Edits have been finished. Most of them were simple date and time changes but I did make a major improvement to Chapter 5's ending. I never liked how I rushed the ending of that chapter so I decided to fix it. Do check it out and tell me what you think.

DennisPanting

I've been thinking about the dates I've been using in my stories, and I've come to realize that I have made a few mistakes. You see when I first started writing the story, I erroneously assumed that the distances between the major points of interest were vastly larger than in the game, hence the reason the story starts in January. However, I did a bit of research thanks to Google Maps, and I realized that while the distances in the game were different from real life, I vastly overestimated How long it would take to get around on foot. So I've decided I should change the date to somewhere later on in the year, to more accurately reflect the game's timeline. But I would like your opinions first. Should I change the dates slightly or not? I probably should seeing as the Second Batter for Hoover Dam is meant to occur in November, and I don't want to drag out the story.

OK, I have a little bit of a problem. So as anyone who s played Fallot: New Vegas knows in the game you can find the Chinese Army: Special Ops Training Manual that is used to level up the sneak skill. The problem is the books are in Chinese and I'm having trouble figuring out how Six would even learn Chinese and I doubt the Pre-War government in the Fallout Universe would be allowing its Citizens to learn Chinese. So does anyone have any idea on how Six could have picked up the language? Or should I just replace them with the US Covert Operation Manual found in Fallout 4? I was planning on adding features from Fallout 4 to my story, but I would like your opinions first before I do anything.

@Jaxies4577 At this point in the story, He has no implants yet. May put that Idea it the back of my head for later.

@DennisPanting i would say three things cause how is the intelligence of courier six cause maybe they picked it up across the wasteland America is a big place maybe someone knows it and what about implants for example the intelligence implant may help with learning the language ^^

@DennisPanting maybe Six finds some sort of device that translates it into English?

New teaser. Hopefully the wholl thing will be out by Halloween.
          “You’re right. There is one other thing I’m scared of. Radscorpions. Fuckers creep the hell out of me. I'm not going outside while they're still crawling around,” Edwards explained shivering in fear.
          “I don’t blame you. Radscorpions freak me out a bit as well. Don’t worry, We’ll make sure there aren’t any more Radscorpions in the area,” Six offered.
          “Well, I’m not going anywhere until they are all gone,” Edward said clearly terrified. Six stuck his head outside the door before immediately popping it back inside.
          “Well, that would be a very wise move right now as we have 3 oversized radioactive arachnids parked right outside the door,” Six announced. Edward promptly fainted on the spot from sheer terror.
          “Well, that was smart,” Loona remarked sarcastically.
          “Yeah, in hindsight I probably shouldn’t have said anything,” Six said sheepishly.
          “We don’t have time to worry about that. How are even going to get out of here?” Loona asked.
          “Simple. We’ll go out the side door, loop around the back, and hit them with a few 40mm grenades,” Six explained.
          “That actually is a solid plan,” Loona said before giving Six a cheeky smirk, “And here I was thinking your main attack strategy was charge in guns blazing and hoping for the best.”
          “Oh, ha-ha, very funny,” Six responded sarcastically with a smirk of his own,” Just because I like to shoot till I’m out of bullets, doesn’t mean I lack strategy. Now, let’s go squash some oversized scorpions,” He added before exiting the side door Loona following close behind.
          
          Quick question, should write the next part from the radscorpion's POW or not?

TheLambdaRebel107

@DennisPanting  nah, do I from either Six's or Loona's POV.  Cause I'm not sure how a radscorpion POV would work.

You know today is the anniversary of Fallout New Vegas, right? 

DennisPanting

@TheLambdaRebel107 Yes but due to my tendency to get distracted easily, its slow going.

@DennisPanting  well now you do, happy birthday to FNV.
            
            
            Also, just out of curiosity has there been any more progress with the next chapter?

Yet another chapter teaser.
          
          “I want you to put down the troopers that... changed. Turned into ghouls. Those boys aren't themselves anymore. They're in pain, and you don't let good men suffer like that. Those troopers deserve a clean death.” Astor explained.
          “Eh, I’ve done stupider things for caps so why the hell not? Sure thing, Astor,” Six answered.
          Thank you. Could you bring me their dog tags? Some of the troopers should still be wearing them. I'll give you some caps for each one you bring back to me. There's an old rifle in it for you if you can bring me at least 10. Oh and take these radiation supplies. You'll need them.” Astor said before handing Six some Rad-X and Radaway.
          “Thanks, Astor See you when I have those dog tags,” Six said before he and Loona headed off to Seachlight.
          “Six are you sure about this?” Loona asked, “I know you got radiation supplies, but this still seems very dangerous.”
          “Eh, Can’t be any more dangerous than killing Vulpes and pissing off the legion,” Six remarked, “Besides, I’ve dealt with ferals before. I doubt this will be any different.
          “Famous last words,” Loona said as they headed into Camp Searchlight.
          “We’ll see. Now let's hunt ourselves some ghouls.”

Teaser for the next chapter:
          
          “Wait, the Great War? Do you mean the war that destroyed the entire world? That Great War?” Six asked in shock.
          “The same one,” Loona answered.
          “But, if you were alive during the Great War, that would make you…”
          “Over 200 years old?” Loona asked, “ Well, it's 225 to be more precise. 226 this year. The only reason I survived for so long was because of those stupid Vaults, but, I don’t really want to talk about it. Come to think of it, I don’t really want to talk much about my past at all.”

@TheLambdaRebel107 I doubt there will be any actual lemons. Sex will most certainly be implied but that will probably be it.
Répondre

TheLambdaRebel107

@DennisPanting I'll keep that in mind, also are you gonna be involving lemons in your story? Or will it be like a fade to black type of situation where it's implied they did it and leave it at that? The reason I asked is because we already have plenty of yiff stories out there and lemons don't really add much to the plot.
            
            Just curious is all.

DennisPanting

@TheLambdaRebel107 Also just putting it out there, if you or anyone else has a potential chapter idea, let me know and I may include it. You will be credited, naturally. You don't need to do so, but I do like to hear what my readers have to say.

Just had a run-in with a snake a few hours ago. I was wandering around my grandma's farm with my mom, aunt, and younger cousin when it came out of some weeds. We both gave each other a jump scare and we both reacted accordingly. the snake lashed out and I hightailed it out of there like my life depended on it. Luckily I was wearing boots when It happened or else I wouldn't be writing this. The only I have to worry about is a sore left foot from where its head smacked my food hard. It gives me a good idea for my NV story though, so stay tuned for that.

DennisPanting

@TheLambdaRebel107 Don't worry, Six was wearing boots too, so he didn't get any venom. He did end up hurting his foot on a rock though.

TheLambdaRebel107

@DennisPanting oh, that's scary.
            
            Hope that whatever idea it gave you won't involve any amputations.
