Where...?

[Julie tucks her hair behind her ear, her long, manicured fingernails lightly brushing against her scalp as she does so. She starts to walk down the unfamiliar hallway in search of Hal, her light haired boy who was moaning her name just a moment ago, or so she thought.]

...Another new one? Tch...how troublesome.

[gallifreysnake.livejournal.com]

[The Snake can't pinpoint what it is, but there is something he doesn't like about this woman.]

You lost, lady?

[ladyofvermilion.livejournal.com]

[Walks over to him, a hand on her hip.] Excuse me.

[liquidouroboros.livejournal.com]

[Fantastic. He'd have to socialize.]

You're in an interdimensional nexus where time and space are played with like bloody pieces on a chessboard. My name is Liquid Snake, and I'm hardly in the mood to deal with this.

[Best to get things out of the way.]

[ladyofvermilion.livejournal.com]

[Eyes him briefly. Mm. Certainly too old for her tastes.] I'm looking for a boy named Hal. Do you know him?

WHY DO I LIKE TORTURING HIM SO.

[jailbait-guilt.livejournal.com]

...

[gallifreysnake.livejournal.com]

Who's asking?

[ladyofvermilion.livejournal.com]

[Raises an eyebrow at him.] I see. Well, Mister... Liquid Snake, do you know a boy named Hal?

[ladyofvermilion.livejournal.com]

I'm not sure why that would relevant for you to know.

[liquidouroboros.livejournal.com]

'Liquid' is sufficient--...

[Wait, what.]

I do know someone named Hal, though somehow I doubt it's the version you're looking for. ...also, I note you have my name and yet I've not been informed of yours.

Hehehe

[ladyofvermilion.livejournal.com]

[Spots him and rushes over despite being in high heels.] Oh, Hal. [Opens her arms out to him.] Come here. I was worried about you.

[gallifreysnake.livejournal.com]

[He pulls out a cigarette from his pants pocket as well as a lighter.] Forgive me if I don't trust a complete stranger in this place.

[ladyofvermilion.livejournal.com]

[She sighs.] My name is Julie. [Tosses her hair back over her shoulder.] We can talk more once I've found him.

[ladyofvermilion.livejournal.com]

... Are you a father, by chance?

[liquidouroboros.livejournal.com]

I see. Well then, Julie, how do you kn--...

[Oh hold the fucking phone.]

...Julie. [He repeated it, eyes turning frigid as his expression hardened to a severe stare of cold disgust.] Hal's stepmother.

[jailbait-guilt.livejournal.com]

[He hesitantly approaches to you for a hug. And realizes that, despite all the warnings... he's still glad to see you.] J-Julie, I... Uhm.

D-do you know where we are?

[gallifreysnake.livejournal.com]

[He lights up, taking a long drag.] A pretty damn good one, if I say so myself.

[ladyofvermilion.livejournal.com]

That's correct. It seems you don't like me for some reason, Mister Liquid.

[If they weren't too old for each other, they could have petty hot creepylady sex.]

[mrs-danziger.livejournal.com]

[Exhaling a string of smoke from between red lips, Julie steps away from the wall she had been leaning against and slinks over to her doppelganger...ish person.]

Well well well... [Lips curling into a grin]

It was only a matter of time, I suppose.

[ladyofvermilion.livejournal.com]

[She's unaffected by the smoke.] Then you should understand why I am concerned about my boy.

[ladyofvermilion.livejournal.com]

[Wraps her arms around him tightly, nearly smothering his thin frame. Whispers.] No... but I know where we were a moment ago. [Gently slides her hand up and down his side.]

[gallifreysnake.livejournal.com]

Ah, that explains a lot.

[He gives her a cold glare.] If you had any real motherly concern, you'd stay away from him.

[liquidouroboros.livejournal.com]

...Oh, my dear woman, that is the greatest understatement spoken since I myself uttered the phrase 'how much damage can one man with a sword really do?'

[A malicious smirk came to his face--this was the woman that had hurt Otacon so badly, that had made him so ashamed of himself and so afraid that Liquid would be disgusted with him...]

[Back in the special 'protect Otacon' corner of Liquid's mind he had developed since Shadow Moses, a burning rage was beginning to build up.]

You and I have something to discuss.

[Of course.]

[ladyofvermilion.livejournal.com]

[Looks at her warily, noting how strangely familiar she seems, but doesn't think much of it.] I'm afraid I don't know you and I'm a bit busy. If you'll excuse me.

[ladyofvermilion.livejournal.com]

[Narrows her eyes, then chuckles softly.] Stay away from him? You would pull a vulnerable boy like that away from the person who loves him most?
