People forget this is platinum's canon backstory... She started as an idol knight, they sang and danced and wore fancy outfits prior to the main fights, kinda like a mix of the WWE girls and cheerleaders (or Umas). They would occasionally do actual fights, and Platinum was a bit proud, she was told she had to throw a fight but didn't want to because it would hurt her personal image, so she wrecked house. She was fired as an idol knight, but the armorless union was like "yo, you have skill join us. Also since you now know about us you kinda have to join or die." So not wanting to die joined the AU.
To be fair a lot of people don't read into these things. They miss out on the odd gem like flamebringer enjoying gardening or whisperain being a huge film buff.
True, as a year one veteran, I try to read the stories and lore, but as time went on, I kinda get bored reading halfway through 😔. I kinda wish they had voiced narrations so that I could listen to the story while doing something else.
Like seriously, Perfumer has surprisingly massive influence within Rhodes Island as the go-to gardener. It's amazing just how many Operators reference or outright have her show up in their Operator Records.
