[There is an Old Snake, sneaking his way through the halls unchecked. This is great for him since he's made a career out of being, for the most part, invisible. He's decided to take a breather from his training, and idle in a plain room, and boy...is this room plain; all four walls are white, and the sofa and table in the middle of the room is black. It's almost strange in its own way since he's grown so accustomed to walking into truly strange rooms with odd effects, that walking into a plain one is almost as much as a shock. Nothing happened.]

Huh.

Well...this is different.

[The old man still hesitates warily...]

What's the catch?

[He's so sure that something strange will happen at any second that he doesn't relax at all. In fact, he just seems to become even more cautious.]

What If?

[It had been a fair amount of time since this Big Boss had surfaced in the Nexus. He had gotten what he had set out to achieve - the ability to say goodbye to The Boss. Though it hurt him no less, he was grateful for his mentor to show. Naturally, it was a tough transition to move from maniacal to peaceful over the months that had passed. He still grieved heavily over the loss of his surrogate mother figure but the matter was out of his hands.]

[Lost in his thoughts, Big Boss found himself drawn to a room. It was not one he had seen before but something was drawing him in.]

[Taking his chances, the old bastard reached out with his gloved hand and forced the door open. He took a cautious step inside - nothing seemed to challenge his current demeanor. He assumed it to be safe.]

[Before him were several rows of computers. All of the monitors were on, and he could hear the familiar hum of the systems buzzing away with energy. Curiosity won this round, as Big Boss sauntered up to one of the computers. He took a seat and gazed at the screen before him. He never was any good at technology, but he knew what a time-line was. Every single event was now at his finger tips. He read as much as he could with his slightly blurred single-eye vision. By the time he got to the section about Zanzibarland, he knew he had to take a break.]

[Big Boss rubbed his eye.]

[He hadn't expected anything to change once he focused on the monitor again, but the mouse was hovering over a particular event with an option to 'edit' the details:]

METAL GEAR D IS DESTROYED. SOLID SNAKE SURVIVES. EDIT

Hmmh...

((ooc: Welcome to the 'What If' room. Here, you have the ability to re-write your character's fate by changing the database - but be warned! You can only change one event in their life. This may be a very minor event, or something highly significant. Once this event has been re-written, they will feel as though they have lived that life with the event change. The effects of the room disappear in three days. It's up to you if you decide they have the memories of 'What If', or simply a vivid dream, or perhaps they forget entirely.))

[It had been quite some time, far too long since this Big Boss had made his appearance known to the Nexus. Even now, months after his attempt to heed the reigns of control on this building, he still could not sober up the notion of acceptance. Accepting what had happened to him. Accepting the knowledge he possessed. Accepting what Zero had done to him. He could not accept betrayal, and could not accept the Snakes created from his loins as being his Sons. They were pieces in the cog, to assist the sentient machine known as The Patriots. What for, you ask? To ensure control. To keep everyone in their place. They had all been assigned a part like actors in a play, masking the truth and hiding themselves behind veils of supremacy.]

[Big Boss no longer wished to be part of it. It was time he snipped the last strings holding him back and left it to the next generation, to ensure Her dreams were realized. Not through war - he had tried and failed in his attempts before now to make a difference through the killing of helpless soldiers. He would be a deterrence, something for his soldiers to surpass and never live up to. Even as he cradled the pain of his life so close to his heart.]

[The old soldier was standing in what appeared to be the field of Rokovoj Bereg. White lilies surrounded the vicinity of his body and he could faintly hear the running water of the lake nearby. His single eye took in the immediate surrounding area as he finally came to terms with his purpose.]

[This had been where it had all started. In taking Her life, he too felt that same emptiness that death brought. Knowing what he does, yes. Perhaps it truly was better for Her not to be a part of this world. She was too good for Humanity, too pure. Not even he himself deserved to be in her presence for as long as he had, but he understood his selfishness. He knew why he craved to be alongside her, even as he aged, as her chosen disciple. She had been his Mother figure and his mentor. He loved her as such, but nothing more than the purest of intimacies.]

[Regardless of his status with that sacred woman, the soldier still had a mission to complete, with or without The Boss at his side. It was a personal mission in need of fulfilling.]

[It was time he let go and say goodbye.]


((ooc: Looking for a canon version of The Boss but anyone can stop by and see what he's up to.))

[There's this Snake at large out in the halls, wandering and smoking. He's got on a pair of camouflage shorts and a black t-shirt, looking as if he was just about to start PT, but he's really just taking a walk, nosily surveying the area. He's scavenging for lost weapons and ammo, or anything else of use that he could easily procure. As usual, after every scuffle and war, there's always things bound to be laying around lost and Snake will be happy to find them.]


((ooc: Have a nosy Snake that's turning over everything, including couch cushions in search of things to procure.))
((Chances are, if it's not nailed down it's as good as gone...))

[Returning from death was certainly a unique experience, especially for someone like Big Boss. He wasn't entirely sure what he had expected from the ordeal, but being disconnected from his body had been a very strange concept for him to deal with, as it would for anyone. He had been alone, forced into the darkness. He initially believed it to be Hell, but humoured himself with the idea that if there was a God in the Biblical sense, He might have redeemed him. Everything he had done, after all, had been for Her, for the greater good.]

[Being in that world compared to the Nexus was, to put it blankly, a mindfuck. He didn't see Her. He saw no one. Not even The Sorrow as he had done all those years ago. Snake Eater seemed so far away from his conscience now. A foggy cloud of images, with only one piercing through and stabbing him right in the heart. Her death still loomed over him like a toxic gas, consuming his soul. Not even death could free him of that pain.]

[As of right now, Big Boss was perched on a bench in the lobby. His gloved, mechanical hands were draped loosely in his lap. He was leisurely smoking on a cigar, an intense look in his single eye, contemplating what he would do now he was truly back in Hell.]
[identity profile] livingherdream.livejournal.com
[The destruction of the rubble around him, followed by the innate corruption of the Nexus has sent this Big Boss on an all time high. He has never felt so many emotions surging through his body at one time. All of those feelings that had been building for years had finally taken him to a new stage of his persona. He no longer possessed rational thought, neither did he seem to care about the consequences of his actions.]

[Losing The Boss had been his starting point... and then EVA's betrayal, following on to his comrades, his friends of whom he trusted had taken advantage of his being in a coma and went behind his back to create soldiers of his DNA. His sons. The very thought of that made his stomach wrench in anger.]

[Perhaps in alternative situations, he might have come to enjoy a family. Had it been done while he had been awake to confirm it... But Zero and his pathetic followers thought differently. He wasn't even sure he could trust that bastard Ocelot.]

[No. The only people he trusted were his true family. Children taken in under his wing and purposely raised by his hand. Fox, Naomi, Wolf, and the many others he had come to cherish as his own. His biological spawn would never amount to how he felt for those soldiers raised. Solid, Liquid and Solidus had been born and bred through selfish means. They could never be complete human beings, because he himself was not. They were extracts of his own failures. He wasn't a true hero. There was only one person that deserved that title... and she had left him, just as everyone else had. Everyone he had placed faith and trust in.]

[Today was the day he would end it all. The suffering, the pain... and hopefully through this war he had constructed, an eventual peace would come fourth and exist. No more pain, no more fights for dominance.]

[Right now, however, he needed those negative emotions if he stood a chance in fighting. He knew how many people would want to fight him.]

[He stood, waiting out in the extended hallways where REX had taken its toll and destroyed the surroundings. Between his lips was a cigar, and in his hands was The Patriot. It was all a matter of time before he was faced with death... either from himself, or bringing that fate to others.]

[A hanger. That was the source of the power behind Big Boss and his Soldiers. No, it wasn't an empty shell of a hall, but a large space for a certain monster of a machine. His robot. All of his soldiers were lined up in front of REX II, readied with ammunition and various weaponry. And he had also encouraged them to equipt a BOX should any petty individuals decide to try and stop him. Medical supplies were stored and stacked away in one of the storage rooms in the hanger.]

[It had been building for months, this strive for power to shake this place up. He longed to gain satisfaction in bringing suffering to those that had made him suffer for so many years. He could never forgive, neither could he forget what had been done. He planned on proving a point, even if it meant the destruction of this building.]

[Big Boss was standing proudly, smirking as he sent one of his engineers to elevate the doors so REX could be piloted out into the Nexus. He glanced to his right-hand side where [livejournal.com profile] zanzibarasshole was stood.]

Fox. It is time.

As for everyone else, you will assist and fight anyone that comes in our way. Do whatever you must in order to gain the upper hand.

Our reign of power begins now.

[Readied with his own equipment, Big Boss strides out of the hanger with an arrogant flare. In order for them to get a headstart, he had rigged a collection of C4 in the lobby. Drawing a remote from his pocket, he pushed it and caused said explosives to erupt the hallways.]


((ooc: Not sure what's going on? Check this thread for alignment.))
[identity profile] livingherdream.livejournal.com
[Big Boss is in one of the rooms 'outside' on the ground floor. It appears to be a training ground of sorts with a large field and courts for training, along with an alcove for weaponry training. He's currently standing in his BDUs, a whistle draped around his neck as he waits for fellow pupils and any individuals who wished to be enrolled into a workout plan.]

[On the grass is where the hand-to-hand and CQC practice would be organized, and the courts for warming up and cooling down. After all, his soldiers wouldn't succumb to failing due to unstretched muscles.]

[He himself had already trained that morning. And with his plans moving rapidly faster than he had ever suspected, he figured he would have to run some tests to make sure his children and pupils were up to standards for their prepared attack. There was no point planning a battle with a hindered group of soldiers.]

[Despite his look of stern determination on his face, he was excited at the prospect of his plans coming to fruition. He had a feeling it was going to be a good day.]


((ooc: Even if you don't want to train, you can still come and interogate him. 8D))
[identity profile] livingherdream.livejournal.com
[Zanzibar!Big Boss was currently sitting in his office. His long legs were outstretched and his hands were clasped together neatly. The ticking of the clock on his wall was the only sound that could be heard next to his heavy breathing.]

[He had just recieved an annonymous e-mail. One containing blueprints for what looked to be a fully designed and completed Metal Gear.]

[Whether or not this was dumb luck or someone was actually working for him without his knowledge went over his head entirely, but he had to think about how he was going to use this information, and how to keep it hidden from prying eyes.]

[He knew he would have to discuss it with Fox. Perhaps his young Doctor Emmerich, too. Both of their opinions mattered to him, especially considering how loyal they both were to him. If the blueprints were genuine and flawless, they could get onto building it right away.]

[Big Boss puffed on his cigar for a long while, idly peppering smoke out between his lips now and again.]


((ooc: Open to everyone.))
[identity profile] livingherdream.livejournal.com
[Big Boss is walking the hallways.]

[He's walking directly past his office.]

[He's currently supporting a BFG ready to hurt some people. Namely [livejournal.com profile] saltpeppered.]

[His mood is not the greatest right now. Cross him and say something, and you might suffer the consequences of his wrath.]



((ooc: Already been three days since he died and he's ready to kick some ass. Tread carefully!))

[Big Boss is currently cleaning up his office on the first floor. He was glad to have missed Halloween, but was now left to clear up the mess littered all over the floor and over his desk. He was not pleased; candy wrappers, party poppers, egg shells. You name it. He had to clean it.]

[He slumped down in his seat irritably once he had dumped the majority of mess into the trash and decided to make a broadcast. His commanding voice boomed out to the Nexus.]

It has come to my attention that the recent festivities have been used to exploit this building. I don't care what you do outside or amongst yourselves, but MY OFFICE IS OFF LIMITS! If I find out who wrecked this room, I will hunt you down.

That is all.


[Big Boss fell back in his chair and attempted to get some paperwork done.]
[identity profile] livingherdream.livejournal.com
[Considering how well things had gone with recruitment, one would think that Big Boss was happy with the amount of willing participants that had come by to help him out with his project, but the severe lack of Snakes that had shown up for him to take advantage of, the commander though it best to go out and provoke them by himself. In person.]

[He should have known not many of them would have read the signs. Perhaps the erectile dysfunction was a little too harsh for them. Whatever it was, he wasn't about to let them get off the hook that easily.]

[Big Boss took it on himself to wander the hallways, searching for various Snakes. He had a feeling he might have to start knocking on some doors soon if they didn't come out willingly.]

((ooc: locked to [livejournal.com profile] snake2012))
[identity profile] livingherdream.livejournal.com
[Big Boss is up to his usual antics again, only this time he's craving to see some more soldiers. Fresh meat, as he would put it.]



[You might see some of these on the walls of the Nexus, placed variously and in random spots. The old bastard's waiting in the lobby behind a desk, hands clasped together as he puffs on a cigar, patiently biding his time until some willing participants arrive.]

[Oh yes. There are cookies, too. Might wanna be careful about eating them if your stomach can't handle poisoned or tampered food, though. If you're Snake, he won't be telling you that.]
[identity profile] livingherdream.livejournal.com
[This old Big Boss is taking a stroll around the Nexus. In his hand, The Patriot resting up on his shoulder. He is looking for something, or rather someone in particular. Dr. Madnar, or at least an engineer that he might be able to blackmail bribe into working under him. He is also looking for his prized soldier in the wishes to dicuss his plans further.]

[After all, just because he was no longer in Zanzibarland, that didn't mean he couldn't continue his plans here. This building could use a little shake-up, even if it would take time to complete said plans.]

[For now, he would put on a facade to hide his ideals.]

[Thankfully, this old bastard isn't quite as willing to shoot down people at random like certain other versions of himself, even if he does detest them. Only when provoked will he resort to a fight.]
