"Are you sure this is a good idea?"

A bit of sniperspy (sort of). I imagine they are on a mission. Time is of essence. Something might happen. Soon.

[tvckerwash]

you know a trait I wish we would've gotten to see more of post recollection is Sneaky BastardTM wash who has a plan on top of the real plan and he doesn't tell anyone about said real plan until the last possible second, essentially forcing those around him to participate against their will in one way or another. get moved around like pawns on a chess board idiots.

the “would you return as your x-men character in deadpool 3 if they asked” starter pack

aaron stanford’s lack of poker face + mentioning, unprompted, his “lasting friendships” from those movies - months before the first trailer confirmed pyro was back - made me clock that the other two must be returning, too

then they had equally terrible poker faces in their own interviews lol

What, do you think, was Ocelot's opinion on Jackal when he first met him? And what was Jackal's characteristics/description provided to Ocelot?

His first opinion on meeting Jackal properly when Venom brought him back to Mother Base sedated after rescuing him was probably along the lines of ‘so this is the little shit that’s been trying to kill the Boss for several months.’

I little bit of a background to give some context (I say a bit it’s a really fucking long summary so I’m sorry about that lmao it does provide the context as to why Ocelot feels the way he does about him though):

The first time Jackal tried to kill Venom was at the hospital in Cyprus after Venom woke up from the 9 year coma but he arrived after all hell had been let loose and the hospital was on fire and decided ‘yeah ok maybe not today’ and just turned back around. However he did wait around a bit and started tracking Venom and Ocelot to Afghanistan, which is where he started actually trying to kill him (obviously it didn’t go to plan). This is also when Ocelot realised they were being followed so he started keeping tabs on Jackal too.

Fast forward a bit, turns out it was Cipher who had posed as a client and hired Jackal through the mercenary organisation he was affiliated with to kill Big Boss, which Jackal was not aware of but it explained why some of his mercenary buddies had gone missing recently because they were hired to do the same thing as him which he is now the replacement for so now he’s pissed, and unfortunately since he’d failed to kill Venom several times Cipher deemed him no longer useful so they handed him over to the Soviets under the false claims that he was allied with Venom and that he was helping to sabotage and blow up their facilities. Soviets decide ‘ok well we fucking hate this guy and the man he works for let’s torture him until he dies but draw out his suffering to send a message to Big Boss’ so Jackal’s then being held captive at one of their stations where there are some other prisoners.

A few days later, Jackal is hanging onto his life by a thread, been beaten up and tortured really badly, bleeding with broken bones, all that lovely stuff—luckily this is one of the places Venom has been tasked to infiltrate and rescue the prisoners, especially those who could be useful. Eventually he finds where Jackal is being held captive after looking through the cells, and as Ocelot is keeping an eye on Venom in his mission as usual, he recognises this fucker as the merc who’s been hounding Venom for months but realises that ‘wait if he’s here that means he’s an enemy of Cipher we could use him’ so they decide to haul his ass back to Mother Base. Whilst Jackal is in a lot of pain and exhausted, he’s still awake so he hears this exchange (or at least Venom’s side of it) and as soon as Venom approaches Jackal to pick him up, he tries to lash out because ‘this is the guy I’ve been trying to kill for months and he’s the reason my friends are dead’ and Jackal manages to bite him, which with his metal fang causes a gash in Venom’s arm, and in exchange Venom gives him a little gift (tranq dart to the neck).

Jackal wakes up in a room on the medical platform at Mother Base, muzzled and handcuffed to the bed so he can’t escape or attack anyone, which was Ocelot’s idea, because whilst Venom recognises that he’s dangerous and he’s attempted to kill him, Ocelot’s the one who’s been collecting information on him and has a file for Jackal, so he knows that this is a man who’s been a soldier for over half of his life and is known for his untrustworthiness and ruthlessness, and that the only reason he didn’t succeed in killing his last target was because he was up against Venom, no way in Hell was he going to let that man on Mother Base without ensuring he couldn’t hurt anyone, even if he’s severely injured and barely able to move. So it’s safe to say that Ocelot absolutely does not trust him. His affiliation with Cipher also doesn’t help. Whilst Jackal is nowhere near as dangerous as Quiet who also had an affiliation with Cipher, Quiet’s only tried to kill Venom a couple of times and mostly seems to fight back if provoked (from what I remember anyway it’s been a while since I’ve played TPP), whereas Jackal has tried to kill Venom about 10 times over a longer time span and will attack unexpectedly for seemingly no reason (Venom rescued Jackal a while after Quiet was recruited and he was still trying to kill this man at that point).

This is also why Ocelot is Jackal’s handler—whilst he has no doubts that Venom can handle himself in a fight against Jackal, he’d rather not risk it. Plus Venom’s not the resident torturer, and if Jackal tried to still kill Venom after being beaten and tortured by the Soviets for several days even after how weak he was then it will probably take a lot to get him to calm down fully, and Ocelot’s more than prepared to take on that responsibility.

In terms of the information Ocelot had of Jackal before joining Mother Base, when Jackal first started hunting them, Ocelot got a look at the patch he wore which had the logo of the merc organisation he was associated with and managed to find his files in their database—there wasn’t a lot of information on him, mostly his real name, nickname and a couple of photos of him as well as D.O.B., height and weight, nationality etc. There was also information of how long he’d been a merc for, where he previously served and how long as well as a general run-down of his proficiencies and fighting style. There were a couple of important things that weren’t in his file, such as the benign tumours on his adrenal glands that caused him to produce excess adrenaline which contributed to his fast reflexes, tirelessness, alertness, high pain tolerance and aggressive tendencies as well as his panic attacks and sudden outbursts, but Ocelot found this out after a medical examination after he was brought back to Mother Base and being treated for his injuries. Cue Ocelot testing different drugs and medication on Jackal to see which ones calm him down the most or reduce his adrenaline levels to get him to behave normally. Another thing that wasn’t in his file is that he’s a surprisingly good welder, so when he’s not training or in a mission he’ll usually be in R&D and helping develop things.

Going back a bit to Ocelot’s view of Jackal when he first met him, apart from the fact he posed a threat, he realised that Jackal was just. Rude. Him being a soldier for 20 years apparently didn’t get rid of his authority issues. He doesn’t like listening to people which is something that got on Ocelot’s nerves. He did realise Jackal’s potential to be a very useful soldier so he refused to give up on him but he just absolutely could not stand him. Which is why in a lot of my art where those two are together they won’t be seen getting along lmao.
