North definitely wasn’t written in the best way but everything she does has a reason behind it

North is a Traci. Same as the Blue haired android from the Eden Club. In fact they pretty much have the same backstory-

“WR400 #641 790 831[North] was a WR400 "Traci" android designed to be a sexual partner. She worked at the Eden Club in Detroit. On October 4th, 2038, she accompanied a customer to his home. There she realized she could not take her existence anymore, strangled the client to death, and escaped.”

North

“She was a WR400 "Traci" android working at the Detroit Eden Club… On November 6, 2038, she was rented along with another Traci by Michael Graham. Graham was violent and broke the other Traci, making her fear and beg for her life. When Graham did not react, she strangled him to death, unintentionally.”

Blue Haired Traci

In any case, it’s safe to say North wasn’t treated very well by humans

Based on her own experiences and what she sees going on around her, she believes humans are violent

That they don’t see androids as people but just play things, to be thrown around and discarded whenever

North see this happening and decides that the only way to prove to humans that androids are alive is by fighting back

She thinks that shooting Simon is the right choice because she doesn’t want Jericho to be found out. The attack that happens later on is because Connor finds their location. North is trying to prevent that from happening

In the North Leader ending, she wants the other androids to keep fighting because even if they do end up dying, she hopes that this act will show just how determined androids are and move others to rise up and continue fighting until all androids are free

At the end of the day North just wants the best for other androids

Unpopular Opinion: North is overrated and horrible

all she does is kill humans and use Markus as a tool to get revenge on humans, manipulating him for most of the game, and she is a narcissistic sociopath who only thinks about herself, as shown in her Leader arc when she doesn't care about her people who are running away from their impending defeat "What are you doing?! Keep fighting!!" and when the android that looks like her dies crying after meeting her 10 minutes ago but has no problem shooting Simon in the face, people blindly defend her trying to justify all her actions when it's indefensible and in all her interactions and dialogues she presents herself for who she is, people call Gavin Reed "racist" when North is way worse in this regard, but most seem to ignore the fact that she only looks at her point of view, never anyone else's, as if she's suffered more than anyone else, which is what Zlatko's androids, Kara, Traci Hairy Blue and orange, Alice, Josh and Markus himself have done the most and are not like North, this is not an excuse and I'm so tired of these people sweeping the dust under the rug trying to ignore it.

If you want to like North, like her, but at least accept her for all her faults. She’s immature, selfish, manipulative and violent. So if you like that, then be proud of it, not trying to turn her into someone she obviously is not to suit your own ego.

The Stranding - Chp 77 - Plans and Partners

Uh oh, looks like I finally managed to get enough writing done that I'm satisfied enough to post. Honestly a miracle at this point.

https://archiveofourown.org/works/37129267/chapters/168714412

For some reason inserting the link seems to be broken? I'll try again in a second and see if that fixes it.

I'm happy with these scenes! This is one of the longer chapters I've posted for Stranding for sure, coming in just under 10k words. I can't guarantee with the way life is right now that I'll have the security to really stop and breathe and get more chapters out anytime soon, but please know that I'm doing my best to knock out what I can when I have the energy for it!

Thank you all so so much for reading, liking, commenting and so on. And again, massive massive thanks to everyone who has been sending me asks! I have a few in the queue right now I'm hoping to get to, but my brain needs a little bit of a rest for a bit <3

Much love, hope you all have a great week!

17. Dappled Pelt (pl: Runo Łaciate)

I think that she and Cloud Spots are bff 😁

I used to ship her with Tall Shadow pretty hard, but ever since my perception on Shadow's sexuality had changed (she's aroace to me), I stoped doing it. I still think they're great friends though!!!<3

Her name in Polish roughtly translates to "Speckled Wool/Fleece" so that's why she's so fluffy!

Connor reacting to the deviants he’s met in Jericho

Part 2

The Traci’s:

This one is a lot more subtle than Rupert’s. When he walks or stands nearby, Connor looks up at the Traci’s without the player’s input. I panned the camera up afterwards to see what he was looking at.

It’s unclear what’s going through his head, but he definitely notices them.

more headcanons idk

connor can js like always land on his feet. but only when like falling or sliding or smth, he can and will bump into a table n fall on his face. makes for some super cool superhero moves tho

markus loves the color orange. everyone finds him weird.

NO CLUE if ive said this before (probs have sorry), but markus can go from respected leader to leo manfred’s annoying little brother (can we PLEASE get more sibling relationship w these two? maybe? idk bug ask ig) with zero transition. like, “look out! the man who js have androids rights has js put a fake bug on ur pillow!” kinda shit idk

markus LOVES to push hank’s buttons. like, dude leave the poor grandpa alone!! thats ur bf’s dad (or bf/ex idfk u can decide that one)

jericrew has fallen asleep in a pile on top of eachother more than once!!!!!!!!!!

connor n simon were super awkward around each other at first lmao. simon was terrified that connor was gonna snap n kill everyone n connor was terrified that simon was gonna snap n take random children hostage. they, QUICKLY, realized that both of these thoughts were irrational. they r now v close

connor, the two tracis u see at the eden club, n rupert r all some weird little friend group. idk where i got this thought but i did!! n it wont leave!! please help!!

sometimes markus’ replacement parts will pop out random. android doctors i forgot the word, connor, simon, n KAMSKI have all tried n figure out whats wrong w him. absolutely nothing. it js happens. it has (more than once) happened in the middle of a v important meeting, n he scared the shit out of politicians

kara uses mom emojis if that makes sense

yes, im aware that hank’s technically a millennial, but looking at his birth yr hes so close to gen x he would have some of the same.. tendencies. “connor! how do u work this thing!” is probably top five most used phrases in the anderson household
