Description Dylan sat in his new radio studio, making an announcement and sipping at a bottle of beer. He had sworn off hard liquor except for on special occasions the second the children were born.

“Daddy, Daddy, Daddy!” Amlyn came running in, dragging behind her a teddy bear and having a book under her arm, tugging at his pant leg.

“We interrupt this program for Amlyn’s scheduled interruption” he said. “One moment people, the Rose will be back.”

“Stwory Time!” Amlyn looked up to him with her pretty blue eyes that she had been given from her father, holding up the book he’d probably read to her at least a hundred times without exaggeration.

“This one again honey? You sure you don’t want to hear another one?” He asked, trying to encourage her to find another one.

“Nope!” She replied with her missing-tooth smile.

Sighing, he lifted the girl into his lap, “The Lone Wanderer risked his life in the chamber of project purity, but finally entered the code, and provided clean water for the entire capitol wasteland. The end.”

“Dat’s not how it goes!” She protested, crossing her arms in the same defiance of her mother.

“And then he met mommy and she beat the crap out of him and chased him with her plane. The end.”

“Nuh uh!” She shook her head, having her pigtails sway with the movement of her head. “One more time, daddy….Pleaseeeee?” She asked, pulling out all of the stops and cuteness she had within her.

Again, he sighed as he pulled the girl into his arms and read the story for the umpteenth time, giving in. “Alright. Time for bed honey.”

Amlyn yawned, snuggled in his arms. She looked up to him with droopy eyes. “I’m nwot tired though….”

“You are too honey, you’re yawning and about to fall on your face.” he teased, kissing her nose.

“Nuh-” She yawned. “-uh…”

He tucked her into her bed and hugged her. “Love you sweetheart. Sweet dreams.”

She kissed his cheek, wearily looking up at him, “Love you daddy.” she replied in a whisper.

“Night, Amlyn” he said, handing her teddy bear. “You forgot something.” Cooing softly to the girl who snuggled it. Amlyn fell back to sleep with the innocent soft smile on her lips; one that always melted the Lone Wanderer's heart.

I'm so proud of this. The above was a collaborative, somewhat cleaned up RP. Only reference used was of his Pipboy (wrist computer). This started out as an alternate if we played around with the timeline, and it might stick as canon in our collaborative. This (in theory...) takes place sometime around 2288 or after.

This was a new technique for me, but I'm pleased at the outcome.
