She wasn’t used to having to think about her own mortality, let alone thinking about Sole’s possibly extending for longer than it naturally should, so she was heartbroken when she realised that she’d have to die and Sole would live for centuries longer. When Sole came rushing in to see if she was okay, Curie simply turned, confused and horrified all at the same time. The crash of the glass was an apt metaphor for what she felt in her heart.
She was thinking about it whilst in her lab in Vault 88 and when she finally realised just quite what those 400 years meant, the vial of blood slipped from her fingers. How could she make her peace with this? How could Sole do this?Ĭurie – “What a wonderful advancement in science! Oh I simply must study this phenomenon!” Curie would be ecstatic, her smile larger than anything at the wondrous scientific discovery, but something felt… off and she couldn’t quite piece together what that was. Without a word, Cait rose from where she was seated, her mind still spinning, and she walked out the door fighting back tears. She’d die of old age looking like an old hag whilst Sole will be sitting there holding her hand and looking no different to how they looked now, free to move on and leave her behind with not a second thought. She would be getting old, her hair would go grey, but Sole wouldn’t. All those talks they had, the ones she never would have dreamed she’d share with another person, all those dreams of living and growing old together somewhere in a secluded cabin had then come crashing down around her. The brawler stared up at Sole, getting more frustrated by the minute because something inside her chest suddenly started aching, like a knife had been plunged into her heart and had begun to twist. “No, but it will let me live without aging for at least 400 years, give or take a few.” They said quietly. “Ya mean yer immortal now? Like in the comic books?” She’d be angry and confused, the former because of the latter and she’d have to sit down to let her head stop spinning. The brawler just stared in shock, her mind racing through all these thoughts that just moments ago she wouldn’t have ever entertained. She didn’t even know something like that could even exist, let alone have Sole drink the dammed thing. But at least for a little while longer, she won’t lose one of her only surviving friends to the clutches of time.Ĭait – “Y-ya what?” Cait was at a loss for words. Time was not an important factor in her existence, therefore she never kept track of it so eventually it would run away from her and before she knew it, all the friends she had would grow old and die one by one.
After all, she was a robot who herself didn’t age.
I’m gonna go ahead and assume the companions are romanced for this one )Īda – The fact that Sole was practically immortal now – well, for at least the next 400 years anyway – didn’t bother Ada so much.
