Does Mystik have a crush on Mirage?
So I have been writing that for a while here, and would like to explain my point:

If you look on the Book and Covers loading screen description, Crypto is writing to Mystik. He addresses one legend as “the one you love”. He then goes on to say he had no information and is an idiot. Crypto considers Mirage an idiot. It is implied that that legend is Mirage. Azzazin (talk) 12:23, 8 October 2019 (UTC)


 * I think it's meant more as the way people 'love' sports stars or celebrities or musicians or whatever. Mirage has a huge fanbase, I'm sure plenty of Frontier residents would say they love him. Jockshocker (talk) 22:45, 8 October 2019 (UTC)


 * This. A lot of people watch the Apex games like its a sport (just with murder). Metafysika (talk) 03:03, 9 October 2019 (UTC)


 * One Meta, it could be said that there is no murder in the Apex Games, you just die, Respawn in a drop ship, and do it all over again. Though I guess that could still be murder. That’s not important. Yes, but TJP (Crypto) addresses it as “the legend you love”. If Mystik was just a fan, it probably would have been addressed like “your favorite legend.” At least, that’s how I think most people would say it. Maybe they don’t. Many frontier residents would say they love him, but writing a letter to a those fans would be different. “The legend you like” “Your fav legend” “The best ever legend of all time” (I just put that last one in) Wouldn’t that make more sense if TJP meant that?

 * I'm not gonna discuss at length how respawning is just gameplay and not lore in here as its offtopic, but let's just say that the reason Gibby is in the games is because people do die there permanently. That said, when you say you "love" someone and the context is that you are talking about a sport, it usually just means that they are a fan of that person. What I'm saying is that what we have right now is just saying that Mystik likes Mirage, whether that is something beyond being a fan, that is something we can't determine for sure. So I think leaving it just at that is better until we receive more information that says otherwise. Metafysika (talk) 01:22, 10 October 2019 (UTC)

Viper's name speculation:
The speculation section in Viper's section of the article brings up a close-up comm feed inset from Apex Legends | Stories from the Outlands - Northstar as a possible source for the name. However this is very likely a misreading of the font provided in the scene ( 4:00 mark ) as it more likely than not says "03 - FREQ" instead, likely indicating the comm channel Viper was using.

I can't find any other info on either first or last names for the character.
 * That makes a lot of sense, gonna remove it now. Thanks for pointing it out~ As for the last name though, it would most likely be Imahara too since there's not really any reason for it to not be. Metafysika (talk) 12:39, 10 May 2021 (UTC)
