#gi joe scarlett

[theknightofivanhoe]

I know, not an exact following of today's Robstar prompt for @robxstar, but the words 'costume swap' gave me an opportunity to try out an idea of mine that involves the Teen Titans and GI Joe alliance again. So the GI Joes pick Robin and Starfire for a mission to go undercover where they have to pose as Cobra Vipers. Scarlett, Joe intel agent and expert rifleman Grunt hand the lovebirds some Viper uniforms and armour to disguise themselves, Starfire admiring the Joes' resourcefulness while Robin stares at the bodysuit he will have to hide his hero outfit under.

In the Cobra base, Starfire and Robin scout around in their disguises, Starfire herself finding it hard to see behind her silver mask. Robin and Scarlett, over Joe communications, immediately alert the Tamaranian to Cobra Commander, his second-in-command the Baroness and their ally Mad Mod coming their way with a pair of elite Crimson Guards. Can the two Titans maintain their cover long enough to not raise the Cobra leaders and their old enemy's suspicions?

And they were roommates!

Finally got my copy of Scarlett #1!

Scarlett goes on a mission to recover her missing friend, Jinx (whom she also shares a secret code built on their personal relationship), who has been missing for 2 years.

I am making implications, but I am glad to see development in Scarlett's relationship with other women. I fully admit that I am no GI Joe afficionado and that most of my knowledge is from the crossovers with Transformers, but this is the first time I've seen Scarlett actually have her relationship with other women gone into. It's usually her romantic relationship with Duke or Snake Eyes or Shipwreck or whoever.

It may help that this miniseries is written by Kelly Thompson? I don't know how many female writers GI Joe has had over the years.

Overall, I think this was a good first issue!

when you have the overwhelming urge to draw Scarlett with an undercut but you forgot you don't know how to draw undercuts

[blade-liger-4ever]

Chapter 3

“We’re still looking for a cot, but you can leave your…” Scarlett’s eyes dropped to the single backpack on Katia’s hand. “Your bag there.”

“Thank you.” Katia said softly. “I’m sorry you have to share your space with me.”

Scarlett cleared her throat. “Those were orders.”

“Right.” Katia dropped her bag by the corner. “So… Now what?”

“Here.” Scarlett passed her a watch. “You have to keep this on at all times.”

Katia analyzed the object in her hand. “They ran out of collars?”

Scarlett pressed her lips together, because she didn’t want to show her amusement at Katia’s silly joke. There was something about the other woman that made her seem so fragile.

By Katia’s own admission, she wasn’t some delicate flower that needed protection. Alongside her brother, she had killed a shitload of people, but… She seemed lost, anxious, tense…

Yes, she had come to a strange place and surrendered herself, putting herself and her partner at the mercy of the Joes. However, Scarlett felt as if this wasn’t the problem, exactly. Katia just looked like she was permanently scared, afraid of the world.

“Is he…” Scarlett cleared her throat. “Is that guy threatening you? Is he forcing you to…”

“Oh no.” Katia was quick to assure her. “He isn’t. He’s not the nicest guy around, but he isn’t a complete asshole. Very annoying sometimes.” She cleared her throat, realizing she was rambling about 47. “But he isn’t forcing me. It’ll probably sound strange to you, but he set me free.”

Scarlett frowned. “How?”

“My whole life was spent running.” Katia scoffed, clearly at herself. “I was always paranoid, scared, afraid to stay too long anywhere. I never understood why I needed to do that, just that I did. I was looking for someone, not knowing why…” She paused. “Then he came in. And everything became crystal clear for the first time ever.”

“Are you…” Scarlett trailed off. “You and him… Are you…”

Katia’s expression grew alarmed. “No. Ew!” She shook her head like the mere idea was disgusting to her. “No way. I don’t think  that he has in him to even consider something like that, but even if he did… No.” She shuddered.

“If you’re sure…”

***

Great. They put him with the ninja.

At least 47 didn’t have to worry about conversation.

He worried about Katia. Which felt odd.

He wasn’t used to worrying about anyone -he hardly worried about himself. However, he couldn’t stop this… Thing. Somehow, along the way, he started caring about Katia, and he didn’t know how to… Not.

His mind was usually a calm place, where plans were made and then executed in perfect order. There was no space for fear or uncertainty, because that was how agents died. 47 had been raised and trained to do a single job, and he could do it very well.

Now he was a little worried he might not be able to do it anymore.

Doubting himself was also new to him. And it wasn’t that he was doubting his training or his abilities; he was a bit concerned about his motivation.

He’d never considered the idea of ‘freedom’. 47 only knew one way to live, and not being an agent never crossed his mind. He was made for it -quite literally -and the idea of just leaving ICA had never occurred to him until recently.

As in, last week.

The point was, 47 knew how to do one thing. He did it very well -exceedingly so -but it wasn’t the type of skill that the so called ‘normal people’ had. If he left the agency, what was he supposed to do?

Mercenary work sounded painfully boring, and he wasn’t about to start working for some government.

Even he had his limits.

“Yo, Snake!” A black man stopped by the door. “Is your new roomie all settled down?”

Snake Eyes turned to the newcomer, and so did 47, but neither of them deigned to reply to the comment.

“Wow…” The man drawled. “There’s two of you now. Great. I hope Scarlett is luckier with her roomie.”

That was true. Katia had also gotten a guard, a redhead by the name of Scarlett.

Original.

“I want to see Katia.” 47 said to the man that could actually answer him.

“In a minute, Ice Cube.” The man threw back. “First you need to put this on and promise not  to take it off.”

47 caught the watch thrown his way and eyed it. “And you’ll take my word for it?”

“No. After it’s on, it can’t be taken off. Otherwise it’ll explode.”

47 scoffed, but put the watch on. He couldn’t care less about their juvenile tactics, he just wanted to make sure Katia was okay.

She was probably very stressed about being in this closed space. He needed to talk to her before she decided to dismantle a jeep or something.

“I’ll take you to your Katia now.” The man continued. “I’m Ripcord, by the way.”

“I don’t care.” 47 informed him.

“Right…” Rip drawled. “You’re really one of those silent, tough types, hm?”

47 didn’t even reply as he started following the man down a hallway.

From the other end of it, the redhead -Scarlett- was coming straight at them.

“Scarlett.” Rip grinned at her. “Iceman here was looking for Katia.”

“Yeah… Actually, I wanted to talk to him for a minute.” Scarlett turned her attention completely to him.

47 arched an eyebrow, waiting for her to say whatever she wanted to.

“Scarlett…” Rip frowned. “Are you sure? This dude is… Weird.”

She sighed. “Yes, I’m sure, Rip.” She gave him a look. “I’ll take him to Katia after I talk to him.”

Ripcord obviously wanted to argue against leaving her alone with him, but eventually decided to just go. She waited until Rip was out of sight before turning back to the agent.

“I’m Scarlett. Katia said your name is 47?” She frowned.

“Yes.”

She was clearly waiting for him to say something else, but she realized it was pointless. “I’m not exactly sure what’s the connection between you and Katia.” She was clearly uncomfortable with this conversation. “She just told me it wasn’t romantic.”

47’s eyebrows went up. “It is not romantic.”

“Right. I know it’s none of my business…”

“I’m glad we had this conversation. May we go?”

She narrowed her eyes at him. “But…” She pressed. “I think she’s very tense. I don’t know her well, but to me it looks as if she’s one step from a full panic attack.”

“She doesn’t like feeling trapped and cornered and we’re under the desert. There are no windows, no exit points. She’s probably feeling very anxious right now.”

Scarlett frowned. “Is there any way to help her?”

“Why do you care?”

“I don’t know.” She admitted. “But she looks like she could really use some help, so…”

47 hummed. “There’s one thing that calms her down, but you’ll probably need to ask permission for that.”

Secret Sauce: No Marlon Wayans

[pluralsword]

Learned today that Legacy Arcee/Road Rocket/Flamewar are compatible with 3.75" action figure scale which means they can fit in with striker Bumblebee and hiss Megatron. sure would be nice to have a car arcee who could carry a joe (yes we did choose a Scarlett with an edc-like armor). Guess she'd be pricey though because she'd be bigger $60+ combat vehicle Bumblebee but hey she wouldn't be more than $80+ Megatron right? Also for the cost/size should be some good engineering on Arcee hopefully (if Legacy Elita foretells as we also show through our IDW1 Arcee custom with that mold, next car Arcee engineering will be good)

Okay, where can I find these comics?

Transformers All-Sparks: The Main Humans of the AU.

The central humans of my AU. Though waaaay ahead in the future chronologically speaking from when the Autobot vs Decepticon civil war actually begins, I still feel appropriate to share... plus a hint of what also crossovers with this AU.

Much like how on Cybertron this AU is a family drama inolving the Paxes and Carcers, the human side is of two families connected by two lovers...

With the added bonus of two agents stuck with each other and keeping an eye on a certain former G.I. Joe.

Jack Darby is a typical high school boy who is unsure of his future and has his soul thoroughly sucked out by the horror of the almighty KO Burger. He loves his mom, and his girlfriend (who most people consider wayyyyy out of his league) Sierra brightens his day. Though he doesn't lookit at first, he's quick thinking and resourceful. A natural survivor.

Sierra O'Hara is the most popular girl in school, has good grades and the local cheer captain. Though at times she can be sean as a 'mean girl', it's a defense mechanism, as she's not the most trusting person. Those who DO earn her trust and friendship find a completely different person. Curious and excitable.

She has a deep interest in chemistry and engineering, and feels at home in a fast car or riding (and working on) motorbikes. For whatever reason, she feels a connection with anything equipped with an engine.

Agent Simmons and Agent Fowler are the local secret agents. One is a member of a mysterious org known as Sector 7, and the other a liason between several government agencies. It is their job to keep an eye on one Shana O'Hara, the local baseball coach. She IS after all, Scarlett, one of the best of the best among the now mostly retired Joes. Unfortunately for them, she prefers to live a peaceful life as a civvie, thank you very much.

June Darby is a close friend of Shana and helped the retired vet get the hang of life in Jasper, Nevada. She's just a concerned mom who's worried about her son's future. She's a nurse, and knows all about how life is a precious thing, and wants her son to have a long and fulfilling one.

“That was a bust.” John groaned as they entered the precint.

“Oh if someone had warned you about it.” Dorian snarked. “Oh wait. I did.”

John snorted. “You’re getting a lot of attitude lately.”

“It’s because I spend too much time with you.” Dorian said, but it lacked heat.

John just grinned at him.

“Isn’t our new partner supposed to start today?” Dorian asked, changing the subject.

“You mean Major O’Hara?” John seemed quite chirp all of sudden. “Sure.”

“You’re still way too cool about that.” Dorian accused.

“Detective Kennex. Dorian.” Scarllet called as she got closer. “Good morning.” She nodded at them.

Dorian watched as John was way too nice to the woman. He knew John better than he knew himself, so Dorian was well aware of what the other man was thinking about.

“Major O’Hara.” Dorian smiled at her. “Welcome.”

She smiled back at him. “Thank you, Dorian.”

When she turned her back, John was looking at him.

“What?” He whispered to the detective.

John scoffed. “Nothing.”
