About

Vault Girl's Water Chip Quest, also known by the line Excuse Me, How Much for That Water Chip, refers to an NSFW rule 34 animation by artist Suoiresnu featuring a female Vault Dweller from the original Fallout video game and loosely based on the game's premise of finding and obtaining a water chip. Released in May 2024, the video has since been a subject of bait-and-switch edits and other memes.

Origin

On May 28th, 2024, animator Suoiresnu posted an NSFW fan animation loosely based on the plot of the original Fallout game that features a female Vault Dweller, voiced by Pixie Willow, to their Patreon^[1] account.

In the video, the Vault Dweller is tasked with finding a replacement water chip for Vault 13. In need of money to afford the chip, the Dweller opts for becoming a prostitute, with most of the video showing the Dweller engaging in intercourse with human and non-human characters. The video ends with the Dweller presenting the vendor with the required sum, only to be told that the price went up and gladly accepting that she will have to spend more time in her line of work.

The female protagonist of the video has often been mistakenly referred to as Vault Girl, however, Vault Girl is an unrelated mascot character in the Fallout universe.

On May 28th, Suoiresnu shared a one-minute clip from the video on X,^[2] where it received over 12,000 reposts and 100,000 likes in one year. On June 27th, Suoiresnu uploaded the full video to X,^[3] with the post gaining over 16,000 reposts and 130,000 likes in one year (still image shown below).

On January 17th, 2025, X^[6] user @SenorMayorInt reposted the upload, with their post gaining over 14 million views, 1,900 reposts and 44,000 likes in four months.
