RCS: Hah.
RCS: ...
RCS: Oh well. Guess my creators were right.

@storyknitter she will take that hug, thank you.
@shynmighty It sort of depends on the character? There hasn’t been any major positive payoff yet, but it’s not as rough for all my kids as it is Jaaide. I have.... five Imp toons caught up or close to it, all of them are saboteurs. (I got ramble-y, so readmore time!)
Eisza and Xander are both Hunters, and it’s not really affecting them much. They didn’t have a strong affiliation with either faction prior(Eisza frankly was getting annoyed at every time an Imperial/Sith acted like she was loyal to them just bc she worked with them). Eisza’s loyalty is to herself and the people she cares about first and everyone else second, so since she’s romancing Theron going Pub was an easy choice for her, lol. Xander I think it stemmed from his annoyance that Acina went behind his back about Iokath and since working with the Republic went so well he just made it permanent(also the only Sith he’s ever met who seemed rational is the one he married Lana SO).
Sha’reii and Tragen are both Sith-by-circumstance who may as well be Jedi(Light V woooooooo), but have been disguising their true natures basically their whole lives. They’re sort of... resigned to it always being the case(Tragen’s not handling it as well as Sha’reii; he’s getting tired of pretending, too, just not as bad as Jaaide), and just do what they can to minimize casualties and help the Republic much as they can without blowing their cover, holding on to that hope there will be an end.
Jaaide... it’s more being tired of pretending she’s a Loyal Imperial Citizen when the entire Empire turns her stomach not that she’s seen the true nature. She’s tired of lying, tired of killing people she wants so badly to help, tired of everything. She joined Intelligence as a shiny, freshly minted patriot and spent the entire class story having the shine ground off. She felt betrayed and disillusioned after everything in act 2, and honestly if she could’ve jumped ship there and gone with Kothe she would’ve. But she had to go back and Pretend it was all fine and Yes Sir I can deal with this and smile like she hadn’t been used and betrayed by the very institution she was trying to protect. For being too good at her job, no less. She only stuck around to deal with the Star Cabal and then when she tried to defect at the end Kothe told to go back and shore up her contacts and he’d be in touch and she wanted to scream No I’m DONE take me with you but she didn’t bc something something more useful inside. The Alliance felt like an escape, for a while, but of course all good things come to an end. She desperately wants to openly support the Republic, but has been shoved right back into playacting the Good Little Imperial Spy. She’s a double agent, again, for the third time in her life, and this time there’s no end in sight and she’s killing the people she wants to help, and she can’t let anyone know except Theron and Lana and when she slips up bc of all the Pressure he still yells at her for not doing enough(:))))) ) and it’s too much and she wants out.
So yeah, she’s not handling it well, on the verge of a breakdown, but that’s more character flavor from me developing her than anything in the game(She’s been a double agent off and one for almost two decades, she is so unbelievably tired). She’s not even one of my canon Outlanders to spare her from this; I think she’d fit in Tragen’s universe as an Intelligence asset so she still meets/works with Theron, their romance just gets a later start.
There have been some cool moments for a saboteur(like recruiting Wo Kasta for the Republic on Manaan), but there hasn’t been a big enough payoff or hint of light at the end of the tunnel for her, so it’s just very OOOF whenever I play her through story stuff. OH. and if you ever play an Imp saboteur, take the LS dialogue rather than the saboteur one at the beginning of the MEridian Complex flashpoint :))) Learned that one the hard way.(least I got fic out of it?)

One thing which genuinely bothers me is Annabeth's perception in the fandom. How she's seen as this cold, stoic, emotionless, reserved and intimidating girl. When in reality, she's a character full of love.
Annabeth, who immediately cried and felt attached to Cerberus after playing with him for a few minutes because she wouldn't get to play with him again.
Annabeth, whose deepest desire, which the Sirens lured her with, is saving Luke and having a good relationship with both her parents.
Annabeth, who believed in Luke's goodness, even after all the countless terrible things he did simply because she had faith in his humanity.
Annabeth, who cried in Percy's arms before entering the labyrinth and refused to reveal the last line of the prophecy because it said to lose a love worse than death and the idea of losing any of her friends is too painful, heartbreaking and worse than dying.
Annabeth, who kissed Percy before parting with him in St. Helens because if he's going to die, she at least wants him to die knowing she loved him.
Annabeth, who took a poisoned knife for Percy during the war because she'd rather die herself than let him die.
Annabeth, who convinced Luke to switch sides by reminding him of the promise of family he gave her. Which in turn, influenced Luke's decision to end himself to destroy Kronos. Hello, she saved the world with the power of love.
Annabeth, who spent months after months losing sleep and searching desperately for Percy when he went missing.
Annabeth, who kissed Percy to eternity in public at their reunion, not caring what anyone is going to say or think. An asteroid could've hit the earth, and she wouldn't have cared.
Annabeth, who told Percy “I love you” when falling in Tartarus because if she was going to die, she wanted them to be her last words.
Annabeth Chase is a sweetheart, who has always felt things deeply and she's so full of love. And I think it's time we let go of the “cold-hearted annabeth” headcanon because it's not true, that's not her.
