"There was no one named Eva in any of the records."
Maybe the records were false, maybe Snake was. Either way, did it matter? What did it matter if he was of woman born? He shook his head as though to clear it.
"It doesn't matter. Even if we did have a mother, she wanted nothing to do with me. You can't love someone you've never met, brother-- don't try to feed me bullshit."
If she was really their mother, it didn't surprise him that she made herself known to Snake and not him.
"I don't need to break from the game. I need to beat them at it."
Had Big Boss come to him with the promise of Outer Heaven, Liquid would have helped him without hesitation. He would have brought the world to its knees for a place like that, somewhere where he would have finally really belonged.
"Indulge me, brother. What have you found that's so much more fulfilling than the bloodlust of the battlefield? What does the perfect soldier want to die for?"
