That looks great on you. You look so strong even from the back!

I had a fellow rook betray me earlier and it was heartbreaking. I feel this.

I don't even go after runners when solo or rook. Even if I get shot at I try to run first instead of fight... but try to fight me at exfil? Yeah no. We could have shared the beacon but you had to be greedy.

So I've tried solo runs today to complete contracts and just had the funniest thing happen.

Some jackwagon decided to camp my exfil from some far away catwalks. Tried shooting me as the countdown was going off.

I downed him instead.

Didn't even go for the loot because I needed to exfil.

Okay so playing as Rook on Dire Marsh is making me tons of credits.

Did have a runner shoot at me but they seemed uninterested in chasing me. Perhaps because I literally said "I'm just a rook! I don't want to hurt you! Leave me alone!"

Whoever that was... thank you!

REAL. Dire Marsh is a big struggle right now especially. Part of me
just wants to chill on perimeter forever.

Why in Marathon do people always seem to be most aggressive when you have literally nothing good on you.

Like. What are you getting out of my free kit that I'm using to unlock skins?

Yeah like... I'll tag a just a non suggestive shirtless photos but then there's those people.

Also I was parked when I took this. Don't drive distracted!

First day of the year for the spring rain jacket (and yes I'm wearing shorts).

This happens to me with someone at the range who I'm 99% sure is also queer.

It's like the mask not only drops but it shatters all over the floor.

He routinely demands them at around this time of day and will actually bite me (not hard enough to pierce skin) if I remain at my computer desk.

I think he's enforcing a bed time on me.

Basically, any day can start off sour, but then turn out okay and that was today for me in a nutshell.

4. Watched an episode of Shetland to chill a little bit.

5. Have had a few successful runs with randos in Marathon, including defeating a warden once.

6. Having a little lie down with Chester before continuing Marathon maybe. (Still looking to crew up with ppl btw!)

Today I:

1. Forgot my archery clothing bag at home.

2. Felt really useful at work, dealt with a minor emergency and handled it fairly well. Did a little OT on the issue too so I couldn't have gone to the range anyway.

3. Watched Ep. 9 of The Pitt S2.

Found out that I placed 11/17 in my category in that provincial tournament I did earlier in February.

Do I wish I placed higher? Absolutely.

Is that still good considering I only have just about 1 + 1/3 years experience? Also yes.

I scored higher than two of my club's comp ppl in my category too.

Oops, forgot my clothing bag for archery at home.

Guess I will have to go right home after work, what a tragedy.

I will do some at home exercises though which I really should do more of anyway, and lighter weeks are needed sometimes.

I hope they shrink just a little in the wash though! Hopefully they'll be good for the archery range. Maybe summer fashion too.

So I ended up having a few good runs. Guess the initial opening day rush had matchmaking all over the place.

Ended up buying a cosmetic too just because I love Blackbird (Recon) so much and that skin is just 🔥

Got these shorts on a deal, a little baggy but I like them. What do you all think?

Also feeling my upper body here. I need to do more work off the bow but archery is changing things slowly.

I'm going to watch it tomorrow. I got sucked into Tau Ceti IV a little tonight 😂

Congrats on surviving those cursed tests. Belly rubs definitely deserved.

Well killing me is a bad way to go about it then. Extremely rude. 😂

Okay yeah. WTF. Every game it's like five teams are on us for no reason.
