At her very core, she is the very definition of “jack of all trades, master of none”. She has a acquired a multitude of skills—dance, inventing, song, penmanship and composition, combat, strategy, and investigation, among others—but there is always someone within the Snake Eyes group who will always surpass her in some regard. So why does Ozzy keep her around?

Well, if there’s something she has above everyone else, it’s her tenacity and her daring

#hc; general #//She takes up skills to survive and keep in her back pocket #//Bc every little bit counts in her eyes #//She likes being over prepared for any thing and everything; and as self-sufficient as can be #//It does come in handy; but she can never truly call herself an expert in anything saved learned studies #//Her amassed knowledge and ever-expanding collection of information is her greatest asset #//But it’s the fact that she cannot for the life of her know when to quit that her ‘boss’ likes most #//She could be disemboweled and on her last legs; and she would STILL insist upon pushing forwards #//She could be faced with an enemy she KNOWS she can’t beat; and still step up to challenge them if need be #//She could find a snag In information that makes no sense; and she will OBSESS over it until she finds the solution or some progress #//But she cannot ever except conceding defeat whatsoever; not unless REALLY forced to #//And even then she will already be planning on how to come out on top the Instant she is able to re-engage #//To Ozzy; it’s both practical; considering the work he gives her; and good for his amusement #//Bc she will always take life or death gambles; no matter the odds; without balking in the slightest #//She will make necessary sacrifices and take the needed wounds to ensure she wins #//Anything and everyone around her; including herself; can become an exploitable pawn to ensure her successes #//Whether or not she will make sure they also come out unscathed is up to how much she likes/needs them in the long run #//She hates admitting anyone is better than her in something; but knows very well her limits in expertise compared to her allies and others #//Won’t stop her from arrogantly acting like she’s the best though #//Wsp if she so happens to use what she knows from a different field to help make herself seem more skilled in smth than she actually is #//So yeah; the thing she is best at is literally learning/retention and staying alive out of spite—which serves her quite well #//If even if it does make her SO envious and snippy when she’d faced with someone better/stronger #//Oz reckons that it can prove more valuable than skill alone esp if sb needs to make a dicey snap decision; is why she gets thmost mission #//She likes to think it’s bc he recognizes her strength; but it’s genuinely bc he likes seeing what results from her getting in deep shit #//& the assurance that even if she fails; her determination will still get them SOMETHING decent out of it; she’d make sure of it #//She’s the hardest on herself if she fails; after all. so she does what she can to ensure her failures are not Absolute—Oz appreciates tha
