Who: anyone
When: Day 53, evening
Where: the lounge & dining car

[So there were no nice breakfast and video games this morning, but there is a nice dinner and video games this evening!

Francis has made pizzas from scratch -- enough for everyone to have a few slices. They're all vegetarian, for obvious reasons! Those are laid out on the tables in the dining car, so have at.

Upstairs in the lounge the TV has been hooked up to a console that looks like a Switch with the serial numbers filed off and a lot of sparkles. Your game options are, essentially, Mario Kart and Smash, only... all the playable characters are just the Heroes themselves, including past characters you may remember!

This is friendly PVP go punch your video game self in the face.]

. . . ah, at least we don't have the game that destroys friendships.

[ although the fact that the playable characters are them does not come to a surprise to her, even though she's just kind of ??? because why would she be a playable character, she's not combat oriented at all in spite of the fact that she's been trying to learn more combat??

why isn't she an assist trophy instead.

the real questions. ]

[malignstar]

Which game is that?

[ It should be noted that the Felix character sure has a pretty set of black angel wings, although Felix himself appears to have none at the moment. His character also sports a glowing purplish-black rapier. ]

[dereban]

[ absolutely, 100%, taking a note of that, even if she isn't saying it aloud ]

Any equivalent of Mario Party.

[malignstar]

That one sounds familiar but doesn't seem to trigger any super negative reactions.

[ Not that he can remember playing games with anyone. Maybe that sister he supposedly has? ]

[dereban]

Well, it's one of the games that does it. . . although there's plenty of non-video games that do, too.

[malignstar]

It really sucks when you remember video games but can't remember playing video games. Just another of this world's cruel jokes.

Anyway, split milk and all that. Let's take this one for a spin!

[deerlyloved]

[Meanwhile the organizer himself is laying down in one of the dining car booths playing a completely different game on his Chain...

You might be startled to hear him speak up from down there.]

Help yourself. It's all safe.

[yearofthecat]

[ He actually did it, huh? ]

You really didn't need to go this far.

[daydreamshimmer]

Hello.

[voreaciously]

[80H is going to play, surprisingly. But she does not play as herself. She plays as an angry lil shit whose moves include a lot of explosions, but he has a surprising variety of moves and nuance.

This character also says "DIE!" quite a lot.]

[yearofthecat]

[ Yep. Might be a little bit of PTSD at the sight of her. Probably should have figured he'd run into her again so soon. It isn't like this place is very big. ]

You look like you are enjoying yourself.

[voreaciously]

[She hecks up a combo, but recovers and immediately pauses the game.

It's him.]

Ah...it is acceptable.

[how does she talk to someone she ate no one's covered this]

[yearofthecat]

[About the same way you do to someone who just ate you.

Awkward.]

Acceptable?

Is there something you'd rather be doing?

[voreaciously]

No, I mean to say that, for the moment, this is fine.

[...]

...Good day to you.

[yearofthecat]

[...is...she dismissing him? He came over to tell her that he didn't have any hard feelings about what happened and she's DISMISSING him?

Oh. Hell. No.]

[dereban]

That. . . certainly is a catch phrase.

[ just musing aloud as Inaba just watches her play with clear interest ]

[voreaciously]

[There are variations on this phrase like

"You're going to die!"

and

"Do you want to die?"

But there is also "I'm the best."]

He is very eloquent.

[is that a jok]

[dereban]

. . .

[ that.


sure is some variations. ]

Yep. Master of Words right there.

[voreaciously]

He is a very strong character, though.

[It's tricky, the A.I. is actually decent, but she manages to get a final smash and then it is down to two characters of four=

[guardiandeity]

[ He is going to sit NEXT TO HER cheering every move ]

This bastard's really cool, huh!?

[voreaciously]

[this bastard also sounds EXACTLY LIKE YOU.]

He thinks so, anyway, I'm certain.

[guardiandeity]

Eh? Whadd'ya mean? You talk to videogames?

[voreaciously]

[why are you like this susanoo]

...The characters are us.

[schrodingerscockroach]

[LISTEN EVERYTHING ON THIS TRAIN IS WEIRD and here's a teenager.]

[On the short side and while not a twig, he certainly looks like it with the hiked up camo pants and overly large pink sweatshirt. You know, that Dusk usually wears.]

[Military experiments add a lot of inches and width, okay, okay.]

[But video games. Video games he knows.]

[He's just kind of watching the gathering from a distance, but he'll slooooowly make his way over.]

[daydreamshimmer]

[She's looking over everything with a curious eye for a few moments.]

[Then she's grinning widely.]

I know this stuff.

[Also she has a rather impressive new tattoo with the wings wrapped around her neck, and a fiery, slightly leafy feathery tail moving down her spine and ending on her side.]

[Completely covering the scales she got.]
