Anybody get the Number off that Freight Train?

[Suddenly, having spent the past several days in that same Storage Closet in Groznyj Grad, (it was hard to tell being that he was indoors, inside of a box, with no windows, so it was kinda hard to tell the passing of time) John Doe, better known as Big Boss and a host of other code names, suddenly was back in the Nexus it seemed.  Growling, not the most comfortable landing he'd ever done but not at all hurt, John got to his feet, brushing himself off.  Sighing, he ran a hand through his hair, looking around.  He saw a rather large blood stain on the floor as well as bullet shells, broken pots and pieces of a door scattered about the hall not 10 feet away from where he was originally - well, obviously, whatever decided he needed to be here at the Nexus has a sick sense of humor. That, obviously, was the spot where that girl had sent him to make his maker again.]

God damn my luck...

[And so, Naked Snake set about to find himself an apartment again, sore and tired.  However, this time, he made his way a couple floors lower, away from the crazy psychic girl.  He decided that it'd be a good idea to not neighbors with a vendetta.  Finally finding a nice place, plenty of room for two, for whenever he managed to find Ocelot again,  he made himself at home, leaving the door open as he went about checking the place out, taking off his belt with all his gear and setting it on the couch.]

Finally... Mission Accomplished I guess...


[(ooc:so yes, this Big Boss is back; you're welcome to stop by and say hello as he settles in or bring him a house warming cake or... whatever...)]

[EVA had watched the ordeal unfold. She had kept a close eye on Snake as soon as he had arrived in the Nexus once more. She didn't immediately sought out to converse with him, if only to see where exactly he planned on going to. She knew by now that not everyone in this place was as trustworthy as they appeared on the outside, but the same applies to her of course. For a woman who never revealed her true name, she could only be trusted so much before questions were asked.]

[Silently, the femme fetale followed Jack back to his apartment. She hadn't a gift prepared for him other than perhaps herself.]

[A declaring rattle on the door gave her presence away.]

You've seen better days.

[It had been a good while since EVA had spoken to a version of Big Boss this young in appearance. She was very much aware of how delicate their relationship was, depending on what time Jack came from. She had met two others in the Nexus, both from varying times during the Snake Eater project. One was from after her supposed betrayal, but this EVA had yet to even claim the Snake of her world yet. Volgin was still very much alive much to her dismay.]

As have I.

[Taking that gaze as an invitation to enter, the spy strolls into the room at a leisurely pace and wanders into the kitchen. Her fingers curl around a chair, but she opts against seating herself for the time being.]

I can't complain. It's been quiet around here but I do what I can to make my day that much more interesting.

[A smile teases its way onto her glossed lips.]

Seeing you here is a diversion of my usual routine but I always manage to make time for a Snake.

I didn't say I enjoyed the quiet. It's why I try to make my life interesting.

[EVA knew it would take time before gaining Snake's trust again. She was fully aware of what she was capable of in the future, at least when regarding the other man and the completion of their mission, but the spy had yet to live through that. She had made a promise to another Big Boss here not to betray him; especially considering the information she had learned of becoming a surrogate mother to his children.]

I'm afraid I don't follow.

[She finally seats herself at the table, a leg crossing over the other as she quietly observes the man.]

I haven't completed my mission yet. I've barely even had the opportunity to seduce you. Whatever happened in your world has yet to happen to me.

As I said to another Jack, I don't intend to betray you.

Of course, Snake.

[EVA recalls certain versions of Snake being particularly sensitive about that name. Jack was a variation of John regardless, and it seemed more appropriate than addressing him by his true name. That was reserved for his older self.]

[For the spy, her feelings for the man were true. She never lied about that. She only lied about where her true loyalties lie, but as she had stated- she was willing to put that aside while living in this place. The Legacy had no meaning here. Life was meant to be lived in this place, and death did not exist for longer than three days, as this Big Boss was no doubt aware.]

I know you don't trust me, Snake. I don't know if you will ever trust me again, but I've no reason to lie to you in this place. I have nothing to lose, nothing to gain by directing you down a path of lies.

[She wraps her fingers around her glass, her eyes fixed on the soldier. She purses her lips in order to sip her own wine, savoring the taste.]

[Whenever the female watched a Snake eat, it always brought a smile to her lips. She couldn't help it; the way he ate was a desirable trait. She, too, enjoyed to savor every bite when she had the patience to do so. Yes, she was raised on fancier rations than the majority of soldiers in this building, but she had picked up a taste for snakes. Boas were her favorite, and she dared not to shy away from showing how delicious she found her food to be - even if it meant making a mess herself.]

Then perhaps we can have a fresh start. I know it will be difficult to look at me as anything else than what I've done in your world, but none of that applies here anymore. I don't want you to judge me based on actions that haven't happened.

[EVA rests her glass down on the table, a determined look piercing in her eyes.]

I won't lie; I'm finding it more and more difficult to stay sane in this place without someone needing me for business. I don't know what to do with myself, now that I'm a free agent. I was raised to follow orders, pretty much like you were, but under different circumstances.

[Her expression softens.]

It's why seeing you helps to break that infuriating routine. I love to deviate from my tasks.

If we continued to follow the rules, our lives would be incredibly different right about now. Had I not broken away from my sheltered life in the States, I never would have met you - or Adam for that matter.

[EVA ran the tip of her finger along the glass as she perches her elbow on the table. Her chin was cradled in her hand as she watched Big Boss in silence. This was probably the fourth or fifth time she had been denied, so she had prepared for the denial to John's heart before those words even left his mouth.]

I already know Adam wins you over. I don't intend on taking you from him.

[She sips her drink back within a few swallows, before lowering the glass again.]

There's more to me than my seductive charm, Snake.
