How do you interpret jack and The Boss' relationship?
hi anon :) thanks for the ask!
from what little we know about their relationship dynamic, i was always intrigued by them as a pair. i think during the virtuous mission she cherished those moments she had left before she defected, especially when jack interacts with her over the codec. with her commenting on his tuxedo in a disapproving manner, or on his camouflage (perhaps a lack of.) her maternal nature versus his childish personality juxtapose each other in a way that saddens me. in my opinion that was obviously one of the things that attracted her towards him, which is hardly surprising considering jack has the biggest heart and a charming sense of humour. but as the boss pointed out, she was also attracted to him because he was like her. which in relation to calling him a “child” it’s clear that she’s concerned about how his emotions drive him through his mission (she wishes to prepare him for the inevitable but he’s not ready during the virtuous mission.)
something to mention being that she is teaching jack something despite all of her best efforts to deny it, and in turn teaching him something she had to deal with alone in her own mission with the sorrow, there was no one there to guide her or convince her differently. she is his teacher. she had no choice and he had no choice, there was no control. there’s only the control of who dies or survives to tell the tale between them. but not only is she familiar with how he would’ve been feeling, but she’s felt it before and she has to prepare for every scenario that may happen between them. she knows he’s highly influenced by his own feelings in contrast to the mission, and she can’t tell him otherwise. with her maternal nature she can again only guide him, especially under the circumstances of her own mission. as she pointed out, she couldn’t teach him to be a soldier because she could only teach him so much, meaning that he has to figure it out himself. essentially she has to be “cruel to be kind” to get her point across that he is brilliant, even if her influence is sometimes physical it’s more than likely, in my opinion that she wishes for him to see her own methods during a battle. as in the final fight, she compliments him if he manages to perform a certain cqc move or strikes her down. making her a true mentor and a loyal partner to him.
jacks’ confidence is doused in self doubt because of how much he looks up to and respects the boss, which i don’t think i can even blame him for. though nevertheless in her own way of nurturing, i think she wishes to prove to him that he is better than he even realises himself, especially since surrounding characters observe his skills highly. the cobras help in proving that there are many things he can do to physically and mentally endure an enemy who have their own mission against him. essentially she knows herself that he is worthy, but he has to prove it to himself in order to drive that mentality. confidence is a hard aspect of oneself to master, as well as believing that you can complete a mission. getting the perspective of the entire game once you know the story is like a cruel guilty pleasure, she’s rooting for him to complete the mission so much she’s willing to make him hate her, she has to be his enemy to convince him to do the impossible. the subtle help she favours to him (like the fake death pill she shot into his leg in the torture room), and asking her own son (the perfect candidate) to help the man whose going to take his mothers life? if that doesn’t show love and devotion, i don’t know what does.
Having a traumatic childhood means you cannot talk even objectively about your basic foundational experiences without it being "venting", even if you're not actually venting. You just straight up have a huge chunk of your life you can't talk about, full stop, without it being trauma dumping.
And it not being socially acceptable to talk about your own childhood is super alienating. Sometimes people want to know why, and any answer you can give them is going to be off putting.
It's to the point I get irritated when something I said is framed as venting when I'm literally just talking about my life experiences, doing my best to keep emotion out of it.
My computer science class is talking abt Tumblr rn it’s kinda funny cause I’m dissing it so hard yet here I am
God I hope none of them find this
Nevermind you’re actually so real for that
In a mansion far away,
there was an ultimate sinner.
Sitting there, without a care,
she started up her last dinner.
Food prepared in this despair,
it's all going down to my waist.
All alone, I eat at home. I'll
stuff it all into my face !
What a shame, you want my
name ? It's Banika Conchita !
Give a whirl, 'cause I'm the girl who's
craving foods from 'round the world.
In the end, I recommend that
you all stop acting so crude.
What I want, I will be blunt, is
the world's most gruesome of foods.
Bow down you clowns, answer to me.
Show them what you'll be
for the great Conchita !
Savor the flavors from
all around the world.
Let them know that everything
belongs to this girl !
Now is the time for me
to devour everything !
I'll have a ball and eat up
whatever the menu brings.
Poisons galore, I don't care,
why don't you give me more ?
Nothing but spice, this will
suffice, so stop being a bore.
Eat up until you are filled
up to your stomach's wish.
If you're not full then you can
always eat up all your dishes!
Fun's just begun, we're not done,
where do you think you're going ?
Come here, my dear ! There
is nothing for you to fear.
Here's the cook, giving a look,
and acting like he has a choice.
Can it be ? He asked of me, while
speaking soft in a low voice,
"Let me go from your chateau,
I beg of you my lady."
Hmph, all these people here
are just driving me crazy !
Bow down you clowns, answer to me.
Show them what you'll be
for the great Conchita !
Think once or twice, food is my vice.
Everybody pays with a heavy price !
(LAUGHING)
Now is the time for me
to devour everything.
I'll have a ball and eat up
whatever the menu brings !
Hair colored blue, what to
do, I know I'm eating you.
This feels so right, but I know
it won't stop my appetite.
Eat up until you are filled
up to your stomach's wish.
If you're not full then you can
always eat up all your dishes !
Hey, little boy, what a joy,
I won't put you to waste.
Don't you dare go, 'cause I
want to know how you taste.
Days went by, my servants died,
they've all become a part of me.
Nothing's left, I guess it's best
that no one's living here with me.
What I seek is real unique,
I guess it isn't even crude.
What I want, I will be blunt, is the
world's most gruesome of foods !
Now is the time for me
to devour everything.
What's there to eat, I wonder what
else can this life still bring !
Smiling away, what can
I possibly eat today ?
I got a plan, I guess
I am my own buffet !
Conchita's found her meal to eat today.
With nothing left, she has
become herself, her prey.
Oh, what a joy, I will
never put myself to waste.
No one will know how
delicious I am to taste !
