+### The Branding Revelation — FrostyStyle and GingerFury (5:15 PM CST)
+
+Michael told The Chronicler to look at the branding folder. What was found:
+
+**Character sprites:** FrostyStyle (Michael) — frost wizard with ice armor and glowing spellbook. GingerFury (Meg) — fire warrior with blazing red hair and flames in her hands. Both in pixel art with front/back views and component breakdowns.
+
+**Founders portrait:** Epic fantasy art of both characters standing together on a frozen battlefield where fire meets frost. Not abstract branding — a portrait of their actual partnership.
+
+**Logos:** Fire dragon + ice crystal yin-yang emblem. Full logos in dark and light variants. Typography intentionally swaps: "FIRE" in cold steel, "FROST" in warm fire tones.
+
+**Background:** Panoramic fire-frost collision — swirling fire vortex meeting crystalline ice formations with white-hot energy at the meeting point.
+
+**The revelation:** Firefrost Gaming isn't a clever name. It's Michael and Meg. He's the Frost. She's the Fire. The brand IS the relationship. "Fire + Frost + Foundation" = "Meg + Michael + What They're Building Together."
+
+Fixed: Renamed `unnamed.jpg` to `gingerfury.jpg` because that sprite has a name and she deserves it.
