#okay ship rambling time
#so as you probably already know I consider these two to be the local Back-to-Back Badasses™ team
#but another big HC I have about them is that they're also each other's greatest moral support
#There was that line in [3.3 Circumstances] where Gist said he used to wonder whether he was doing the right thing until he met the Colonel
#and let's be real here /nobody/ says that unless there's some deep shit going on back there
#On Gist's end I have this idea that despite that trademark boombox voice and jolly good banter he's actually a really cynical fellow
#in the sense that he often drinks for fun but also often enough he drinks to forget
#when you've traveled all over the place and seen the same conflicts crop up time and again in all of them it's hard to deny any of it
#It was so bad that when Lawrence first scouted him out and eventually told him about the Order he could not even
#be arsed to think of it as different from any other paid job bcs eh another party jockeying for power in the world is business as usual
#But then he met the Colonel—the first Templar he'd seen who emphasized the Order's role and responsibility in creating a more peaceful world
#At first he finds it rather funny in a ”did u hear this man lol he can't be serious” sort of way
#but as time goes by he just...fell in love with that idealism
#Gist is a very pragmatic fellow and tbh he wouldn't really buy any dreamy talk easily
#but with this one guy he's willing to /try/ and take the shot
#and being someone who sees the world with whatever the opposite of rose-tinted glasses is
#Gist knows more than anybody how hard it can get to be someone trying to make a difference
#And despite the Colonel's immovable stoicism he /does/ have those moments where he feels a bit worn out from all that trying to do good
#And well Gist just made it his job to catch him when he falls
#It works out rather well bcs the Colonel's a bit of a...klutz when it comes to showing any vulnerabilities
#Leaning on people simply does /not/ come naturally to him
#But after all that time talking to Gist about what he's trying to do and /knowing/ that he can trust the man to stick by him until the end
#Well...it makes leaning on his shoulder just a bit easier
#(the other reason has something to do with how Gist is the only guy in the entire Rite who's noticeably taller than him but shhh)
#I mean it's no accident the Colonel asked Gist to be the guy who plays Shay's first mate
#Aside from the fact that Gist is described as a great actor
#who better to set as the ex-Assassin's handler than the guy he can trust the most? :^)
