This has so many interesting worldbuilding details! The part about Six getting used by the NCR is realistic, I can totally imagine that happening.
He still feels his jokes aren’t so great, and he wonders if it’s the familiarity that makes it a comfort. the smile on his face, the sound of his laughter, and the way he says Boone’s name. “You used to bring trouble everywhere you go.” He doesn’t say it as a joke, but Six laughs anyway. There’s something underlying Six’s words, but he doesn’t ask what it is and can’t interpret it. Instead, he just assumes.
Okay, I have to stop c/ping otherwise I'll just be copying the entire fic, but lines like these really speak to the Boone/M!Courier dynamic. Understated practical Boone keeping things close to his chest, and a Courier who's been through everything the world can throw at him but stil has humor and energy... it's so good. This is a great read so far, I can't wait for the rest.
