[VIDEO] - because Liquid is a derp 8|

[ysobritish]

[The camera focuses easily on the "strange" man looking into it. His eyes hidden by dark aviators, his usually shirtless torso clothed in a tanktop, Liquid Snake stares into the camera with a cold expression on his face. The tattoo on his arm is covered by makeup, and when he speaks, his english accent is replaced by an American accent. It is far

OH YOU WHORE I LOVE YOU -- private VIDEO

[heavendivided]

[What. Too much information. McDonnel? Alaska? DAUGHTER? But -- this IS Kaz, right? The glasses, the way he talks, no doubt about it! Maybe a little older but that shouldn't make a difference, right? RIGHT?]

Kaz...? What the hell are you on about? When did you get here?

I HAD TO DO IT. ARE YOU PROUD OF ME? [Video - Private]

[ysobritish]

[BINGO. Oh, daddy dearest, what a sight for sore eyes.]

[He smiles at the sight, a completely friendly smile.]

Well, whaddaya know. Big Boss himself, after all this time. Got here a little while ago. It's been a few years now, hasn't it? Too long, really.

YES VERY AUGH WHAT A STUPID TRAP BUT IT WORKS [Video - Private]

[heavendivided]

[And BB doesn't suspect anything. Be glad he doesn't want to get into naked shower fights right away. Or share a box with you.]

A few years? I only saw you about a month ago. That means...

[Video - Private]

[ysobritish]

[He's exceedingly grateful that he doesn't know about any of that.]

That's right. You couldn't tell? You look a lot younger than I remember.

[There's a light pause as he studies the other man.]

Good, you've been keeping in shape. I don't have to reprimand you, at least.

[Video - Private]

[heavendivided]

[He studies him too, and finds he doesn't have changed all that much. Except maybe for the shades, but shades are shades, right. He sounds...relieved.]

Reprimand me? You of all people should know that I'm a big boy and can look after myself.

Nh. Age's been treating you well, I suppose...how long has it been for you? I'm still stuck in the seventies, I'm afraid.

[Video - Private]

[ysobritish]

You may be a big boy, but I got used to having to reprimand your son. Good kid. Kinda bad at looking after himself.

[Seventies... so they'd be kids then. He wondered faintly if his father had even met him yet in his world.]

You know people of my heritage tend to age well. It's been a few decades, I'm afraid. We just celebrated the millenium a couple yeas ago.

[Video - Private]

[heavendivided]

My 'son'?

[How does he know about that--?]

Heh. Looks like you had better luck when it came to genes, then.

...You've really met Snake then. [Or one of them.] Hope he didn't give you too much trouble. Do I want to know the details?

[Millenium, huh...that's over twenty years. A lot of things can change in such a long time.]

[video - private]

[ysobritish]

Oh, I've been training him for a few years now. He's not a patch on you, Boss, but he's good. Got potential. I haven't been training for a while though. I'm long retired.

[Oh, indeed they could... like a certain Father going from this oddly pleasant person to the deranged lunatic who died at his son's hands.]

[video - private]

[heavendivided]

..Yeah, he's...hmm. You retired?

[video - private]

[ysobritish]

Few years now. I help train the Alaskan scouts in my spare time, but mostly it's a pretty peaceful existence. Took a while to get used to, actually.

[video - private] HE'S GETTING SUSPICIOUS, WHERE'S OTACON

[heavendivided]

...Really. Weird, that's not like you at all, Kaz. Why did you retire?

[video - private] SUP BBY

[otaku_mk_ii]

[Just in your call, hacking your conversations.]

Snake--I mean, uh, not Snake, er...Big Boss, sir, I really should figure out what to call you...

[Ahem.]

Th-that's not McDonell Miller! Liquid killed him before Shadow Moses and preteneded to be him to manipulate Snake!

[video - private to Otacon]

[heavendivided]

....

And you tell me that now?! Damn it, Otacon!

[brb dealing with millerquid]

[video - private to BB]

[otaku_mk_ii]

S-sorry! I'm still getting used to hacking these filters, a-and besides, I wanted to be sure it was really Liquid and not just Miller!

[video - private to Otacon]

[heavendivided]

Then make yourself useful in the future and hack as many conversations as you can!

Hrngh, I'll meet with him. Looks like I have no other choice at this point.

[video - private to BB]

[otaku_mk_ii]

Y-yessir. I-I understand.

Wait, WHAT?! Are you out of your-- [You already know that, Otacon.]

...You can't! Liquid's out to kill both you and Snake!
