Talon Mercy

I mean… There’s a million-and-one-times-infinity designs of this idea. But then the idea came up for a work video, and my manager wanted me to make some custom art for the thumbnail.

Now, I have a Talon!Mercy drawing to add to the pile. :)

“Doc–Angela”.

She remembered.  Plenty of times she had asked her not to call her with her title. They were friends, after all, were they not? It felt strange, to not use honorifics with the members of the initiative, but she was family now –or, she had made feel like such by some of the people there. Angela was one of those. And, to hear her company was wanted and appreciated between someone who she did not expected to befriend was…formidable, to say at least. 

“But of course!” the invitation for tea was appreciated. A break was quite needed. “It has been quite some time, and I am sure there are lots of things we need to discuss. Ah, that reminds me –I have something to give you, but it is on my workspace. Later today I shall bring you what I got for you sometime ago”.

Hearing her call her by name was its own feeling of warmth, but she’d keep that to herself. Smiling as the scientist spoke, there was a soft clapping of her hands to hearing that they’d indeed be going out to tea together. True be it that they were both professionals (quite possibly in the highest degree in each of their respectable areas), but dear powers to be, did that not put more cause for breathers?

Nah. They were both workaholics. But, still.

“ Oh, a thing for me? Work related? ” she asked, walking towards the nearest exit aside Satya. “And do you have any preferences on the place to go? I just know of a place down the street, nothing real fancy, but their coffees and teas are exquisite. ”

It hadn’t been long ago that word had begun spreading of Dr. Ziegler’s return and his heart swelled with hope and yearning. Things simply hadn’t been the same since her departure. Thanks to her influence, the others had treated him kindly enough in her absence … but he had missed their talks and snuggles. Her soft hands and her gentle eyes. He wouldn’t believe it and get his hopes up until he’d seen her with his own eyes. Sure enough, as he walked through the door of that long-empty office … there she was, settling right back in. His tail began to wag uncontrollably, swiftly crossing the room to snatch Angela up in his large furry arms, hugging her as gently as he could. “Angie, dear, ain’t you a sight for sore eyes! Was startin’ t’think you weren’t comin’ back.” He softly pressed the tip of his tongue against her cheek in a gentle chaste kiss. “Wot finally brought you back?”

Giggling as her feet left the floor, she hugged around his large neck, a strong feeling of comfort washing over her much smaller form. She could see that tail wagging from this vantage point, and the sight caused her to piggyback another chortle upon her laugh.

“ Oh please, and leave you here without ample belly rubs? ” she replied, the eye above the cheek he smooched closing as the contact happened. He was given a kiss to his snout back, all in kind, but her fingers went to the place behind his ear to give the fur there a good scratching with her nails.

“ Have you been a good boy while I was gone, or am I in for a few stories, hm? ” she grinned.

Worked on this girl for 9 months. Now this new music video comes out and she’s immensely popular, arguably one of the most popular characters in the LoL universe.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m really glad she’s a huge hit, it’s super exciting to see so many people love the character design and the gameplay, and know that I contributed directly and significantly to the behind-the-scenes engineering that makes it all work. It’s validating.

But it’s also so fucking melancholy to know I did so much work and put in so much time for such a shitty company, run by shitty people, and the reward I got for it was unemployment. 

I threw a lot into this character. I cried at work. I started getting panic attacks, which I’ve never gotten before. I developed persistent heart palpitations from the daily overwhelming stress and had to go to the hospital (this is true, seriously.) I basically dropped all my friends outside of work. My manager (and his manager!) lied to me constantly to keep me working. They said I was doing a great job but to keep it up. Don’t worry, it’s going to turn out great, and it’ll all be worth it in the end – recognition, a raise, probably a promotion in short order. They promised me the world. When she was finally finished, I didn’t even get to go to the release party, they just walked me out. 

I remember a quote from my last day, it sticks out in my mind: “I know you realize this is really hard for me,” my manager said. Yes, in the end, when he awkwardly informed me I didn’t have my dream job anymore – or any job at all – and then stared back at my shell-shocked face, my thousand-yard stare, the only thing he felt was sorry for himself.

She launched with no major bugs and was considered a technical success. Doesn’t matter. Get the fuck out.

I don’t know how I feel. A weird sensation of pride and intense bitterness. I did a good job; at least, I think I did. Unfortunately, internal validation is the only kind I’m going to get.

Everyone reposting KDA should see this. Riot has successfully distracted everyone into forgetting their culture of sexism, exploitation, and toxicity mere months after it was all revealed.

Look, I get it. Akali is EXTREMELY my type. It’s obvious how much love and care was put into her development. But it makes me furious to see all the free advertising that Riot is getting from people who I thought would know better.  And now? One of the people who is arguably responsible for all that free advertising? Who’s work is undoubtedly making Riot hundreds of thousands of dollars a day? Who was overworked to the point of near breaking? They get nothing. WORSE than the scant bit of credit that most devs can get in a big company like Riot. They got let go.

Fuck Riot Games.

One thing that I thought really sucked a lot is that the production company who made the KDA video isn’t even credited. They credit a lot of other people on their videos, usually, but the actual animators of the video are hidden; almost a lie by omission. At best it’s a honest mistake, at worst it’s sneakily trying to pass off the video as something made in-house when it’s not. :(
