liquidation[Who’s blond, angry, and ranting at his Pokegear? If you guessed ‘Liquid goddamn Snake’, you get a prize.]
I do not care who all of you are, or where I am, or how I have come to be here. I do not care if I have been spirited off to a strange world or if I am hallucinating though the latter seems much more likely than the former. Bloody Stinger missiles. Such mere details are irrelevant until I have gained the knowledge of one thing, and one thing only!
[dramatic pause]
The location of one man, the one man amongst the billions of wretches filling this miserable earth whose every breath is an affront to me. The light to my darkness, the flesh of my flesh and blood of my blood, the man who casts a shadow that stretches to the end of the world! The man who stands high and secure upon an indomitable pedestal, the missing parts of my genetic legacy, who stole the birthright that should be mine! I will not rest until I find him! I will tear apart the fabric of this universe if I must!
My brother! Solid Snake!
[Protip: the prize is a rant.]

[There's a dull fuzz of static as she calls. No video... for the moment.]
... Liquid?
[Audio]
Date: 2012-08-21 01:19 am (UTC)Yes. Do you have information for me?
[Audio]
Date: 2012-08-22 09:21 pm (UTC)You don't remember me?
[The voice is a little hoarse, a little smoky-sounding, but she figures it can't sound TOO different...]
[Audio]
Date: 2012-08-23 02:34 am (UTC)[An annoyed sigh] At least give me something to go on. Have I threatened you before?
[Audio]
Date: 2012-08-23 04:17 am (UTC)We got drunk once in a city called Violet.
We used to spar.
Traveled together from Azalea to Goldenrod and lived down the hall from each other for months.
... Do you not remember this place?
[Audio]
Date: 2012-08-24 05:24 pm (UTC)Vaguely. While I do appreciate the thread of continuity, this hallucination is twelve years old and I hardly considered it important enough to try remembering all the details.
[Audio]
Date: 2012-08-26 08:05 pm (UTC)[... And then, in a dull tone (because it FIGURES. It just FIGURES...):]
Nice.
Something tells me you're gonna have a hard time adjusting to this place.
Re: [Audio]
Date: 2012-08-26 08:29 pm (UTC)I've adapted to far worse places.
[Audio]
Date: 2012-08-26 10:50 pm (UTC)I know.
That's why I think you're gonna have a hard time.
[Audio]
Date: 2012-08-27 12:40 am (UTC)I don't follow you. What could possibly be in this rose-tinted world that would give me pause?
[Audio]
Date: 2012-08-27 02:36 am (UTC)[SORRY LIQUID SHE'S HAD A REALLY BAD MONTH AND DOESN'T APPRECIATE BEING CALLED A HALLUCINATION.]
[Audio]
Date: 2012-08-27 03:39 am (UTC)[He's been called a lot worse than a douchebag in his day, and by much more important people than a teenage girl.]
[Audio]
Date: 2012-08-27 10:47 pm (UTC)Right. Lemme know how that works out for you.
[Audio]
Date: 2012-08-28 12:46 am (UTC)[Liquid was not exactly what one would call the subtle type. If he got up to something, pretty soon people would know about it.]
[Audio]
Date: 2012-08-28 04:03 am (UTC)[She lets out a gruff, surly huff and promptly hangs up. Her patience had been worn thin as tissue paper with everything that had been going on, and a dear friend who was suddenly even nastier than he'd started out as all the way back then is exactly what she doesn't have the presence of mind to deal with right now.]
