He marched through the wastes. He was also bright yellow, and had a tail that did not sway much. He was also named Buttercup, not exactly a manly name, but it was his. His friend needed him. What is that? It looks like him, but also very not...
She lived in seclusion with her people, avoiding the humans and their many dangers. They had weapons and loved to use them on anything that threatened them. It was very easy to threaten them. Buttercup was her name and scouting was her game. What didn't expect was to see a... sorta horse with a human.
Chapters (17)
Is that an Enclave officer in the picture?!

It is surprisingly difficult to get a picture of a fallout dude facing the camera.
Huzzah, the Buttercups have been doubled.
At this rate, the next thing theyll find is a cross between Stephen Magnate and a Manticoor..
A Dandylion?
So this is a Fallout crossover, not a Fallout: Equestria crossover?
Will put it on the list to read, either way.
10916943
Fallout crossover!
Nice! Looking forward to reading more.
10916723
OUCH! BAD PUN! BAD PUN!!
10916687
Hahahaha, so no Enclave?
>Fallout tag
>Everyone rating
Something doesn't seem right here...
10917727
Conferring with the one paying for the story, Teen was settled on.
10917817
Oh I wasn't complaining, just commenting on the odd dichotomy of a Fallout story being marked Everyone, given what Fallout is :P
10918596
I did write another Fallout E rated story.
10918686
Oh? Well I mean, tbf, Fallout simply implies Teen or Mature, it doesn't require it :p
Especially if you avoid the subjects that actually make it Teen or Mature. Y'know, all the censored and stuff

- Slice of Life
Hey, someone forgot this show was made for eight-year-old girls, but thankfully we can weave a tale of post apocalyptic survival without alienating our core demographic. Come and journey with me into Fallout Equestria, TV-Y.And now the actual question: Will that be a good or a bad thing?
That looks like a very promising story so far!
I look forwards to see what happens next.
Also, congratulations to your 100th story!
10922978
Oh shoot, this is #100? Nice. Good catch.
10923298
Say, is there any connection between the Giddyup Buttercup from this story and that one Giddyup Buttercup from Mothership Zeta?
(See 2:44, pay attention to his eyes and his surroundings.)
10925376
static.wikia.nocookie.net/fallout/images/2/2a/Giddyup_Buttercup.jpg
Same model, but there was far more than one built.
10925385
I was more talking about the fact this particular Giddyup Buttercup appears to be sentient and evil, unlike all the others who are mere toys harmless for children.
Maybe he escaped the spaceship and started roaming the wasteland?
And if there is no connection, he might appear later in the story?
10925408
He neighs and he trots and he'll love you lots. He can perfectly emulate horse behavior. The full models were clearly made with the same AI most fallout robots seemed to have.
Also he does love you. <3
Not the time to Stan yer ground?
I hope Stan does agree; I'd like to see what sort of town these ponies have! :)
That's one way to start a conversation with people you had just met...
They came very close, considering they have rifles.
But hey, raiders aren't usually the smartest people in the wasteland.
I mean, oftentimes they see a guy in Power Armor killing a Deathclaw with a Gatling Laser, and still decide it's smart to rush him with a lead pipe...
All of this is happening while the only guy who would care about Buttercups secret is right next to them.
The world needs more robot horses, the wasteland in particular.
Good chapter!
I enjoyed reading it and look forwards to the next part.
10933492
So... have you ever had the urge to just... murder someone? You know...
10933505
This question reminds me of the Crimson Nirnroot from The Senile Scribbles:
In case you (or anyone else stumbling upon this commens) haven't seen it yet, here is the link to the complete series:
Another great story. Added to the list!
Not that much difference between My Little Ride On Izzy, and Giddyup Buttercup?
I wonder if they will use the jingle.
Izzy Whizzy, Lets Get Busy.
10933505
I get them all the time among other things.
Its about not acting on them
10949768
See? Perfectly normal human thing.
The party assembles, and Im wondering if Skyline is Sandras experiment?
Especially if they pick up a Zeeb on the way?
Oh, indeed, some interesting developments, and what look to be more ahead. :)
(Also, speaking of typos, Skyline appears to have been called Skylight in a few places.)
10950778
Like bandits, Typos are always there to mess up the flow.
I had to smirk.
Not sure why, but I had to.
He almost bluescreened, didn't he?
Stan: "So, is Watch Out your name or your job?"
Watch Out: "Yes."
I hope no pony parents got the idea to name their foal Cannon Fodder...
Ponies are simply too good for this world.
Okay, things just got (even more) interesting.
He is a member of this truly majestic tribe:
Dont tell Giddyap about being quiet doing the soft shoe shuffle, or Stan would end up with a caravan of Mules?
...Makes sense, if you think about it.
I guess everyone had the same idea.
Now it's just a matter of time until the bandits catch up and the road ends up being the safest place...
He's certainly not horsing around!
Except you have Dirty Water, Boiled Water, Purified Water, Aqua Pura, ...
She is also swishing her tail, right?
Good chapter!
I'm curious to see what/who they will encounter inside the vault. (And what number the vault has.)
10977232
Her tail served as a backup fan for cooling purposes.
"Skyline starting putting things back, meat on one side of Buttercup, pony-safe vittles on the other."
"Skyline starting putting things back, meat on one side of Giddyup, pony-safe vittles on the other."?
"She wobbled a hoof between herself and giddyup."
"She wobbled a hoof between herself and Giddyup."?
10978036
Oh no, the typos did spread.
10978049
Aye, those typos can be slippery things, getting all over the place. :)
So many extra functions in Robobat, I wonder if Giddyap will be able to give him a list, if not have the time to work through everything?
Assuming Batty isnt Bugsy.
The road repair service had been terrible for the last 200 years.
Once they finally decide to come back to work they will find a gigantic backlog waiting for them...
I hope that doesn't void the warranty.
Not sure, but not a full bad pony...
Good chapter!
I enjoyed reading it.
"Stan's progress slowed, placing his hooves carefully on the terribly uneven terrain."
Presumably that was meant to be someone else's name?
10984944
That was clearly Giddyup speaking, silly robot glitches.
First: I guess it's a monocular then.
Second: You may have the high ground, but don't underestimate their power.
You had just loaded Chekhov's gun, didn't you?
Sounds good!
Not only is there no way this can go wrong, and it is also cute.
Miss Nanny: "Like I said, very different."
To be fair, that is always the right thing to do, isn't it?
Good chapter!
I enjoyed reading it and look forwards to see what happens next.
10993408
Glad you're enjoying. 1 more update is due this month, then back to 4/mo
"detergents. Everyone one might"
"detergents. Everything one might"?
"Stan's grip on his flightlight tensed."
What's a flightlight? Did I miss or forget something?
"He rest a hand on Giddyup's back."
"He rested a hand on Giddyup's back."?
I continue to enjoy this story; thank you for writing. :)
Also, I'm now wondering if perhaps Stan is a ghoul, and it hasn't come up because the only characters we've seen, until now, unfamiliar with ghouls are unfamiliar with humans in general.
