided hate they were willing to kill all mutated life (minorly mutated humans included).

#i wish he wasn't so sad to me like why are you so miserable #like i know why but it seems so unfair considerign he was like a fucking baby and had no choice in what he was born into #as he got out the moment he could #ask #anon #arcade gannon #arcade fnv #fallout #fallout new vegas #fonv

STOLEN from an idea the lovely @g-eetings had with the v3 kids all getting together and healing on jabberwock after v3

#eggs can art #danganronpa #shuichi saihara #kaede akamatsu #kokichi ouma #rantaro amami #nagito komaeda #chiaki nanami #maki harukawa #Their all there for the summer (no nwp this time this is the Real jabberwock) #their goal is to reconnect with their friends and patch together friendships strained by V3 (or work on new friendships born inside there) #Nanami and Komaeda (resident unemployed duo tm) are there to chaperone the kiddos alongside Usami :) #They basically have all the islands to themselves and their job is to Bond and Heal tm #the kids who live there are obviously staying at there homes and some of the kiddos are staying at the hotel while others are bunking with #friends (Miu is staying with Kiibo and Kaz; Shuichi is staying with Kokichi and Hajime; Tenko and Angie are staying with Himiko and Sondam #we also have Mahiru slowly adopting Maki because this has GROWN ON ME SO SO BAD) #also let is be known that the factory on the 5th island has been replaced with a silly lil arcade (w/ a roller rink) #nanami komaeda and usami make the kiddos breakfast everyday at the restaurant because sometimes after a killing game one of the most #comforting parts of your day is heading to breakfast at 7:30 am and knowing you dont have to worry because all your friends WILL be there #(except that one time Kaito caught a cold but it lasted like a day dw he's fine he was just a lil sick mixed w/ jetlag)

Marek and Chidi are the type of besties that have never been seen interacting in a public setting (Chidi gets nervous) but out of nowhere someone is like “hm wonder where they went” and text them if they’re free Friday for a hangout. Chidi texts back in the group chat “sorry. Can’t. Girl’s night” then sends a picture of her n Marek in the middle of fighting for their fucking lives in the Backrooms or something then show up Saturday completely fine

i'm still not over that anon yesterday like it's sent me into a long tangent of mentally writing essays about veronica but the crux of it is that, while i love finding her a dress and it's a cute objective, you would think that was her only damn trait based off how fans talk about her and that's fucking tragic

#like we get fucking thinkpieces (mostly super wrong but still) about arcade's feelings about being born in the enclave despite #the enclave being dead and him being a whole ass baby when they were alive. but nothing for veronica's active struggle with the brotherhood

I can't decide if Manny is more of an Aries or a Pisces. I initially thought Scorpio, but I wanted him to have his birthday the day after Arcade's for comedy reasons, and Arcade is a Pisces for canon characterisation Piscean supremacy reasons. Late Pisces has a lot in common with Scorpio, but I already picked this for Arcade for this reason, and I don't want them to have the same horoscope... though I obviously do, or why would I have even considered making them have nearly the same birthday?

I'm not wedded to appropriate horoscopes. I know they're not real! But if you want your characters to have a birthday, you have to pick one - and I am wedded to Pisces Arcade, so...

The strongest (relevant) character traits for Manny are loyal and caring. Loyal is very Aries; caring doesn't have to be sensitive, which would send it towards Pisces. I don't really perceive Manny as a leader, which would be a totally Aries trait. I perceive him as easygoing, but you can spin that as gregarious Aries or mutable Pisces, so I'm still stuck!

#I'm a Cancer Boone devotee if that helps. Yes I've spent all evening looking at horoscope compatibility for fictional men #fallout new vegas #manny vargas #arcade gannon #arcade/manny #fnv #manny #arcade #another facet is that pisces/aries means manny is born on the 21st. is manny very blackjack-ish? does he have echoes of vault 21? haha

[stressedjester]

Why did I really see someone talking about how Arcade "supports" the Enclave? Tell me you dont actually interact with Arcade and just skimmed his wiki w/out telling me I guess 🤨

#his parents were enclave but like. you dont choose what youre born into #and he actively chooses to do better like??? thats the whole reason hes a doctor. and feels like a burden #hes trying to right wrongs he personally never committed and even calls the enclave facists #grrr i hate people who hate arcade #not bc they hate him but bc they ALWAYS mischaracterize him sm to do it #hes a good guy #meffy rambles #fallout

[geaibleu89]

Just remembered tomorrow is Cadmus's birthday/2nd anniversary of his creation so I guess I'll have to do something for that 👀

#personal #misc #he didn't really have a birthday until Arcade asked about it #he had the vague feeling he was born in august as it was the first month he thought of #so they just did that #he was also off by two weeks #but in the grand scheme of things it doesn't matter 🤷‍♂️

was listening to blazblue II themes again recently, really relieved to see i’m not the only one to dislike them

ngl i didnt know basically anyone Likes them before all this. i think all my friends i had talked abt it with before agreed they're lackluster comparatively. like idk the only genuine improvement really is sword of doom II BUT that's only cause the tonal shift reflects mu's drastic character development when noel accepts her as part of herself

#cawing #at age 6 i was born without a face #blazblueposting #s funny actually i wish there was a toggle that would let you choose Is by default #and also that there was one on pc like there apparently is on console where the astral music can be the cf arcade theme instead #i reaaaaaaaally love the cf arcade theme i dont care for the console one like at All i never really watch openings for games #except ao iconoclast sometimes #and cf's is so noisy it just makes me >:( #also REJOICE apparently while it isnt on the sound complete box kotoko DID upload ao iconoclast on spotify herself. love that!

#arcade the most difficult man in the world to get a satisfactory ending talk about high stakes gambling #Arcade: ‘I can’t decide if I should help them fight and make a stand - or be at Freeside as a Doctor to tend to the wounded.’ #Minka immediately: ‘oh stay in Freeside.’ - Arcade: ‘really? I am surprised to hear you say that. when we talked about my Enclave family #while recruiting them you put such importance on loyalty to your past’ - Minka covering his mouth: ‘Yes but that’s just my personality don’t #let it get to you.’ - Arcade (muffled): ‘What??’ - Minka: ‘I mean! -That’s their history. yours is with the Followers. You were born in #Nevarro but that’s not who you’ve been.’ - Arcade: ‘O-Oh. Oh…Kay? alright then.’ #Minka internally: if you show up with enclave armor helping enclave people you’re going to become targeted by everyone on the planet with #all the fury sent towards Jackie Chan in evry Jackie Chan movie and I just can’t watch that happen #r’s fo new vegas run #fallout new vegas
