Dialogue improvements. First changes were because I felt the Courier should be pointing out to Chris that these are his friends, and they accepted him when he felt no one would. And the Black Widow perk option... Why would you compliment him when he called you ugly when you first arrived? More recently, I also made some changes to the dialogue choices with Jason Bright. Some changes are small, but to me each one matters.

UPDATE: Newest version has changes to dialogue with Jason Bright as well!
Alternate version available without the 'Two Bears High-Fiving' change!

Talking Jason about the "demons":
Original: I'll take care of the "demons" for you.
New:I suppose I can handle the “demons” for you.

Original: I've already killed your "demons."
New:Actually, I've already killed your "demons."

Original: Sorry. Not interested.
New:Sorry. I have no desire to get myself killed down there.


Talking to Jason about Chris:
Original: Well, it’s none of my business.
New:I guess there wasn’t many options when he wouldn't listen to the truth.

Original: Wow! You really pulled the wool over his eyes!
New:Sounds like it was pretty easy to deceive him. So he really has no idea he’s not going with you?

Original: You've been using Chris. It's despicable.
New:You've been using Chris. It's despicable. You should have tried harder to convince him of the truth.

I didn't like how there's a 100 character limit on the player dialogue, or some of the altered statements would have been longer.

The first change it dialogue is in Doc Mitchell's office- it changes 'A mushroom cloud.' (which I think is the one it least resembles) to 'Two bears high-fiving."

All other dialogue changes are in the 'Come Fly With Me' quest dialogue options when the Courier is talking to Chris Haversam.

Telling him he's not going:
Original: Jason told me himself. The Great Journey is for ghouls only. You're not going.
New:Jason told me himself it's for ghouls only. The Great Journey would kill a human. You're not going.


Black Widow perk option:
Original:  Honey, you're no monster. You're cute! Why, I could just about eat you up!
New:Honey, you're no monster. Plenty of good lookin' fellas are bald as an egg.

Talking him out of sabotage:
Original: That'd be murder, Chris. And you're no murderer.
New:They're your friends Chris, and that'd be murder. You aren't a murderer.

Original:  It's not a matter of smarts. You'd never forgive yourself.
New:This isn't about smart. I know you're smart... But if you did this, you'd never forgive yourself.

Original: They'd take you if they could, Chris, but you'd die.
New:They tried to tell you the truth when you first arrived. They wanted you to come, but you'd die.
 
Original: They're going to revere you as a Saint, Chris!
New:They accepted you as one of their own when you felt no one else would, and now you’re their Saint!

Original: That's not true, Chris. You're all right.
New:That's not true, Chris. You just had limited choices in friends in the vault. You're alright.   

Original: There's a little town called Novac down the road.
New:There' s a little town called Novac down the road. You can start over there.


When I first started on it, many of the altered dialogues were longer, but the hundred character limit interfered slightly. It was the closest I could get it to what I wanted. Here's some of my original ideas:

"Honey, you ain't a monster. Plenty of good lookin' fellas ain't got a hair on their head. Do a little working out and you could be one of them."

"They're your friends, and sabotaging those rockets would be murder, Chris. You aren't a murderer."

"This isn't about smart, Chris. We all know how smart you are. But if you did this, if you killed your friends, you'd never forgive yourself."

"They tried to tell you the truth when you arrived, but you wouldn't listen. So they accepted you as one of their own when you felt that no humans would. And now... now they are going to revere you as a Saint!"

"That's not necessarily true, Chris. You lived in a vault, with very limited options when it came to friend. People are different outside the vault. You're a good enough guy."

"There's a little town called Novac down the road. You can start over there. And hey, if you tell them you helped get rid of the ghouls, they'll adore you."
