One day, snacking on peanut butter, Teddy noticed and couldn't resist. I let him taste it, and he joyfully went wild. Since then, whenever I had peanut butter, he eagerly awaited his turn for its creamy delight. It became our little tradition, a moment of happiness and connection.

Seeing Teddy excitement taught me an important lesson: In the midst of life's challenges, it's the simple things, and the love of a dog, that reminds us of our vulnerability. Teddy's passion for licking peanut butter off my BBC taught me that strength encompasses more than just toughness, it embraces the tender moments and meaningful connections we forge.

In the face of challengers on my path, Teddy's memory resides within my heart reminding me to value the little pleasures, draw strength from vulnerability, and cherish the special bonds we form with those who truly understands us.

"Are you looking for a gunner? I'm looking for a ship! Here are my references!! Here are more references!! Here's my design for a whistling shell!! Here's my colleague!! (He'll stay on shore.) Here's my hand!!! Will you take it?"[1]

The Irrepressible Cannoneer is a gunner from the Iron Republic, who gets a little too excited about blowing stuff up.


Dangerously Delighted

"Cheery enthusiasm is a welcome, but unnerving, trait in a gunner."

When working with explosives, the Cannoneer's passion is unmatched by any other. While this behavior can be unnerving to some people, this does not deter the Cannoneer from collaborating with many engineers and inventors of the Neath. Although they were expelled from the University for supplying bombs to an unknown faction (implied to be revolutionaries),[2] they have worked with a wide range of people, ranging from the reclusive Heartmetal Smith of Station III,[3] to the Tittering Artificer of the Iron Republic.[4]

They once heard of an incident where Iron & Misery were testing a Red Science prototype that destroyed one of their outpost islands. Impressed by its potential destructive power, the Cannoneer planned to retrieve what remains of the prototype and refine it to construct a terrifying weapon.[5]

The Cannoneer holds a rivalry with the Tireless Mechanic, whom the Cannoneer considers a "dilettante". On the flipside, the Mechanic dismisses the Cannoneer as an "amateur."[6]
