[Hey look. It's yet another Otacon. Though it's fair to say this one has been here for a while... but he's been busy, as per usual. Of course, he did take some time away with auld_serpent, but now his confidence had been boosted, enough to kick start him into gear and finish his Mk. II.]

[He was listening to Ayumi Hamasaki as he worked on his computer, the robot hooked up to said machine. He watched it twitch and twirl, until finally... a big grin graced his face.]

Oh man. I did it!

[He bends over to clasp his hands over his creation, hauling it up in his lap proudly. It whirled about in his lap, showing a mirrored excitement to its creator.]

[He's forgotten what month it is, and also that his birthday is coming up on the 20th. Perhaps subconciously, he knows, but he doesn't seem to be showing any signs of celebrating. Time flew by when Otacon was concerned, so of course, he has no concept what month it is right now.]

[Now that he had finished, however, something dawned on him; Snake didn't need it. But he could still set out to use it as a device to keep tabs on the Nexus, especially considering how there have been a few threats in his lifetime here. He wasn't prepared to let anyone get away with anything anymore, and hopefully would be able to find out information before they decided to actually attack. With the added effects of stealth, no one would be able to detect it, so he should be able to get away with it.]

[Of course, now he's been up for three days straight, so someone might want to grab him a coffee... or sleeping pills.]

"Congratulations. It looks even better than I'd imagined."

[otaconic.livejournal.com]

Thanks! I couldn't have finished it without you, you know. I got a lot of inspiration from our little chat.

[He smiled broadly.]

[otaku-mk-ii.livejournal.com]

[Otacon laughed, blushing slightly as he rubbed the back of his neck.]

I-I didn't do as much as all that.

[otaconic.livejournal.com]

Like I said before. Two heads are better than one, except two Otacons are definitely better than one. We can put our brains to work twice as fast... It's amazing.

[Damn cute Otacons and their blushes! He shouldn't find himself 'cute'!]

[otaku-mk-ii.livejournal.com]

[Otacon can't resist his own moe.]

Yeah, I guess you're right. I wonder just how many of us are even here.

[otaconic.livejournal.com]

[Oh god that is so true. Just be glad he's not pinching those blushing cheeks right now. Or collecting him up in his lap and feeding him noodles.]

I've noticed a recent influx, but I don't think they're from our normal timelines.

[Otacon's his own bff. <3]

What makes you say that? They're not genderswapped, are they?

[otaconic.livejournal.com]

It's not that. One of them comes from a world where Snake and Liquid have swapped places.

And ah... there's that one with the fangs. ... Not Otacon-Vamp. A different one.

[He scratched his head.]

[otaku-mk-ii.livejournal.com]

...Wait a second, Snake and Liquid did what? And...wait, what about fangs?

[Information overload. Brain shutting down in 3...2...]

[otaconic.livejournal.com]

Well, Snake was the evil twin, so to speak. So Liquid was the good one. I personally can't see that.

[He smiled sympathetically.] I'm sorry... Try not to think too hard about it.

[He raised his hand, patting Hal's head.]

[otaku-mk-ii.livejournal.com]

But...what? Snake wouldn't...Liquid was what...?

[Congrats, Otacon. You fried your other self's brain. TIME PARADOX.]

[otaconic.livejournal.com]

I have no idea... Didn't I just say not to think too hard about it?

[Oh boy...]

[otaku-mk-ii.livejournal.com]

S-sorry, I just...wow. Just when I thought this place couldn't get weirder.

[otaconic.livejournal.com]

And yet you can accept the thought of a Vamp version of ourselves?

[He smiled teasingly.]

[otaku-mk-ii.livejournal.com]

...Good point. Though to be fair, I've at least seen that for myself.

[otaconic.livejournal.com]

...True.

You'll get used to it again.

Well, I mean... I say that, but some things here still shock even me.

[otaku-mk-ii.livejournal.com]

You've been here a while though, haven't you? What kind of things could...

[He's not even sure he wants the answer to that.]

[otaconic.livejournal.com]

Probably best not to ask.

[He smiled a little.]

[otaku-mk-ii.livejournal.com]

Y-yeah, I don't think I want to know.

[otaconic.livejournal.com]

...

[Have a hug!]

[otaku-mk-ii.livejournal.com]

Gah--!

[He was literally hugging himself. Hello, line into surreal territory.]

[otaconic.livejournal.com]

[He squeezed him.]

If you can get over the fact that you're hugging yourself right now, you can get used to anything.

[otaku-mk-ii.livejournal.com]

[Yes, but the difficult part comes in comprehending the situation]

Uh...but...I...and you...er...

[otaconic.livejournal.com]

What?

[He drew them at arms length carefully, peering down at his younger self with considerate eyes.]

[otaku-mk-ii.livejournal.com]

[Time for a massive understatement.]

...This is crazy.
