I think for the most part the "lore" is implied. Filecards have devolved into a hieroglyphic form of "writing" based on icons. But there's a reason why that form of written language disappeared. Nuanced expression is nonexistent. I get filecards are difficult nowadays (look at the travesty that is the Retro filecard). But it still sucks. Every time I hear the Classified development team explain what I view as a really silly move I groan in agony. It all just sounds contrived or an excuse to congratulate one another because,"You're AWESOME LENNY! NO!!!!! YOU'RE AWESOME MUSTACHE GUY!!!!"
However, My question was why the twins mean so much to DreadNock Twins. Not a critique on the lore of Classified.
