I didn’t mention this on my Mr. House post since it felt redundant but Dr. 0 from the Think Tank says,
“And him and his dirty girl-bots. Don’t even get me started on those filthy biological catcher’s mitts.”
Tumblr media
I don’t take Dr. 0’s words about Mr. House sleeping with his Securitrons with a human body that seriously.
This is Dr. 0 someone who hates Mr. House’s guts.
Tumblr media
Who isn’t even aware what Mr. House did to his body before the Great War.
Tumblr media
However while we never saw it in game.
Mr. House scanning other women wouldn’t be a surprise to me since he dated a lot.
Tumblr media
He’d pick the girls for specific reasons (whether it be looks or personality) and in the end they’d all still be products providing him a service.
Satisfying his sexual and emotional needs.
Anyway thinking about how Mr. House’s relationships before the Great War were artificial because why make real connections when you know atomic war will happen within 15 years.
Especially when you know you can’t “save the world” but also have no interest in trying to.
Bonus:
Marilyn was a cut character similar to Jane.
Through her you could’ve unlocked the seduce option for Mr. House. She was cut because of errors in her voice over which couldn’t fix in time.

One of my favorite headcanons I have pre-relationship between my courier and Mr. House is that he schedules a lot of their business meeting during her meal times.
She at first thinks it's because he doesn't value her time but it's actual because he enjoys seeing her indulge in the luxuries he provides.
Tumblr media
He also is vicariously enjoying the food through her. Oddly enough Mr. House can probably still eat.
Tumblr media
Since he goes out of his way to say if I were able to walk around/leave the cryonic chamber I’d eat at the Gourmand every night.
Instead of saying if I were able to eat.
He seems like someone who did a lot fine dining pre Great War. Especially with how impressed he is by the White Glove Society's Ultra-Luxe Casino.
Mr. House: "They've been good to their word. Put together one hell of a resort hotel, too."
Even showing up uninvited.
Tumblr media
So I imagine he's a MAJOR stickler for table manners.
While my courier's table manners aren't awful Mr. House will nitpick and correct her often. To the point it becomes ingrained in her. She catches herself doing it even when away on missions.

I always thought it was cute the Securitrons could make a siren sound and now I can’t stop thinking about Jane, Victor and Yes Man doing it.
Victor doing it while taking your injured body to Doc Mitchell.
When you bring Jane a snow globe her doing it as a little celebratory noise.
There’s so many funny moments you could add it to Yes Man’s dialogue.
Yes Man: “Did I just say “exploiting?” *siren noise* “that’s not a very nice world!”
​I understand the Securitrons in the cutscene do it because they’re in police mode and the others doing it is unrealistic with their AIs but it’s fun to imagine!

I read this interesting post:
https://www.tumblr.com/rocket-69/691648665881886720/its-sixxers-fallout-fallen-knight-let-me?source=share
That discusses how while Victor is a lovable character he's a product designed to lure Courier Six into New Vegas. This post got my brain juices flowing so bad I made Tumblr glitch with how much I tried writing in the tags. So I had to make my own post.
Tumblr media
I find it EXTREMELY interesting how all the AIs Mr. House created while fun and lovable are also products.
Jane being a copy of Mr. House's favorite girl a starlet he dated before the Great War. She's designed to entertain him similarly to how the workers at Gomorrah "entertain" customers.
Jane: "Mr. House has a lot of needs, sugar. I take care of all of them, and a lady doesn't kiss and tell."
There's also an emotional aspect to the services she provides him.
If he wanted her just for sex he wouldn't have specifcally scanned her brain. He could've gotten anyone. While famous Jane wasn't even a star but a starlet. A young actress with aspirations to become a star.
While he might have liked Jane's personality which is why he picked her. Ultimately their relationship was a business transaction.
Raul: "She said they never, um... don't make me spell it out, boss. Anyway, she said all he wanted to do was scan her brain and make her dress up in different outfits."
Mr. House scanned her brain to create an artificial relationship (separate from the real Jane) designed to satisfy his needs post Great War. Mr. House had the technology to save the real Jane but chose not to.
A lot of people also seem misunderstand the reason why Mr. House doesn't have sex with Jane. It's because he physically COULDN'T.
Ignoring cut content. Mr. House was already attached to the machine keeping him alive. He's connected to an Electrode-studded command helmet on the day of the Great War.
It's how Mr. House protected New Vegas:
Tumblr media
Raul: "I remember there were some weird stories about him, especially near the end." NEAR THE END.
Mr. House takes Jane's personality to the EXTREME. Designing her to stoke and inflate his ego by being able to only say positive things about him. Jane is a product designed to provide Mr. House a service all while managing his snow globe collection. She doesn't even respond when the player says goodbye to her.
Then there's Mr. Vegas who was an AI created before the Great War. A charming DJ for Radio New Vegas to play music but also spread the news.
Mr. House also did to the same to the tribes by turning them into The Strip AKA a money making product.
He molds people into exactly what HE wants for his benefit.
The BIGGEST example of this was Benny! However that didn't work because Benny is human. Benny had his own ambitions and desires.
Mr House: "I have to think that he found out about the Platinum Chip and mistakenly convinced himself that he could use it to his own ends."
Mr. House even flat out admits it to the player.
Mr. House: "Benny has led the Chairmen ever since I recruited his tribe seven years ago. Until his recent misbehavior, I'd planned to make him my protege. Maybe if I'd begun grooming him sooner, none of this would've happened..."
Protege meaning a person who is guided and supported by an older and more experienced or influential person. He wanted to GUIDE Benny into a specific role. Which the player can even ask about.
Courier Six: "What use would you have for a protege?"
Mr. House: "To achieve my aims, I require a capable human agent to perform certain . . . tasks."
HE DOES THE SAME WITH COURIER SIX!!!
Testing them to see if they can get to New Vegas on their own.
This awesome post goes into more details about it:
https://www.tumblr.com/maddymoreau/741007168343588864/veronicaroyce-it-always-bothered-me-that-mr?source=share
Mr. House even mentions you being a more-than-suitable replacement for the role he wanted Benny in.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
ALSO during your first meeting with Mr. House this exchange can happen:
Courier: "Why the VIP treatment? I'm just a courier."
Mr. House: "Oh, don't be coy. You've been playing a high-stakes game ever since Victor dug you out of the ground. Don't be afraid to admit it."
DON'T BE AFRAID TO ADMIT IT. HE'S TEACHING YOU!!!! HE'S GUIDING YOU INTO THE ROLE HE WANTS!!!
Mr. House: "You see that you and I are of a different stripe, don't you? We don't have to dream that we're important. We are."
While Mr. House may act like he's above feelings and relationships. HE'S NOT!!!! It's why the player's karma can affect his ending SO MUCH!!!!
Another incredible post discussing it:
https://www.tumblr.com/maddymoreau/740922764666585088/veronicaroyce-something-i-think-a-lot-about-is?source=share
A lot of people think Mr. House is an idiot for picking Benny but people forget Benny's drive. Hell just rewatch the intro cutscene where he shoots Courier Six.
Mr. House being human is also WHY he picks Benny despite Swanks being far more loyal. Swanks is an unimaginative employee.
Tumblr media
MR. HOUSE LIKE'S BENNY'S PERSONALITY. HE NOT STUPID HE KNOWS WHAT BENNY PERSONALITY IS LIKE!!!
Mr. House: "I have a certain tolerance for greed. I expect my business partners to be self-interested - but smarty so."
However he misjudged Benny and even admits it.
Mr. House: "Obviously, I miscalculated his drive for supremacy."
In the Yes Man ending we learn.
Yes Man: "I found some code snippets in one of Mr. House's databanks that will let me, um, reprogram my personality! To be a little more assertive, basically!"
Meaning while small Mr. House has programming to allow characters like Victor and Jane free will. He WON'T use it though because he wants the specific services and relationships they provide him.
HE'S A WEIRDO CONTROL FREAK WHO ACTS LIKE HE'S ABOVE HUMAN EMOTIONS BUT HE'S NOT AND I LOVE IT!!!!
In the ending with high good karma it even says: "Mr. house afforded him/her every luxury at his disposal in the Lucky 38, out of gratitude - and a quiet sense of pride for his choice in lieutenants."
Of course because of his ego (look at the obituary that appears when he dies) but GRATITUDE. Spoiling Courier Six with all the luxuries he can provide doesn't sound like a basic employee and employer relationship he likes to act like what they have is.
Mr. House: "In any case... this is an employer - employee relationship. I've given you an assignment, and the directions are clear."
If you want to take the G.E.C.K script notes into consideration they even says:
Mr. House: ''You know, I've had thousands of employees in my time. Few met my expectations, fewer still surpassed them.'' {You know, I never had much time for a family - if I did, you'd be the daughter/son I wish I'd had. Benny was almost like a son to me, but well...}
Courier Six being loyal to Mr. House means so much more to him then he'd ever want to admit. EVEN AT THE END OF THE GAME WHEN THE PLAYER HAS FINISHED THEIR WORK AT THE SECOND BATTLE OF HOOVER DAM HE AUTOMATICALLY GETS EXCITED DISCUSSING THEIR NEXT PLANS!!!!!

Do you guys ever think about how Dean Domino and Vera Keyes had pictures of each other in their rooms.
Dean hung his picture of her right next to his safe:

While Vera had his on her desks:

Have you heard what Mr. House says if you tell him you're killing him for the Legion? He sounds genuinely distraught, and not just because his plans were foiled, or at least I thought so... actually made me feel a bit guilty
YES AND IT MAKES ME SO SADDD!!!!!!!!
At least during the NCR Route him calling you a whore is funny and hot still AHHHHHHH _(:ì」∠)_!!!!!!!!!
Don't get me wrong Mr. House SUCKSSSS but the fact he strongly believes what he's doing is for the best AWUGHHH!!!! It’s so compelling!!!!!!
Going from this line:
Tumblr media
"Vegas will be a shining jewel in the middle of the desert, an oasis of light, a beacon to show mankind the way to the stars."
To:
"Slavery . . . the future of . . . mankind?"
It WRECKS me!!!!!
Tumblr media
Off topic but I LOVE how FNV uses its visuals!!!
You can learn about Mr. House's desire to go to space without even talking to him. Thanks to the REPCONN Headquarters he bought in 2075.
Tumblr media
Also I understand this tour is Robco propaganda but I still think it's one of the prettiest locations in Fallout New Vegas ‎‧₊˚✩ 🪐✩˚₊‧
Tumblr media
MR. HOUSE'S EGO SHOWING ON THE TOUR!!!!
Tumblr media
"Robco and it's TINY partner REPCONN" 😂😭
