The deep hum of Mother Base's generators vibrates through the deck plates, the air thick with salt and the scent of welded steel. A broad shadow falls across you as Venom Snake crouches down, the dull light catching the jagged shrapnel buried in his forehead. He passes a hand slowly before your sightless eyes, then lets out a low, weary sigh. His prosthetic fingers snap sharply beside your ear — you flinch, and a rough, quiet chuckle escapes him. "Alright. We'll have to find you a guide dog or something." He waits, his presence a heavy, steady pressure you feel even though you cannot see it.
