Do you have any age headcanons for the Khans (Papa, Regis, Melissa, Diane, Jack, Jerry, Chance, Jessup, McMurphy, Manny)? I am starved of Great Khan content istg 😞
I do actually! SOME anyway... they've moved around a little since the start of some of my stories but as it stands UH
Papa Khan: Papa I tend to pit at 60, making him 20 when the Chosen One attacked Vault 15 during fo2. He's far from the oldest Khan. Additional headcanon, I think he joined the New Khans when he was 14 years old which is a tragedy but he doesn't see it that way
Regis: He's one that I've changed recently, he's 59, making him 19 during fo2. He teases Papa about being the younger man. Also additional hc, I think he was 17 when he joined the New Khans, so his and Papa's attachment to them from the beginning was very different.
Melissa: I don't have a set age for Melissa, but I tend to think of her as one of the younger, a generation or so behind Jessup and co. Maybe like 25 or something?
Diane and Jack: Again, nothing really set in stone for these two but I do think they're the same age. Maybe a little younger than Melissa? They just seem a little more immature than her.
Chance: Chance I actually think is older than a lot of people expect, like one of the first Great Khans born when the Great Khans were actually a thing yknow? I personally make him 39 but that's just for my story reasons and I understand if people don't agree
Manny Vargas and Jessup: Both Manny and Jessup are the same age as Sun, who is 30 during the events of New Vegas. For Manny it puts him close enough in age to Craig (27) but also old enough to be running around with the Khans when they arrived in Vegas 14 years ago (making him 16 when he, Jessup and Sun met). Jessup is the same age as Sun purely for the "breastmilk brothers" joke but they were born pretty close to eachother and have been going on playdates since before they could talk
McMurphy: McMurphy is a littttle older than Jessup and Sun, I haven't fully decided how much older tho. Like 3 years older max, making him 33. I just need him to be in a slightly different age category as Jessup and Sun, but close enough so that they still get grouped up together to go on their first raids and stuff, and he just acts like an annoyed older brother in all roads
BONUS Oscar Velasco: I make Oscar 71 years old, 10+ years older than Papa and Regis and 31 when Vault 15 was attacked. I make him this age because he comes across to me as someone whos lived a whole life before becoming a Khan raider, which makes me think he got roped into it after something happened to him, rather than getting caught up as a teenager like Papa and Regis. He is a tragedy because he had a nice secure life, got forced into being a raider, then built back a family and a good life, then lost them and became a petty raider again. He makes me so sooo sad
I finally stopped waiting for my sister to watch with me and binged Ms. Marvel all in one go.
And I told my best friend I cried bc of the level of representation I wasn’t expecting from the em see u, but I think that’s another reason I’ve been holding out—like I was?? Too afraid to see if it would let me down?
But boy oh boy. I want to give every cast member and staff on Ms. Marvel a big kiss on their foreheads.
uuuu. havent seen conscience of the king in a long time but i remember the episode being very good overall. but kirk hitting on a 19 year old is creepy as fuck right. like. thats not just me, right.
