Anna's Analogy

This is a post regarding Anna from Metro: Last Light, I know I'm being completely pathetic about this, but my mind just can't leave this alone!  It keeps returning to it in the most bizarre of situations like waiting for a train or testing out an old hand-me-down laptop for minecraft performance (I'm blogging this on a Toshiba Satellite A215-S4697 with a dead keyboard and dead DVD drive).

Let's recap, when she takes you to murder the Dark One, her first words are "come on, rabbit", wait, what?  Did she mean what I think she means?
Surprisingly not on the first page of google image search even with safesearch off...
Custom PC's review of Metro: Last Light noted that Anna had a "wicked sense of humour" - No objections there!
You can count on your "rabbit" anytime...
Anyway, it's time to put this fuming bollocks to rest, shall we?  I've thought this over and here is my (hopefully FINAL) sequence of events:

  1. Anna has heard of your reputation - she becomes jealous
  2. She berates you as an expression of said jealousy
  3. You get separated, she believes you dieded
  4. She finds you again, she is relieved
  5. She gets captured (yawny bit starts here)
  6. You rescue her, after she gibs your gas mask by running straight into it (RETARD!)
  7. You boink - I like to think it happens to the tune of Benny Benassi's "Satisfaction"
  8. You leave her, she eventually sees you off to war, looking a bit forlorn
  9. She has a kid, and tells him what a lovely protector-slave you are (the greek word serow meant that, and that's where the word hero came from)

So basically, its your good old fashioned hero tale.  Maybe not the most exciting of plots or the most empowering to women (Anna seems to lose strength throughout the game, going from tomboyish sharpshooter to shallow pussy reward for our hero), but I can now at least put it to rest on a humorous note - no more filler like this nonsense, okay?  Good luck, brain...
