i kno everyone loves to reinforce the idea that jesse’s just a kid at seventeen but chances are he’d deeply resent being reduced to his age given the fact he had to grow up at an alarming pace and was forced to come to terms with how dark and grim and violent the world is and how matching the world for those qualities is sometimes the easiest way to survive but not at all the best way to live

#( like dont get me wrong seventeen is so young but #as someone who was v self-sufficient at seventeen and also in some Trouble bc i was busy being self-sufficient #in some not so legal ways #people trying to mom n dad me was literally the most annoying thing lmao #and i can only imagine that mc/cree --- who more likely than not was going to be tried as an adult and had been treated as an adult #within deadlock w all the responsibility and respect and what have you that entails --- would see through people walking on eggshells #around him because of his age #like come on. that's so transparent. #he was an adult enough to take lives and ruin lives and livelihoods and understand the tradeoff for disgusting amounts of money. #and he's an adult enough to kill and extract information and become notorious on either side of the law for bl/ackwatch. #let mc/cree be young but also stop calling him a child bc he's made decisions that have altered the courses of too many lives to permit #innocence? he knows what he's done. he wants to do better. he has that agency as someone on the cusp of legal adulthood. #but he's already been managing himself better than most twenty-something year olds before that lmao. #tl;dr can people stop treating newly bl/ackwatch mc/cree like a mindless infant. thanks ) #; MISC: RELOAD. #; IC: HEADCANON.
