Dr. Zor: *doing the hand-steeple thingy at a large conference table* I wish to know everyone's unique headcanon(s) about the origins of Agent Phoenix.
Handler: Well, he's clearly been educated through the military, I expect he found his way into the EOD after losing interest in mainstream special forces.
Dr. Prism: Uh, I don't know, I kinda get the vibe that he just walked into the Kinesium implant lab off the street...
Director Morales: "A farm horse and a war horse can each pull the same cart."
Phoenix: How about a convicted arsonist horse?
((I genuinely do want to know your Agent Phoenix origin ideas, though, please. :3c))
If you ask me, it’s like how James Bond has a women each movie but instead of a women Agent Phoenix just has insane sexual tension with each of their adversaries.
So imagine that the games are actually seasons of a sitcom. So each game it's own season. All of the characters are just that, characters and everyone is an actor. That being said, John Juniper is just John Juniper. He (like Wil Wheaton who plays him) will occasionally do cameos as himself in tv shows. So they ran with it and were like "hey do you wanna play yourself but as a way more egotistical version who ends up being a lackey for Dr. Zor? You get to die an epic death at the end?"
And of course he LOVES the idea. I expect you to die is one of his favourite shows after all! So he says yes and they film his season. He gets really attached to everyone and he is very sad that "he" dies. But then they air the season and people are outraged that John died! Or at least... Some people are.
It becomes one of those things like "who shot Mr. Burns?" In the Simpsons and the "sherlock didn't die when he fell" of Sherlock. Like people genuinely believe that it's all a ruse and it sparks outrage through the fandom. There are theories and debates about it. Even into season 3 people are looking for clues that John is coming back.
Then they approach John like "hey I know you are literally the best actor in the world now and this is just a silly little spy sitcom but will you please come back to make the fans happy?"
And he is overcome with joy! He ends up becoming the biggest thing that's ever happened in television history and all of the others (Phoenix, Roxana, Reginald, ect) all LOVE that their silly little show has become the most highly anticipated show ever.
So like is this a valid au? Can we make this happen?
most of these are from a LITTLE while ago , i kept thinking i'll post them later but i never did .. the orange ones are from today i had prism on my brain .. can you tell ?
wanted to express the frustration of prism arc through pre-ieytd3 and the game itself

sdiofhisdfhdios they do be irritating and then fabby will push him over the stairs
So I saw @ / LonelyWriter268 post about The Ski Lodge mission and it caused me to think more about Dr.Prism and that mission. It’s a bit long and it’s late so sorry about that.
Roxana left the agency because they didn’t believe in her robots. Zor used that to get the kinesum but Roxana was building her robots. What she thought of as her greatest creation.
Then Phoenix arrives at the lodge. They easily (more or less) destroy the 3 Robots that are trying to take them out. Then they get to the factory. And they see all of the Robots. And 1 agent up against hundreds of robots. If that fight happened there was no way Phoenix would come out alive. Roxana was talking about how Zor believed in her and that her robots would prove to be the superior agent. Then they all die due to project KBOOM. And Phoenix is horrified (at least I was) as this is how quick human agents could be taken out as well as seeing all the robots go down. And Dr.Prisim loses all of her robots and her helicopter starts to crash to the ground.
When Phoenix makes it down they see Roxana and the dying robot. Which is honestly a super sad scene. Then Dr.Prisim talks to the agent. Roxana wants to take Zor down. And then comes the line where she is like I don’t care if you stole this or are working for Zor. That she is going to take Zor down. And she never wants to see the agent again.
This confused me for the longest time. We are trying to take down Zor. why wouldn’t we work together? But their post may realize that Roxanne just lost everything. She has no one. She trusts no agency or has no company to fall back on. and most importantly, she just lost what she cared about creating most. she created these robots to be better agents because we know by the name of this game and through it, agents die a lot. So why wouldn’t you make an agent that couldn’t die? That, even if they did die, it wouldn’t matter cause you just had to back them up in a factory. So many lives would be saved. But since the agency rejected this idea, Roxana wouldn’t go to the agency because she doesn’t trust them. They didn’t want the robots, so why would they help her get revenge on Zor. And if Phoenix is working for Zor well they just blew up her greatest creation.e. But just their affiliation doesn’t seem like enough to never want to see Phoenix again. This is personal.
Phoenix does what no other agent can . They survive the unsurvivable. The death engine and the peace summit. And after what happened with the robots and project KBOOM why were the agency ever replace Phoenix with robots? It wouldn’t make sense. After all of Roxana’s robots are dead, never coming back, Phoenix lives. The one agent that the robots desperately needed to beat to prove that robots were superior was still alive. Also In this case it seems like because Phoenix was there all of the Robots came out to fight, making the perfect opportunity for KBOOM. If Phoenix wasn’t there the robots probably would have been fine for a bit longer.
So with all of these there was no way we were teaming up because Roxana doesn’t trust the agency, blames (or is just a bit upset) the agent for all of the robots deaths, and the agent continues to survive and prove her life work wrong.
So she leaves to avenge her creation as what they were made to prevent happened to them and what they were made to replace outlived and outperformed them.
This realization kinda shook me. I mean you have no one, nothing, and your life work is proved wrong. Why would you ever work with someone who made that happen even not intentionally.
