i appreciate that entirely by accident the sole party member in this who is a white cis (arguably) straight male is performing the same narrative function in I/O as a femme fatale would in any other cyberpunk story

Ralph necessarily needs to be sus as hell and there's stuff he refuses to tell the party for what comes off as bullshit reasons

sexy lampman

I did this by accident but I kind of love it

Mrs Sheepie : "is he a sexy lamp, or is he going to betray us all during the pinch"

ahahaha god I love it

this thought brought to you by a draft of Ralph's expressions where he is definitely trustworthy

awe is like the only innocent expression there
