Bab 1: Cloudy with a chance of reincarnation
An eighteen-year-old teenage boy was leaning against the brick wall of where he was currently working... He kept his head down and listened to the music playlist on his phone as his co-workers talked amongst each other, they had around thirty more minutes until they had to get back to work. He usually just kept to himself, relaxing during the relatively short break his boss allowed them, though, if it wasn't a legal requirement he reckoned they'd not even receive toilet breaks.
His name was Leonard Walsh, a college dropout who'd immediately started working as soon as the law permitted it. He lived with his parents, more for the "cheap rent" than anything else, he didn't care about the stigma due to the fact that a college dropout like himself would either live here or on the streets.
When his parents had heard he'd dropped out of college, they'd been... Unamused, to say the least. It seemed they'd had some ill-conceived notion that he'd meet a girl in college, graduate, marry, get a well-paying job and probably assist them in their retirement. Leonard had no intentions of doing any of that, it was annoying enough to have his friend's expectations thrust onto himself, let alone his parents.
The reason for his lack of motivation? In his eyes the world was, to be put simply, boring. All his life people had been telling him what to do, but whether it was due to his stubbornness or something else, he couldn't bear to follow along like some sort of lemming.
A pat on his shoulder draws him from his thoughts, taking out an earphone he glances towards the offending co-worker.
"Hey, Leonard, me and the guys were wondering if you wanted to check out the new Fallout game... Its online and'll probably be fun to fuck around on.."
...
Leonard looks behind the teen and spots two or three other people looking at him expectantly, "Erm... What's your name again?" he asks, having never bothered to remember the names of these people.
...
They look slightly offended but quickly fix their expression, "Its John."
Leonard nods, "And... What's Fallout?"
...
Apparently, the fact he didn't know what Fallout is was more of a shock than his name being forgotten, John went on to describe the game, the franchise, and general premise.
Leonard couldn't help but be interested by it, a post-nuclear wasteland with drastically different technology to their own, with the addition of many mutated creatures to liven up combat? Sounds like fun... "I'm not all that into gaming... My console has just been collecting dust ever since I bought it, I was actually about to pawn it off..."
"Look, due to the release of Fallout 76, Bethesda has given a discount on all their previous games aswell as creating a bundle... How about you check them out before making a decision?"
Leonard shrugs, "I guess I could? When is the new one coming out?"
"Two weeks." he states and Leonard nods, "Alright, I'll buy'em on the way home... I'll let you know what I think."
John nods, "Cool-shit... Breaks over..." he complains, having spent the entire time describing Fallout to Leonard.
After work, Leonard had stopped by the store and picked up the bundle containing Fallout 3, Fallout Newvegas, and Fallout 4. It was £20, so no big loss if he ended up hating them, if it was any pricier he might have just ignored it entirely though.
Getting home, he kicks off his shoes, and almost tears off his sweaty work clothes into a laundry basket. Ignoring his parent's greetings and heading to his room to check out whether these games were any good.
He started with Fallout 3 as it was the first game in the bundle, booting it up and finding that he'd actually be starting as a baby? Weird.
His playstyle was what some might call "Haphazard", ignoring most not integral dialogue and just doing as he pleases, as his "Father" was speaking to him he was idly thinking about whether or not it would be possible to enter the game as a baby... The thought thoroughly amuses him.
Leonard was a peculiar kind of person, lazy and motivated in most aspects of life... But, when he put his mind to it, nothing would sway him. Fallout 3, was significantly more fun that he'd initially thought it'd be... Three days quickly went by, everything except eating, drinking, and releasing his bowels forgotten. He didn't even notice his phone ringing for him, his boss firing him after the second day of getting no answer...
On the third day Leonard had finally completed the game, having done most of the side quests and collected the bobbleheads. The funny part was he had almost no idea what he was doing the entire time, simply shooting mutants, power armour wearing douche bags, and deathclaws. Following the pip on his map to go where he was needed... All he knew of the story was that the "Brotherhood of Steel were the good guys, Enclave were the bad guys, and everyone else is neutral."
He dropped his control and slumped backwards, exhausted from not having slept for three days... That didn't concern him though... "That was fun." he muttered, running through the Capital Wasteland having been one of the most fun things he'd ever done.
His eyes glanced towards the two other games he had yet to play... Taking another mouthful of the off-brand energy drink he'd stockpiled, he popped Fallout Newvegas into his console, determined to finish all of them as quickly as possible...
He didn't know what the plot would be, but he knew it'd be fun... Reading the back of the box as the game booted up... He'd be the... Courier? Strange name but whatever, he was already thinking of the various builds he could do... Becoming a melee only drug packing psychopath, energy weapons expert, or mad explosive flinger.
The game was almost about to start and the music was getting him hyped... Inwardly shouting "I'M READY, LETS DO THIS!"
...
His excitement was quelled however when his vision started blurring, he blinked a couple times to no avail, his sight was getting worse and worse the more time went on... He began getting nautious, getting to his feet and stumbling towards his window before throwing it open.
He gulped in mouthfuls of fresh air, only now realising how badly he'd let his personal hygiene go... With his vision still fading, he looked up at the clouds and had a strange thought pop into his mind...
"Why does that cloud look like a truck?"
He then collapsed, the indecent amount of energy drinks, sleepless nights, and improper eating leading to a catastrophic heart attack. His body was found a couple of days later when his parents got curious at what he was doing, only then spotting their decomposing son.

Niggross The start of my new Fanfic, hopefully you guys'll enjoy it. If I missed anything please let me know!
Bab 2: Blue Womb, you saw me standing alone...
Leonard had experienced a few things in his short eighteen years on earth, tasting various foods, feeling the full range of possible emotions, suffering pain, anguish, and despair. Falling in love but it ending unrequited.
But, the current situation had considerably baffled and confused him... His body felt weird, not like he was used to, he couldn't breathe but felt no urge to anyway. In all honesty, it felt like he was currently within a warm water balloon, occasionally he'd feel pressure from random directions, but it was nothing more than an annoyance.
Leonard stretched his limbs out but felt them reaching the barrier of whatever was holding him... He remembers that he'd just passed out after his three-day marathon playing Fallout 3, but had no idea how he'd ended up "Here".
He combed over the possibilities, and all of them were unsatisfactory, he'd been abducted by aliens, his government or a terrorist organisation? Probably not, but it was an option.
He had a mental breakdown and this is within his own mind, the experiences just echoes of what he true body was feeling? That didn't sound right.
He'd died, and this was Heaven, Hell, or Limbo... Leonard refused to believe that God existed, so this one was out, even if it were true.
He was paralyzed and this was simply what you felt when all senses were lost? Likely?
The last thing on his mental list was that he'd somehow been stuffed inside a womb? He assumed this is what being inside one would feel like, feeling around with his weak and for some reason small hand allowed him to feel what could only be a placenta. He left it alone for the time being, if it was what he thought it was, he'd definitely die if he damaged it.
Giving another kick in irritation he could hear a female yelp, it wasn't loud and was difficult to hear due to him being submerged, but it lead credence to him being inside a womb.
That only brought more questions to the table though... How. How was he here, and was he even "Leonard" anymore? He speculated that he may have been reincarnated and if so his original name would likely be replaced by whatever his new parents called him. More importantly though, why was he here? Did he anger a God somewhere and as punishment they'd forced him to live through life again? Some wouldn't consider that all that bad, but Leonard thought differently...
Life was boring enough as it is, and having to redo school and college again made him want to just pull the placenta out and end his new life before it even began.
Of course, there were other options. Maybe this would be beneficial to him? The start of Fallout 3 had you being born, perhaps it was something similar to that... If that was the case, wouldn't that make him the Protagonist?
It may just be wishful thinking, but if that were possible he'd jump at the opportunity. His experience playing Fallout 3 was still fresh in his mind, and to be honest, he wouldn't mind playing it again.
He'll just have to wait and see where he'd end up... For all he knew he could be being born in Warhammer 40k, and if that were so, even if he killed himself he was fucked.
A month went by and Leonard continued floating in the womb, trying to find things to think about to alleviate his boredom. He'd gone through a phase of kicking his "mother" whenever he wanted, the yelps of pain and surprise amusing him for a time before it quickly got old.
He'd then started reliving his old memories, though, most were so boring he just dreamt of playing Fallout, sad yes, but it was the clearest and most interesting thing he could remember.
Eventually, he felt the fluid surrounding him drain, and loud voices from outside his "prison" could be heard... Either, he was about to die or was getting birthed, Leonard was looking forward to both options.
Soon enough he felt a pressure on him, and he twisted himself to go headfirst towards whever it was pulling him... He knew that a babies best chance for survival was going headfirst, he was able to think and move himself so it was easy to get into the correct position...
What Leonard hadn't expected was the ungodly pain he'd experience as he was getting pushed out. His head was literally being crushed and squeezed as cold plastic covered hands tried to assist his mother in birthing him. He head got through but not without consequences, his thoughts were fuzzy and he was almost running on instinct...
His chest come next and some hands wrapped around him to pull, his body was fragile and he thought he'd be torn in half... He coughed and sucked in a breath as the pain continued to climb, only now realising that he was able to breath.
"WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!" he unconsciously started wailing, his unused pain receptors suddenly all flaring as a nurse cleans him off and wraps him into a blanket, a few minute later the pain slowly fading into a dull ache.
Leonard struggled to open his eyes but was eventually able to and started looking around, noticing that he was inside some sort of rundown building... It looked like the wallpaper was almost entirely gone, with the walls themselves slowly rotting away.
His mind was still muddled after having his brain squished, but he managed to look over at the pale woman holding him as well as the large man lovingly holding her.
"What should we call him?" the man asks, his scraggly brown hair and stubble making him look like a homeless person.
The woman smiles down at him, "Afton... Afton Parker." she says, giving the man a kiss before pecking her new child on the forehead.
Leonard, or now Afton Parker couldn't bear it any longer and passed out, wondering if he'd been born to some homeless people.
