"No," Heiji said, hauling himself to his (slightly wobbly) feet. "I'll do it myself." Damned if he was going to give Snake more ammunition. He was going to haul himself over to the cafeteria if it killed him.

It was a bit difficult to negotiate his own current weakness with his new sandals, but he was not going to give in and take them off, Snake would be able to hear that.

P.S. Was that a snub?

(Spoilers it was totally a snub.)
