Loving the implication that Rust needs glasses tbh, especially when he's described as a crack shot. Even funnier that there's a good chance he needs the exact same (or at least very similar) prescription as Mr. Shrewd. Like. What are the fucking chances

Part 5 Trolls Headcanons/ Theories/ Thoughts/ Ideas
Part1 Part2 Part3 Part4 Part6 Part7 Part8 Part9 Part10
BroZone - All of the brothers share habits and mannerisms without even realising. E.g. tapping their chin when they're thinking hard, cracking knuckles when they're about to really get into a project, tapping toes when anxious.
Bruce - just starts being a Dad to everyone without realizing it e.g. cuts food into smaller bites, starts randomly folding people's clothes, licking his finger and wiping food off faces, always having snacks and bandaids in his hair.
Bruce - sleeps wearing a hair bonnet and continues his extensive skincare routine into adulthood.
Bruce - grew a full beard once. Then he had babies. They became obsessed with pulling his beard. No more beard.
Bruce - his kids have buried him in the sand more times than he cares to admit.
Clay - has no fuss, no fun breakfast. Plain toast or fibre cereal.
Clay - itching to hook Pop Village up with electricity.
Clay - was definitely the problem child. Being the middle child in a house full of teenage boys, coupled with the constant threat of Bergens with a sprinkling of John Dory as an older brother results in an angry little Troll boy.
Clay - his hardcore fans were known as Claydies.
John Dory - does not own pyjamas, falls asleep in what he wore that day.
John Dory - has a midlife crisis when all the Trollings in Pop village thought he was Branch's dad.
John Dory - has had several concussions and plenty of broken bones. Got very good at applying first aid to himself.
John Dory - makes his own Moonshine
Floyd - plans to get more body mods in the future.
Floyd - when asked about his past he describes it as 'colourful'. People are yet to find out what he means by this.
Floyd - kept two copies of his own album. He was going to give the other to Grandma Rosiepuff for her collection.
Floyd - when performing solo he does 10 push ups and drinks tea before going on stage. (Apparently Troye Sivan does this and I could see Floyd doing it too 😁)
Viva - she reeeaaalllyyy wants to braid all of Bruce's hair. And Brandy's. And their kids. And oh look how much hair Vacationers have!
Viva - is worried that Clay doesn't need her around anymore.
Viva - wants to have children. Lots of them!
Branch - he is very, VERY aware that by marrying Poppy one day he would become King. In secret he plans. And plans. And plans. Mr. Survivalist Troll handles this new fear the way he usually does; with over-preparedness!
Tiny Diamond - the best wingman! E.g. He's hanging out with JD and starts playing up the baby image to lure in the ladies. "I wuv you Uncle John. You're my best friend!" And the ladies are like "Aww!" Tiny whispers "You're welcome"

[clears throat]
If you’ve recently watched one or more of Legundo’s 100 Days videos, you might have some questions – questions like what’s with all the eyes, who the heck is Decem, what’s an Alteran, how do I get involved in the ARG, why is there chess happening, can I get off Legundo’s wild ride yet, et cetera. This post seeks to answer most of those questions in as straightforward a manner as possible (can’t help with the last one, though – you’re stuck here now!), while also sticking as close as possible to only canon information in order for people to form their own theories. Basically, consider it a brief lore primer for everything 100 Days Multiverse!
But first, a few disclaimers:
This is gonna be a long post. It's going under a readmore. If readmores don't work for you I'm sorry.
This is copied from a WIP document of ours that attempts to record pretty much everything going on in the series, which necessarily means it will at some point become outdated. (Time check: this post was made on 10/14/2023. There are still at least 2 puzzles that haven't been solved yet.) If anything significant comes up I'll try to add it to the summary and therefore that document, but there isn't anything yet.
There will be a lot of “might”, “possibly”, “may or may not have”, “somewhat implied to”, and other various caveats throughout this post. We don’t have a lot of information explicitly stated to be canon at the moment, and while a lot of things seem like sure bets, there’s no telling how unreliable these narrators might be. We don’t like claiming things are canon unless we’re 100% sure that’s the truth, so there’s a lot of weasel words in this summary. You’ll have to forgive us for this one – we prefer to be precise over definitive whenever possible. (And we apologize for not having cited sources here -- if something's incorrect, please call us on it!)
Finally: there is a more official lore document! It contains more details on pretty much everything here, focuses more on puzzle-solving, and also contains a great theorycrafting section -- you can read that here (and thank you to Lucid for creating it!)
Okay. Enough preamble. Let's get into the thick of it.
Legundo has been traveling the multiverse for a while, hopping from modded world to modded world from where he left his S2 Hardcore world behind. He seems to have at least some amount of partial amnesia, as he starts to remember things about his past over time, but to begin with he doesn’t remember (or at least doesn’t seem to remember) where he came from.
Legundo is also not alone – he’s being followed. Strange monoliths appear in certain worlds, made of blackstone/gilded blackstone when “dormant” and obsidian/crying obsidian when “active”. He speaks to these at first as though they can help him, but gradually becomes more and more suspicious of them, and eventually comes to realize they are harbingers of a group of entities/entity called Decem.
Decem has a history with Legundo that unravels throughout the course of the series. They have several associated motifs in addition to the monoliths/crying obsidian – most notably among them are eyes (especially Dimensional Doors) and usage of chess terminology/general references to chess. They also have a custom musical leitmotif -- current link to it here. (You'll usually be able to hear this one or something similar playing around when he stumbles across a monolith, I'm pretty sure.)
Despite “Decem” meaning “ten”, there are actually nine entities in the group, called Aspects. Each Aspect is associated with a different color and has a different title:
the Warrior, red
the Seer, orange
the Historian, yellow
the Merchant, green
the Senator, cyan
the Philosopher, purple
the Noble, pink
the Scientist, grey
the Wizard, black
Members of Decem are prone to infighting and general disagreements on how to solve their problems, especially the problem of Legundo; apparently, at some point Legundo was a member of the group himself, called the Architect and by process of elimination associated with the color blue. Decem seem to want Legundo back, but also don’t seem to fully agree on what method of doing this will be best. Legundo is also not particularly happy about this, referring to his cycle of modded worldhopping as a sort of prison, but he doesn’t seem to remember much (if any) of his past as the Architect.
When the world download for Hardcore S2 was released, viewers were made aware of a new faction, called the Alterans, who appear to be in direct conflict with Decem. While Decem claim that the Alterans are trying to “hide the truth” from us, the Alterans imply that they view their conflict with Decem as a desperate bid for survival (though they do also refer to it as a game of chess). At some point, they did something “ridiculous” as of yet unclear; they also apparently hosted the amnesiac Legundo at some point. Apparently, they were largely against telling him anything about where he came from, although they did “leave him his name” despite it being supposedly risky. It’s unclear if they are the cause of Legundo’s amnesia and/or his leaving Decem, but they certainly don’t want him to remember anything more than he already has. (As of Undercover, it seems extremely likely they are at the very least the cause of the Architect’s fall.)
Decem has a tendency to speak directly to viewers of 100 Days Multiverse videos, especially when Legundo dies or when other glitches occur. When this happens, they tend to leave links to hidden videos/audio clips and/or puzzles that lead to these things. As of right now, they appear to be offering the viewers who have solved their puzzles some sort of job, and may also be showing up on the viewer SMP during its fifth season (the chronology of this is very unclear – see Undercover). It’s unclear what this position within Decem entails, although given their chess motif it’s probably not an unreasonable assumption to say that they are recruiting new pawns.

So I tried out Fallout: Frost
And I got to level 70.
Tumblr media
I finally quit because the game was taking a literal hour to load save files. Fallout 4 takes forever to load saves anyhow, but you can get around it with the quick save/quick load, and it isn't nearly as bad, but some combination of my graphics card, Frost and Mod Organizer 2 (which is very clunky compared to Vortex) made it just drag.
I don't have a lot of screencaps, so forgive their random nature.
The game is punishing, and that's part of the point. Early in there's some excitement about how hard the survival mechanics are, but the mod philosophy is solid anti-fun, and after awhile, that just grows old.
Set six years after the war, the game jettisons as much of the wilder stuff as it can manage. Super Mutants and wilder mutated monsters aren't lore-friendly at that stage, so its mostly animals, people, and ghouls, who are constantly bolstered by the radioactive air and thus follow zombie-headshot rules.
Tumblr media
Where the anti-fun aspect falls into place is the mod is obsessed with keeping you from getting any of the coolest gear because "it has to be there" for the main game story, despite it being super easy to do stuff that would throw the main game off kilter.
So most major locations are blocked off internally.
I see it for things like the power armor suit near Sanctuary, which is frozen solid in a clever solution to the problem, but I can't dig into ArcJet to get the Rock-It launcher? Seriously?
It gets extra obnoxious with the Nuka-World section, because huge chunks are blocked off, and both exclusive power armors are non-available. The entire marketplace in Nuka-Town is gone, just inoperable doors.
And the mod relies far too much on journal entries to tell what story it is. The journal entries come in basically two flavors: 1) tales of sorrow and death that are so common that you quickly get bored of them and 2) ramblings by now mad cultists, of which there are many. The main barrier to forward advancement is familiar places being blocked off with locked doors, the keys of which are at random locations you just have to stumble across.
You can't just go to Parsons' Asylum and find a way in. No, none of the many Maldenman guards outside have the key to the door. Nor is it at the end of the Malden subway line where I stomped the mutant thing they worshiped into the ground. It's apparently at the end of the "military storyline", a thing that (to be fair) I did not bother with because dealing with the conversational options with the few NPCs who will talk is a confounding mess of non-sequitor responses, because half the characters use randomly clipped together dialog from the main game and none of it is translated well.
It's not without its charms. For the first forty levels or so you're likely to enjoy it if you're really into hardcore survival experiences, and while most of the coolest gear was rendered nonexistent, a few things, like the syringer, were majorly improved. The boat fast-travel mechanic was neat but crafting fuel was stupidly inefficient.
I strongly recommend new players get the syringer-centered perk that replaced VANS the moment you can. Syringes are the only ammo with no weight, and for most of the game you'll want to keep a pack of venom and bleed-out syringes. One shot from either will take down a human or smaller sized living enemy (ghouls included) and the venom syringes are guaranteed kills on Deathclaws and Bears if you can keep out of reach long enough for them to succumb.
Don't really have much else to say. Just a little ramble.

heyyy buddy. uh so. is there a reason I reblogged that post about how easy it is to take stuff?
ok well I think obviously there’s a reason I just don’t know what it is. if u don’t mind spilling, please do tell?
I won't say too much about it, given that the situation appears to be dying down as people realize that it's utter nonsense.
The quick summary is a group known for making false allegations to harass content creators (previously targeted BoomerNA and a woman he was seeing, claimed the woman was underage when she was actually 19/20, hacked her account and leaked her nudes as 'proof') created the supposed allegation that Dream had created a minecraft sex mod and then used to to "groom minors" when he was 18.
Now, the thread's already being deleted, either by twitter taking it down for harassment or the author realizing how much they fucked up, but while some people took it to right away, most people realized that the thread was utter nonsense. Like legit, at one point the tweet author was claiming like a screenshot showed proof that Dream "had a relationship with a minor"? And it was, in fact, a screenshot (with no attached validity) of him asking someone if they could record a 15 second clip of them in minecraft saying happy birthday, because he was making a birthday video for his former girlfriend and apparently his girlfriend was friends with them. Utterly baffling stuff. There wasn't even a fake screenshot of him talking to a minor in an inappropriate way. They just forgot it I guess???
Overall the thread was very scattered and the tweets were barely connected to one another or to the actual screenshots shown. It honest to god read like something an AI generated. One minute it's like "okay, so this is Dream's discord ID" and then "And also did you know that Dream follows/followed one person who worked on a hacked minecraft client" with no context as to why that matters. Nothing's actually connected to anything else nor offers any proof of anything.
The funny part of all of it is that the thread was so poorly put together that even hardcore antis couldn't get on board.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
[text in alt id]
So yeah, looks like nobody's really taking them seriously which is good. Kinda hard to since the whole thing is so poorly put together. I wouldn't worry about it too much, other then the ongoing trend of queer people/content creators facing fake grooming allegations which is worth taking note of.

been looking through BG3 mods while i wait for it to download and i have 3 things to note
a lot of mods are changes to the power level and progression that reveal that, despite how prevalent the idea of the "hardcore gamer who loves hard games" is, many players are in fact adverse to too much friction to their gameplay to the point where you have to question if some players simply can't admit that they hate what the game fundamentally is (ex. lots of mods that do stuff like remove carry weight limits entirely, remove the party limit, give you significant power boosts by making spells better across the board, giving you a feat every level, or giving access to even more overpowered items etc.)
there are many mods created to make women sexier, which isn't surprising, but a lot of them do so in such a way that makes it apparent that the human form itself disgusts them. like one of the mods i found removes wrinkles from women entirely, specifically highlighting that it does so even from expressions that warrant it (ex. anger and disgust). there is a type of person who can't handle their women being anything other than perfect porcelain dolls
i have yet to find a mod that gives Karlach a fat cock and i am disappointed in the modding community

Apparently somebody reported my Tumblr blog account to get me shadow-banned. 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
*facepalm*
Because of that person starting argument on my blog, losing argument & cannot accept logical criticism... because of my own personal opinion in my own blog hidden under “Read More”.  Wow... how classy. 
As classy as junior high school kid.. reporting to school principal because of trouble that person cause from the start.
WARNING: THIS IS PERSONAL WRITING ON MY OWN BLOG. 
If you are easily offended person for someone’s diary/personal blog, please get out and block my account.
That person started the argument first after all.... although I wrote warning: 
Do not send ignorant comment. Will be deleted and your account will be blocked.
 Yet that person misunderstood my word which is supposedly EXAMPLE. 
“[that person name] is b****ing on my blog. F***ed off. What do you feel if somebody calling you insulting word, you must be insulted, right?”
As actual insult. 
Tumblr media
No, I didn’t intend to insult that person, at all. That is example!
After I left Tumblr for one month due to real life then logged in again, what a surprise. My comments on comment section are removed, messages are gone, cannot reply comment at all. Obvious enough somebody reported my comments as “Spam” or “Offensive” due to “Controversial Post” argument on personal post that Sims community mistaken me a girl. 
Ahahaha no. That person started it first. You started the argument, you should have responsibility of your own comment, but proceed to reporting my comment because you lose argument and cannot accept the criticism, probably you used fake accounts and asked other people to mass-report my account. That is very cowardice, you know?  
Then you started saying that “Men playing the Sims is rare, probably”, No offense, that is kind of insulting, ignorant, and sexist.  You must be never play real hardcore games on Steam, never visit ModTheSims discussion forum, never visit any Sims forum other than Tumblr? You will see how many masculine username playing The Sims. See your own mod folder, how many masculine male name being the modder? Nraas, Ahmad/Bella3lek4/Dramatic-Gamer, Simrods, SimsMatthew, BlooM, Buhudain, TummyZa, M.M.A.A., gamefreak130, Quackgames, Consort, Buzzler, Darkcloudwalker, nikel23, mikey, CyberBob78, Deaderpool (MC Command Center), TURBODRIVER, Lazy Duchess (confessed he is a man and open to any pronouns) 
You see how many modding tool plug in programs are created by men? TSRW (The Sims Workshop for The Sims Resource) creators are men. Milkshape Plug in is Weshowe, obviously a man.  I know many famous dudes on ModTheSIms forum, like AGuyCalledPi, Wojtek, and there are many more but I cannot mention due to privacy and too many.
Imagine the reverse if a man saying, “Women playing GTA, basketball, football, being developer, architect, engineer [insert male-dominated activities & profession] is rare”. I bet I got called as sexist & misogynist man hating woman. Or probably if I send comments such as “Hug” “Sexy Babe”“Pretty Girl” “Kiss” “❤❤❤❤” to female blog accounts I will get my account banned for being pervert. What a double standard. 
Do I hate women? No. I dislike ignorant and rude people in general, no matter what gender. That case is a specific girl/woman, insulted me “Bitching” and “Fucked off” I had reported to Tumblr staff several months ago, because I was kindly reminder her to mention my username because she reposting my Mod without mentioning my username. 
Tumblr media
There are ignorant and rude comments I got from (unemployed low class) dude and teenage boyzzzzz as well on Tumblr. In 2018, there’s a dude mistaken “I will find you and I will kill you” meme under my Term of Use as death treat.
Tumblr media
 Aahahaha, is that dude never watch Hollywood movies? Don’t know movie Taken? Don’t know meme, never played video games? Why are you minding other people’s writing very much, focusing on negativity instead of giving me support that my CC got monetized (I was the victim)? You must be sad jobless unemployed dude, don’t you think?  
Tumblr media
I explained on Private Message that my writing “I will find you and kill you” is a humor. But that dude misunderstood, then proceed to accuse me making death threat, lecturing me I am the bully, and didn’t listen to my explanation that “CC thief will monetize no matter what T.O.U. says” at all. He was accusing my explanation as attacking him. 
???  
There’s no way educated Asian person like me making death threat to people, what kind of baseless accusation is that? Death threat is only said by low class uneducated people. There are people making ignorant and stupid comments, I just blocked them. 
This is as proof there are men on Sims community on Tumblr.  Now that I criticized man as well, I show my proof here that I do not hate targeting specific gender. 
Furthermore, I’m CC creator who had created a lot of CC. How many? 100+ including mods. But it’s kind of ironic that people only focusing on “Controversial” and “Mistaken as negative” as 1% part. The rest of 99% are positive. I usually give compliment, click love, reblog other people’s CC and content. And have given donation to somebody’s mother whose in hospital. 
sims3hasstoppedworking has left the community, so it’s safe to reveal the Private Message. I donated because I was being generous, not because Frankie’s CC or getting attention that I was donated. 
Tumblr media
Is that how to repay kindness of CC creator, who had created free of charge CC & Mods, to accuse with harassment and report to get our account being banned? 
Enough with this kind of childishness, alright? Seems like I need to left Tumblr to get some fresh air and I probably back with new CC and mods. If only I will be back. 
Sorry for leaving so sudden after I had promised new CC.  I’m very busy due to real life.
Before I forgot, thank you Tumblr @staff​ for recovering my blog.

Goldfield Trading Post 1/22/23
First off, I'll say that I like all of the band members of Citizen Snips individually. But from my vantage point, they have a seemingly talented jazz keys player stuck providing mostly just simple bass lines on the low end, a good heavy hitting rock drummer stuck slamming indie beats, a rhythm guitarist stuck with repetitive electric guitar riffs, and a decent indie lead guitarist/vocalist trying to keep it cohesively indie-sounding. There were definitely times where things seemed to almost come to one collective sound, but mostly they seemed like each member would be better off trying again with another band. As always, I'd love to eat my words and see them have success in the future; there's quite a lot of potential talent here.
As Anita Velveeta's set went along, I found myself asking more and more questions. If she's trying to rap or at least speak poetry over synth, why is there so much modulation on her voice? Why are the genres changing so much, from hardcore synth hip hop to soulful indie rock to screamo to melancholic country to midwest emo? But about halfway through her set, Anita had a moment of real vulnerability with the crowd, admitting to still learning to love her unmodified voice. And y'know, using a voice modulator to combat dysphoria is hardly the worst reason an artist has ever had to use the technology, though I believe her natural voice works great already, even with the frequent genre switches. I may have more questions than answers about Anita Velveeta, but I don't think that's necessarily a bad thing. It's possible that she sticks to one or two genres, fully embraces her voice, and flourishes in a more traditional musical path. It is also equally possible that at my ripe old age of 24, this type of act is the future and I'm going to be left behind, but I don't mind smiling and waving as pioneering artists blaze a new trail, successful or not.
Early Eyes is one of the more traditional "rock" groups I've seen in a while, though I'd say they have more energy and more bite than most straight up rock bands. Their smooth jazz influences are subtle but apparent, and the vocals often harken back to the 2000s post-grunge, pre-emo, pop-punk era, in a mixture that works better than upon first glance. Going back to their energy, their love for and dedication to the music is just apparent through the sheer determination and joy on their faces. And in regards to instrumentation, the guitar, bass, and drums are able to sound either chunky and bold, but also ethereal and beautiful, able to sync up and change at will. While they also had a sampling pad and vocal mods, they utilized them more effectively than the average indie band, utilizing them more as a tool than a full instrument, more a spice than a meal. I don't know how much more I can say about this group; they put on a good show, maybe the best I've seen to a group of 50 people. They made all 50 bob and dance for basically all of their set, even in a tiny, backwoods venue like Goldfield Trading Post. And for that, they have my gratitude for a great night out.

HELP that ANONS idol group lmaooooo i have more things to add in if i may:
-the member uses codenames to refer to each other whenever needed
-they all use one vtuber model and they offer no intros, so only hardcore fans knows the telltales of who's currently streaming based on how they talk and vague stuff like that. even then they're sometimes completely off the mark
-they use voice changers or tts so literally they're unidentifiable via voice either
-the topic they talk about varies from snail facts, praises about a certain... person, who apparently brought them together, idols, art, games, etc.
-teyvat production has tried to reach out to them (because some members seem to like certain idols under their management) for a collab, but ANONS' management keep rejecting the offer
also ESTH- i mean- kaeya's pd, kindly report to the ceo's office at once please and thank you
- ✾
And I'M the manager slash CEO /j. Watch yourself Alhaitham–
I'd probably binge the crap out of these. I am OBSESSED with the idea that they only use one model and there's like 22 different people using said model duajisoaoa.
Heizou's probably the only watcher who's spot on when guessing who's who and subtly teases his producer that he knows what's up. Kazuha who has one favorite whose quotes he puts in his scrapbook sometimes. Xiao who's in denial but was apparently the first person that bought their merch and have been keeping the thank you letter in his closet. And Venti being the one who won't stfu begging for a collab that's never gonna happen.
Zhongli still thinks it's one person and barely watches anything. (Diluc who doesn't watch it at all cause he's always busy). Ayato and Childe LOVES gifting subs. Thoma had to pay for Ayato's expenses cause he forgot to set up an online wallet. Kaeya probably sends comments that can lowkey get him banned and he's always on thin ice, the mods find him funny af. Itto being the weirdo who spams ANON reaction images in the ADDICKTZ group chat in the middle of a brainstorming session. And then there's Dainsleif who's hoping that whatever Venti's planning won't work cause he accidentally found out who's one of the anons and he'd rather not work with snai–
Albedo's probably down for a collab. He thinks having a Vtuber model would be interesting and "less work to maintain fan-idol relationships." Gorou, his sweet apprentice, probably crashed Albedo's computer when they tried to set it up lol
Oh, and Aether and Lumine knows who everyone is but keeps it a secret because they pity the ANONS' mental state.
"This is their only stress relief, huh?"

Hey Assassins Musical Fandom. I've been really busy because of school, and instead of studying for finals or doing my assignments honestly, I just replayed a bit of Fallout New Vegas but this time I'm playing as everyone's favourite anarchist presidential assassin Leon Czolgosz.
Ok, I actually tried this before but wasn't sure about the roleplaying aspect (main problem was because the companions stole all my kills and I didn't have to fight which made it too easy).
Inspired by this comment from 'Can you beat Fallout New Vegas as Abraham Lincoln'.
Tumblr media
Some basic rules:
1. Assassinate President Kimball. Obviously.
2. Revolvers only. I can only use the .357, .44, hunting revolver, Ranger Sequoia, the 5.56mm pistol and their unique variants. I'm not doing the DLCs. (Can you imagine doing Lonesome Road with a revolver?) Historically he used a .32 but I don't have Fallout 3 and I don't know how to use mods.
3. Yes man ending with best possible outcome. It's the closest to an anarchistic society you can get.
4. Help the people of the wasteland. How else will the ideal anarchistic society be created if we don't voluntarily help each other? That means doing most of the side quests and unmarked quests.
Unfortunately for a lot of good endings to happen and to get good results for quests you do have to assist the NCR aka the pretty expansionist government which isn't very in line with anarchist principles- but it's ultimately for the good of the people. And most of the NCR soldiers (aka the ones that do the most work) are fairly reasonable.
5. No companions but I will get the best endings for them. They will be only equipped when necessary.
6. Hardcore mode on Hard difficulty because Leon had a tough life.
SPECIAL Stats
You get 40 points out of 70.
Strength-7. Yes he had weak arms (Thanks Ted for the info) but he did do manual labour.
Perception-6. He shot McKinley.
Endurance-6. He was sick with an unknown disease that made him cough blood but I don't know how to download mods.
Charisma-1. Before you say charisma is a dump stat in this game, but he was very awkward to the point that other anarchists thought he was a spy. This is pretty much the only accurate stat.
Intelligence-6. He did go to school for a while, and wireworking was considered a skilled labour.
Agility-7. Again, he shot McKinley.
Luck-7. His life was tough but still he shot McKinley.
Tagged skills: (Increase skill level by 15 points)
Guns (How many times do I have to repeat he shot McKinley)
Sneak (He made it to the head of the line without being asked to show his hands)
Repair (He repaired machinery on his father's farm)
Traits
Fast shot (Guess why?)
Let's begin.
Guy gets shot in the head twice and miraculously lives. For some reason (brain damage most likely) he believes he is a presidential assassin who died 350+ years ago. And he just happens to look like the man.

I tried but the game was made eleven years ago. Apparently he had auburn hair but some said he was blond. And he had very nice blue eyes and people kept mentioning that he was really hot. No comment on that. He still looks depressed.
Before heading out, we exchange our DLC gear for everything in Doc Mitchell's house because it would be too easy. Leon meets a nice woman and her dog who teaches him how to shoot as part of the tutorial. Unfortunately he can only use revolvers so he may have stolen the .357 revolver behind the counter before realizing he could just buy one at the store. It's no big deal. He helps Sunny fight some geckos, rescues a settler, gets tricked by a guy to save his non-existent girlfriend (he kills the guy in self defence) and helps the town out some more. Before defending the town against some escaped convicts (chain gangs are horrible and the NCR seems authoritarian, but that's no excuse to kill common folks. And the people of Goodsprings are very welcoming and they saved his life.), he decides to explore the area, getting more stuff to sell (it's actually really easy to get rich in this game), some nice leather armour and a hat, more ammo, and leveling up where I pick Rapid Reload as a perk. When you only have six rounds in your chamber, there's going to be a lot of reloading. And revolvers take longer.
That's it for now. Someday I'll continue this (like all my other fanfics).

Livejournal was cool. It was pretty easy to find and interact with people.
However, there was a great purge a while back. It was a bit like the tumble porn purge - accounts with art were banned for “porn” even if it was basic figure drawing or pictures of gays kissing, meanwhile actual hardcore straight porn was still getting through
So most the people I know just left.
That's the thing, I know it was but for some reason not for me rip 😭 I poked around but was unable to find like... anything substantial on there, let alone the communities that I knew existed lol. I was probably going about it wrong but it just seemed like an empty wasteland to me. Like I set up my little blog, then what was I supposed to do?
Yeah afaik lj and ff.net had kind of a more... moralistic stance on fan content than we're used to now. I remember the ff.net mods would crack down pretty hard on random stuff back in the day and get very personally involved. Also the 'slash' shipping wars were HUGE apparently though I was not involved. This was before sjw tumblr changed the world, and it was more acceptable to just be outright homophobic on the internet lol
Honestly before tumblr I spent most of my time on random forums, at the time the invisionfree-type boards were popular. I remember being on a spuffy one (I want to say it was called Elysian Fields) and various Harry Potter ones. I even made invisionfree boards idk what they were about anymore though. I think I had some that were just me and 3 friends lol it was totally free and pretty easy to get the hang of basic html for them. god this is so long ago I must have been like 13-14
