Pulse 382 (Patreon)

I have to be careful with Charlotte, the cast is already so female, I have to try to give her a unique place and personality among the cast.

When Annie and Tabitha both have upgraded suits, they'll be C-class- and instead of two person teams, they have to be on three person teams.  Charlotte here will be their third, but not until after they've competed with the other girls and each of them gets a special power out of it.

I don't know if this is a weird way to introduce Charlotte, that most of the cast already knows her.  But anyone who read the old Pulse would know her, and this seemed like the best way to introduce her in a way that wouldn't be repeating the old comic.

When I started the comic, I wanted her best friends to be Charlotte and Lucy.  BUT I thought the comic should start with only one of them, and then bring in the other later.  Lucy seemed like the obvious choice to start with, considering she'd be Annie's civilian friend.
