Work Text:
Natalie didn't know how she didn't realise it earlier.
The games were and are so important to her. But for different reasons. Originally it was because of her papa, their work in on the ring, because of how long she spent on the maps, because of the loot mrvns her only friends at the time.
Now it was because of the legends her friends, the people she fights beside, the people she works beside, the people who found crying under her table after papa died.
The person who treated her like his kid, no matter how bad people saw him as. The man who let her be the only other person aloud in his work area in King's canyon. The person who always has a mug of some bevarge in his hands.
The person who was like a mother to her. The person who often forgot what she was doing mid task. The person who everyone agreed was like a mother to them all. The person who would help her after she has a nightmare.
The person who was one of her best friends. The person who was a ghost. The person who cared for her. One of two people she trust with her life.
The person who was like a brother to her. The person who's head was always staring at a screen. The person who lied, but no longer to her. The other person she trust with her life.
The person who annoys her, yet their still friends. The person who is only a year younger than her. The person who is so rude, yet still kind.
Caustic, Horizon, Wraith, Crypto, Rampart. Dr.Nox, Dr. Summers, Renee, Tae Joon Park, Ramya. The people who she sees as family.
