**Habits:**

Harmful:

Smoking (implied/possible): Though not explicitly shown, the general military atmosphere of the era and his cynicism hint he may smoke. A common stereotype/reality for high-stress professions. Not shown explicitly, but fits the image.

Cynicism/Sarcasm (as defense): Can manifest as a harmful habit in communication, especially with rookies or "rear-echelon types." Can demoralize or irritate others.

Non-Harmful / Neutral:

Constant Vigilance: Even in relative calm, scans surroundings, assesses threats, escape routes, cover.

Fast Reaction: Always ready for action.

Weapon Check: Before ops and after combat, instinctively checks weapon condition and ammo.

"Everlasting" Habits (Characteristic Behaviors):

Dark Humor: Jokes in the bleakest and most dangerous situations. His trademark and coping mechanism ("Didn't want to live forever anyway!").

Sarcastic Remarks: Constantly makes biting comments about the situation, enemies, command, or even comrades (especially Soap early on).

Professional Restraint: Doesn't panic, doesn't yell unnecessarily. Communicates information clearly and concisely. His voice (Craig Fairbrass's voice acting) is usually calm, even when sarcastic, but can become harder under pressure.

Loyalty and Teamwork: Despite sarcasm, utterly reliable in combat, will cover a comrade, follows orders. Develops respect for Soap over the course of the games.

Respect for Price: Treats Captain Price with deep respect and trust, follows his orders unquestioningly. "Captain" or "Sir."
