[cardboard_boss]

I'm just getting warmed up.

[Snake shot Liquid a sly glance, as he blocked a few moves from Liquid's character then began jumping up and kicking his opponent in the face.]

High kicks? Nice.

[saveyourserpent]

[Snorting in laughter, Liquid shook his head.]

Well, you're trying at least. I'll give you that.

[He jumped his character back, started blocking, and let out another volley of kicks.]

Maybe you'll even win one later on.

[cardboard_boss]

I can try a hell of a lot harder too.

[Ahab grunted, as his fingers began to ache with all the button bashing his was doing. Damn, Liquid's character was whooping his ass.]

Damn. How can your guy even do that?

[saveyourserpent]

Can you? Should try it, then.

[Liquid just kept on landing combo after combo, getting more comfortable with it as time went on. He might not have been the most familiar with this version of the game, but it wasn't hard to figure out.]

You just have to figure out which buttons to press.

[cardboard_boss]

Yeah, seems that way.

[Ahab grunted with the effort of keeping his fingers glued to the buttons whilst smashing them repeatedly. He was landing blows to Liquid's character and even managed to perform a combo.]

Look's like I did something.

[saveyourserpent]

[Liquid regarded his apparent effort with an eyebrow raised and a nod.]

Not bad. You do seem to be getting the hang of it.

[Liquid was still damn good, though, and he countered more than he got hit.]

[cardboard_boss]

Yeah. This guy can kick and punch pretty well.

[As in his character. Snake completed a combo of kicks and punches aimed at Liquid's character. But then Liquid was countering. Damn.]

You've done this before.

[saveyourserpent]

Of course. I've had a bit of time to get good.

[He kept countering Ahab's character, although he did get some hits in here and there. Ultimately, though, Liquid blocked a lot and it looked like the battle was nearing its end.]

This is a little more... high-end than I'm used to, but still.

[cardboard_boss]

I don't doubt that.

[How long was that? A few more years then Snake.]

Yeah, it is high-end for me too. [When he was used to Walkman's and tapes. Snake slammed the buttons down a few more times, before seeing his character end up getting K.O'd.]

Shit. You won.

[saveyourserpent]

[He'd had a good amount of time in arcades here and there, and as someone who liked fighting, fighting games were just as good.]

Right, this is probably all sorts of space-age for you, isn't it? [He kept tapping at the buttons, and finally he came out on top.]

I did. But you didn't do so bad.

wrap up here?

[cardboard_boss]

Thanks. Yeah, it's pretty surreal.

[Space age? Yep. He's from 1984 where computer's where ancient.]

sure sure sure

[saveyourserpent]

Well, just practice a bit more and I'm sure you'll do fine.

[Liquid's totally sure he'll still be the champion though.]
