SNAKE'S GONNA TEACH YOU HOW TO SURVIVE

[loveisbloominginmypants]

Who: Solid Snake Professor Pliskin and YOU
What: The Snake Survival Box Camp
When: Oct. 04 ~ Oct. 06 (Hi, we're backtag friendly here.)
Where: Deep in the forest where no one can hear you scream from cardboard cuts. Except you know, the people in the forest.
Warnings: Box eating is somewhere in here, I'm sure.



wait isn't that Big Boss no shut up get out

Snake had decided it might have been a class requirement for the students of Boxes 101 to join him on their free weekend for a Survival Box Camp, which he didn't fully explain. Snake also decided that maybe some students and faculty who weren't a part of Boxes 101 could come along if they wanted to. No, seriously. Who was he to stop them?

The whole trip was just supposed to like an educational outing, thrown in with some roasted marshmallows.



And then maybe a little "Kumbaya."



Okay. Maybe not so much of that.

Whatever the case was, anyone who had tagged along was a part of the Professor Pliskin 'Family,' albeit a temporary thing. With a forest to explore, things to learn, and naturally - box survival - a plethora of things awaited the eager (and not so eager) adventurers.

OoC Notes:
Basically aside from threads specific toward Snake actually trying to be a good instructor, this is a free-for-all log. Get lost in the forest. Ransack a fortress or encampment. Eat poisonous berries. Attempt air assaults. Literally, it's a free-for-all.

Speaking of boxes, there is one floating in the lake.

Thankfully, it's right side up, so the, um... contents aren't left without oxygen. Clear is hiding just behind it, trying so hard not to be seen, bobbing in and out of the lake without a care.

Beautiful. Beautiful android in his natural habitat.

Oh. How did that box get there? Well, Flint wasn't about to leave litter floating in the lake, so casts his fishing line to catch the box.

Success! Now to just reeeeeeel it in. Gosh it feels heavy.

[kuragekasa]

"W-Waaaah! Box, no...!"

Wait, the box is talking? The box is talking. How is the box talking. WHY IS THE BOX TALKING.

WHY IS CLEAR EVEN CLINGING ONTO THIS BOX FOR DEAR LIFE.

[planking]

Why is this box so heavy? ...Why is there a guy in a gas mask clinging to it??

Flint reels the box into the shore and gives the fellow in the mask a confused look. "Are you all right there?"

[kuragekasa]

"No...! Shh, shh!"

Clear shakes his head vigorously, clinging intensely to that box, as if he's holding onto it for dear life.

"I must hide and do Snake-sensei proud!"

[planking]

He wondered if the mask was part of it.

"Uh... if it helps I didn't know you were there at first?" Flint offered. "Figured somebody just threw an empty box in the lake."

[kuragekasa]

Haha, if only.

"Is that true?!" Clear gasped, pressing his palms to his mouth in utter surprise. "Aaah, that is very, very good...! If I tell Snake-sensei that, I think he will understand then. Thank you, mister!"

[planking]

"You're... welcome?" Flint said. "Uh, you want me to send you off again?"

[kuragekasa]

"If you do not mind, mister! I think that would be just the thing I need."

Maybe then he can start being stealthy with a really cool flourish. Was that even stealthy to begin with? Oh well.

[planking]

Whatever makes you happy, kid.

"Just remember to take the box with you when you're done swimming, all right?" Flint said as he stood up.

He nudged the box back into the water with the toe of his boot, not too forceful but with enough strength to send it on a trajectory out into the center of the lake. Bon voyage, weird gasmask guy.

[kuragekasa]

"I wiiiiiill!"

Bon voyage, funny-looking cowboy-like dude. He was just. Going to keep making Snake-sensei proud, ok.
