The Surveillance Room - Attic.
Think stale tactical manuals, dusty VHS tapes, and a lingering scent of bad coffee. Margaret only gets clearance to enter when she's hauling supplies (mostly beer) or tidying up. It's essentially a glorified storage locker.
Hi everyone!
I'll keep this brief so I can get back to the grind:
Margaret's content is nearing the finish line. The animation and rendering pipeline turned into a bit of a marathon, but the motion feels much tighter now.
I tallied the last poll three days early. Here are the results:
Diana took the lead. Ready to get reckless?
Also, I'm sliding Meredith into this update as our third lady. I'm leaning toward making her appearance a repeatable event-either a movie night or a casual house party that sits outside the main story arc. Drop a vote below to let me know which direction you'd prefer. (Consider this a quick gut check rather than an official ballot.)
Typically, I'd use this third slot for a shorter, low-stakes scene just to keep the update cadence consistent. However, I've realized that fitting these segments into a "quick-update" format doesn't really do the narrative justice. It's a bit of a trap: when a character like Kelly is forced into a short, fragmented slot, it never hits the right beats, which only makes it harder to build their momentum later.
So, I'm breaking the pattern. I'm saving Kelly for the 0.3+ cycle, where I can give her the full, substantial arc she deserves, rather than a rushed cameo.
And, for this round, the roster is set: Margaret, Diana, and Meredith. Let me know what you think!
