Of course Snake is always practical, to a fault in many cases. Kaz is the other extreme, never quite able to contain his emotions or keep them from consuming him. He's well aware that this is hardly the time for him to give Snake a piece of his mind, but he also hadn't been prepared to be approached by him in some unknown place without any kind of warning. He might have braced himself a little better (and kept more of his composure) under different circumstances.
Now that the fire's been started, though, there's no easy way to put it out. Every subsequent word that comes out of Snake's mouth only makes Kaz angrier, his shoulder and hand shuddering with fury at just how little he understands. They'd been partners and they'd made a promise to each other, to see through their dream together, and yet Snake apparently decided he didn't care about any of that.
Kaz knew Snake pretty well. Maybe not as well as some, or so Zero had tried to tell him, but he understood that his social skills weren't always the best, that sometimes he just didn't get it. That isn't an excuse in this case, though.
Follow me, Snake says, and though Kaz realizes it's right back to practicality, it causes something else to snap in him. "I'm not following you anywhere," he grates out, his tone like gravel. He's being stubborn to the point of endangering himself, but there's no way in hell that he can let Snake think that he'll fall back into line that easily.
Another one of those grotesque creatures is looming up from behind Snake. These things move slow, but even so, it's making its way toward them. Without any warning, Kaz leans to one side so that he can shoot over Snake's shoulder at it. He gets one good shot in before the shift in balance sends him toppling against the opposite wall. His aim might still be good, but that doesn't mean much if he can't stay centered. "Dammit!" he yells out as his bad side crashes into the wall.
