Our Life 2: Mr. Yusuf (Step 2 Sketch)

We've got another new character for you to meet! You'll technically interact with him in Step 1 as an off-screen NPC with seemingly no importance, but once the next time period comes around he ends up as a staple member of the cast.

Mr. Yusuf works at, and then ultimately gains ownership, of the local diner that Opal and the MC begin to frequent after moving to Golden Grove.  He's laidback and humorous and knows a lot about a lot of things. It's always interesting to have a chat with Mr. Yusuf.

He was born intersex, was assigned female, and transitioned to male as an adult.

As someone who was born intersex, assigned female, and has transitioned to male as an adult myself, seeing representation like this means the WORLD to me. Thank you, from a very grateful 34 year old transman. -Adrian

Oh my God I already like him, I feel like he will be a great person to talk too, I already love his personality and like the description say I feel like it will be really interesting to talk with him. I feel like (this is based completely on the vibes he give me) the classic old man who smoke with you and help the "problematic teenager" who doesn't know what to do with life and always talk with them and almost behave like a dad in a way, but more kinda like Arcane with Vi and her adoptive dad. Not completely like them, a bit more carefree but still similiar to their relationship. Yes, this was a totally random idea based on his appearance and the vibes he gave me but nothing more. I'm not saying he's someone who smoke, that was just a side detail that I thought would fit lol The short version would be that I feel like he would be a kind of paternal figure for the MC and I would really like to become friend with him when I can.

hmmm im getting Tyrion vibes from the sketch. Also I may be a little uncomfortable with this character. How much is their background going to matter / be focused on in the story? Passing mention? Player option to be more curious about it or not?

Ach i forgot enter equals post here, neways I was going to add Im sure you are aware that this character could really be boundary pushing for alot of people. Im an older member of the lgbtq community myself, and still sometimes feel akward trying to understand the choices and the issues that revolve around both the individual living those choices and those around them. It can be a very thorny issue that stirs up a lot of emotions all over the place. And I should also offer an apology up front for those who feel offended by my even asking. For what its worth i sat here for almost 30 mins trying to decide if I should even ask or not. Im not trying to offend, but I also know that sometimes, intentions do not matter as much as how something is perceived / taken.
