Howdy! (thematically appropriate greeting, go!)
It's Seb again, with a minor apology
and a new character. I've been dealing with a Surprise Arthritis Flare for the past couple of weeks which has taken up my time with new hospital appointments and not being able to walk very well - rest assured I
am still here and absolutely down for new plots, just struggling a little with the anxiety of missing stuff and not knowing if I'm pushing in on stuff or not! It's totally me, I just desperately don't want to annoy anybody by being over-eager djkfdjkh. Jim's a host this week and if anybody wants anything with him, kick me wherever you want to talk!!
As for new characters, I'm dragging in Hana Song from Overwatch, because I've always loved her and I haven't had the chance to properly play her before. She's a MEKA pilot with the Korean army - essentially only fighting robots that are trying to destroy the city, for reasons the Overwatch lore hasn't deigned to inform us yet. I'm kinda hoping with the release of OW2 we're actually going to get
more lore for the universe and I'll be able to canon update her later down the road at some point but as of right now, she's coming directly post-the comic where she was recruited by Overwatch to work with them.
On the surface, she's peppy, bright and cocky about her skills in both piloting and gaming, both of which are very warranted - she was recruited
because she was one of the world champions in a game called Mecha Guardian V, but she dabbles in pretty much all kinds of games and almost definitely has a Stardew Valley equivalent programmed into her mech that she plays on her downtime. Under the surface of all of that, though, she's a pretty damaged person who was thrust into a position of holding up an entire country's morale with just her and a few friends and my
god, the pressure is killing her. It might do her some good to get away from that for a while.
