Sx > So Liquid: "We're twins linked by cursed genes. Les Enfants Terribles. You're fine. You got all the old man's dominant genes. I got all the flawed, recessive genes. Everything was done so that you would be the greatest of his children. The only reason I exist is so they could create you." Solid: "I was the favorite, huh." Liquid: "That's right! I'm just the leftovers of what they used to make you. Can you understand what it's like to know that you're garbage since the day you were born!? But... I'm the one father chose." Solid: "...So that's why you're so obsessed with Big Boss. Some warped kind of love." Liquid: "Love!? It's hate!! He always told me I was inferior and now I'll have my revenge!! You should understand me, brother. You killed our father with your own hands! You stole my chance for revenge! Now I'll finish the work that father began. I will surpass him... I will destroy him!" The sexual instinct isn't (just) about intimacy, it's about self-transformation, transcending one's self, and a need to propagate one's existence. Liquid's character is all about overcoming what he believes to be his genetic destiny, and by extension his "father" and brother. That's his entire motivation, what he's been obsessed with ever since he was a child. He focuses first and foremost on his relationships to his "family", even if it's to prove that he's better than all of them through attempted murder. He's about as (unhealthy) sx-first as one can get. Furthermore, the secondary instinct acts as a means to an end for the first instinct. In the case of sx/so, they use their social landscape to satisfy their sx needs, which can result in a desire to shake things up socially, sometimes even a revolutionary drive to reshape and change society (which perfectly fits Liquid's plan: by dragging the world into a Third World War and therefore fulfilling Big Boss's dream of a world which always held a place for soldiers, he would succeed where his "father" had failed, and thus prove that he wasn't a failure => social instinct servicing the sexual instinct).

Biography
Liquid Snake, real name Eli, also known as White Mamba (Kikongo: “Nyoka ya Mpembe”), or simply Liquid, was the leader of FOXHOUND during the Shadow Moses Incident. He was cloned from Big Boss's DNA as part of the Les Enfants Terribles project, along with his brothers Solid Snake and Solidus Snake. Liquid was led to believe that he had been created in order to express Big Boss's recessive genetic traits, and as such, was "inferior" to Solid Snake who supposedly had received Big Boss's dominant genes. Liquid, therefore, held a strong resentment towards Solid and wished to defeat him in combat, reclaiming what he felt was his birthright, and thus proving his superiority. #CamClarke #PiersStubbs
