One of my favourite aspects about Sniper and Spy's relationship (platonic or romantic) is how they both have a mutual understanding of like, quiet time and what it's like to genuinely feel this certain flavour of solitude:
Sniper has a lot of his work done completely alone; hiding, playing the waiting game, and all that jazz, while Spy has a somewhat similar experience. Sure, his espionage lifestyle has a more active role at times, but his job still requires maintaining distance (physical and emotional) from both clients and targets. Both are dedicated to their work enough that they'd avoid getting genuinely personal with people altogether— even if they wanted to, they know it'd negatively impact their abilities to perform. Sniper having the mindset of having "a plan to kill everyone you meet" and to just "take the shot", and Spy being described as a "puzzle, wrapped in an enigma, shrouded in riddles" is telling of how much of a wall either can put up and any given time.
Now, I'm not saying that the other mercs don't know what it's like to be isolated or that they could never relate to Sniper or Spy in that regard, but their roles aren't necessarily fundamentally built around it, y'know? They aren't required to hide away or to work solo (you could make the joke of "then why are there always 5+ snipers and spies on my team at any given time??" but shhhh this is more in the context of the lore/comics lolol).
I feel like this concept of them realizing their niche similarities and how "hey, maybe I'm not really alone in this world" has so much potential. Like... the idea of them not really participating often in team activities or usually hiding away (in a van and smoking room perhaps?) is great, but to add on the angle that they now have someone who finally understands?? To finally have someone that you don't have to explain anything to?? It hits differently. They could have a smoke together, not saying a word the whole time, and consider it a successful hangout— they don't expect anything from the other, or feel the pressure to act differently because they just get it, and know why things are the way they are.
There's so much angst potential too, forbidden friends/lovers who both know the consequences if things go sour. Maybe they've suppressed so much of that desire to have a relationship (platonic or romantic), that when they finally admit that this is the case (realizing they both feel the same way), something clicks and they try to make it work. Don't even get me started on the potential "hey, maybe I can trust you" aspects either lmao. Regardless of what direction you take though, their relationship growing feels special and unique.
The media too often depicts the whole "can't get close to no one. I don't need friends" attitude as mostly negative and something that needs to be fixed... but with these guys, they're just allowed to be like this. Not saying that there are no cons to this attitude ofc, but it's not necessarily a thing they have to change about themselves or each other or anything. I guess it's refreshing to see that there are still characters out there who can be loners and just be content about it. Unless of course, you want to go down that route. Love that type of angst, but it's nice to have that option without it feeling too OOC. Ugh, there's like so much to explore and deconstruct and so many directions to take this fr fr
((Also, I realize now it's kinda like being an art kid and that moment when you finally meet someone where you don't have to explain why you keep drawing the same old soggy men who shoot each other cuz they just understand. Artist to artist communication lol))

I was watching Bbh's old hunger games videos for personal enrichment and this caption from the one with the youtuber tournament made me cackle. Looking at the first day of purgatory and his behavior on qsmp in general and like. Glad to see he hasn't changed AT ALL in 10 years lmao

My grandma gave me 50$! So I bought myself a new shirt and tights, old Navy sent out an email saying get 50% off your entire purchase! So instead of 41$ it was only 21$! And I am using the rest to go see Thor tonight
It has been bad since I started these antidepressants, so thought I would cheer myself up with this

My Thoughts at this Moment
I need and want more. I crave you more and more. This is the one thing I crave the most. Hopefully I don't fall deep. But hopefully we last to be good "friends" and just vibe. As much as I'm looking for a relationship I stopped and I don't know why. I'm not gonna continue on with the plan saying I want something more. As of right now I'm satisfied. You actually got my attention. And I wasn't scared at all. The fact you were gentle and "took" care of me was good enough for me. But it still doesn't mean you're not like those other niggas. You still have to prove that and you haven't. But in the long run I know we won't be anything and I'm okay with that. I can saw that it was a meramble night. Can't want for another round. lol I'm just rambling shit

Throwing this image from the twitch recap here because I'm in hysterics over the hours difference between the 1st and 2nd streamer. Certified hypnogirlie i freaking guess
