#G.I. Joe Scarlett

Chapter 8

The morning did not come with any clarity.

Scarlett still didn’t know why she’d met the Sith, why she’d talked to him and why he’d done all of that.

She was scared of what the others would think if they found out.

But more than that… What if he was telling the truth? What if they were really helping in a coup?

Then again… Why would he care? This couldn’t be because he valued freedom and democracy. If his people were interfering, they must have some interest in the situation.

Who could she talk about all of this? Yes, she trusted her teammates, but she’d have to explain to them how she got that information and that was a conversation she wasn’t ready to have.

Scarlett didn’t know how to explain why she’d been talking to the Sith and why… No. She shouldn’t think about it like that.

There was something dangerous and magnetic about it, and she wanted to know more. But she also knew that this was a slippery slope and it’d lead to nothing but problems.

He might’ve not attacked her this time, but they weren’t allies. As a matter of fact, he was the enemy.

She’d have to find a way to find the answers for herself.

“Are the Joes still interfering with our plans?” His master asked.

Maul nodded. “They managed to deliver the weapons.

The female soldier thought they were medicine for the people. Fools.

“I’ve made contact with one of them.” He informed his master.

His master was quiet for a beat. “That was a big risk.”

“I think I might be able to get into her head.”

“Her?”

The silence stretched between them, Maul refusing to be the one to break it. He didn’t know exactly what his master was thinking about and he didn’t want to give him ideas.

“Interesting.” His master finally said. “Keep working on it. Do you think she’ll tell the others about you?”

“Unlikely. She agreed to meet me alone yesterday.”

“Excellent. If you can use her to spread mistrust amongst the Joes, it’ll be good for us. They are idealistic fools, they won’t be able to keep quiet if they find out about the coup.”

No, they wouldn’t. They were do-gooders. They’d never accept the fact that they were being used to overthrow a government.

They could use this in their favor.

And it might give Maul another reason to see the woman.

There was something about her that called to a darker part within him. It made little sense to him, but now he was curious.

And he felt like hunting.

I know you didn't work with that in a while but do you have any G. I. Joe headcanons? I'm curious.

I'm assuming you know exactly who my headcanons will be about, judging by what I have on my blog lol. I know it's been a little while, but I'm still working on another story, albeit slower because I have other projects going on as well. However, I do have many little Snakescar headcanons that I haven't put into a story (yet) and I'm glad for the chance to throw them out there! (Side note these are all based on Renegades)

The first time they met, Scarlett held Snake Eyes at gunpoint because she thought he was Cobra. It left quite an impression lol

Scarlett can handle spicy food better than Snake can.

If Duke were ever to find out what Snake looks like, I think his mind would be blown a little bit that the ninja looks like him (blonde hair, blue eyes).

If Snake could talk, he would talk at 500 miles an hour because Japanese is the fastest language in the world and that would carry over to his English as well. He signs fast instead, and sometimes Scarlett can't keep up.

Scarlett made him learn sign language. He didn't want to at first, but he caved as he grew more attached.

Snake has very calligraphy-styled handwriting.

Snake is good at cooking. Once he warmed up to the others, he and Roadblock might trade recipes.

Scarlett, who is very tech-savvy, is physically pained when Snake leaves a thousand tabs open.

Scarlett sometimes sings to herself while she's working, and Snake likes to listen, to her mortification.

Snake primarily gives Scarlett weapons as gifts (some of which he fashioned himself).

She hunts down genuine Japanese food to give him.

In a future where they are on better terms, Jinx would tell Scarlett embarrassing stories about Snake Eyes. He insists she's exaggerating. Storm Shadow would back her up.

In that same vein, there is a long standing semi-serious promise between Snake and Scarlett about going to Japan one day. When they finally do, it's to get married.

Storm Shadow would begrudgingly accept being a brother-in-law to Scarlett. He acknowledges he royally screwed up Snake's life, and she accepts Snake with his scars and makes him happy.

That's all I can think of off the top of my head, though this got pretty long regardless! Hopefully you weren't expecting more widespread headcanons over the Joe roster because these two are my major brainrot fr

Just finished G.I. Joe: Renegades for the first time and hoo boy. It's been a long time since I was down this bad for a ship.

Okay but this panel here especially. Have we been given a gay Scarlett? I mean I know she told that one guy that she and Jinx were like sisters. But the way she reacts to seeing her throughout the issue, especially this here, just does not come off as JUST sisters to me.

Like I don't know about you, but when I see my sister for the first time in awhile I don't think about how good she looks.

New covers for Scarlett and Destro in what feels like choosing between the boys and girls Happy Meal.
