[001] Video

[volginswaifu]

[The NV flickered to life, it's view focused down towards fine military boots contrasting against a dirty floor. A certain Russian talked aloud, apparently unaware he was being watched.]

I can't believe this! [His tone was clearly offended, disgusted even.]

I need to call Zhenya... [He sigh heavily and the screen shook softly as Ivan seemed to

[There is a shirtless man staring at you.]

You do realise you're not even holding that correctly, don't you? Imbecile.

[Raikov scowls, because when he'd sent the message out earlier he really had no idea what he was doing. At least he knew better now, so the camera was centered on his face.

...Which was now a tiny little square in the corner, dominated by Liquid's feed. How dare that bastard overshadow Ivan Raikov.]

What? Shut up. Who do you think you are?

[He stared at the man's chest absently, eyes sliding over to his own feed now and then. Such beauty, both of them...]

I? I am Liquid Snake.

[There was a dark laugh. Liquid gestured dramatically as he spoke, speaking with his hands as much as his words.]

And you are a pissy little brat who doesn't act like any decent soldier I know.

[volginswaifu]

Nice name. [Sarcasm.]

[He scowled, leaning closer to the camera as if to intimidate; it only blurred him.]

Watch who you're talking to, Snake. Wait...huh--! [His eyes widened and the feed was suddenly cut short.]

[INCOMING CALL // VIDEO: PUSH SELECT]

[ysobritish]

...?

[Confused, he casually recalls the man.]

Something the matter, princess?

Voice

[volginswaifu]

[Ivan answers; he's on Voice this time because of a slipped finger. Such a disappointment too...

His tone is uneven and suspicious.]

...You again. You're supposed to be dead.

Voice

[ysobritish]

[With a sigh, he switches to voice too.]

Unfortunately for you, I'm very much alive. And I don't know you. What, are you one of Gurlukovich's men?

[There was scorn in his voice at the sound of the name.]

[volginswaifu]

Gurlukovich? Gurlukovich works for me, not the other way around. Don't forget that.

[A chair creeks as Ivan adjusts his position.]

The Boss threw you into the river--The Colonel saw it. How could you possible be alive?!

[ysobritish]

You're babbling. And delusional. I don't care who works for you, imbecile.

[A derisive snort and he looks away.]

Wrong Snake.

[Anything involving The Boss had to be... him.]

[volginswaifu]

Keep talking that way and we'll see who's truly the idiot here.

[Ivan hissed.]

There's more of you?

[ysobritish]

If you're looking for a fight, that's always an option.

[Liquid laughs darkly.]

Brother goes by the same name... but the one you seek is Father. He left us recently.

[volginswaifu]

Please, I'm a highly trained Spetsnaz. It would hardly be a fight.

[Not that Ivan minded the chance of beating somebody up.]

So he's your father...well, if you want to follow in his soggy footprints so badly~

[ysobritish]

You're right. You're a mincing pansy. I'm former SAS and the leader of FOXHOUND. I think it would be over fast. Such a pity. You'd be down in a moment.

[A cruel laugh. Oh, baby, you just pissed him off big time.]

Still at the baseball diamond, or did you leave?

[volginswaifu]

Shut your mouth, Teabag! You obviously have no idea who you're talking to.

[Ivan was just as pissed off.]

I've been in my apartment this whole time.

[Granted it wasn't well lit and hard to see.]

[ysobritish]

...

What the devil did you just call me?!

[Oh, if he ever meets you, the first thing he'll do is punch you in the pretty face.]

I know full well who you are. GRU Spetsnaz, Major Raikov. You stated it yourself. Nothing more than a weakling.

[volginswaifu]

I called you what you are, Teabag.

[He scowled, offended.]

The Spetsnaz are the best Russia has to offer, and you're calling me a weakling?
