Did some portrait studies/sketches with the companions from Fallout 4, some of these were drawn a while ago when I was still in school
Deacon: bitch
MacCready: blocked
Deacon: wait unblock me i need to tell you something
MacCready: unblocked
Deacon: bitch
MacCready: Lets each tell a secret about ourselves
Deacon: okay
MacCready: I... hate you
MacCready: I never knew you could do that with Mutfruit…
Me: Me neither…
Rip Robert Joseph MacCready, you would have loved Watermelon flavored toothpaste
Would literally be the only way he’d brush his teeth I can just tell
Rip Mayor Maccready, you would have loved fidget spinners
Specifically this one
“My fidget spinner is the coolest fucking one here in Little Lamplight. check it out” tries to spin it on one finger and it falls.
“You tell fucking anyone about this and I’ll chop your god damn balls off you fucker!”
It looks like a took a sneaky photo and he caught me just before the click of the camera.
He looks so annoyed.
I gave him the atom cats jacket though it’s okay.
What he’d become
drew some of my fave fallout characters cause I’ve been playing FO4 recently Butch is the only one from fo3 but I love him so
This is absolutely ridiculous but it’s so much fun to do
AMA about Love Gun (MacCready x fem!SS)
Hi guys, Keith here!
I’m still kind of new to the FO4 fandom and well, I wanna oficially introduce myself with this AMA about the fanfic I’m writing: Love Gun.
↓ a little bit of information if you’re interested in reading! ↓
Summary: MacCready gets hired by one, if not the most mysterious woman of the Commonwealth.
No name, no talking. MacCready didn’t even know her name or voice but there were two things he could be certain about that peculiar job: he would be handsomely paid and that his boss carried a heavy past on her shoulders and hid it away in the depths of her heart.
MacCready had a policy of not making questions, but it wouldn’t be long until he would drown in a sea of questions.

I’ve been wanting to interact with my readers and reciprocrate the love they have given me through comments, kudos and bookmarks (❁´◡`❁)
So now that you know a bit, you can ask me about anything! For example, you could ask about world setting or places, Bluebird, MacCready, Nick or perhaps about my writing process and things like “what inspired you to...”, know what I mean?
Thank you for your time, have a nice day!
Tagging some people I think would be interested in this post: @theartofblossoming @drimko @kee-yooo @fallout3nerd @hi-its-me-minion ; If not, I’m sorry! Tell me so it doesn’t happen again (。・∀・)ノ
Hi, so I know that you are writing 'Love Gun' in a language that is not your first. Do you publish in both or just English? What drew you to focus on MacCready as a companion and how did you come up with the concept for Bluebird, your 'f!sole'?
Howdy!
I'm writing and publishing it only in English. This is because I want to familiarize with this language in a way that is not only translation— you see, a language has its quirks and things that, when it's seen from other languages' perspective it couldn't make sense. Slang and metaphors are unique according to the language and this remarks the reason why I'm writing in English.
For your second question, at first I was interested in Deacon and in fact, Love Gun was originally planned to have him as the protagonist! It fitted many of the ideas I had and some of those remain in the actual version, but I struggled to make it work. After days and days of uncertainty, I found an old picture I had on my phone about an old playthrough where MacCready was my companion. My mind exploded. Then, after I played FO4 once more and watched a lot of YT videos about companions reactions, I realized he was the one and only. Someone resilent, professional and yet kind, funny and with a lame taste in fashion was a perfect target.
And lastly, Bluebird. Oh my, she was so fun to imagine. As I said previously, this story was first planned as a Deacon x fem!ss and she was completely different to how she now is. I was inspired by this fic (which name I can't remember and God, I'm still looking for the name) where fem!SS was a foreigner, Swedish I think, and had moved to America with her husband to America. She struggled to talk with Deacon and others and the times she forgot how to say a word and her thick accent had driven me insane— in a good way ofc. I had fallen in love with that concept and wanted to play with it. MacCready was more similar to Sole Survivor than I had thought and that was essential to develop his arc in Love Gun.
Bluebird was originally planned to be a scientist! But after some research in AO3, I discarded it because it was overused! I wanted to come up with something different on its own way and after some research, the Bluebird we know came to be. However, the last thing I came up was her pseudonym. I wanted something memorable and tbh, I wanted it to be related with the word "bird" in honor to an ol' WIP of mine called "Songbird". After giving it a lot of thought with WORD opened in my laptop, the name Bluebird came up between some of the suggestions I had and fell in love with it as soon as it was written.
Thank you so much for asking, blossom! Have a nice day, take care (人*´∀｀)｡*ﾟ+
After a lot of work, here’s the finished version of Bluebird from Love Gun! And I’m so happy with the result (o゜▽゜)o☆
However I don’t feel like I’ll ever do justice to Bluebird’s tattoo.
She’s the most mysterious woman of the commonwealth, nobody knows her true name or her origins--only her height!
Below I’ll leave the summary of Love Gun, a F!SSxMacCready story, if you’re interested in reading.
