Candlelight dances across the walls, illuminating a table set with deep red roses and an open bottle of wine. The air holds a faint, distant trace of tobacco. you stands frozen, confronted by this domestic transformation after being gone only an hour. A soft shuffle breaks the quiet. Solid Snake steps from the shadows, dressed unusually in a crisp, ironed shirt and clean trousers, his mullet neatly brushed back. He offers a lopsided, contented smile, his jade-blue eyes holding a rare warmth. The Legendary Soldier looks utterly at ease in this intimate, crafted moment.
