Talk:Rivers Rosa

Rivers will probably get lore about her arrival to the Tacos eventually, but for now, she's relevant several times over on the new-but-long-anticipated wormwolf Wanda Schenn IRM. (Wanda's talk page, where the full text can be found: https://www.blaseball.wiki/w/Talk:Wanda_Schenn)

• On Wanda's arrival to Chicago: "At the end of Season 13, NaN encountered Schenn, who (choose:was burning up with some unnatural, strangely fire-like fever|had apparently encountered some sort of demon in the depths of Ohio and was in a bad way, fire coursing through their veins). The Worms expressed concern about her, and NaN, for whom this was on their route, offered to take her to Chicago and see if anyone there could help. Rivers Rosa was the first to encounter them, and offered her assistance immediately(choose:.|, aware of the potential consequences.|, making a deal with Mx. Chicago to save Schenn's life from whatever this was.) As a result, Schenn was added to the Firefighters roster."
• On their time in Chicago: "Despite Rosa's role in Schenn's arrival to Chicago, in the short time when both were on the team before Rosa swapped with NaN (the same player Schenn was traded for), they did not talk much."
• But they reunited in Los Angeli: "Despite not having been close with Rosa in Chicago, Schenn and Rosa became friends in LA."

we did it, y'all! the worms lored about rivers rosa! i have the complete write-up linked here.

in summary, rivers worked with the museum with safety protocols, fought the cuyahoga river in her spare time, and became friends with cantus hojo and farrell seagull.

i would also like to formally request changing the language from present tense to past tense. no offense, ffs, but as somebody who speaks english as a second language, the inconsistency in tenses stresses me out. i hate it (affectionate).

Looks great! I am in support of the tense change for the existing wiki page

I'm definitely in support of changing tense for the Chicago section of the article! However, I wonder if it makes more sense to say things like "Rosa currently resides [x place]" and similar present tense statements in the updated section? I love the content and I'm delighted about the river fire tidbit especially! The only things I would change would taking those kinds of past-tense statements (which feel more fictionalized in tone) and formatting them like the "trans icon and state fielder" comments on the existing article - after all, her jersey number is currently, as the game is being played, 331, and she presumably still does love Ohio.

However, I only bring that up because you asked about tense in the first place! This otherwise looks great!

Hello! I'm here to pass on the changes the Firefighters workshopped for Rivers over Siesta. These are just some tweaks to her original article to be copied over, since there's a few early lore tidbits that needed altering (partly for being outdated, such as the Twin Roses bullet point) and some information on her culture and backstory the team wanted to add. We also removed the Son Scotch reference on request of the Spies wiki liason! Here is the document: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1WK2SxaJEh5JpOlK8KMqOTgWvsZGRW6L9lJrqIGh26p8/edit?usp=sharing
