[ This face isn't one that has been seen over the network before. Or rather, not this version of this face. Snake has a facial structure that's nearly identical to Liquid, though their hair colors are different. He also resembles Big Boss, but he's younger and has both of his eyes.

Despite the fact that this is his first time doing this, Snake doesn't bother introducing himself. There's no preamble at all, really. He's not that diplomatic of a person on a good day, and right now he's pissed. ]

I just got out of cryo. [ He's broadcasting from his room, and despite how disoriented his awakening was, he's got a fresh uniform on and comes across as relatively put-together, save for that undercurrent of anger. ] How long was I out? What did I miss?

I know other people have been through the same thing. Did you ever have any side effects after the fact? [ He hasn't heard of such a thing, but being unconscious for any length of time is enough to make a guy paranoid. His expression is harsh and determined as he addresses the MID's camera. ] I think if the captains are going to put us in cold storage without our permission, they need to explain why.

[ With that, the feed cuts. ]

[Liquid had kind of already dropped hints on wanting to kill Big Boss without even realizing it, since he seemed to know about his childhood attempts to kill Venom already. He could have totally extrapolated something of it, right?]

Fine.

[And there he is, lounging in his chair again, a shiteating grin on his face, as if his posture had held no hostility before.]

Figured you'd end up seeing things my way.

[Not in the least, but he's still considering it something of a victory.]

[ Could Liquid be more childish about all this? It's enough to raise Snake's blood pressure, but he knows that letting it get to him too much will only encourage Liquid.

So he goes with the calm and collected route instead. ] You keep telling yourself that. [ Act high and mighty enough, and it's bound to get under his brother's skin.

Snake ends the call before Liquid has the chance to reply. ]
