"I understand," It was a big thing, really. Her Cobras had given a vow to follow her till the day that they all died. And the way they had said it gave the impression that they firmly believed they would one day follow her on a mission from which there would be no return.
Particularly with that sad smile The Sorrow had on his face as he said it. The Boss blinked slightly as she looked away from Snake towards a window. It was raining outside, heavily.
Not for the first time she wondered if The Sorrow had known, even then, and agreed anyway. "I didn't expect you to say yes."
Jack was too pure, too young to be a Cobra. He hadn't yet learned what it was to carry an emotion of his own into battle. To embrace the strengths and weaknesses inherent to emotions.
