Lore I Guess?? - Tumblr Posts
honestly the confusion over exactly WHOSE souls got snatched did get me confused for the exact same reasons you said above. Honestly I keep trying to rewrite this and the "plothole" is full of contradictions.
Medic now has 9 souls - so he had to get at least a full team of mercenaries (made up of 8 others) to get that number - and reading the comics it's implied he stole them from his original team, but that still doesn't explain why both Sniper and Scout went to "heaven" because usually only souls would get there? Maybe it was some sort of stasis like in the "Sound of Medicine" MVM short that was released. (I think I saw a post a looooong time ago talking about that)
But as for the "pregnancy" thing, I don't want to give spoilers especially since the reading ahead was accident, but the person who actually got some use out of the baboon uterus was one of the "classic" mercenaries, The Heavy. (You were right!)
Another thing to do with the "pregnancy machine" that Redmond and Blutarch suggested before meeting Gray Mann was that it was for an heir....and in the comic "Ring of Fired" (1st one) Gray Mann shows up with a child. (And asks Saxton Hale to fight them).
How did he get the child?
I would like to think Medic had something to do with it, since a MACHINE was "a crime against nature" in his opinion.
(I realize now I went on a tangent and answered completely 0 questions
google: how to talk to people?)
wait did medic steal everyone souls as the ones he surgically implanted in himself and now the devil has to trick him out of them in 50 years time????
