The Cool TF2 Facts Blog!

The character behind this blog is Emily (she/her), a literal living corpse of an old woman and also the Administrator’s mother. Her job is to record the daily activities, interactions, and facts about the mercenaries, and she does so in the form of a fun, interactive blog.
The actual person playing this character is a nonbinary lesbian named MC (she/they).
Over 50 years ago, Helen (the Administrator) buried her deceased mother Emily and assumed her job shortly afterwards. Present day, Emily inexplicably rose from her grave with no warning, though she was not the same woman she once was. Helen, unsure of what to do with her mother, left her at the mercenaries’ base site and tasked her with looking after the men when she couldn’t. Consequently, Emily befriended the mercenaries and began making records of the things they told her, and the things she personally observed. Those records are now public and put on a blog for fans of the mercenaries to see.
interactions with the mercenaries, any other canon TF2 characters, and with Emily are tagged as “lore”any facts or asks involving food are tagged as “food”body horror, blood, etc. will be tagged accordingly. If you need something to be tagged, feel free to send an ask or a direct messagethis blog does not post NSFW content, but suggestive humor will be tagged as “suggestive”. On that note, please do not send NSFW asks, it’s not that kind of blog.
This also is not a self-ship blog, but asking to interact with the mercs in affectionate ways (hugs, kisses, etc.) is fine.
