'Under his command'? Last time she checked she was a Paladin too - not that she's entirely sure how that happened to be honest. After all, she defied Maxson's order to execute Danse. She disagrees with much of the Brotherhood's ethos. She's buddies with all kinds of synths, ghouls, and super mutants. Oh, and she totally works for the Railroad helping said synths. She's hardly the typical Brotherhood Paladin, that's for sure. To this day she's still not sure exactly why Maxson promoted her instead of booting her out.

Still, better to have the Brotherhood on side than not.

The explosion, followed by the shower of flailing ghoul corpses would probably be comical in any other situation, but the fact the glowing one is still shambling towards them keeps Nora's humour at bay. It just shows how rotted and feral the ghouls really are, even half dead and broken they still mindlessly attack even though death is inevitable.

Being the kind soul that she is, she gives Danse the pleasure of putting down the beast for good - after all, she knows how much he loves shooting ghouls.

"Now that's what I call a good day's work... We should head back and give them the good news."
