Look, if I've been seeing you for anything regularly I need you to come by later. I'm not going through this shtak again and am packing up to head out the very next chance I have. But I'm not leaving any loose ends.

Get your asses down here like they're on fire. We need to treat your aging right now. It'll take you being in cryo for a day. Sorry if it puts a crimp in your plans but basically thanks to these wankspatters you have no time left. It has to be done now.

Move it.

[ It had, naturally, been Snake's first thought when he'd realized the amount of time that had passed seemingly without anyone's notice. He knows the way his genes are programmed and he knows the accelerated aging that awaits him if he doesn't do anything about it, having experienced that firsthand now.

Once they're back on the Moira, he can't help but take a look in the mirror, searching for any signs of it starting. It's hard to say if he simply looks a year older or if there's more to it than that, but he's quick to respond when Meh's call comes, having anticipated this. ]

Just a day? I think I can put up with that. I'm on my way.

I got your pillow fluffed and the nightlight on.

I'm going to leave all the information here. This should work, but if you meet anyone else with this problem, let them know there's a base for some fixes. It shouldn't be too difficult for the staff here to adjust their treatments.

Appreciate it, Doc.

[ Snake would like to believe there won't be anyone else showing up on this ship with the same specific problem, but clones are apparently far more common than they should be, so fine. He'll be in charge of that if he has to be.

Although... wait. There's something about the way that Meh is talking... ]

You going somewhere?

I just lost a whole year of my life. And was reasonably prepared to have sex with people that I wasn't even attracted to. There are a lot of things I will tolerate being done to me but not that, and not with the claim that it's for my comfort and benefit.

Sure it's not the ship's fault directly. They just crashed here. But I'd rather go find a stationary location again. I feel a hell of a lot better defending the fort than pulling some epic ancient bullshit journey.

Besides, Med Bay is full of capable doctors now. They can handle it.

[ Snake listens to the explanation in silence, and it's not really something that he can argue with either. It may not be the ship's fault this time, but it has been its fault in the past and everyone's bound to hit a breaking point. Even then, Snake would rather not try and fend for himself in the far reaches of space, but if Meh doesn't have a problem with that then more power to her.

He's pretty sure she's got experience with space travel, unlike him, so it makes sense. ]

Well...

[ Okay, this is awkward. Snake takes a few seconds to fight for his words. ]

You did a lot of good for me while you were here. I won't forget that. Or... I'll try not to, anyway. Who knows with this ship.

Well, that's something, anyway.

Some people did take what happened with them back home- so if you keep this? Make the most of it. And do me a favor, fuck over the people that would do things like that.

[She won't specifically say what in public. But she has strong feelings, enough to share that they can change things.]

[ Snake would like to hope he could take this back with him, but he's not convinced it will be that easy for him. Still, if Meh's managed to buy him some extra time he's sure as hell going to make the most of it. ]

Believe me, that's the plan.

Anything else you want me to take care of in your absence?

[ It seems like the least that he can do. ]

I didn't really have a lot of friends so I couldn't tell you to look out for anyone.

Just look out for yourselves, I guess. Close enough.

[Maybe one day she'll actually find someone she can be personable with.]

[ Don't worry, Meh, the number of people he could call friend here can probably be counted on one hand. ]

I'll look out for as many people as I can.

[ It's not much of a promise, but it's something.

At that point he's reached the medbay, so he ends the call on his MID and walks right up to Meh, nodding in greeting. ]

So, how do we do this? I just get in the cryo pod?
