[Whack. Whack. Whack.]

[His fist struck the wall again and again in a steady rhythm, an enraged snarl evident on this Liquid's face.]

[He hated himself. No, hated his alternate--that person he never would be. it was his fault, his fault all his fault that Otacon was so broken and suffered so much. He couldn't vilify that Liquid for killing Snake

Don't start, Otacon.

[liquidouroboros]

[Flatly:] It'll heal.

[liquidouroboros]

...

[Taking this anger out on Otacon was exactly what he didn't want to do.]

[So he just held out his broken hand in silence.]

[liquidouroboros]

..fine. Let's go.

[He pulled his hand away and walked to the closest infirmary.]

[liquidouroboros]

...

[No. No he can't. So Otacon would just be getting pulled into a hug.]

[liquidouroboros]

I love you. You know that, right?

[liquidouroboros]

...I need to learn to stop talking to my damned alternates, that's what.

He...took over Shadow Moses. He killed that world's Snake and hurt you so badly, and yet he still has you working with him.
