ITS THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT I SHOULDN'T BE DOING THIS
Wassup yall! This is my side blog for my oc lore and stuff so I can dump it here and keep it organized while my main; @puddles-and-pebbles will have my regular yadayadaya
Most posts will be connected towards my Team Fortress 2 ocs from the TF2 OC Space I'm often seen in (which I need to link the community here later on if I even will remember to)
Asks are open! Ask abt my tf2 ocs or something!
But uhhh yeah! Posts will include long* paragraphs of just straight oc lore and deeper info about them all and maybe I'll throw in some related art to it aswell if I'm in that mood.
*not very long but will still take more than 2 minutes to fully read and comprehend
Dont worry, Hacker's not the one gone. But someone before her was.
Short context summary (has missing bits but will make a full version... soon):
After escaping a cult in Sweden with her previous girlfriend, they traveled to the U.S. to start a new life.
After a few months of living there, Cleo's girlfriend was kidnapped by a suspected gang and declared dead despite the body not being found.
Even though Cleo herself was struggling to make ends meet, at overall devastation and had dreams/hallucinations of a body bag at her doorstep, she swore not to take her own life or avenge with crime if anything happened.
After consulting a therapist 5 years after and moving to work for BLU, entering a new relationship with Hacker was a lot more nerve-wracking in a way that Cleo doesn't want to lose another person she gets close with. Though the respawn machine exists and everybody is fine *now.
