thoughts on the best ending slide where the Khans and Followers of the Apocalyspe meet up in the north and create a mighty society?
I think its so interesting because on the basis of FNV it's likely The Followers would not fuck have actually fucked with The Khans.
Like not in a mean way but Followers and the Khans differ on pretty fundamental levels. They already had prior and brief interactions where the Followers taught the Khans how to make a lot of the chems they sell, hoping they'd use it for benevolent purposes. They likely would not be happy or thrilled to know what they were actually using them for or that they were supplying them to the Fiends of all people. Especially if Julie Farkas is still in charge, she reacts very negatively to the idea of working with the Atomic Wrangler on the sole fact they intentionally hook their patrons on substances to keep them coming. Even if the Khans stopped there'd be the question if the Followers would look past this for cooperation.
We also have the fact that the followers are generally pacifists and loathe violence. They have guards as holding such beliefs makes them a vulnerable group but it's still another contrast from the more aggressive Khans. Not even to get started on them siding with the Legion, who will slaughter the Followers if they win (on the condition Caesar is dead) or run them out of the Fort and have a kill-on-sight protocol for them. The rule of fiction is they bonded over being run out or settled their differences but the build-up to the thriving empire is so much more interesting, along with the current state of it as it no doubt had to alter a lot of Khan traditions.
What I find most interesting about this ending is more so the effect the player has on it. If we use the idea the Followers they reconnect with are a different branch, then the Khans only go on to create a legacy and become a powerhouse again like in the first game. If we like to believe the Followers influenced positively then for good too (and not like their Fallout 1 predecessor). It's a clean slate for them in Wyoming but I do question what happened to the people already settled there?
If we take it was the Followers from the Fort, this route only happens if the player pointedly neglects a lot of Follower interaction and begs the question if they were desperate for a protective allegiance. The Followers are already run ragged with demands by the time the Courier gets there and being forced to leave under any of the conditions wouldn't help either. Just because they helped the Khans doesn't mean it was because they went with the same goals, more so it was mutually beneficial, much more on the Khans side because they would have to give significantly less up as the providers in this scenario.
Ultimately I think it's interesting no matter what because I like to imagine the turmoil and beef they had before cooperation. The Followers are seen as peace-loving doctor hippies by a lot of the Mojave and NCR but they are never truly hated. They just suck at actually forming alliances. To where the Khans' history and reputation are a big reason why they had to side with the Legion for revenge on the NCR despite the NCR not being loved either. To have to work with a group that previously sided with the faction that wanted you dead or just in general went against what you stood for is fascinating from a story standpoint. The fact that they prospered is another!
It's also interesting as this is treated as a much better thing for the Great Khans as it only appears on their ending slide and not the Follower's.

It's funny I didn't actually know I had scoliosis until I was 17, getting the full checkup b4 getting general anesthetic to have my wisdom teeth out (they were gonna grow directly into the nerves yikes)
And then during the checkup the doctor ran his hand down the spine to look at it. Paused. Checked again. And then was like ".... I'm gonna send you down to get an x ray now" ajskfkgkhh

Me, a bi trans man, unable to read any x readers or y/ns catered to me because they all include vag penetration which doesn’t do anything for me and makes me extremely uncomfortable and dysphoric:

I love love your fankids so damn much! 😭 please share anything you have about any of them bro 🙏🧡
ahhh okay!!
Considering calling baby felmier smth like Lacey. Very southern us name-
nami and Samir regularly bully my treyjade daughter for being British (British museum jokes)
Floyd has two sons, they’re also twins and are the worst. Don’t have names but I call them the piranhas. They terrorize nrc somewhat often
faraja is surprisingly nimble. She’s very good at slipping past people in spell drive
Nami has a routine problem of “Alpha/sigma” dudes trying to get with her while saying the most sexist and abusive shit just bc of Azul’s business. They do think they can run it better than she can, so why doesn’t she just marry them and give them everything?? She fucking despises this shit. (Also. I’ve learned somewhat recently that now they’re tryna say that OMEGAS are on top of those two categories, and I need EVERYONE to start commiting to that bit. Come on. Everyone stay quiet abt it and we can get a politician to call themselves an omega)
Treyjade daughter was dropped by Floyd as a baby (Into a pool, but it was fully an accident. It was just luck they were in a pool)
OH OH FUCK I FORGOT A STORY THING I CAN TALK ABT. GIMME A SEC ILL REBLOG THIS WITH IT- it’s like more of a story so I wanna format it differently
