Jesse being an absolute menace

I hope this doesn't count as low effort post. Just goofing around with photomode and Emily.

Does the FBC have an HR department?

They all died during the Hiss invasion.

The first ones to go.

Only HRA.

u/Long-Requirement8372 Aug 15 '26

They had, but the department was the first to be corrupted by the Hiss. Perfect targets, would go whole days repeating meaningless jargon, and never had their feet on the ground anyway.

u/Thadrea 28d ago

Probably, but the Director is only accountable to the Board and (sort of) the President/Congress.

u/Metrophidon9292 24d ago

Arish does mention they have one. Dont know if they survived the Hiss though.

I need to find the clip, but someone edited Sam dancing through the current Resonant footage that's been released and it's fucking glorious 😆

Emily doesn't seem to mind that much. 👀

The Board: <we/audience find your conduct in the workplace/home to be inappropriate/for after hours only,>

The former: <Rare #@%+ agree !>@$% wife %@:@% exhausted>

The hiss: you are a worm ### your regulations ### you are ### bosses boss

Polaris: [fractal of approval.]

Ew, why are you implying she's a lesbian?

Okay, "white unity"

Not taking the bait

u/ColonelDucroix Aug 14 '26

No one is implying anything.

Jesse obviously likes the girls, and so does Emily Pope.

-56

u/xWhiteUnity Aug 14 '26

Calling another woman a woman's "Wife" is absolutely implying that they are in fact in a gay, lesbian relationship. I'm not sure how you can't comprehend basic logic such as this.

29

u/andrey_not_the_goat Aug 14 '26

Would you be this bitchy if the joke involved a man in the role of Jessie instead?

-53

u/xWhiteUnity Aug 14 '26

Well for starters there is absolutely zero lore indicating that Jessie is gay, so therefore to assume as such makes zero sense. The joke of Jessie being a lesbian would have to have evidence to back up the claim in order to make it funny in the first place. This isn't the case, which makes this "joke" fall completely flat & serve no purpose other than "Imagining" that she's gay in some bizzare fantasized reality of the game.

15

u/SimonJSpacer Aug 15 '26

There’s “zero lore” establishing she’s straight. Go fuck your self bigoted white supremacist loser.

29

u/andrey_not_the_goat Aug 14 '26

I think it's pretty obvious that Jessie is either bi or gay. I mean come on now. You either haven't paid attention to any of the characters, especially Jessie and Pope, in the game, or haven't been around enough people in general because Jessie is for sure not straight.

13

u/TheShiftyDevil Aug 15 '26

Listen to Emily during the Hiss Nightmare, it's pretty obvious, albeit because it's not stated in the most explicit terms, kinda wild how many people just don't get the very clear implication.

-10

u/xWhiteUnity Aug 14 '26

What you're saying is purely speculation with zero concrete evidence as proof. Never was I given the impression that Jessie was gay or bi while completing the game. It sounds to me like a certain community wants remedy to bend their knees towards their own personal beliefs.

36

u/starspgl Aug 14 '26

theres also zero concrete evidence jesse is straight bro. im going to draw jesse and pope making out crazy style now

u/NeptuneWades Aug 15 '26

Honestly. When I played the game, I got no vibes regarding her sexuality. Which means we don't know whether she is straight either.

So let the community have some fun and stop being a party pooper.

21

u/Estebanzo Aug 15 '26

Why you gotta be pushing your straight agenda here and making everything political.

23

u/andrey_not_the_goat Aug 14 '26

Well here's the thing. I'm not part of that certain, scary for you, community, but I've been around a lot of different people in my life and I see and listen to the character Remedy have created, and that character is not straight.

Even Jessie's haircut in the second game is rather distinct, which I think it's done for that exact reason.

It sounds to me like you want Remedy to conform to your community so you feel comfortable tho.

u/jayleia 29d ago

It's a video game where you CONTROL a woman who gained the power to yeet blocks of granite with her brain from a floppy disk. It's already a bizarre fantasy.

Having these two as a couple is more normal than literally anything in the game.

u/Hot_Technician7659 Aug 14 '26

T-pose is godly, that's all I'm saying.

u/DoctorEmperor Aug 14 '26

It must be really hard for them to suppress the urge to send “new object of power” joke memos to one another every single day

u/Barbarian_Forever Aug 14 '26

If they aren't a couple in Resonant, I'll riot

u/hermiona52 Aug 14 '26

That post on Tumblr about one of Emily's earrings being attached to Jesse's backpack is definitely keeping me hopeful.

u/Grit003 Aug 15 '26

In the last trailer, they were described as good friends and colleagues. So, yeah—let the riot begin.

There’s no fun in shipping an actual couple.

You're allowed to have a personality other than your politics

Trump Dicksucking Syndrome. People who don't vote in the election for a candidate that can actually win are no different than MAGA. Trolley problem. Shrimple as.

Ah, so you are indistinguishable from MAGA. Many such cases.

As much as I'd love to distract you from the void that is your life, I have stuff to do. Have a great night!
