He was still trying to stand normally when he heard Falcon address him. His office. It was probably safer there, not that... he felt so much at a disadvantage like he had before. Probably thanks to that grenade. And if he really needed to, he had a few more on him. The year following, he made a secret resolution to set up C4 around the academy and detonate it.

That was preemptive thought if he had any.

Looking over to Falcon, he wondered idly why the man paused. Hesitated, more or less. As if Snake might possibly turn him down. "Yeah. Better there than here. We can wait it out." Then he added as an afterthought, "I wasn't doing anything else anyway." Because for whatever reason, it just wouldn't do for Falcon to think Snake didn't earnestly want to go.
