Sticky

Stick, Sticky Hands, or Jack is a resident of Little Lamplight in 2277.

Background
He was known to his Lamplighter friends as "Sticky Hands", though now that he is grown up, he calls himself Jack. If asked what "Sticky Hands" is for, he replies mysteriously "Use your imagination." He's a nonstop-talking, annoying, exuberantly self-centered 16-year-old who acts like he's about 13 (as he hasn't been around enough adult role-models).

Sticky states that his age is 18. Everybody else says it is 16. In 2277, he is forced to leave, as all children of Little Lamplight must eventually do once they reach the age of 16.

Relationships
Sticky is friends with Red in Big Town. He refers to her as his "girlfriend", though she may not agree.

Daily schedule
Before the quest Happy Birthday to You, he can be found in Little Lamplight. Upon successful completion of the quest, he will reside in Big Town.

Quests

 * Happy Birthday to You: Sticky needs to get to Big Town, but needs an escort to get him there safely.
 * Big Trouble in Big Town: If you escorted Sticky to Big Town before solving Big Town's super mutant problems, he will help fend off the super mutant raid.

Effects of player's actions

 * If the Lone Wanderer fires Sticky, or refuses to take him to Big Town, Sticky will remain in the area you fired him in until the next time the Lone Wanderer enters that map cell, at which point he dies.
 * If you kill him while he is saying good bye in Lamplight Caverns, the other kids will comment that they thought he was annoying.
 * If the player refuses to escort Sticky when first meeting him by saying that they "want to visit Little Lamplight first", Sticky will stand on the other side of the gate indefinitely.
 * If the player offers to escort Sticky to Big Town and continues through Little Lamplight via the safer route to Vault 87, Sticky will be left outside the door next to the hacked computer terminal. He won't join you in the vault search for the G.E.C.K. but will be the first to show up at Raven Rock after you have lost all your companions; with the amusing effect of the exit door opening and Sticky showing up with one of his random comments like "Are we there yet?"

Other interactions

 * If Sticky is wearing his party hat when the Lone Wanderer initiates conversation, the player character will have the dialogue option "What's with the party hat?". Choosing this option will cause him to give you the hat, as he says he doesn't "want it anymore".
 * The entire time you escort him to Big Town, he will attempt to "entertain" you with insane stories and prattle. With a successful Speech attempt, you may get him to stop the annoying chatter.
 * If you take him to Big Town after completing the quest Big Trouble in Big Town with the "Small Guns" option (teaching the townsfolk to defend themselves), then he will eventually comment that Big Town seemed like a bad place to live, but the fact that you helped the townsfolk means it's getting better.
 * If you escort him to Big Town but haven't done "Big Trouble in Big Town" yet, the other residents will tell you that Red has been kidnapped by super mutants, but Sticky is not to be told because it will upset him.
