Danger zone

[whyamisobritish.livejournal.com]

[A cat-eared Liquid is walking through the halls, tail lashing. There is a half-empty bottle of bourbon in one hand and something else in the other.]

[He is shouting at no one.] Yes, I know he was an imbecile! We fought every time we were in the same room! We spent full days insulting and punching one another! He drove me mad!

[He takes a swig from the bottle, then leans against the wall.]

God, I miss him.

[He hangs his head as he laments]

We were just beginning to tolerate one another now and then. Why did the idiot have to disappear? There were times when he...I could almost say he...wasn't so bad.

[His face crumples into an expression of unbearable sadness.]

We never even finished watching his ridiculous film.

[The object he holds is a video of Top Gun.]

((Drunk, kitty-ified Liquid misses xmas_is_here. Laugh, commiserate, steal his bourbon.))

I'm more than all right.

[Ivan walks over to the VCR, pushing in the tape. He has to fiddle with the settings a bit to get the display working, but soon enough they're at the pre-movie commercials.

Which Ivan promptly starts to fast forward through.]

Sooo...you're Liquid, right?

[whyamisobritish.livejournal.com]

That's right, I'm the evil twin. And you're the pretty Russian. Ivan, isn't it? By the odds it's Ivan.

[He takes a good swig of bourbon.]

[Ivan merely blinks at the joke, not understanding the reference nor the circumstances that would make it funny.

He does, however, smile at the compliment.]

That's right, Major Ivan Raikov. Heard of me?

[He takes a seat on the couch, finding the start of the movie and hitting play. The opening scene has already lost his interest, but that may be do to the fact there was a drunken man with cat ears sitting next to him.]

[More reclined next to him.]

Ah, yes. There's a version of you that Hal is rather fond of. Decent enough sort. They say he's from a different world that most.

[he loses track of what he's saying because OH MY GOD PLANES]

[volginswaifu.livejournal.com]

A thin-limbed scientist? With me? [Ivan gives Liquid a dubious, slightly disgusted look.] It must be a very different world...

[Planes? Yawn. Ivan much preferred tanks, but he attempts to watch the movie anyway.]

[whyamisobritish.livejournal.com]

[He gets an affronted look back. That's his boyfriend you're talking about.] I'll have you know he's a very good-looking man.

[His eye is drawn to the action on the screen. It's not just planes; there's also copious homoeroticism.]

[volginswaifu.livejournal.com]

Uh...right. [Otacon was far, far from his tastes.]

[Homoeroticism you say? Well, that's got Ivan's attention.] Ohh, do we get to see them do it?

[Too used to pornos. He sounds excited though.]
