“Never did like that much,” is a baller and superb way to express your irritation with the way the patriarchy refuses to acknowledge how badass you are.
Word.
Before World War I, she shot a cigarette out of the mouth of the Kaiser of Germany at his request.
After the war started she sent him a letter asking for another chance, as she was afraid her aim might’ve been a little off.

A couple of protagonists from the appleseed story, which I’ll now tag as pocket full of rye. I’ve decided these summoned spirits are not the historical figures themselves, but embodied ideals. So the gal here is a vague nod to Annie Oakley and other sharpshooters of the west. The actual Annie definitely wasn’t as frilly as this, but dangit I like decorative clothing. It’s also a smallish nod to the pink Annie from the SNES game Wild Guns.
The fella is a young warlock (Edison) that crossed the antagonist (previously mentioned witch), and as a result, was trapped in his animal shape (texas longhorn), mind-wiped and kept among the witch’s herd of cattle for several years, up until Annie freed him and restored his memories. He keeps his ear tag to remain focused on ending the witch, though Annie is only interested in breaking the bonds on her fellow spirit and close friend, Johnny.
