First [Video/Action for Mahogany Town]

[lionedace]

Ah, excuse me...is this thing even on? [He taps the receiver a couple times, looking a bit frustrated as he tries to make sure its active. Technology was never really his big thing, though he did try to keep himself up to date. For those with an astute knowledge in the region, it was clear that Ace was in Mahogany Town.] I'm sorry, but I think I

[of course. of course ace would show up. all of snake's surprise had been exhausted the moment he showed up, and he would be a lot more upset... if the last time he saw this man wasn't in the backseat of a car, tied up and pretty much helpless.

still, he's keeping a careful, polite distance. his voice is calm, but sharp:]

Ah. Isn't that a familiar voice?

[ voice ] 1/?

[lionedace]

--!!!

[That voice.]

[ voice ]

[lionedace]

["We're going to...burn to death...together."

No. No. No No No No No No No!]

You...

[ voice ] 3/3

[lionedace]

--What do you want from me!?

[He shouted out frantically, almost dropping the receiver out of fear. The monster was here. The monster that sent him to hell. Was he really in hell then!?]

[ voice ]

[poliswag]

[... my. what a reaction. snake is a bit shocked by the sheer hysteric voice that comes out of the gear, so different from the man who had quietly given up, last he saw him.

was it because he was free and he was contacting him? or...]

Nothing, at the moment. [or... actually...] Rather... I suppose it would be too much to ask for your location at the moment, wouldn't it?

[ voice ]

[lionedace]

[He took a moment to compose himself, but the shaking of his hands became apparent as the camera of the gear began to jolt around ever so slightly.]

H...How am I supposed to know? All I know is that I'm in some place called Johto!

[ voice ]

[poliswag]

Signs exist... Ace. [Honjou. he pauses. well, obviously that didn't work. a small sigh, before he continues:] New Bark, I'd assume.

[ voice ]

[lionedace]

Well excuse me for worrying about things a bit more pressing than a sign!

[Seriously what is up with you people and these little details! He sighs and looks around, until he finds a sign that says the town name. Mahogany Town.]

I'm in--

[But then he stops himself. No wait a goddamn minute.]

Why do you want to know where I am?

[ voice ]

[poliswag]

[oh, ace. you're so cute. or, in other words, completely frustrating sometimes. not that snake is surprised--ace should, by all means, be careful. they weren't exactly on good terms.]

So I'm aware of your location. What else would I do with that information? [he flexes his wrist--not like ace can see, but the entire conversation just throws him off.] I'm sure you'll end up relocating eventually. [go, ace. run away.]

[ voice ]

[lionedace]

...For the love of all that is sacred, please don't insult my intelligence. I am not an idiot.

[ voice ]

[poliswag]

I was doing nothing of the sort. [a sigh.] Let's try something else. What's the last thing you remember before ending up here?

[ voice ]

[lionedace]

[Oh that does it.]

Now you really are calling me an idiot. Or what, did you get amnesia and forget what happened in the incinerator?!

[ voice ]

[poliswag]

Not at all. [that answers his question somewhat, at least. though he's thinking of a completely different time.] I would, unfortunately, never forget something like that.

[ voice ]

[lionedace]

Then you understand why I have no desire to want to do anything with you. Okay! So...so stay away, Snake! I mean it!

[He looks at the Growlithe for a moment, wondering if he can use it's fire to burn Snake or something. Anything to get this monster away from him.]

[ voice ]

[poliswag]

And you think to avoid the rest of us, as well? [not hinting who else is here, but he's still slightly puzzled that ace is so frantic over talking to him.] Most--if not all of us--are aware of what you've done.

[ voice ]

[lionedace]

...Hah. I guess that settles it. I really am in hell. [He has no clue who else is here other than Snake and Santa, but he knows they all know.] I never imagined it would filled with so much life.
