Aight so, since it's only a matter of when people start writing fics about the protoframes, I wanna make something clear about Lettie's profession so she hopefully doesn't get the Overwatch Mercy treatment.
Have any of yall ever met a combat medic? Like, a real, military combat medic. I have, and there are 2 very important things I have learned about them that you should know:
1) They are the saltiest motherfuckers on earth when you give them a reason to have to do their jobs (when it's not urgent). You gotta be tough as nails to be willing and able to be a combat medic, and none of the ones I've met were known to suffer fools (of which, they'll happily tell you, there are many). They're not unkind, they just have a low tolerance for bullshit. God help you if you come to them needing medical attention because you did something stupid; medics have some fuckin stories about dumb shit they've had to treat patients for.
2) They will run into the jaws of hell and snatch you right out of the Grim Reaper's hands. Their troops may be idiots, but they're their idiots, and they will make sure the enemy and death itself have to fight them tooth and nail for their patient. There's a good goddamn reason why the Marines, who famously hate being reminded the USMC is part of the Navy, respect their corpsman (Navy medic embedded with Marines) as much as they do.
SO. Can we please do Lettie some justice? (Idk if she's the type, but the thought of her swearing like a sailor as she berates one of the Hex for crashing their Atomicycle while trying to do a barrel roll --after she specifically told them not to-- makes me laugh)
