Spades Slick loves the candy Scottie Dogs. He always keeps a couple on him, and when he is offered a bottomless bowl of them, he fills his pockets and even his hat with a supply for later. Terrier Fancy Magazine, Ms. Paint, stabbing

He has incredible skill with bladed weapons, once beheading three opponents with a single swing of his RAPIER WIT.

He also has the ability to "flip his sprite" and reverse damage to the sides of his body (e.g. his right eye was stabbed out, but he could reverse it to his left at any given time). This is a reference to a common trick used in 2D video games; making a character look the other way simply by flipping the image of that character, like how Link becomes right-handed when he's facing east., supposedly Midnight Crew members can wield "Sinister Shadow Based Magic" but only Spades has shown anything resembling of the sort. Other than his hand glowing with a dark purple and transforming Mobster Kingpin into a Midnight Crew member, he hasn't really made much use of it. Midnight Crew members can also do a Hive Ragtime. Their Hive Ragtime, Fill'em With Midnight, allows Spades Slick to jazz up a piano hard enough for it to be ridden like a mechanical bull.

We later see Slick facing off against Snowman on a rooftop, presumably that of Scratch's manor. Snowman taunts him, telling him to draw, despite the fact that killing her would mean the end of the universe. With nothing in particular left to lose, or live for, Slick complies. At this point, the trolls' universe ends, and Spades Slick is somehow saved by Hussie from dying with it. Because of this, Jack Noir is in effect the one who directly destroys both universes.

While he was originally presumed dead with the destruction of the Alternian universe, Hussie claimed that he lived and that he was personally nursing him back to health, a claim that was later confirmed to be true. While Slick survived the destruction of the universe he was greatly injured and has been further cyborg-ified, and given a piece of red glass to replace his eye (this would later be used as an actual cybernetic eye, which confused Hussie quite a bit). When Andrew Hussie's building was invaded by Lord English, Hussie pushed Slick over the side of a balcony to save him, causing him to fall into the water below.

He was later seen to have survived the fall and had climbed up the side of the building. When he reached the top, he stood upright and accepted a glass of milk from the butler, showing that he was not fully bedridden. He then investigated the scene of Hussie's death, took the gun Lord English used to kill him, and met up with Ms. Paint.

After collecting his belongings from a box in one of the many pantries, Slick realizes that he has Die's doll in his possession. He then pulls out every one of the Felt mob's pins out-except Snowman's, reviving the Felt and claiming the position of their new boss. Slick offers Ms. Paint the possession of the eight-spot in the gang, and she accepts. Then Slick commands Crowbar to show them to a suitable hideout, and they walk through the fifth wall into Doc Scratch's old apartment. Hussie's centaur butler accompanies them. Eventually finding a suitable exit through Doc Scratch's grandfather clock, Slick puts the crew into Biscuits' oven, places the oven in his inventory as a playing card, and lights Doc Scratch's apartment on fire before going through the exit himself.

Once through, Slick sees that that the exit led to the Furthest Ring, where he stands inside of the server that activated the ~ATH program to summon Lord English. Looking up, he sees the Alpha Kids' Incipisphere, calls it a "jackpot"

My The Midnight Crew originated as Agents of Derse in the post-scratch trolls' session of Sburb. Spades Slick is the trolls' version of Jack Noir.

On one occasion, the Midnight Crew attacked the mansion of the Felt's boss, Lord English. While at the mansion, the Crew killed most of the Felt, but Hearts Boxcars, Diamonds Droog, and Clubs Deuce were presumably "killed" by temporal distortion. As Spades attempted to unlock the vault to Lord English's treasure, the Black Queen reappeared, now a member of the Felt by the name of Snowman. She destroyed the key to the treasure, removed Spades's arm, and locked him in the vault.

Spades' wounds.

However, by flipping his sprite, Slick was able to use the barcode on his arm to enter the vault. Inside was a computer with twelve screens. The only active screen showed Karkat. Recognizing the young troll, Spades began to type Karkat a message. Slick had been watching the trolls run amok all along since he was locked in the vault, and is thoroughly aggravated by the fact they keep kissing every time he looks at the screen, yelling that he hates them all at Karkat.

After getting from the vault to Alternia's moon, he later on bursts into Doc Scratch's manor, with an eyepatch and robotic arm, dealing Scratch a vicious drubbing with the Cast Iron Horse Hitcher as Scratch tries to calm him down. This particular Spades Slick would have been killed by Quarters shortly after setting Scratch's manor on fire. However the killing of this possible future Slick is seen by Snowman, who proceeds to kill Quarters before he mows Slick down with minigun fire. After Spades' safety is ensured, he advances toward Snowman with Crowbar's crowbar, appearing to be attacking her. He then drops the weapon and proceeds to have a sloppy makeout session in Doc Scratch's home, to which the said Doctor reacts with shock and consternation. After Scratch shoos Snowman away, Slick proceeds to attack Scratch's grandfather clock with his crowbar, damaging it.

While both Spades Slick, the former Jack Noir, and Jack Noir, the Sovereign Slayer of the human session, are essentially the same person, their personalities are slightly different. Perhaps because Spades Slick wasn't tortured with horrible clothes as much as Jack Noir was, because he didn't get the ring, because of his experiences following Karkat around, or just because there isn't much to do in a post-apocalyptic wasteland other than create. While Jack Noir has an all consuming, homicidal rage for all existence, killing innocent people for pleasure, Slick is a far more constructive thinker, seeking to rebuild civilization in his ideal of a noir style gangster utopia. Anyone who tries to cause him trouble is a dead man, most specifically anyone related to the Felt, but he has an agreeable relationship with anyone who works alongside him, even if he hates them a little.

Slick has no tolerance for things he doesn't want to do. His vicious demeanor, sarcastic nature and nasty attitude are readily apparent, and he exhibits a lack of concern for life that isn't his own. He is very black and white in his judgements, and quickly makes decisions with little to no forethought. His reactions to given commands are of swift and clear certainty. He will do the things he says he will do, or he will quickly end whatever he doesn't want to do. He is very temperamental, and when Slick is not involved with violence, his countenance is often surly and vulgar, albeit outwardly quiet. He keeps his thoughts to himself and responds with action rather than words. He is not very good at uttering cold blooded one liners, instead letting his knives do the talking for him. In the Blood Spade adventure he is seen using Occam's Razor to solve the problem of the pinned heist plans quickly and simply. If completely frustrated, he will succumb to soul-blackening rage and sport an unnecessarily elaborate assortment of fancy blades. In the Intermission he deals with whatever is in his way by often stabbing it or ignoring it. He seems to care a great deal what others (particularly Snowman) think of him, as he throws down his hat in disgust when she sees him Riding his Horse Hitcher and pretending to joust, claiming that he'll never live it down. He also berates Hearts Boxcars for leaving his SMUT around while privately assuring himself that no one would ever find him leaving "Terrier Fancy Magazine" lying around... and even if they did, that could be ANYBODY's copy. He is also very determined, seemingly never giving up in the face of any threat, fighting against the Felt, who outnumber and outgun his crew, and attempting to kill Doc Scratch, with the gun given to him by the Doc, even after Scratch had beat him to the edge of death. This validates Spades' total badassery and ability to not care and persevere even when the odds are infinitely stacked against him.
