Yeah, I saw that Reilly has a thing going already. Too bad, she's got a lot going for her.
More chicks...
RED:
PROS: Not bad looking. I get hurt a lot. Free medical care would be nice.
CONS: I'd have to live in Big Town, AKA Suicide City
BRICK:
PROS: Good-looking. Loves to splatter muties. Slightly crazy (but in a good way).
CONS: I think she's got a steady thing going with Eugene.
ANGELA (Staley, not Princess)
PROS: Attractive, probably knows a bit about cooking.
CONS: A bit young. And she's taken with Diego.
TRINNIE
PROS: Are there any?
CONS: Drunk. And probably has several diseases.
VERA
PROS: Has a good business, would be a good mother, and not bad-looking.
CONS: Gossip-prone, and a bit old for me. And Seagrave might come after me.
I guess the LW would just have to go on a few dates, play the field a bit, and see which one he liked best.
As for pets, obviously Dogmeat would be the best choice, assuming he survived. Mole ratties are cute, in a gruesome sort of way; I think I'll let Moira handle the task of domesticating them. Brahmin are out, please, one head to a pet. And while a Yao Gui would be a formidable protector, taming one might be an unsafe activity. I'd go with a dog, maybe one of the Lamplight mutts will have puppies, and I could get one.
As far as kids goes, tough call: after absorbing all the rads I have, I wouldn't trust my own DNA (as Moira said, it got twisted like a kitten with a ball of yarn). But the adoption options are kind of limited as well. Consider the following orphaned or unwanted kids:
BRYAN: Orphan, but I'd rather let Vera take him in.
HARDEN: Possibly loses his Dad when Burke assassinates him. He'd need a family.
JAMES (Hargrave): Definitely unwanted. But he'd need a lot of straightening out.
THE ANDALE KIDS: If they're orphaned, I probably orphaned them. Wouldn't want them within 500 miles of me even in they weren't into eating strange meat.
THE LAMPLIGHTERS: The older ones dislike and distrust everyone over a certain age, and they look after the younger ones. But Bumble or Zip might be possible... if I told Zip about the Nuka Cola machine in my place, I might find him on my doorstep anyway.
