Love this sm. Must have moreee

ok i’m so sorry but i have another fcnd fic idea and it is GNAWING at me:

y’all know how salty i am about the deputy/judge situation. yes? yes. ok, so the deputy is abused and manipulated and brainwashed and over all screwed around with by joseph seed for SEVENTEEN. FUCKING. YEARS. never mind the stockholm syndrome they’ve got by the bucketful, let’s talk about if they had a last little bit of hope left inside them, even as they put on the mask and became the judge. let’s imagine the pain in their heart when after years of imagining their old friends busting down the bunker door to retrieve them that doesn’t happen. let’s think about the betrayal they must suffer when they are led out into the new world and their old friends are just. chillin. yeah theyve got work to do, a world to rebuild but this is ROOK. the one person who is so ride or die the gfh can sure as hell count on them to blast through the fucking wasteland to come get them if the roles were reversed. and they spend all that time with seed thinking ‘yeah it’s bad now but tomorrow they’ll come for me. or the next day. or the day after that…’ and it just. doesn’t happen. and they’re left to realize that the people they loved, the ones they counted on for the same rescue and safety that the dep had provided them countless times just…decided they weren’t worth the effort. and now? now they look at the judge like theyre something alien; something other. something wrong. the gfh tell the judge they aren’t welcome anymore; maybe in not so many words but rook has always been a person of action and they can pick up on that shit in a second. the message is clear; ‘you are not one of us,’ the gfh are telling the judge, ‘you are one of them.’

‘they left me to rot,’ dep thinks.

‘i was torn apart,’ dep thinks.

‘i am not who i was,’ dep thinks.

‘they say im one of joseph seed’s,’ dep thinks. ‘its like im the bad guy now.’ 

‘ok,’ dep thinks. ‘thats fine.’

‘they want a villain? i’ll give them one.’

so they bide their time and after all is said and done: the highwaymen are taken care of and joseph seed is spared by the captain? then new eden is suddenly in ruins once again. joseph seed is found with a knife in his heart. there is chaos.

and slowly, so very slowly the gfh realize something they really should have seen coming: their judgement day has arrived.

and rook? well, they’ve always been particularly good at raising hell.

tldr: the salt queen is back and i am here to deliver the only concept for a villain/misunderstood dep/judge that i will accept and also a new idea for a dlc for fcnd. in other words, ubisoft hmu i got dlc for your dlc.

So i was watching some scenes of the Joseph: Collapse DLC and Faith's section is so... different. 

For starters, Faith is ANGRY. She is pissed and awake. She's not his dutiful faithful anymore. She knows and remembers EVERYTHING. She slapping him and insulting him and showing way more of her anger then she did before. I truly believe near the end she was Rachel rather than Faith, I'm not really sure she even gets a "Joseph, You saved me" arc like the others did (even Ethan got one)

I'm not an analyst so unfortunately I can't write a whole essay about it but it made me love Faith's story more and it sucks she doesn't get more attention or fanfics in the Far Cry fandom.

[thesmarterudite]

I have a question, maybe two! Your Rook survives the game with the bunker ending, no? What will she be like in New Dawn? Will she be Joseph's judge? (And what would she be like, if instead of Joseph she was stuck in a bunker with any of the other siblings?) (●'◡'●)

Yes! She will be his judge! (I like to not stray too far from canon) I've thought about this once before, and the conclusion is the same now as it was then. John would be the worst bunkermate ever.

Thank you for the message 🥺❤

Can’t believe Thomas Rush and the Captain of Security invented love

[thesmarterudite]

Don't forget that Cap is the one to reset his leg. The way he looks at Cap 😍😍

indisputable proof that thomas rush and the captain of security were in love... or that ubisoft just really hates us:

thomas refuses to leave the captain behind in the train even when barnes wanted to leave them

ok grace, i hear you say, but barnes is all but confirmed to be a weaselly little coward anyway. you’re totally valid and correct. but anyone could’ve come back for the captain, not just thomas. also consider:

thomas struggles when barnes is killed by lou, but he only overcomes the highwayman holding him when he sees the captain in imminent danger

ok grace, i hear you say again, but maybe that was his only opportunity, or maybe he wasn’t sure the twins were actually gonna kill anyone until lou crushed barnes’ head like a melon. you’re right, but he also sacrificed himself for the captain and pushed them off the cliff into the water, saying “save yourself,” probably knowing full well that he was gonna get whacked upside the head by lou. plus:

when the captain finds him in the coal mine, he’s in the process of bashing a highwayman’s head in with a crowbar. when he sees the captain, he abandons the crowbar in favor of choking the guy out

ok grace, i hear you say once more, but maybe that was easier, or maybe he wanted a nonlethal takedown. but it’s probably much harder to take someone out by choking them with a zip tie holding your wrists together than it is to just knock em out or kill them with a crowbar. and further:

the twins kidnap thomas to use him as bait for the captain once they come to realize the captain is the real threat

the captain disarms themselves and follows the twins’ instructions to the letter when they‘re in the final stage of the “through the wringer” mission because they don’t want the twins to hurt thomas

also, their forbidden fruit superpowers only activate (either inadvertently or because they chose to) after thomas is killed

also also, they manage to drag themselves up several flights of stairs after being brutally beaten, shot almost point-blank with a shotgun, and falling out a third- or fourth-story window (either way it’s really high dammit) just so they can retrieve thomas’ body

also also also, it’s heavily implied that the captain carries thomas’ body back to prosperity by themselves while still heavily wounded, then proceeds to dig his grave and bury him themselves as well

ok grace, i hear you—why can i hear you? are you in my house?—but thomas and the captain could’ve just been good friends!! maybe family if that’s what you’d like to headcanon! and to that I say... yes, you’re entirely right! and super valid! but here’s my final two cents:

the captain returns to thomas’ grave at the end of new dawn; it’s the final objective in the main storyline, and they sit there and reflect until carmina comes to talk to them

a watch is hooked over the wooden stake holding up the nameplate above the grave. you can see thomas wearing it in-game, so... same watch?

ok grace, i hear you say, now thoroughly exasperated, what does a watch have to do with anything? well... probably nothing, tbh. i just like thinking the captain gave him that watch. thank you for coming to my ted talk <3
