Love how tumblr has its own folk stories. Yeah the God of Arepo we’ve all heard the story and we all still cry about it. Yeah that one about the woman locked up for centuries finally getting free. That one about the witch who would marry anyone who could get her house key from her cat and it’s revealed she IS the cat after the narrator befriends the cat.

I have the first Fox Patol unit patch on my battle jacket.

When the Battletech Mercenaries kickstarter was live, my wife decided to make me a battle jacket so that I'd have an excuse to buy a bunch of the patches and pins for my factions, because she is the greatest. It's been close to a year, and the kickstarter is getting close to fulfillment, and she knew I was getting excited/ anxious/ impatient for the patches to be here, so she decided to surprise me with a custom patch for my favorite merc company that didn't make the cut in the kickstarter, The Fox Patrol!

She even did research on the pretty obscur unit to make it more special. See, I had commented that their official art looked a bit to Sea Fox-y to me once (just once), and she remembered that. She decided to change the colors on the patch to match unit's rust red and grey paint schemes they use on their mechs (my potato camera is making it look more white/pink than it appears IRL). She says the patch might be for a mechanic team or for drop ship crew.

My wife is not a Battletech fan. She's played a few games and painted a few mechs, but that's about the extent of it. So when she goes that deep just to make me happy, I know I married the right woman.
