do you believe Love Deterrence was kind of a love confession from Kaz to BB?

Sort of. Kind of. I do think it was about BB, and we know the lyrics are written by Kaz.

I don't know if we ever find out all the languages that BB speaks, obviously English, Russian, Spanish, that leaves iirc 3 more languages he speaks, and I don't know if Japanese is ever confirmed as one.

It seems likely given that he speaks to Kojima in PW, and that BB speaking other languages is translated for the player, but Venom also speaks to him and gets a verbal response in TPP, and we know that was in English due to [mumbled summary of TPP plot]. That's probably the closest we get to confirmation.

Anyways my point with that is, I tend to think that BB doesn't speak Japanese, at least not around Kaz, and Kaz intentionally wrote Love Deterrence in a language he didn't think BB knew so that he could get his feelings out without the utter mortification of actually sharing them.

#mgs #bbkaz #if anybody actually knows or has hunches about BB's language list im all ears i want to know #or any of them really #we know liquid “speaks arabic like a native” which is fascinating. like. which dialect?#khaliji would probably make the most sense since he was also in the gulf war #but almost equal chance of anything else as well given it is Year Of Our Lord 2005 when this takes place and uh #bestie we (westerners as a whole) did not really uhhh...what is the word...care...about the diversity of the arab world at that time #but idk its funny to me that *that* is what they choose to point out when he literally speaks kikongo for a large portion of his childhood
