[Well, V wasn't completely marooned. Vandare wasn't all that far away, and the ocean wasn't completely abandoned. It might not have been home to too many monsters, but one man did consider this his turf.
One man, with long blond hair, and Big Boss's face, as covered as it is with a mouthful of sharp teeth. One man, swimming in the water, clearly not completely human.
One man who recognized the man stranded on the beach, who did a double-take when he poked his head out of the water to see what was going on.]
Father?
[The accent and the blond hair might have given a bit of indication as to who this man was, but perhaps he was so far removed from the twelve-year-old he once was that it didn't. Still, he never could have expected his father to show up, could he? Sure, people who other people knew showed up all the time, but his father?
And here he was, still human. Liquid could kill him. He could do what he'd always wanted to do. Just do a bit of singing, lure him into the water, and drown him. Easy. But he'd come back, as people always do here. Would it even be worth the brief satisfaction?]

Well. Been a long time, hasn't it?
