014 [ video/action ] 4TH WALL
[ Snake had started to wish that he'd believed the various people telling him something weird was going on. Ash had been mentioning the lack of newbies in New Bark Town, other people mentioned the shift in weather, or how their Pokémon had been acting weird...
But Snake had just blocked it all out. He'd been too concerned with traveling to Violet City. It had been a long trek, and the weather had been too hot for that kind of traveling... It made it much longer, considering all the breaks he and Otacon took. His old body just couldn't make the trip in this heat... And it could have been because he was really sick of Violet City, despite having never been there this time around. So what should have been a single week ended up taking nearly two...
But throughout all of that, Snake hadn't taken to heart anything anyone had been saying, and now as a large Gekko loomed before him, the old soldier was wishing he'd paid a little more attention.
The creature let out a large "mooo", lifting up a single leg and attempting to slam it down on Snake. Luckily, Snake had started wearing his sneaking suit under his clothes, allowing him to perform difficult actions a bit easier... David let out a grunt, running back from the creature and dodge-rolling in order to avoid that foot. A cloud of dust and dirt flew up into the air, and the Irving readied its machine gun, trying to find Snake in the cloud.
It began to scan the area, looking for specific heat signatures... Yet finding none. The old man couldn't have gone far, but it didn't even appear to exist anymore! Letting out a disappointed sounding "moo", the Gekko turned around and began to slowly walk down the road, scanning around and searching out a new target. ]
~~~
[ Once the cloud had cleared, if one looked closely, they might notice the dirt-shaped man lying on the ground. Feeling that the Gekko had walked far enough, Snake slowly pushed himself up off the ground, the octo-camo reverting to its natural state. He let out an exhale, and pulled out his Gear and made a video post. ]
This is Snake. If you know what's good for you, stay away from Violet City and the surrounding area... We've got Gekko.
[ He knew he'd taken QUITE A GAMBLE on whether or not his octo-camo would work or not, but since it DID, he'd taken a quick check of his inventory and found his M4 Custom. It wouldn't do much against a Gekko, but it was at least SOMETHING. He just hoped no one would come to Violet, especially since it was THIS time of year... ]
[ooc: IGNORE SNAKE'S WARNINGS, EVERYONE'S ALLOWED \8D/ It might be pretty funny if people mistake it for a Pokemon because LOOK AT IT. IT'S A GIANT THING THAT MOOS. Also how did Snake throw off all his outer clothes before using his octocamo? ... WHO CARES METAL GEAR WE DON'T ASK THESE KINDS OF QUESTIONS ]

action;
He's still not sure who this is because it can't be Big Boss, it can't be Solidus, and it certainly isn't Solid Snake, right?]
I've been here before. Though it was years ago, and it wasn't a long stay.
[Or, more accurately, The Machine has screwed with his memory since he never actually left.]
action;
[ What what what. Had Ocelot been here even before Snake was? That wasn't right... Unless all the people that were with him back then had all went back home, there'd be no one here still to remember him.
Snake is looking PRETTY bewildered. ]
That's... I want to say it's impossible, but hell, there's a damn Gekko here and magical creatures running all over the place. Not really the time to debate "possibilities".
Do you have anything on you that's stronger than a revolver?
action;
Ocelot's enjoying that look of bewilderment to much to be helpful at the moment.]
Unfortunately not.
There must be another way to disable it.
action;
Unfortunately, I'm not as agile, and I don't use a sword. And I bet you don't either.
[ He glanced at him, and then the missing arm. ]
... Oh wait, too soon, right?
action;
I'm not familiar familiar with that name, I'm afraid.
[He is familiar with the term "cyborg ninja" but that was in reference to Gray Fox.]
What's your name?
[Hold on here, he's pretty sure he knows who you are even though it should be impossible.]
action;
[ And of course it dawns on him that since this was an earlier version of Ocelot, then that would mean that of course he wouldn't recognize Snake.
The old solder stood his ground, though his posture seemed to falter a bit. ]
... Solid Snake.
action; sorry this is so late, I thought I'd replied to it already
Yes, it makes sense now. The voice is familiar. He was always the son who sounded closest to Big Boss in his youth, after all. How he'd come to live into old age, Ocelot couldn't be sure. Perhaps it was luck. Or perhaps the Patriots had gotten sloppy.
He laughs. It's a dark, amused noise.]
Of course. I should have expected as much.
That is A-OKAY
[ He knew what, of course. What happened to him was kind of funny, in a cruel and morbid kind of way... Snake just didn't enjoy hearing Ocelot laugh at him. Reminded him too much of the Liquid he had to deal with in 2014. ]
no subject
A shame, really.]
Nothing.
I'm simply surprised.
no subject
Yeah, well you're not the only one.
[ He frowned at Ocelot, taking out a Pokeball. ] We're going to have to beat that thing. I don't really have anything that can defeat it here; and we're out of big guns... [ He glares at Ocelot's stupid revolver. ] So we'll just have to deal.
[ Tossing the Ball, a large Rock Snake emerged, roaring proudly. It was S2. ] I'll just have to use brute force... its bullets won't be able to hurt a rock.
no subject
We'll have to improvise.
[At least Ocelot is going to agree for now. He grabs at one of the Pokeballs around his waist. Really, he shouldn't, given how unhappy both of them were, but this really isn't the time for that so he tosses it anyway. A Ghost-type emerges, making an unhappy noise as soon as it spots Ocelot, but he waves to indicate the Gekko.
Fighting something that could actually harm Genya doesn't seem to faze him.]
