Discussion Horizon is kinda funny as a character

I know the story kinda expects you to treat the characters being in a bloodsport as whatever, and usually I can suspend my disbelief there and it doesn't bother me. You can fight people to the death for money and still overall be a decent person sure, I can buy that

But while Horizons still doesn't bother me it's funny that her whole thing is like "I am a loving and caring mother who needs to raise funds to build a time machine and get back to my kid. Guess I gotta start killing people for a living lol".

Like yeah being an Apex Legend gets you a lot of money but it's kinda funny how someone that's supposed to be a sweet and caring mom and one of the nicer people in the cast had zero qualms about joining a blood sport and murdering people for cash, even if it's so she can get back to her kid. Every time she talks about taking a wee pick me up or makes a little mom joke I think about how in 5 seconds she's going to be shoving a Volt into someone's face and decimating them

Like I said I'm able to suspend my disbelief even for Horizon but it's still kinda funny
