I MEAN HELL, the guy literally gets into an accident when he’s taken control of V’s body and he didn’t really care too much about it. Almost like he got so caught up living again that it was just another night out for him. Imagine if he broke an arm or a leg during that crash, I bet he would have felt very bad about hurting V so frivolously. Sure, he’ll get a tattoo, but that’s funny. it can be reversed and it’s only skip deep. a broken bone has to be lived with for a while.

it probably pains him a lot to see V hurt when he is helpless to do anything about it. it probably drives him nuts that they’re so stubborn, just like him. he probably lies awake in his little hardware mind palace wondering why he cares so much, until something eventually clicks. until he realises he’s never been closer to anyone in his entire life, and the last person he didn’t want to see hurt was Alt.

I'd like to take this wonderful moment to share with you multiple different artfight teams I randomly dreamt of in these past 2 years. Because as a certified ux designer, and bearer of *thy* audhd combo, artfight's desktop website is something I can conjure up in my dreams with too much accuracy. It is in fact the only 'consistent' imagery I ever dream of. It's fascinating. So I want to propose various teams I've had appear to me in my dreams. Included the in-real-time narrations and dream recollections as well.

so WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS GUYS PROBLEM?? i knew from my first playthrough years ago that he hated river, yeah uh huh okay okay. i didnt really pay much attention to how he felt about judy, but now that i have SHEEEEESH. he barely fucking tolerates her on a good day, and he only seems to get snippier the more you get to know her.

and YEAH YEAH I KNOW, cdpr definitely wrote the story for the cis straight dude bros and the rest of us get the same thing but with half-assed branches tacked on, BUT FOR JOHNNY TO BE SO GOD DAMN COMBATIVE ABOUT THE 2 FEMME LOVE INTERESTS HAD TO HAVE BEEN A CHOICE, RIGHT??

like in the writers room, surely there was a “how does johnny feel about the 4 people we have chosen for V to bone?” “WELL he likes panam because she’s a deeply fuck the establishment badass woman and he’s got a track record of being into that, and he can’t possibly be mad about kerry because we sprinkle throughout the game that johnny kind of regrets not giving him a chance anyway. BUT OH YEAH THE COP nah johnny hates his living guts, AND OH the cute bd specialist? well, hm… yeah let’s have him not like her too because she’s too idealistic or something idk” WHAT DO YOU MEAN

JOHNNY “IDEALIST TO THE POINT OF TERRORISM” SILVERHAND?????

So yeah. This is the stuff.
