I’m not sure if it helps or not that my ADHD-wormed brain hops from idea to idea fast enough that none of my characters ever escape my brain. Are they truly “reused” if they were never truly “used” in the first place?
Now that you mention this, in combo with the mounted rings on isobels suit, im reminded of the audiobook Brigador: in smaller mech of the setting they have elastic straps that should make it more comfortable to control, but the hardcore pilots dont use them. So it /could/ be somewhat compliant :D
