First person Gamer (Aria and yours truly)

George entered the game room. It had low light -only that of the open screens- and it wasn't crowded. Perfect, he thought. He went close to the consoles. He wasn't very acquainted with video games -his only experience was his father's Nitendo 64. Instictively, he started looking for one, but he didn't -obviously. This was like, 11 years ago. He sighed. He went close to a ps3 and started looking at the titles - Mortal Kombat, some CoD games, Last of us... nothing he knew or seemed interesting. Too bad. Then something caught his eye. On the WII U that was next, he saw his favourite game ever: "Super smash bros." He imnediately put on the disk and waited for the game to load.

The two screens happened to be next to each other, so he got to sit on the same couch as the girl that was playing a game that was... violent he would describe it. He sat on the other end of the couch, as far as possible. It took him some time to read "single player" and press it. He went on to pick a character and woah... so many! Like triple the ones on N64.

"Who the hell is Sh-shulk? And Z-ero Su-it Sa-mus?" (Note: indication that he's slowly spelling cause dyslexia) he said with a puzzled look.

Come to think of it, there were so many he didn't know. He started looking for Captain Falcon -best ever.

OOC: Haven't played smash? Like the ultimate game if you have friends (e.g. not for me) or for parties (Sable is a party freak, right?)

BIC:He felt a little uncomfortable and annoyed with the girl laughing at his dyslexia. It was a touchy subject for him because people would make fun of it. She though spoke to him in a friendly tone. Noticing her, she looked like an aphrodite kid, even though many girls at camp looked good -probably inherited from the godly side.

"Yes, George. And you are...?" he replied, his attention still fixed on the character selection screen.

Aglaea? It took him a little to remember, a goddess of beauty. So, he hadn't been 100% wrong. He smiled to her and he shook her hand. He nodded towards her screen.

"So, what are you playing there? Seems fairly violent." he said as he finally found Captain Falcon and locked in. He would pick the CPU's randomly. He turned to Sable again waiting for the girl's reply.

The CPU's were Yoshi, Kirby and that Shulk guy -he intentionally picked opponents with small names. He then turned to Sable once again.

"So, they've made more than one of these? Weird." He wasn't that violent, and the violence in Smash was a bit over the top and childish and not to be taken seriously. But blue alien blood? Yeah, not child appropriate in his opinion. Even though they weren't exactly children.

He tried to pick a stage. Annoyingly they all had big names. He decided to read through them all, partly for practice.

George whistled. "That's a lot. I'm pretty sure there have been less Super Smash Bros ones." he said with a smile plastered across his face. He turned to his screen and he picked Final Destination. As he waited for the screen to load he once again turned to the girl, trying to find anything likeable to the game. She seemed good at it, to give credit where it's due. Finally the screen loaded and he was about to starts. Good thing about Smash: No controls needed. It was a random button musher.

After some minutes of silence and button-mashing from George... he lost. Second after Shulk. He sighed. That was his luck. He got a bit pissed off and turned the console off. Checking the other games, nothing seemed really interesting. He turned to the girl once again.

"M-mind if I...erm, joined?" he said, his shy side overcoming him and averting his look, which was weird since he hadn't been like that till now with her. Maybe it was because he thought that he could build a friendship, which made him a bit nervous.

"Th-that's if you don't have a-a problem of course." he added, looking down, not daring to look at her. He thought that it was stupid, but he still wouldn't look at her in the eye.


OOC: Don't worry, I'm only building up intergender bromance.

His turn to smile. "Uhm, yeah..." he said. "Kinda."

Truth was he was a little unnerved by her initial reaction, though it was fully logical. He got the controller and sat next to her. Well, not exactly next to her, he kept a distance.

"So, I assume this ain't a masher like Smash so I will need to figure the controls first." he semi said to her, semi muttered.

"All right then, spam B. Got it." he said with a stupid smile on his face. He waited for the screen to load. "So... m-ulti...yeah, there it is."

Convenient that there was in the first place, in a game like that he thought. Meh, even if he messed up (most probable scenario) Sable seemed good enough to win by herself. So, yeah, no sweat.

"So, what other games do you like?" he said in an attempt to break the ice, before they started.

"Oh well, that means you're experienced enough. My plan will be to loyally follow your command." he said with a smile.

The cinematic scene was... meh. Anyway the game loaded. The controls were tougher than he thought. In the end, he didn't get his butt killed, while Sable seemed to easily handle the grunts herself.

"Damn it's actually hard!" he said, to restrain himself from actually cursing.

Sable laughed, continuing to mash the buttons as she knocked a 'sleeper' backwards on the screen. "Don't worry, the next mission always goes better. How do you like it so far?" She continued to mash the buttons, this time throwing a plasma grenade.

As George learnt how to 'excel' at the run away tactic, he actually decided to try and fight them in a honourable duel... untill he started running for his life again.

"Well, the controls are more complicated than anything l've played before, otherwise it's not bad of a game." he said, after actually killing off a grunt. Yay!

It was almost relieving that she decided to change the game. He felt like he was just embarassing himself and he didn't like how that felt. In the end he nodded to her. "So, like, strategy? Also, you seem to have a thing for aliens." he said in a pitiful attempt to joke.

In all fairness he liked the time he spent with her there. Her aura made him just want to hang out and she didn't seem to be very judgmental. He was rather comfortable -at least for his standards.
