Note to self. Watch out for some guy named Decoy Octopus. Keep tabs on that name whenever he made it home.
Reluctantly Miller took off his glasses, and held them out to Liquid, squinting hard in the light. It wasn't a perfect impersonation, but Miller was aware that, as a man that learned to speak English with as little accent as possible so that he wouldn't be judged (Japan, Korea, and Vietnam hostilities had all bore down on America for decades) that he achieved a carefully maintained level of US generic.
Guess it probably didn't help in this case.
He looked a little more Japanese without the glasses, otherwise he didn't wear much of the ethnicity outwardly. That, and he looked remarkably young for his age (probably had helped Liquid out there too). He puts the glasses on Liquid, looking up at him with an odd, quizzical expression.
"Like that you could almost pass for my son instead." Or at least someone one of his sons would grow up to look like.
