V-BOY'S JOURNEY
3/7/20242 min read
Once upon a time in V-Boy's once-happening stomping grounds, things took a hilariously unexpected turn. A shadow, probably from a mutant umbrella or something, decided to be the ultimate drama queen and fell on V-Boy's reputation. Whispers and rumors spread faster than irradiated bunnies, reaching the ears of God Howard, the wasteland overlord with a flair for the dramatic.
God Howard, fearing V-Boy's uncanny ability to make surviving look easy, declared him a threat to his fragile order. The accusations ranged from V-Boy being too handsome to misplacing a rare post-apocalyptic sock. It was a mix of envy and misinformation that led to V-Boy being unceremoniously kicked out of his stomping grounds, where the streets that once high-fived him now echoed with the sadness of a party without snacks.
But V-Boy, not one to let a little eviction dampen his spirit, packed his essentials – probably some canned laughter and a fake mustache – and bravely faced the unforgiving wasteland alone. God Howard's relentless pursuit was more dramatic than a radroach doing Shakespeare, as V-Boy found himself sleeping on concrete beds and seeking refuge in alleyways that seemed to have more personality than some wastelanders.
Exile's weight pressed down on V-Boy, but his spirit was as unbroken as a Super Mutant's dance moves. He'd weathered storms fiercer than a ghoul with a bad hair day, after all. With a grit that rivaled the taste of irradiated coffee, V-Boy embarked on a journey to the next booming town – a whopping 300 miles away. To him, that distance was merely a stroll through a radioactive park, having conquered nature's obstacles back when the trees weren't all glowing.
Thankfully, V-Boy, the financial genius that he was, had saved up enough caps during his time in the now-forbidden territory. These reserves became his lifeline – the survivalist's version of a golden parachute. Venturing through desolate landscapes and past remnants of forgotten towns, he hoped the next destination would offer opportunities denied to him in his former stomping grounds.
Hiking through the desolation, V-Boy envisioned a fresh start in the new town on the horizon. Despite the hardships and God Howard's relentless pursuit (which probably included dramatic monologues and occasional jazz hands), he clung to the dream of reestablishing Vendor76, his well-loved general goods store. He hoped this time around, people would appreciate his skills and resilience without accusing him of being a wasteland fashion icon by mistake.
As V-Boy continued his journey, the miles beneath his worn-out boots became a testament to his unwavering determination and the undeniable comedic value of life in the wasteland. The empty streets and alleys, now his temporary abode, were just pit stops on the way to the next town – a place where he'd rebuild Vendor76 more fortified than ever.
