F!Courier is left seriously fucked up by that bullet to the head. As a result, she finds herself attracted to men that are grossly inappropriate for her for whatever reason. An elderly doctor, a basket-case sniper, a fanatic in a dog helmet... Take your pick, NV has any number of messed up men in it.
Arcade intervenes when he catches her coming onto one one of these men. It's obvious to everyone else that he's just taking pity on the poor girl, but she falls madly in love with him.
I want to see Arcade let her down as gently as he can. Bonus internets if she cries and Arcade tries to make her feel better and fails.
