...

Afton thinks for some time, before eventually getting an idea... If he truly wanted to make use of the ability, then he'd probably have to put Shani in the position for it to activate. That would involve putting her there physically, or having her emotionally involved with whatever will happen. ​​

The only tricky part is, how would he do that? Or even, what would be a useful use for it?... Having someone able to see the future wouldn't be helpful if all they saw was themselves tripping over themselves or getting the wrong desert.

Thinking back to it, most of her visions involved times of great stress and potential danger... She said she hadn't had any visions since the one of her being operated on, so, it was likely a difficult thing to judge.

...

Well, the easiest is probably to just put her in danger... Or intend to put her in danger? He'd have to actually act for her to see a vision of it... So, maybe a timer that'd explode?... No... To be honest, this line of thought was more likely to turn her against him than anything else...

Maybe if he became close with her he'd be involved in her visions? That'd allow him to change the future accordingly, or at least, act on what it was about.

Still, a guttural feeling of disgust rose up in him at the thought of getting 'close' with her just to use her like that. He immediately rejected the notion of becoming intimate with her for such a thing, and instead thought on whether or not friendship was another avenue?... Maybe?... Regardless, it wouldn't hurt to try, worst comes to worst their friendship doesn't work out and it makes things awkward when they have to work together.

Just when Afton determines his plan of action, Shani's eyes roll to the back of her skull as she slump into the chair limply. Afton quickly gets up and calls for Glados as he begins checking Shani's condition, quickly noticing that she was somehow still conscious?

"Shani?" he quickly asks in a worried tone.

"Y-yes?" she mutters, still only showing the whites of her eyes.

"Are you alright? What's happening?"

"I-I think I'm having a vision...?" she mutters, sounding slightly disorientated.

Afton's face gains a look of concentration as he presses her, "What's the vision about?"

"Uhm... I... I see a hooded man... He's... He's lying down atop a rocky hill... He's looking down at Hoover Dam!" she chirps once she realises where she is.

"What's happening down at Hoover Dam?"

...

"I-erm... There's... A parade?" she mutters questioningly, "There's lots of people, they're watching the a stage... Someone's walking on the stage...? He's wearing a suit... Many masked, armed men follow him..." she carefully says.

A man in a suit presenting at a parade in Hoover Dam? Sounds like he's guarded by Ranger?... Afton's eyes widen as he questions her further, "Do you see a winged vehicle anywhere with golden two-headed bears on it? Or maybe a large convoy? Something that would transport things large distance?"

Shani unconsciously nods, "T-there is! Atop one of the towers..."

Afton grins maliciously, President Kimball. The Vertibird is called 'Bear Force One', and is the president's personal transport vehicle. Welp, looks like he'd be sending another person to meet Daisy in the afterlife. "Shani, can you tell what time it is? Can you tell where the sun is?"

"I-It's too cloudy to see..." she mutters, "T-the hooded man has a watch though... I-it's... It's 4 PM, the date... It's tomorrow!" she exclaims before suddenly passing out.

...

Afton's just left there next to the unconscious girl, just as many spiderbots arrive to take her into the Auto-Doc. Afton chews his lip for a moment before sending them off. He'd considered having them check her brain waves, but knew it was too late to scan them since the vision had ended.

As much as he'd love to continue contemplating this, he had things to do now... Apparently, President Kimball would be arriving at Hoover Dam tomorrow at 4 PM, so he'd have to make some preparation... As well as check on what the fuck his spies were doing... He knew when Crocker took a shit, so how did he not know what the President would be arriving!?

Quickly, he goes and starts organising everything, abandoning his other duties for the day. He knew the hooded man was likely Boone, due to the modifications that'd been made to Bulwark's stealth gear... For missions where you'd have to sit in the sun all day, an insulated hood was more than welcome... Come to think of it, did Boone even have a watch?

Afton shakes his head and has Glados prepare one, he'd give it to the man just in case, creating a paradox was the last thing he wanted to do. Wait... Why did Shani even have a vision of Boone?

"Urgh..." Afton feels like tearing his hair out. "Glados, have Boone and Shani had any contact since her rescue?"

"Negative."

...

So, either something happens in the future that has Shani emotionally invested in Boone, or, she already had a crush on the man?... Regardless, he'd need to take extra precautions, almost all of Shani's visions end up with some sort of disaster, with the vague exception of her latest one.

Whatever, once Kimball was assassinated, the destruction of the NCR would finally begin. He's about to get to work when Glados speaks up again.

"Creator, Subject Designated; Tamia, and the group assigned to her have not regained contact. What are your instructions?"

...

Huh, he thought they'd be able to contact Tamia once she reached the end of the Railway tunnel, but apparently, something had happened to prevent that... "Hmm, she could handle herself. Probably?... Send some patrols through the railway tunnel and search for any discrepancies, uh,er yeah... If you find any Cuthulu's hiding down there don't tell me about it, I'm definitely not dealing with that Lovecraft shit." he states before getting back to work.
