THIS IS AN INTRO [INT. MY COMPUTER, THREE WEEKS AGO] me: do u know what this game needs me: a complete asshole shay: no
SUP NERDS, this is rian, with #4!! i will try to be brief. ha ha ha. funny joke.
this is amanda hemingway, daughter of noah hemingway/nitros and one of the engineers on the singapore sling. personality-wise, she is kind of a dick! and by kind of i mean entirely! she doesn't really care about other people's feelings, for the most part, actively fucks with people on the network, has exactly zero patience for anyone's sob stories and will 100% call people out if they're being too emotional (i.e. displaying anything but vague, possibly drunken disdain) in public. this includes people she should absolutely not call out but like...what is propriety. what are social rules! if u guessed this is because she has had a fucked up life and can't form adequate emotional connections and doesn't know how to deal with her own inner shit, u would be right.
her history, in brief: she grew up on mars, and her dad was basically absent for much of her childhood, with amanda eventually giving up hope—and then getting surly—about it in her teens. she fell in with the wrong crowd, clawed herself out of it by painting (which she was very good at), was attacked at 19 which ruined her hands and destroyed her art career, fell in with the wrong crowd again, developed a drinking problem, got knocked up, terminated it, got her life mostly together, and joined the RAC, THE END. she is extremely competitive and antagonistic with her father, but she loves him. but also hates him?? it's complicated. they drink a lot. she also likes and appreciates her crew, even though she can veer WAY too much into "tough love" territory with them and usually needs to be reeled back in. the one exception is her captain, because amanda is 100% loyal to her *___*
THINGS I WANT: lol ppl who hate her. i imagine this is most people. she's awful! people who can put up with her—she's not all bad through and through, and she does have soft spots for people that develop over time. people who actually like her! for some! reason!!! SS CREW!!!!! lmao she loves whistle so much, i'm sorry in advance, tony, she will fight everyone for this kid. she's fairly ambivalent towards other engineers, mostly because she views what she does just as a job and not some higher calling or mystical ability she has, and she has no patience for people who say things like "ship-whispering" (except whistle). people who she develop relationships with over time!! she's fairly new—only on the SS since 2070, and i imagine her first year she was kind of antisocial, so there's plenty of room there. um...i don't know.... i'm sorry in advance for her u guys...i'm so sorry
