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.

Hey. He should try laying in a pile of ghoul corpses and goo when he hasn't got power armor to protect him from the rot - oh, the stench is going to linger. At least the rotting pile of flesh saved Nora from injuring herself to severely. She'll have a few bruises in the morning, but nothing she can't handle.

"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."

She's tougher than she looks, Danse. Good job too since most things in the Commonwealth want to kill, maim or eat her. She should probably wear her power armor more than she does, but even the most finely tuned set is still clunky and much harder than just walking. Plus, trying to get ghoul goo out of the hydraulics is never fun.

"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..."
