WAS NO ONE GONNA TELL ME THERES A WHOLE OTHER BATCH OF L4D SURVIVORS THAT ONLY JAPAN KNOWS ABOUT??? LIKE LOOK AT EM:
THEY HAVE NAMES AND EVERYTHING TOO- YUSUKE KUDO, HARUKA HIROSE, SARA KIRISHIMA AND BLAKE JORDAN.
First of all- THESE GUYS ARE SICK, I LOVE THEIR DESIGNS. Backstories for em- AWESOME. Will make a separate ramble on who plays what role (Like group pessimist or leader n stuff like that). ALSO THEY HAVE MORE THAN ONE WOMAN ON THE SQUAD (I also take fault in that, I made and posted my L4D3 fic back when I was a baby author) SO FUCK YEAH.
And Blake. Just. Blake. The fucking token white guy they added. LITERALLY EVERYONE ELSE IS JAPANESE AND THEN YOU HAVE HIM. No disrespect to Blake, he’s a 10/10 on my book simply because his main concern is HIS OWN DOG WHO HE LEFT BEHINDDDD
FUUUCK IM SUPPOSED TO BE WORKING ON THE BSAA ASK BLOG BUT L4D HAS ME BY THE NONEXISTENT BALLS
VALVE GIVE THESE GUYS THEIR OWN CAMPAIGNS AND GIVE THEM TO US AMERICANS PLEASE I NEED MORE OTHERWISE L4D3 IS GONNA BE THE BIGGEST CROSSOVER FIC IN THE L4D TAG
Welp, since Valve has basically let these guys go to the wayside, I’m using lost media logic to claim “MY CANON NOW” and ramble about my headcanons for these lil guys. Please reblog or comment your own ideas, I crave ideas because I plan on adding these guys into my own L4D3 fic!
