Description So, some of you are probably already aware of the shitstorm that happened recently with Overwatch. One person writes a post about one of Tracer's victory poses, saying something about how the pose is too sexual and out of character for Tracer ans unfit for small children like his daughter to see. Nearly the entire forum disagrees with the original post.  Blizzard rep comes in, pretty much apologizes to that one person, and promises to remove the pose, disregarding everyone else's opionions. Epic shitstorm ensued.

Anyway, I decided to poke a bit of fun at the situation, and draw another character in the same pose. I wanted something with decidedly non-sexualized female characters (fanart notwhitstanding), so Touhou was an obvious choice. I also wanted a character guns would make sense on, so Reisen it was.

While looking at reference pictures, I happened to notice how Reisen's design changes somewhat between iterations. Her hair can be waist length or almost touching the ground, she's had different shoes, she's had white socks and black stockings, the skirt is usually a pink-purple color but was blue in the fighting games, and her shirt has had both short and long sleeves, when she doesn't have a suit jacket over it. I ended up combining elements from different iterations for this. The hair being waist length was an easy choice, as I wanted that glorious derrière to be unobstructed, not that the skirt shows much, unlike a pair of tight pants.

I thought of taggging this picture as NSFW here as a joke, but considering people without accounts and those with stricter settings wouldn't be able to see it, I decided against it. The /r/touhou post is NSFW marked, though.
