What would have happened if they moved to Primm? Carla was a Vegas girl, it's another city with a casino, and with the I15 there's plenty trade to guard, Boone could find work. Would they have lived unremarkably? Would the powder gangers still cause a way for Carla to die? Maybe Boone tried too hard to protect the town and he dies in her place. What about Goodsprings? How would they have handled living in Nipton? Is the tragedy of their story inevitable, or was the choice to live in Novac the mistake? So fuckin much left in Carla's story to look at ;-;
oof!! ouch! the potential of them living happy (if unremarkable) lives hurts!! but tbh i don't know if moving to novac is the definitive Mistake - i think as long as carla is hitched to boone, and boone needs to be a companion, and as a companion he requires a Backstory, something was bound to happen no matter where they end up living. the Backstory calls for tragedy, and tragedy it will get!
