Also changes several "you"s and "your"s in the descriptions into the proper "we"s and such. ## Why It's Good For The Game closes #92373 Most of them already use "we"s "us"s and "our"s, and its oddly inconsistent as is --- code/modules/antagonists/changeling/powers/mimic_voice.dm | 2 +- code/modules/antagonists/changeling/powers/mmi_talk.dm | 2 +- code/modules/antagonists/changeling/powers/tiny_prick.dm | 4 ++-- code/modules/antagonists/changeling/powers/void_adaption.dm | 6 +++--- 4 files changed, 7 insertions(+), 7 deletions(-) diff --git a/code/modules/antagonists/changeling/powers/mimic_voice.dm b/code/modules/antagonists/changeling/powers/mimic_voice.dm index 9caf0abb450..99f54304580 100644 --- a/code/modules/antagonists/changeling/powers/mimic_voice.dm +++ b/code/modules/antagonists/changeling/powers/mimic_voice.dm @@ -2,7 +2,7 @@ name = "Mimic Voice" desc = "We shape our vocal glands to sound like a desired voice.
