"I know you guys aren't exactly thrilled to be having someone like me hanging around. And I get it. I understand, believe me, I do. But... I believe this city has way bigger problems than a group of edgerunners who stole an already stolen AV from one of the most violent gangs currently around." "We didn't steal anything." "Heh, right, of course, I forgot. Allegedly stole, then. ...Look, I just... All I really want is to keep the people of this city as safe as possible. Call me crazy, call me naive, I probably am. But I'm still gonna try, and that's my main goal. So as long as you guys don't go, like, carpet bombing random buildings, I think we'll work just fine."
Background time! The GM who runs the Cyberpunk RED game in which I play Fiver, my Fixer, also runs another Cyberpunk RED game that takes place at the same time in universe, and soooo seeing as it actually didn't affect my schedule at all, I joined that game as well!
Thus was born (Officer) Washington Winters, a rookie Lawman for the Night City Police. It could be argued that he's way too pretty to be a cop, and he would laugh and wink and agree that he has far more beauty than brains. But behind that pretty face and charming demeanour is a young man who does earnestly want to keep people safe.
Lord knows he never feels safe
Also, he has two kid sisters, and admittedly probably one of the darkest backstories I've ever conceputalised for a character ^-^'
The BIGGEST of thank yous goes to @andengeu for bringing my latest son to life! They seriously perfectly captured Wash's build, look, and gentle demeanour, I love it so much. Go and support the artist!
