It's fine, is Snake's reflexive thought, before he realizes him much it really isn't. It's NOT fine, it may never be fine again. He's got a bad feeling that he's going to die here, that no one's coming. That no one ever will.

He's felt that before, though, and then someone came, so maybe it's possible. But then again, that was in a symbolic hell, not a real one. He's positive this situation is worse.

But he has to respond to Sora, the silence is getting awkward. "'You didn't want to hurt me?' says Emily..." Confusingly, Snake's speaking in the first person, as he sometimes does, and not referring to the snake.
