“You can say that again.” He said with a quirk of his lips. “Does it happen to you often? You look like you’re used to this.”
“It happens often enough that a good portion of Q branch think it’s operator error.” He said, letting a smile play across his lips to show he wasn’t bothered by this. “It’s just another day in the life of a MI6 agent, in all honesty.”
“Shiiiit!” Cosette burst through the doors, stumbling over herself as she rushed to pull the gun out of Jacob’s hand and replace it with the one she’d taken earlier. She paused to catch her breath, throwing her blonde hair to the side and forcing a smile. “Please tell me you didn’t shoot it four times?”
“Uh-I’m pretty sure I did.” Jacob siad, taking the other gun from Cosette. “Should I not have? I didn’t see anything about a malfunctioning gun anywhere.”
“It must be a malfunction in the pistol,” N said as he pulled the earmuffs down to rest on his shoulders. “The ammo shot perfectly from the other gun.” He glanced at the gun on the table before them, and to the one in the agent’s hand. “It’ll need cleaning, and reassembly.“
Jacob sighed, shoulders dropping into a more relaxed posture. “There goes shooting practice today then. I’ll get right on that.”
Finley frowned, moving closer and without asking permission, snatching the gun from his grip and inspecting it silently, with a sharp glare. “Someone thinks they’re being incredibly clever—this looks like one of the Qs’ older handprint prototypes. Thought they’d toss it in the mix for a laugh.”
“Thanks for offering to help, Finley. I really appreciate when you come up and grab stuff out of my hands like that." Jacob said, sarcastically. “I don’t t share that particular brand of humour then because I fail to see how that could be funny.”
“There shouldn’t be around here. We testmost of the ones before we put them into general circulation. Or maybe that’sjust me… I don’t know. Depending on what’s wrong with it I might be able tofix it here if you give me a minute or two.”
“I’m pretty sure quite a few members of Q branch deliberately put out guns that haven’t been tested just to watch people struggle with them on the security cameras. But that’s just what I heard. If you wouldn’t mind taking a look at it for me that would be great.”
Andrew frowned when, for a third time, the gun in the stall next to his own didn’t finish its clip. Obviously there was always a chance there could be a good reason as to why the shooter didn’t finish the clip, but Andrew couldn’t for the life of him think of why that would happen three times in less than an hour.
“You alright there, mate?” Andew asked, leaning back around the divider as he tugged at his ear muffs. “Jamming problems?”
“It would seem so.” He replied, tinkering with the thing in his hand. “Kind of messes up shooting practice when the gun doesn’t fire right.” He continued with a laugh, glancing at the man in the booth next to him.
“Switch it up before you lose a hand.“
“That seems like pretty sound advice. I’d like to keep both of those intact.”
She had come up to see how the new issue of guns were holding up when she heard him exclaim. She smiled as she walked over, answering his mumblings. “I’m afraid so 004. That’s why we have them tested before agents are sent out in the field with them. This certainly wouldn’t do if you found yourself in a tense situation, now would it?”
“It’s still heavy enough to hit someone on the head with but I see your point. It’s kind of hard to shoot someone when the gun doesn’t work. It would be nice for us to be told that some of the guns don’t work though, instead of finding out the hard way.” He said, turning to look at her with an eyebrow raised.
“Shit!” Mal cursed as the papers in her arms fell the ground with a dull thud, scattering in all directions. With a groan, she dropped down to begin picking them up, hoping that none had fallen out of the files. Of course, she should’ve just taken two trips, but she wasn’t about to let her peers make her walk twice around the compound. The entire job she had been assigned, grabbing a bunch of old files, seemed like a joke to begin with, and Mal hated to be messed with. At the sound of footsteps, Mal tried to grab everything quickly, hoping to put herself together before whoever they were found her.
“Would you like some help with that?” Jacob questioned, before dropping into a squat to pick up a few of the files without waiting for an answer. “That’s a lot of files to carry. Where are you going? I’ll help you carry some of them.”
“For the love of-” Jacob muttered to himself as the gun in his hand jammed for the third time since he’d entered the shooting range. He shook his head as he pulled his ear muffs down to rest around his neck. “I guess they’re really is a bad one on every crop, huh?”

BASICS
FULL NAME: Jacob Richard Bale AGE: 29 D.O.B.: December 13th, 1985 TITLE: 004 FC: Michael B. Jordan
BIOGRAPHY
Raised with a stereotypical British stiff upper lip to a middle class family that frequently lived outside it’s means Jacob had a normal childhood by most people’s standards. His father was a stockbroker that commonly worked overtime to pay for his secretary-turned-stay-at-home-Mom’s ludicrous spending habits and so Jacob and his older brother brother Peter grew up with their father being more of a name and a face than a person. Young Jacob, or Jakey as his brother took to calling him, loved exploring and solving mystery, citing the Scooby-Doo gang as his personal heroes to all of his teachers up until year 4, when he switched it to Sherlock Holmes claiming it was more grown-up. To no one’s surprise he graduated his A levels at the top of the class and went on to join to British Police Force.
His dream of being a detective was within reach the night he was spent to check a tip they’d received about a drug deal going down. It should have been a routine patrol, the call came in at 5 minutes to 12 about the deal and as the nearest officer he headed over to it immediately. He expected, as he drove through a shady part of London, that he’d be making an arrest that night but he did not expect to tackle his older brother into the gravel of an empty parking lot with a small baggy of cocaine in his hand. That arrest changed a lot for the Bale family as a whole. While his parents were always aware that Peter hadn’t turned out like Jacob they didn’t know the magnitude of the difference but to the surprise of those in the upper crust society they’d weaseled their way into with fake diamonds and even faker smiles, and their other son, Christopher and Diane Bale stood behind Peter, claiming that Jacob was just jealous of the heir to a fortune that didn’t really exist and disowned him.
Now at 25 with nothing holding him to London he began to explore other options and stumbled on the MI6. Always known for only taking calculated risks Jacob decided that since he was no longer part of a world where he was in the spotlight he wanted to break out of the self-made mold and applied to the 00 program without a second thought, leaving his apartment with most of his stuff in it, including every picture of his family he owned and moved to live closer to headquarters. He kept up with the trial, feeling a little bit pleased and a little guilty when his brother was sentenced to a few years in prison. None of his family have tried to contact him since he left and he hasn’t tried to contact them.
Flash forward 5 years and Jacob is now a successful field agent with a bright future inside the agency. He’d inherited his father’s fanatical obsession when it came to project and that was both an asset and a liability, allowing him to devote himself to one thing at a time while also preventing him from taking a step back and looking at the bigger picture, and his years in the police force gave him a desperate need for organization. After being both a cop and a spy for several he enjoys his work with MI6 much more than he ever did police work and has ambitions of one day running the operation.
PERSONALITY
+ Adaptable, captivating, organized, ambitious. + Obsessive, apatheic, stiff, strong-willed.
JACOB IS PLAYED BY SHERIDAN ( SHE/HER, PST ).
