my goat

So. Jackie lives and gets the Keanu Reeves tapeworm, ideally V also lives but they are probably going to die in this situation but I feel like Jackie deserved better so I choose to ignore that. I do mean it when I say that if V acted slightly more irrationally after the heist (idea: hotwiring another car/netrunner!V hijacking the Delamain) Jackie would have probably lived and been revived by the chip, because he had the chip in his head when he died. And when Johnny's engram starts to invade his brain and give him notions, I do think he'd probably agree with a lot of Johnny's ideas.

Jackie's no freedom fighter, obviously, but I like to think he'd be angry enough that Arasaka ruined his life (technically, I know it was the Voodoo Boys' idea first to steal the chip but if Yorinobu hadn't murked his old man none of this shit would have happened) he would be more than eager to fuck Arasaka up so he could both get his revenge and get the brainchip out.

Also: Jackie gets therapy from his tapeworm because of all the dad trauma
