[Snake's standing near Heather's room in the hotel. He's leaning against the wall beside her door... With Otacon and Liquid gone, Snake knew he would be the one taking care of Heather. He knew she didn't need it, but... he felt he should watch out for her anyway. She was a lot like him; which meant she also had a habit of getting into bad ( Read more... )

[BAH. Being taken care of? Heather could take care of herself, thanks. Or she thought she could. She's having some second thoughts because she's not entirely sure relying so heavily on Liquid and Otacon for two whole months hadn't made her go soft. That, and... Snake wasn't too far off about her having a tendency to get into bad situations.]

[In any case, maybe it's sixth sense or maybe she was expecting him to show up, but she opens the door and leans out.]

... Hey.

[She got back from seeing Liquid off not that long ago, and she looks... tired, and a little worried. Probably pretty obvious as to why.]

[She nods.]

[The room's sort of a mess, but then again, it's hard to expect much different from a teenager. The snow's still coming down outside, but Heather's Furret is sprawled luxuriously in front of the radiator like a happy fur scarf. She doesn't seem to be aware of her Trainer's melancholy.]

[Heather sits down on the end of the bed.]

Did you get to say goodbye to Otacon?

[ He nods, looking around the room. ] Yeah... He called me and we talked via Gear. [Frowns a bit.] Didn't want to face me I guess.

How about you?
