Live and Love under Patooties' peculiar light
A little piece of heavenly, Emily’s an energetic girl with a persuasion that can convince almost anyone to do what she wants, and she uses this skill to make sure her friends do what she finds is best for them.
A fan of horror flicks, the supernatural and just about the generally disquieting, she finds it fun to solve mysteries and is eager to take on them at any time they show up.
She prefers to spend her time around Rosemary, Irene, Jocelyn, Melville, and the most recent addition to Stonewell’s: Phil.
The nerd of the bunch, Irene spends days on end discussing fan theories and headcanons with her online friends, making her an outcast among the orphans, who would rather spend their time doing other stuff rather than having to go through 2,000 pages-long stories that only get interesting after the first three volumes, or that go downhill after the second season, or that simply are too extended to know where to even start.
This geek has managed to get some of them involved though, and you can find her hanging around watching shows and movies or playing games with Cameron and Emily, reading comics with Melville, or smugly teasing the closet geek among them.
Korean teenager answers her pro Overwatch doubters with live demonstration of skill →
So I am very surprised people on Tumblr aren’t all over this news already, but here’s the rundown. A 17 year old girl in Korea was kicking ass in Overwatch (made it the eighth in the world) and two pro gamers accused her of hacking. So what did she do? Fucking proved them wrong. She demonstrated her skill on a live stream of a popular Korean streamer to show there was no cheating involved.
SHE WAS JUST THAT GOOD
It’s sad that she felt she had to wear a mask to hide her identity during the stream because she was afraid she would be targeted for online bullying. She even gets emotional at the end of the stream because this accusation had weighed so heavily on her.
The two “pro gamers” even threatened to quit playing if she was proved to be legit, but Blizzard stood behind her and let those two idiots walk away. I may not play Overwatch, but I know if there was a girl who did this in League, CS:GO, or any other online game she would be accused of the same thing.
Now I don’t usually post original content, but this is HUGE for online gaming. No one even batted an eye when Rekkles (Fnatic Marksman in LOL) started in the Pro League of Legends scene at 17,but this girl was targeted as a hacker. For Blizzard to stand behind her is an amazing development in the online gaming community and I hope everyone supports her whether they play Overwatch or not.
Good Job Blizzard. And thank you Gegury for being such a strong person and proving those assholes wrong.
The so-called “Pros” indeed quit. And nothing of value was lost. Also love the comments saying “but but but it wasn’t sexism, this happens to dudes!” Nah, man, I’m 90% sure part of what spurred them was the fact that she’s a teenage girl who beat the crap out of them.
… she’s just d.va i can’t believe this
D.Va literally appears irl, weaker gamers shrivel and flee from the sight.
So what you’re saying is, we’re only 2 years away from fighting wars with Korean mekas.

The youngest of the bunch, but not by much, Josie spends her time following the other orphans, much to the chagrin of many, who consider her to be too clingy and overt about some of the things she says.
She tends to go overboard with some of the stuff she does, but all of it is done with the best intentions.
She spends her time mostly with Gertrude who she admires as a foster sister, Robert, Melville and Emily.
You ever gonna get your sleep schedule normalized? -` _´-
As a one true bookworm, Melville spends most of the time with his face stuck to a book, with his preferred material being the natural sciences as well as stories featuring the principles he currently studies.
Being such a regular user of the library, he has extensive knowledge of the collection, and thus has become an assistant of sorts to Mr. Reese.
When not at the library, he usually can be seen hanging out with Irene, Howard, Rosemary and Robert.
The resident gardener, Rosemary is devoted to her little patch of flowers in the front yard as well as the potted ones she helps Angie grow in the greenhouse on the back of the orphanage. While flowers are her one true calling, she does also take interest in other plants, and has proven to have quite the green thumb when helping out in the garden.
She has a shy demeanor, preferring to spend her time alone and tending to her plants, but can be seen hanging out with some of the other kids from time to time, mainly with Emily, Robert, Melville and Jocelyn.
