The Brotherhood of Steel when the Minutemen rediscover artillery:
hey! It’s my birthday! Jew, how do you thingk peole in the wasteland celebrate birthdays and shit? Like cannonicly they celebrate Christmas and Halloween but what else?
How people celebrate birthdays in the fallout universe!
I did this by faction, hope that’s ok :)
Do raiders/watelanders know their birthdays? Their parents would have to survive through childbirth and to the point where a child can grasp the concept. Even then, would they celebrate? For many, being born in the post-nuclear apocalypse feels like a curse but do they still value their souls to the point they accept their existence? What about ghouls? Do they still keep living out of fear of the unknown, yet resent growing older with each passing day? Would they still care?
Personally, I love the concept of raiders being akin to a kindergarten class when it comes to birthdays. Someone brings in a huge box of Fancy Lad Snack Cakes and they go to town. Most likely not presents, but a bit more respect and kindness. After all, isn’t that the best gift in the wasteland? To know someone cares?
The brotherhood would probably award the participating party with half a day off to do whatever. Many probably have family members who are outside of the brotherhood’s ranks, or in Fo4, back in the capital wastes. Giving time off (as a reward) can allow for communication between loved ones, boosting morale and giving something to work for. I can just see a knight stepping out of their power armor and heading downtown to see magnolia sing.
No one in the institute would celebrate birthdays in a sentimental manner. Many will be recognized for a good job they did since they were first created/employed, but aside from that, birthdays will be scarce.
In the railroad, parties are kinda a big thing, mostly due to decon. Dez thinks it’s all a waste of time, but also secretly enjoys some levity. Lots of pranks and shananagins and cake smashing. It’ll be fun until someone runs in interrupting about some synth or safe house lost. Then back to business as usual. - (Side note: I headcannon the brotherhood interrupting during glory’s birthday party :). )
Minutemen is a bit tricky tbh. As a group, they definitely can spare a bit of supplies for a higher-ups birthday. If it’s just a regular soldier, they’ll probably get a pat on the back and a few nice words from Preston, with maybe so ammo. They don’t have a lot of time to spare, as well as materials to make it happen.
At home, (with the individual families and settlements), it’s hard to day. Depends on the person’s situation and preferences.
I think a lot of people celebrate turning a year older on new years. I’m guessing NYE is kinda a big deal. Like, we survived another year! Isn’t that great? And notjust us, but the world as we know it. Things shift, but they also stay the same. But war. War never changes.
Thanks anon for giving me this prompt!
Thinking about posting my minutemen general, she’s not my sole survivor but she’s a real sweetheart and I love her
Maybe I’ll even post some of her settlements or something for fun been taking a lot of screenshots lately
Ophelia Winchester general of the commonwealth minutemen!
One of my FNV kids all grown up! I love her so much - then they all moved to Boston ig
She has an illness? Mutation? That causes fungus to grow from her body it’s helpful though because it consumes radiation and allows her to heal a lot quicker than the average wastelander, she even has a little pet bird that follows her around
Ive still got a lot to figure out about her even though she’s one of my oldest ocs but she means a lot to me so I’m happy to be able to share her here !
any questions lemme know :D
Stay safe out there everyone 💛

Let’s talk Fallout!
My fallout hyper fixation is eating me alive so here what major or minor fraction the victims would join in the fallout universe
I honestly couldn’t think of anything of Julie so I just put her with yes man. I also couldn’t find a tier list with Virginia but I think she would join the responders or followers of the apocalypse
I firmly believe Preston had a hoe phase at one point. Probably when he just joined the minutemen but idk
