It's all Shoi's fault

tsaikoSchool and work are eating my soul, and have a sinking feeling may soon be using my bones as toothpicks after the meal. ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
miome is horrendously sick. How sick? Every time she coughs I expect to hear a "splut" sound as a lung finally comes up and hits the floor.
But this is not what this entry is about.
This entry is about the dream I had last night that was about, of all things, Metal Gear.
Sadly, I don't remember much of the dream. I do know that Snake was young(er) again. I was either playing the game or watching someone play the game. This is pretty common in my dreams. There may have been snarky commentary, but I can't remember it if there was.
At some point, you have to get Snake through a train yard without being spotted. There's one series of train cars that you absolutely do not want to hide under because as soon as you do, someone decides that the train has to be moved. Then Snake dies. Then of course there's someone yelling "Snaaaaaaake!" only in this case, the guards hear it. And then they have this conversation:
Guard 1: Did you hear that?
Guard 2: Hear what?
Guard 1: I heard someone yelling "snake."
Guard 2: I hope not. They give me the creeps. I try to avoid any place that has snakes.
Guard 1: *looks around at the OBVIOUSLY TROPICAL JUNGLE* Were they desperate for to make quota when they recruited you?
One of the points of the game is that if Snake dies, someone has to go get the body. So of course, they don't want the guards to find it because it'll make retrieving the body much harder. This comes into play later if you make Snake appear to get himself killed in a muddy cesspool. Instead of the usual "Snaaaaake!" you get a conversation between whoever the Medic is and what is supposed to be Snake's son. The conversation basically boils down to: You go get him out of the cesspool. No you do it. No you do it. I'm not doing it. Well, it has to be done.
It's even fun more fun because Snake is not dead. After the conversation goes on for awhile, Snake will start snarking at them for being so concerned about him. LOL.
One final thing worth mentioning. Snake's son looks an awful lot like Otacon without the glasses, a little more muscled, and with shorter hair. Guess we know who was spreading his genes around to make that kid. XD
