Agents in a Snowball Fight --- > (Headcanons) ☃️ ❄️
Smith
Smith HATES the snow…
…and also doesn't really hate it? Let me explain.
He doesn’t like how it causes roads and highways to be blocked off, electricity to go out, for office life to slow down, etc.
He thinks it’s gross when he sees how the cold can cause humans' noses to get all snotty
He hates the baggage it brings, it gives him a headache.
So, if you ask him if he liked it, he’d say no.
“It gets in my way.”
However, he has his secrets, cause that’s not the full truth.
He’d gladly peer out his office window to look at the white blanket coating the city. From afar, it looks very pretty to him.
He also likes it because when he’s chasing people who have broken from the Matrix, there’s a high chance they won’t fully pay attention to their surroundings and slip while running.
“You shouldn’t run when it’s icy,” he’d taunt.
He wouldn’t bring up the idea of a snowball fight, that would be like, the last thing on his mind
If you somehow managed to get him outside his office’s building, you’d have to try hard to get in a sneak attack. This guy has seen a lot, coming to expect it at this point, especially from you.
“You’ll have to do better than that.”
They could potentially work, though, if he was, for instance, occupied with another task
If you're just an absolute chad at throwing and you manage to hit Smith, he’d look at you with this unsatisfied stare. He simply dusts off his suit and walks away (he’s secretly impressed you managed)
The only reason he would actually throw a snowball is if you continued doing it/trying. If you persisted, he’d use his speed to gather a giant snowball together and hurl it at you. You take your defeat and stop, cause 1. He threw it so hard, that you’re now on the ground and 2. All that combined snow was hella cold.
All in all, you don’t want to challenge him, especially as a human. You’d be losing. Hard.
Brown
When it comes to snow, I think Brown appreciates it more than he dislikes it.
He already recognizes the overall cultural aspect of snow, and that’s what he respects about it.
However, I can easily see him somewhat struggling to do the things he can usually do because of it. Like, I can see him easily losing his balance on the street if it’s iced over.
But anyway, I believe that he’d be more open to a fight, but here's the catch:
He’s not going to agree if you ask him to a snowball fight
“I have more important things to worry about.”
However, if you bring it up under the guise of training to help your throwing speed, aim, or something of the sort, he’ll agree
But only for a little while, he is a very busy program after all
He takes your proposal of actually training you seriously. When you’re both outside, he’s stone-faced the entire time.
He sets up some ground rules and you start training. He doesn’t hold back at all.
“The rebels won’t go easy on you, therefore I won’t go easy on you.”
I can see you two working on your awareness of others; you two could build snow people and you’ll have to hit him without hitting the, as he’s put it, the “snow citizens”.
And he’d train your brain to have better quick-thinking abilities. He’s absolutely going to use his super-speed while training you.
If you try to deviate from practice and goof off, he’ll pelt you with a bunch of snowballs, much to your dismay.
“Cool it with the snowballs, Brown!” “Stay on task!”
Sneak attacks could work on him. He’d demonstrate throwing strategies. Since he’s taking it seriously, he wouldn’t expect a sneak attack at all.
If you go through with the attack, he’d be very insulted that you’re not paying attention. Your punishment; you get pelted with snowballs.
He won’t admit it to you, but he had fun since it’s not the usual type of training. He’d want you to propose a snowball fight training session again.
Jones
Like Brown, I don’t think that he really has an opinion on snow.
Before he really experiences it, his mentality is,
“Oh, look…snow. Anyway–”
Compared to Smith and Brown, he’s the youngest program of the two
Therefore, I think that he’d be the most open to playing in it.
When you ask him to go outside with you under the guise of “training”, he immediately says yes
Once you two set up some rules, he’d get the hang of the activity quickly
The most lighthearted; the most likely to categorize what you’re doing as fun
“That was…certainly different from what I’m used to doing.”
He wouldn’t be the type to take it extremely seriously, therefore he’d go pretty easy on you. I can’t see him using his super speed that much since he wants to give you a fair shot at winning
You can easily get away with sneak attacks since he’s new
When you manage to do it, he’d be taken by surprise, but he’d catch on quickly.
“Oh, so we’re breaking rules now? Well, if that’s how you want to play–”
After the snowball fight with you, he’d probably ask about other activities. So you decide to show him other winter activities, still under the guise of “training”. You two make snow people, lay on the ground and create snow angels, and just watch as snowflakes fall (Jones catches one with his tongue, and he quickly decides he’d rather not do that again because of the taste, lol).
Your fun is cut short when Smith sends Jones down to fetch you two so you both can get back to actually training.
I think that’s when he’d have an eye-opener moment.
After that day, he’d look around the Metacortex building and watch others playing in the snow like you two did. Now, when he’s out and about, he might stop to observe the tiny cat footprints indented in the snow. Maybe he’ll watch from a distance as families glide on the ice of skating rinks
Overall, he’d recognize snow’s ability to bring people together for a good time.
ALL THE AGENTS:
Smith does not participate in the antics. Nope.
He’ll watch you and the other agents throwing snow from down below
He doesn’t need to drink or eat but he can. If it’s cold, he’d drink a hot chocolate (I think peppermint-hot chocolate would be his fav)
Brown starts off taking the fight seriously, but after seeing you and Jones smiling, he doesn’t take it as seriously
He decides to just throw snowballs at regular speed when he sees that’s what you and Jones are doing
He’s winning the fight so far
Jones is truly enjoying the snowball fight with you both
He watches as you try your hardest to hit him and Brown while occasionally ducking for cover behind a nearby tree
Your accuracy isn’t as good as theirs, but he loves that you’re playing anyway.
A/N I’m a little bit late with this! In the state I’m in now, people aren’t used to getting snow. Many of my friends hadn’t seen snow before, so it was nice being able to go outside and make snowmen and just goof around. Somewhat inspired by that January day. I hope you enjoyed, this is my first time writing headcanons!
