Big Boss has never hesitated to push back against Miller's stubborn nature, and maybe that's one of the reasons why they had worked so well together. Kaz had respected Big Boss as a soldier and a leader, but he also hadn't been so intimidated or charmed by him that he wouldn't argue a point until he was blue in the face if he felt strongly enough about it. That goes both ways, an unfortunate truth in this particular moment.
What Miller isn't prepared for is to hear any mention of Venom, and his head drops down for a moment as a wave of something like nostalgia runs through him. When they'd been working together, Kaz had always felt this undercurrent of anger that he couldn't direct anywhere in particular, with Venom the biggest victor out of all of them.
Now, though, he finds himself missing the man. He really hadn't been much like Big Boss, in the end, for all of their pretending.
"Well, what do you want me to do about it?" Kaz demands, though his tone is eerily quiet. It's difficult not to feel defeated in this situation, where he doesn't have the resources to be anything more than dead weight.
