    Summary

    Successful actor John Sears must reprise his role as the iconic Solid Snake after 10 years in a re-boot of the Metal Gear movie franchise. But this time he plays his predecessor, Naked Snake. John is worried he’s too old to do the role justice but decides to take it on anyway. Newbie actor Adam Katz, playing the young Ocelot Unit Major, is a little too excited to be on the same set as his idol.

    Summary

    A short ficlet from my Peace Walker era AU where Ocelot and Eva come to visit MSF

    Ocelot is less than happy that Snake has a shiny new plaything - this Miller character. Scorned and petulant, he will go to any length to get the attention that he desperately desires. Including purposefully inducing heat stroke with the hope that Snake will catch him when he eventually collapses.

    Summary

    I submit my incentive is romance / I watched the pole dance of the stars / We rejoice because the hurting is so painless / From the distance of passing cars

    +++

    "Hedonism?"

    "Would you consider yourself a Hedonist then, John?"

    He likes America, he likes that John brought him here to show him the allure of capitalism and the beauty of the south western corners of his country. It's all like Ocelot had seen in the spaghetti westerns and spy thrillers back home with less glamour and more grit.

    He feels out of place, in that way - a pantomiming Russian cowboy in an American city. But it’s not like he’s a stranger to living lives that aren’t his.
