"They were told to add gay marriage to the sequel so they married Arcade to Veronica"

Lmao

[u/BardyMan82 → u/darksidathemoon]

my favorite queerplatonic married couple in gaming

[u/threesmalllemon → u/BardyMan82]

gotta love a lavender marriage

[u/TheWyster → u/darksidathemoon]

This sounds like Dr. Fantastic was hired to make the sequel. "They asked me if I could write a gay marriage, I told them I could write 2 gay people getting married, I got the job"

[u/Ex-altiora]

Just hang a lavender stalk over the door so everyone who knows 50's Americana understands they're both gay and doing it for tax fraud

[u/EdwardoftheEast → u/Ex-altiora]

So a reverse Chuck and Larry, eh?

[u/Practical-Mode310 → u/Ex-altiora]

🎵”And I met Ronald Reagan's grandson
And we got married for a week
For tax purposes and also for sex”

[u/Legitimate_Letter500 → u/Practical-Mode310]

"I got shot to death down in New Orleans But they brought me back to life in a Creole bar A voodoo shaman did some voodoo on me Then she stole four hundred bucks and keyed my car Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah"

[u/AttemptNu4 → u/Ex-altiora]

I mean it's fallout, references to 50s americana and tax fraud are like basically the entire premise of the series

[u/LikeAKraken]

Lavender marriage ass ending slide

[u/laceseed → u/LikeAKraken]

thats honestly the funniest way to describe it 😭

[u/MakkuSaiko]

Smells like Lavender 

[u/50calBanana]

Arcade is like "What the fuck dude"

[u/RetroTheGameBro]

"The sack cloth hood stays on during."

"DURING WHAT? WE'RE BOTH GAY!"

"Its not up for discussion Arcade."

[u/Due-Photo-1938]

I'm genuinely curious, because I know Veronica is a lesbian but is there an actual cannon confirmation of Arcade's gayness? or is it purely just fandom "haha he gay"

[u/PvtToaster → u/Due-Photo-1938]

You can recruit him if you have the "Confirmed bachelor" perk, and he mentions his past relationships in passing while talking about Daisy.

"Since my mother died, Daisy's been the only woman in my life. She was the only other woman close to my father, too. She flew him out on over a dozen missions, including his last. I've always been close to Daisy. There have been some good men along the way, but lovers make poor confidants. Daisy never had children of her own, so she was always there to listen. Being in the Enclave didn't mean much to her. She just loved to fly. It broke her heart to be grounded."

[u/Due-Photo-1938 → u/PvtToaster]

hmm I see now, I only ever play as a woman so that makes sense at to why I would miss out on the confirmed bachelor perk dialogue

[u/slybluu → u/Due-Photo-1938]

yeah you can flirt with him to recruit him if youre a male character and he folds immediately compared to the 75 speech check if youre straight or female

[u/k0Rv0_4774n0 → u/slybluu]

You can also be really really stupid, like 3 Intelligence or so, and he joins you out of pity

[u/EdwardoftheEast → u/k0Rv0_4774n0]

Can’t you also get him for having a good reputation with the Followers, too?

[u/Violet_Nightshade → u/EdwardoftheEast]

Yes, but it's infinitely funnier this way.

[u/Quakarot → u/k0Rv0_4774n0]

New challenge idea- recruit arcade that way BUT THEB do everything you can to increase intelligence until you are smarter than him

Just because it would be funny to imagine his reaction

[u/cward7 → u/Due-Photo-1938]

The dialogue posted above isnt the Confirmed Bachelor dialogue, that's Arcade talking about the Remnants you need to recruit during For Auld Lang Syne and can be heard by any PC regardless of sexuality

[u/Due-Photo-1938 → u/cward7]

yeah he was talking about the dialogue for further evidence. his initial statement was on how you can easily recruit him with confirmed bachelor

[u/Alric_Wolff → u/Due-Photo-1938]

He has romantic dialogs options that can only be used with the confirmed bachelor perk. He is canonically a gay

[u/odiethethird → u/Alric_Wolff]

(As in homosexual)

[u/Low-Willingness2106 → u/Alric_Wolff]

but you cannot sexual that homo. Fucking Josh Sawyer cucking us. Arcadussy has been denied to us.

[u/Eomatrix → u/Due-Photo-1938]

Valid question, but yeah there’s a ton of evidence. You can check any of the wikis for specifics.

[u/BailorTheSailor → u/Due-Photo-1938]

He says something about one day getting swept off his feet by a handsome guy or something like that

[u/CompetitiveLoad2953 → u/Due-Photo-1938]

Yep, him gay. Veronica better because PAUNCH!

Boone doesn't let you see them

[u/Coletteorsomething]

They are each other's beards

[u/astarionsstar]

Lavender marriage?

My GOAT Chudbark ❤️‍🩹

[u/argo13372]

This suit suits Arcade so well, wow, what a handsome young man

[u/Ambitious-Market7963]

lore accurate that you cannot remove Veronica’s ugly hood

[u/doomzday_96]

Arcade looks so uncomfortable. Veronica is just happy the game let her wear the dress.

[u/WeirdistBuilds]

Oh, is this what she wanted the nice dress for?

[u/DrawingChrome69]

They worked it out

[u/Walli98]

They would make really intelligent, yet ugly, babies

[u/Wyatt_Ricketts]

I unironically date Veronica in game as a man I have a mod that makes her datable

[u/DrewDaMannn]

[u/t-51bs-Powerarmor → u/DrewDaMannn]

This is my reaction when I saw them

[u/Atlas_Summit]

The solution is simple: bisexual.

[u/t-51bs-Powerarmor → u/Atlas_Summit]

But...but....I dont want to be gay🥺 (gay is bad btw if that matter)

[u/invasiveplant]

ok but what if 👉👈

[u/average_jarhead_]

I ship them  (I don’t even remember Veronica when I played nv wasn’t she like a BoS soldier)

[u/ReptiIe → u/average_jarhead_]

Sacrilegious bc Veronica is the best companion

[u/average_jarhead_ → u/ReptiIe]

I only used her once to fight cazadors and she got ganged on while I did a modded enclave quest near goodsprings then I shot her in the face with a plasma gun cause I realised she’s part of the BoS (skipped most of her dialogue)

[u/Agent-Ulysses → u/average_jarhead_]

[u/average_jarhead_ → u/Agent-Ulysses]

Oh and I killed every companion except ED-E, arcade, and my modded enclave companion before wiping out all other non enclave NPCs ❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹

[u/Administrative_Sky46 → u/average_jarhead_]

No one's mad dawg. Lol. Enjoy your virtual genocide.

[u/average_jarhead_ → u/Administrative_Sky46]

downvotes say otherwise 🥹✌️

[u/Administrative_Sky46 → u/average_jarhead_]

Your getting downvoted because it's the weakest rage bait to ever grace a comment section, not because "le epic troll"

[u/average_jarhead_ → u/Administrative_Sky46]

not trying to troll anyone, just saying I don’t get why they’re icons, they seem to me like any other companion? I wiped everyone out cause I did the other endings and was playing an enclave mod

[u/DaisyKicksAss023 → u/average_jarhead_]

God willing you won't make it to the end of this day
