[Snake's in his personal quarters, looking about as languid as he typically has been. He's propped back in his chair. Binder's flipped open. He appears to be grading... something. Probably an essay on what everyone learned at the Box Camp. At least the people who went. Anyone who didn't and wrote an essay was probably spouting bullshit.

Good thing he can bullshit real well.]

Huh. Last time I was going to say something, I was getting hit on by a woman - and not in the good way. [It's true. Last time he was on the network, Eli was beating him down for being drunk. He's amazingly sober this time around.]

I've got some good news for my students. [He waves some loose papers back and forth.] These aren't half bad. I'm beginning to think you guys are actually listening.

[A pause.]

Bad news is. If you didn't show up to that outing and you turned something in anyway, you're not getting any credit for it. Because you weren't there. I guess your punishment is that you have to eat a panel of a box. If you have any questions about what that's like, go see Captain Falcon and Instructor Aran. I'm sure they can tell you all about it.

[He can too, but he's not going to.] Next paper's going to be on the evolution of boxes and their advancements over time. [In short, come to another class of Boxes 101 where Snake pretends to be this guy named Pliskin and spouts random crap for forty-five minutes to an hour.]

I'm gonna find you.

[loveisbloominginmypants]

I'm so scared.
No, really. You say find like it's hard to find me.

[raced_god]

That should make you, like, double scared.

[loveisbloominginmypants]

Why am I scared, again? I missed the memo on this one.

[audio]

[icequeen_aran]

I'm gonna find you.

What's to tell? I'll just redirect them to you since I'm not the only one with good taste.

[audio]

[loveisbloominginmypants]

Pretty sure eating the boxes was your idea, Samus.

[icequeen_aran]

Doesn't change the fact you joined in.

[dontgetcarter]

They have to eat a box?

There is no way that's legal.

[loveisbloominginmypants]

It is.
It's legal in my classroom.

[dontgetcarter]

I'm not sure that's how laws work.

Or discipline.

Or anything.

Snake-sensei? Is it possible for the human digestive system to break down a box?

[ He so didn't think that was a thing people could do. HUMANS ARE SO INTERESTING. ]

[ video ]

[loveisbloominginmypants]

Evidently, yes.

[Which was news to him because he wasn't sure how his own box eating was going to result twenty-four hours later when his body decided to get rid of it.]

I just wouldn't recommend eating boxes on a regular basis. That doesn't apply to you though, Clear. You were at the survival camp.

[kuragekasa]

Yes, I realize this, Snake-sensei! I am just surprised that a human body can handle eating cardboard... I always thought that it would be unpleasant.

[ In fact, he still has to wonder about that. He sure as heck isn't giving that a shot any time soon. ]

[Hahaha like hell she's letting this fly. On goes the feed, revealing one very angry looking nun in body armor.]

There will be no eating of boxes as punishment.

[It's against her religion. But no seriously if you wanna make them eat soap then she might be cool with that...]

[Video]

[loveisbloominginmypants]

Until you're professor, I'm pretty sure you can't make that kind of judgment call.

[He pauses with some consideration, wondering how he can manage to squeeze in some kind of crack about her apparel.]

Cute of you to try, though.

[Video]

[holydeath]

[DID HE JUST....

He just...

It's official, Snake has made it to the very top of her shit list.]

It's cute that you think can shrug me off. As one of the school nurses, I completely forbid that kind of punishment.

[Rick was coincidentally busy being a dumb scruffy blonde humany human last Snake's network post, but now that he's a core he's going to oblige his curiosity and dig around in the archives for what he's implying.

Oh yeah, that's the goods.]

Ha ha, yeah last time you got walloped pretty bad, didn't ya?

[audio]

[loveisbloominginmypants]

[Oh hey. It's his smoking buddy. Snake's not forgotten him, or how uncool he is.]

That's not even the half of it. You only caught the part before she broke the damn thing. She was a snake with a temper.

[It's funny because it's true.]

[explosion_day]

[HE'S TOTALLY COOL YOU SHUT YOUR WHORE MOUTH]

See, usually that's not how you impress a woman. Usually you gotta' fight something big and nasty other than her.

[travelingbelle]

How... big of a box...

[Look she had reasons for not going on a survival trip and half of them was that Bret isn't good at tagging.]

[Video]

[loveisbloominginmypants]

[It's seriously one of his favourite students. Probably his favourite, actually. Except the problem is that every time he sees her, he thinks of the hot spring. And the mistletoe.]

Huh.
I didn't see you, which is kind of unlike you. Something important happen?

[Look at that. Maybe that's some concern creeping into his voice.]

[Video]

[travelingbelle]

[Don't think she missed that potential note there. She might have blushed a little, or maybe that was just the computer screen being dumb. At any rate, she did look mildly embarrassed in general.]

I wish I could say yes, cause I was actually looking forward to it...

[She backed up from her computer a bit so that her sling was more obviously a sling, giving it a vague point with her other arm.]

A survival trip was just going to aggravate things more than I already did on my own, unfortunately.

[planking]

You were the reason I saw all those boxes in the woods last week?

[loveisbloominginmypants]

That's about right. I was explaining to my kids the use of boxes in the wilderness.

[planking]

For... carrying supplies?
