okay but real talk can we talk about post game au where vaas goes back to rakyat. like irregardless of jason’s choices hoyt is dead, buck is dead, citra is either dead or is going to be, and vaas is tired. tired of being someone else’s pawn, tired of not being home, tired of not having his people. there are plenty of those scattered without prior leadership - and even some, fewer, who must detest citra / dennis’ rule. so? uh. yeah, vaas taking back rook islands? but vaas, who tries to be a somewhat… better ruler than he was beforehand. i mean he’s still shitty but - it’s better than hoyt, and a hell of a lot better than his sister? at least in his eyes,

ay good point micheal talked about in an interview is that vaas? is insecure. i don’t know if i touched much on this here yet, but it especially ties into jason, more than anything else. but you can tell by the absolute lack of eye-contact he makes with jason, most esp during his famous insanity monologue.
it also ties into the distinct difference in vaas’ behavior and characterization between far cry 3 and other content. it’s because in far cry 3, the times we see vaas? he’s so, so, so intimidated by jason. at least, post the first scene, wherein after he’s got the tatau. because citra’s chosen jason, and vaas’ jealous and disgusted and so betrayed.
but honestly lack of eye contact means you intimidate the fuck out of him, in some shape or form. the pirates and privateer’s he’s learned to be fearless in the end, but citra, hoyt, buck, and jason all in their own ways scare him, and therefor, he won’t make much eye-contact at all.

vaas keeps his hands and arms bandaged ( honestly , it’s rare to see him not wrapped in the damn things , torso and leg wise as well ) not only because well - he likes the way they look , but to be honest ? he’s almost always injured .
as for scars , vaas has plenty and is unafraid to let them show , seeing them as a sign of strength and marks of his survival . from his trademark scar gashing across the side of his head , some notable ones include the long stretching tiger claws that have cradled his side and gut ; the two - three bites on his legs and arms , a few bullet holes here and there , and if the verse is post far cry 3 , a nasty , treacherous pit of pink near over his heart , where a blade just missed the damn thing .

LINGUISTICS .
first of all , did you know the rook islands are fucking real ? like , that’s crazy man . second of all , based on the recognized national languages , plus vaas’ status there , as well as the obvious affinity for spanish and english he shows in game , vaas speaks at least four languages fluently ( ENGLISH , SPANISH , BAHASA MELAYU , RUSSIAN ) and many more in bits / parts , not only because of the pirates under his command , but the prisoners he took in .
also ? vaas likes to learn . this affects more than languages , yes , but it certainly helps , and as a man who likes to talk , it certainly shows .

wait does vaas know about. citra dying
PROBABLY NOT ! PROBABLY NOT !
then again it’s verse dependent on what jason does , so i’m not saying he WILL see her again , but if he does - he’s going to die . right there . good - bye , ( i’d love ? to have some genuine talk between jason and vaas re: citra and by extent their history , what happened after , ect . ) but also , thing is , he wouldn’t know either way because he was stabbed . i’m going on the rough time line that it took a long time for him to recover , and it was during the process of a few pirate loyalists moving him off island / into hiding . so at that point - they were pretty off grid / contact with the island and as to what was going on was spotty / sketchy at best . and by the time vaas recovered ? it was probably too late / there was no communication at all , and he would have been forced to move on , no matter how much he may have wanted to come back . ( reclaim what was his , despite those few loyalists left )

random vaas headcannons & backstory .
vaas and citra are half siblings / his mother killed his father shortly after he was conceived , and never really spoke about him . vaas found out about his father by finding what few belongings of his remained , naught but the salvaged parts of a tourist’s life gone wrong .
vaas’ mother is where citra earned her idea of creating the perfect warrior - when citra was born a girl , not long after she made a “warrior” out of vaas’ father and had him , it was through vaas’ mother’s training and conditioning vaas was slowly growing into said “perfect” warrior .
that was , until his mother wanted him to kill citra as a part of a final test ( this is mirrored in when citra asks jason to kill liza ) , and as vaas had quoted - my first kill was for her - instead of striking his knife into citra , he killed their mother .
not long after citra inherited the rakyat , and with vaas at her side , things only grew worse . citra grew into the same demands and ideology as their mother , and on one hand while the things she asked of vaas grew more and more daunting , vaas’ addiction to drugs grew , driving a wedge between them as the privateers and pirates slowly invaded .
and when the time came that citra saw a coming war and wanted to create the perfect warrior - one where her so called brother had failed ? vaas refused her , and the blade she had planned on driving into his heart was aimed for his skull , instead leaving him with a scar he still has to this day .
after wrestling away from citra and away from the rakyat , vaas joined the pirates , and slowly , but surely , earned his given title as their leader from hoyt , becoming the pirate king .
vaas has had multiple exotic / native pets to the rook islands throughout his time there , including a tiger , jaguar , snake , ect . vaas also has an affinity for most animals , and enjoys their company greatly , believing respect given is respect in kind ; this also goes for nature .
vaas’ dependency with drugs was at an all time high before jason’s attempt on his life , but after his recovery he’s been surprisingly tame about it , and focuses more on moderate drinking , light drug use , and clings to a love of smoking .
vaas is rakyat ( melayu ) / hispanic , but when asked will cling more so to his hispanic heritage .
vaas has a stretching tatau upon his back that starts on his lower back up to blossoming on his shoulder - blades and ending on his nape . it’s covered in burns , scars , and other covering tattoos in an attempt at it’s disfigurement .
vaas’ most identifiable scars include the one running parallel to his mohawk , a set of tiger claws along his hips / sides , and if post - game , a deep gouge of flesh over his heart .
vaas speaks spanish , english , bahasa melayu , and russian , but also knows bits and pieces to many others / is always willing to learn more .
vaas loves movies , especially animated ones . he refers to them often .
vaas is a leader , but a drifter without anything to tie him down . on the islands he bounces around from place to place , and outside of such has difficulty ever setting down any roots .
vaas likes to twist other’s perceptions of things to suit his needs ; say , from a minor thing of saying his nickname is , jokingly , danger , since he doesn’t have one - to doing his damnest to create a false sense of security in someone only with the intention to mentally manipulate them to the point of no return . the need to do this could be born out of simple desire or boredom , too .
vaas keeps everything he has on him ; it’s the joy of many pockets and pouches , from a knife in the sheathe of his boots ; to a well - used notepad and carved pencil in pocket ; on his hip hangs a canteen ; a flask in pouch ; cash in a breast pocket ; more likely than not , a gun under his waistband . vaas is a one - man walking army , mind you .
on the note of said notepad , vaas both likes to sketch and needs a place to write down those quick , impulsive ideas of his before he looses them .
due to his injury sustained from jason’s knife , vaas is no longer as invincible as he once was . but like hell he’ll let it show , and while he may be this shy of weaker , the former king is in no way pathetic .
