Ada:
She has absolutely no idea why Sole is suddenly an anxious mess– things had seemed to be going alright! Regardless, Ada will check in with Sole. She also asks if a hug would make them feel better– when Sole nods yes, Ada awkwardly hugs Sole with her robot arms. She’d seen hugs make her old friends feel better, so hopefully this helped Sole…
Ada also asks Sole if they want to stop and unwind for a bit. Sole agrees, and the loyal robot will stand guard so they can calm down a bit.

Cait:
Rather confused at first– Why the fuck was Sole all shaky and panicky all of a sudden? They were safe in this little camp, right?
Then she remembers that her good friend Sole had anxiety.
Cait asks if Sole is okay, and offers them some cool water. She’ll sit next to Sole, letting them talk to her if they wish. Cait does her best to reassure Sole, though it’s difficult for her to understand these panic attacks…
With time, she’ll get better at helping them!
~~~~
Codsworth:
Ever since he’d met Sole, he was aware of their anxiety. He had picked up on the little things– their tics, habits, and symptoms. Whenever they get into a really panicky state, he calmly reassures them that they’re okay. Then, his caretaker programming kicks in. Codsworth will get Sole blankets, some food, a pillow, magazines– anything they need or want. He’ll also lend an ear, to listen to them. Poor Sole shouldn’t have to deal with such a condition, so Codsworth will try and make things as easy as possible for Sole.
~~~~
Curie:
She’s well aware of a panic attack’s effects on a person. When Sole goes into one, Curie asks if they need to go to a more comfortable or safe place. She also talks to them, to try and keep their mind off whatever is bugging them– though if Sole wants to talk about it, she’ll certainly listen!
Curie does also remind Sole to take deep breaths, and to do whatever they need to in order to feel better… As long as it’s healthy. She also offers up hugs, if Sole needs some contact comfort!
~~~~
Danse:
He knows a few of his soldiers suffer from a similar fate– in fact, he himself has seen some traumatic stuff that’ll randomly trouble him. Danse puts on the radio for Sole– that seemed to help him, so perhaps it’d help Sole?
The paladin also listens to Sole, should they wish to speak about the thing that’s bothering them. Danse might give them a quick hug if they ask for that sort of reassurance. He also will tell them over and over that everything is okay, and that they’re safe with him.
~~~~
Deacon:
When Sole starts becoming more anxious, Deacon tries to head off a panic attack before it occurs. He’ll check in with Sole, and let them know that he’s there for them– no matter what. He also recommends that perhaps they should rest and unwind for a bit.
If Sole does pass into panic attack territory, Deacon breaks out the tasty snacks, and some water. He’ll tell jokes and funny stories to try and take their mind off their worries. If Sole wants to talk about it. Deacon is ready to listen.
It might be hard for him to keep his mouth shut, but he can definitely manage for Sole!
~~~~
Dogmeat:
When Sole randomly falls victim to a panic attack, Dogmeat is at a loss. He does his best by cuddling up to Sole, wagging his tail slowly. He’ll give them plenty of kisses too! Sole knows that he loves them, right? And that he’ll always be there for them?
~~~~
Hancock:
Might honestly try offering Sole some chems, to help them relax. However, Hancock then realizes that this runs much deeper than a little random nervousness. He’ll apologize for trying to dope them up, and just try and comfort Sole to the best of his ability. If they ask for a comforting hug, Hancock will awkwardly oblige– he isn’t used to people wanting to hug him post-ghoulification. Still, anything to help Sole!
He also picks up some of their favorite snacks, so that they can at least enjoy something. Hancock does have plenty of wild tales to tell, and he makes sure to offer his storytelling services to Sole.
~~~~
Longfellow:
Not used to dealing with this sort of thing, Longfellow panics himself. Why on Earth was Sole so anxious? How could he fix this?
He tells them to relax, which doesn’t do anything for Sole’s panic. Apologizing, Longfellow helplessly offers them a sleeping bag. Perhaps they can sleep it off? He does make sure to hide his whiskey– Sole definitely shouldn’t get their hands on that, if they’re already in bad shape.
Longfellow does assure Sole that he’ll keep watch while they nap. He’s ready to stay up all night if needed, so Sole feels safe!
~~~~
MacCready:
He’s got some understanding of panic attacks– they seem similar to how he gets sometimes. MacCready lets Sole borrow his prized comic books, so they can get back on track mentally. No use in stewing over the stuff that makes you anxious, right…?
Distraction always worked for him, so he tries that for Sole. MacCready also gets them some food and clean water. He also lets Sole borrow his bedroll, should they wish to lie down or nap. MacCready tucks Sole in, and sits next to them– Rifle at the ready, in case Sole needs defending.
~~~~
Nick Valentine:
His calm voice sure comes in handy here. He’ll reassure Sole to no end, always checking up on them no matter what mood they’re in! When Sole has a panic attack, he immediately gets them some books, and a little bottle of cool water. Perhaps they can get their mind off the anxiety source, and onto something more enjoyable?
Nick is always happy to listen to Sole, too. He generally rests a reassuring hand on their shoulder, if they allow that. Sole sometimes asks for hugs, as Nick’s embrace is so solid and calming. He obliges, even if he doesn’t really understand why Sole wants to hug a hunk of metal and wires.
Whatever helps them, though!
~~~~
Piper:
While she may not totally understand, Piper asks Sole what she can do to help them. Whatever they need, she’s ready to get! Piper also makes little puzzles for Sole– Things like crosswords, word searches, the works. Those certainly should help get their mind off things! She also plots them out so they’re secret messages. Things like ‘you’re so awesome and brave, Sole’, y’know.
That seems to cheer Sole up a little!
~~~~
Porter Gage:
Oblivious. He doesn’t get it at all, and will often tell Sole to calm down. He tells them to go and unwind somewhere, or do something fun.
Once Sole explains, though, he gets it a bit more. It’s hard to temper his ‘just relax’ reflex, due to his rough upbringing. But he tries, and does offer what help he can. Gage listens to Sole’s woes, and does try to distract them with fancy knife tricks. He also grabs them some Nuka-Cola, or make some of that preserved boxed funnel-cake.
~~~~
Preston:
Having gone through similar things, Preston understands. He does make sure to tell Sole that, and ask them what they need or want. He offers them a lot of stuff, ranging from cozy blankets to story-telling. As long as they could get their mind off things, they’d feel better… At least, that’s how it went for him?
Hell, he’s even willing to cuddle with them, if that helps Sole feel better. Preston just wants them to feel better, and know that they have a friend who gets it…
~~~~
Strong:
Honestly, he doesn’t know what to do for Sole. He has no idea what these attacks are, and telling Sole to calm down just seems to make things worse. Strong tries to give them space instead, which also backfires.
Eventually, he realizes that Sole needs reassurance– and he gives as much as possible. Strong just wants them to feel better, so they can do more fun and dangerous stuff together!
~~~~
X6-88:
He recognizes that Sole is clearly under duress. He’ll constantly ask Sole if they’re okay, or if they need a bit of a break. Yes, it’d be wiser to keep moving. But this is Father’s parent– they need to be in tip-top shape, to aid the Institute. He eventually begins to care for them more as a person, though… Those attacks seem rather stressful for Sole.
X6-88 will just listen to them, and offer words of comfort. Once he realizes that this is really affecting Sole, and not the Institute, he gives them a blanket to cozy up in. He has a lot of stories from his line of work– perhaps he can get their mind off the anxiety? And help them feel better?
