Most nights tbh I spend drinking myself until I'm at the point where I'm comfortable ceasing to exist that night

Hii!!! 1, 6, 10 and 13 for the meta asks!😁😁

1. how did you discover your f/o’s content?

I think I discovered it through yt? I watch a lot of gaming videos so sometimes yt just recommends random games to me and I think wat//ch dogs was one of them. I vaguely also knew abt the graphics etc controversy because I sometimes watch top x number videos about games.

I wasn't interested in Aiden's source at the time (this must've been around 2015 or something idk I have the worst memory with dates / years) and wasn't for long time. Suddenly his game just became interesting to me and I hyperfixated on it big time. The rest is history or something.

6. if your f/o is from a series, which episode/movie/game/book of their source content is your favorite?

First game obviously.

He's also in Legion (2nd sequel) as DLC character but his design is so far off what I imagine Older!Aiden to be AND Jackson is so wildly different to what I imagined him to be at 26??

Does this look like the same person to you??? I get that ppl don't stay the same (Jacks is 8 in 1) but?? this??

Also the downgrade of Aiden just...

I'm going to say it; that beard does NOT fit him.

Aside from.. superficial stuff like this, the way his dialogue is written is far too generic (at least in main game or something? I can't shake the feeling his dialogue is off somehow even when his VA did reprise the role or I don't like change this badly lmao) and doesn't FEEL like HIM at all. Also him working WITH Dedsec as whole when in Chicago he explicitly refused is bit, wtf moment for me (yes I'm aware that both San Francisco and London Dedsec are different from Chicago!Dedsec and his mind can change but?? still??) Also I can't see Aiden tolerating Wrench at all. He didn't as DLC reveals so anyway.

Also the whole "he's in coma and his mind is this Silent Hill-esque hellscape bc he never moved on from Lena's death in last 10+ years for majority of DLC" plot is just.. I'm letting out the biggest most annoyed sigh. (Him digging his own grave in the coma dream was kinda neat as it's sad tho)

All in all his inclusion felt like poor attempt at some sort of pandering or something. No effort.

Also he's mentioned to be homeless in Legion?? When in books he has safe room in house he rents to elderly?? He has his container safe houses?? He can just steal money and rent some place??

The only thing I kinda give to Legion is canonically him & Jacks & Nicky had no contact for years. Also the fact that Jacks is bitter and angry at Aiden bc he aggravated his PTSD and other shit.

I did like his short cameo in 2, where he's stuck in cell and 2's protagonist helps him out a little so he escapes by himself (and he's explicitly there to shut down human trafficking operations).

I'm kinda iffy but kinda love how he's famous in both 2 and Legion and his name and nickname Fox is known widely in hacker circles as sorta celebrity / legend type. I love it bc it's cute & makes for sorta interesting narrative but also I'm iffy bc I want him to be able to be under radar so he doesn't have to move all the damn time but he did become famous at the very end of 1 so I guess I gotta deal.

10. if you could change one thing about your f/o’s source content, would you? what would you change?

Either have the game explore more deeply how and why Aiden acts and thinks the way he does OR Clara survives

If we don't talk about story things, I'd change the gameplay from all the damn car chases to heavily feature ´hacking and potential gunfight / sneaking opportunities

13. do you have a favorite line your f/o has ever said

Favorite line I didn't mention earlier?

"You're not the first woman to tell me that" after Clara said she'd "open his world" in reference to her phone she gives Aiden that has some Dedsec stuff that makes it easier for him to hack stuff or smth. (Clara's observation of Aiden's intimidation being "very textbook" is my favorite line of hers)

Also the lines where he wonders did he get Bedbug killed are obviously my favorite because FOR ONCE Aiden actually stops to think about larger consequences of his own actions also he sounds pretty panicked there.

These are not the clothes I had on when I went to bed

And something else besides my hair is growing from my head

And when I close my eyes it looks the same as when I open them again!

LOCATION: A Seattle Cemetery/Memorial Park [ Just Before Sunset ] WHO: @taintedstarters​

Everleigh squinted in thought as pondered over the sketch she’d been working the better part of the afternoon on. It was a macabre drawing some might say. A pale corpse lay inside a soft and satin coffin, eyes open and staring lifelessly upward. A once-gorgeous wedding dress adorned her body in tatters. Her favorite part so far was the lilies sprouting straight from the corpse’s partially exposed ribcage. It’d taken her hours to decide on the exact placement of the flowers, but she was quite pleased with her final decision. But now as she brushed her gaze over the sketch, she was wondered if there was something missing. Nothing jumped out at her right away, but there was still that niggling little thought in the back of her mind that always questioned her artwork. Evie let go of a heavy sigh and shook her head. Perhaps it was just the fact that it wasn’t fully realized yet. Yes, she’d certainly be much happier once she’d put paint to the canvas to complete it.

Finally satisfied, Evie relaxed and finally became aware of her surroundings once more. She’d lost track of time, as she often did while sketching or painting. The sun was close to setting and she likely only had half an hour to get home before dark. Evie looked toward her right as she stood up and startled as she realized someone was standing just a few feet away. “Oh jeez!,” she exclaimed as she threw her palm to her now racing heart. “How long have you been there?” She questioned.

Daniel: “I hit something soft... and crunchy. A bone wrapped in leather. Come get your chew t...!”

Stray: EEEEEEEEEEK!!!!!!!!

Daniel: “To quote you, agent Reed: Fuck.”

Gavin: “What’s the problem?”

Daniel: "That I was correct: It’s a bone alright. Wearing a leather jacket. It’s a human arm!”

The game made me dig up an actual bone, fitting the story I had in mind.

      Watching the heavy, dark clouds descend, Fox nodded slowly. The wind was beginning to bite at the exposed skin on her face, reminding her of home. “I hope they are prepared for a blizzard,” she murmured, turning back toward the hotel. “I’d hate for us all to be forced between starving or freezing to death.”
