Nothing like boots on the ground.
Who: Paladin Danse & Nora
Where: Sanctuary Hills
Summary: After Danse speaks to Nora about helping her with her duties as a Minuteman.
What: Danse is ready at the crack of dawn, and seeing he was not the best sleeper, he was well ready long before hand. And with a good supply of fusion cell ammo for his laser rifle, and his X-01 power armor that is always well maintained, Danse was just waiting to hear where it is both he and Nora would go. And like a good soldier he is standing there besides his defense post keeping watch over the settlers who have long since retired for the night.
It is a peaceful night without a drop of neither rain nor one of the famous radioactive storms that blew in from the Glowing Sea. And as he waits, Danse looses himself to the twangy sound of Johnny Cash singing about those Folsom Prison Blues that play on his radio. And as quiet and normally unnerving a night like this is, Danse seems to welcome in. He can allow himself sometime with his own thoughts, and allow himself to try to figure out everything that has happened to him since his banishment from The Brotherhood of Steel. And if he is to keep his sanity, Danse needs not only to keep his mind busy but also to try to figure out this new life as a synth out.
So there, he stands without his helmet on at the Sanctuary Sign like he promised. "Now watch this be a day where Garvey doesn't have work for her to do." He mutters aloud to himself, and he cracks the knuckles of his power armor.

"Ugh. Yeah. I'm good. Nothing a shower won't fix." She grabs hold of his offered hand, yanking herself up onto her feet. It never ceases to amaze her just how much the metal hand of his power armor dwarfs her small, delicate hand.
"Save the rad away for later. We still gotta finish clearing this place out and I reckon I'm going to suck down a few more rads before we're done."

Danse has been there, done that, and he's been swarmed by ghouls before and nothing ruins a day other than a glowing one. And somewhere in the pile of rotting ghoul, the faint glow of the highly radioactive ghoul can be seen struggling to get up. "Let's get going before that down there crawls up from the pile of his dead friends."
And they are both going to need a shower; Danse isn't exactly going to let that ghoul continue to hang out in what might be a new settlement.

"A glowing one? Thought today was going too easy..." They've come this far, might as well make glowing juice out of the bastard before they leave. Feral ghouls are bad. Glowing ones... Ugh. Nora hates them.
She slips a frag mine from her pack and slides it into the pile of rotting corpses. It'll be bye bye ghouly if it crawls up over it. "We might want to get back..."

"Either that or I need to get my Geiger counter fixed, but I know that cloud of glowing radioactive gas from anywhere." Danse doesn't hesitate to step back from the pile, and the last thing he wants to do is getting caught in the middle of the blast from the mine.
"You don't have to tell me."
The ghoul continues to shuffle from the pile; a cloud of radioactive horror swarming around its glowing decayed body fills the room around them. It begins to shamble towards the two, and it has no idea that Nora placed a mine in its way. It shambles forward, growling and spitting up until it steps on the mine. And with a big explosion, and ghoul corpses flying in a number of directions the tougher than normal ghoul is crippled. It isn't dead, but Danse won't waste time when it comes to putting a laser bolt in to its head.
