This is one of the better-written Metal Gear fanfics in the archive. The drama was nice and the subtext intriguing. The ending was bittersweet. What inspired you to write this? Especially the metaphysical elements with Spike Ingram? If anything, this reads like a better version of a Metal Gear crossover, whose text and plot layout makes it almost unreadable. In short, grammar aside, this story is everything that other fic tried to be done right. But that's just my opinion. This, in a way, helped filled the void in me left by Phantom Pain, the flawed last Metal Gear of Hideo Kojima.

lol... story makes sense until somewhere between c6-c8. Then it ceases as VQuiet and moves toward a type or venom legacy thing? Pretty great start with a weak finish.

There was a great start! I just cannot understand... What is this end. I didn’t play any Metal Gear game, and this end is TOO ILLUSIVE. What happened really?

(Chapters 8-10 are optional epilogues for those wondering. Ch 1-7 is the full story)

This was great! Thematically heavy, thought-provoking, and touching are just a few words I can use to describe this. Not to mention a plot-line that would make Kojima proud. At least chapters 1-7 were. I'm not sure about the direction you're heading with chapters 8-10. I feel like you've killed a lot of emotional weight of chapter 7 with what you've done in 8 (saying it would spoil it, though). Still, chapters 1-7 were amazing and definitely worth a read.

where's DD

Oookaay, now you’ve lost me. What is happening right now (chaps 7-9)?

This is interesting I urge you to continue good sir or madam.

Awesome work

update pls i dont wanna be played like a damn fiddle

Wow that was pretty good no pun intended. But I'm curious to see the climax, I've been reading since the beginning and I have to say this story is pretty close to my heart and I like that you kept venom snake strong when found I feel that's how he would be thanks for this chapter and I can't wait for the next

This story has been pretty fun so far, not as serious as most other MGSV stories, but I think that's what I like most about it. Fluff is always great.

I just powered through the four chapters on your story and I really enjoyed it. I like the way you depicted Quiet and Venom's budding relationship and Quiet not immediaty starting to talk once she recieved the Wolbachia treatment (something that a lot of authors seem to do) its something different. There's a lot I enjoy about your story and I'm excited to read more of it once you update! Till the next chapter!

Peace!

Please make an update...the waiting is killing us.

that was pretty good
