the episode of g.o.d's babysitting diary w ryanghyun/ryangha is so funny now that i'm thinking abt it......pov ur a 32 yr old man who's been put in charge of three kids and an infant and two high af 23 yr olds. the most competent person is a 20 yr old who was robbing ppl at the mall two yrs ago who's apparently also some sort of baby whisperer.
Solidus has many many many character flaws, but I feel like he wouldn’t like Jetstream Sam. That’s not a character flaw, at the very least.
“Stupid idiot, try having ideals” Solidus might say, “Try being an exon.”
Of course it doesn’t seem like Solidus had many ideals when he was working for the CIA either. It’s not just the child soldier thing, the George of the time just seemed like he was a tool of the Patriots. Maybe he’d be sympathetic, though I doubt it would be shown.
The only reason I think about this is because Sam kinda echoes Solidus, right? Is that a thing? They both cause a sort of rebirth for Raiden, they both taunt him a lot, they both wear enhancement suits and wield swords. I think Sam is a more direct echo of the George design, at least.
^ that's pleased laughter i love the idea of solidus telling sam to be an exon it's too funnyyyyyyyyyyy
i mean i guess there are some similarities but i wouldn't read too far into it. a lot of those details are purely superficial (and the way sam is designed seems more to be to fit in with the rest of the antagonists) and honestly i think solidus took raiden a lot more seriously than sam did. he throws a couple jibes out, a couple insults, but largely he seems to have a weird sort of respect for raiden. (see the 'worthy opponent' bit for a notable example)
meanwhile, sam... look i don't know about everyone else but if i respected someone i wouldn't make creepy sexually suggestive comments towards them ('pretty boy' isn't all that suggestive but it sounds extremely condescending and don't even get me started on the other one). well i wouldn't do that even if i didn't respect someone but i doubly wouldn't do that if i did.
i think in their own way they are intended to be echoes, but not of each other. solidus is like 'hey what if solid snake but worse.' (to say nothing of the big boss parallels.) and sam... actually, fuck it, no, i don't care what other people think, i'm not going to say he's a fucked up echo of raiden because they have so little in common it's not even funny.
oops. got me rambling
also you're right not liking jetstream sam is the opposite of a character flaw
"... well no wonder eijiro is so messed up. this sucks," Nana flinched at the laughter(?) Yuri warbled out as she wrote her note. Her hands were really shaking, "That's funny. You're funny. Why so funny? Are you worried that Aki won't come?"
"they wouldn't let him out. they're already looking for you."
