Hacking #07: Video Games (Closed)

[technologic]

Characters: April and Aleph
Setting: Floor 14
Format: Whichever, though starting with brackets.
Summary: In which April tries to be a good girlfriend and tries to cheer Aleph up after what has happened over the past day or so.

[Despite April's general lack of social skills and tact, she did like to make people she cared about happy. And even April could tell that Aleph wasn't happy, so of course she felt that she needed to do something about this.

Which is why later that day, Aleph will end up being dragged to the media room by April, who is looking equal parts determined and nervous about this.] ... I also made some food too, and it's none of that cafeteria stuff.

[and she'll point at said food in a basket when they walk into the room.]

Comments

[alephbet]

Of course I will.

[technologic]

Thanks, Aleph. I guess I should try to stop worrying then. [She finishes off her piece of cake and stretches lazily.]

[alephbet]

[Aleph follows suit shortly.]

What games did you want to play?

[technologic]

Hmm, there's a few here like, um... [Just gonna rummage through some of the games.] There's that game you showed me before, Melty Kart, and then there's Nario Party and there's a dancing game too, I think.

[alephbet]

Let's try Nario Party this time. I've heard that's good.

[NO ALEPH IT RUINS FRIENDSHIPS]

[technologic]

[W E L P]

Okay, sounds good! [Just gonna put the game on and grab a controller, then and she'll just pick Ruigi as her character.]

[alephbet]

[He goes for the girl in the pink dress. Problem?]

[technologic]

[So, Princess Beach then. And soon the game starts!

... Annnd soon cue an everyone against everyone minigame this'll be fun.]

[alephbet]

[I'm sorry, April, but he will jump on you forever.]

[technologic]

[RUDE. Jumping on you back.

... Okay, she doesn't win that one, but she made sure Aleph didn't either. So there.]

[alephbet]

I'll get you next time.

[technologic]

You can try! [Just grinning now, heh heh.

Which doesn't last long cause oh dammit Doo don't steal her coins for BK, that's rude.]

[alephbet]

Ghosts. [B|||]

[technologic]

Rude ghosts. Those were my coins... [Pout. And heeey another minigame. Gonna try to win this one then.]

[alephbet]

[Trying to beat up the computers is easier than beating up April because computers are dumb.]

[technologic]

[April can't argue with that. Of course, she does have to go beat him up eventually. So cue jumping on.]

[alephbet]

[Awww, she won. Booooo.]

[technologic]

Yay, I win! [Aw yeah, cue the proudest grin.] I'm better at this than I thought.

[alephbet]

Good job.

[Secretly plotting revenge.]

[technologic]

[Aw shi-

And April does manage to keep up her winning streak, since she eventually manages to snag a star for herself. And she looks pretty pleased about this.]

[alephbet]

It's an early lead. It doesn't mean anything.

[technologic]

But it's still a lead, and I'm gonna take advantage of that. [She just... has to make sure her star doesn't get yoinked.]

[alephbet]

[Promptly YOINKS HER STAR.]

[technologic]

[Ruuuuude.

April is just gonna huff and pout now. In that case, she'll just kick his ass at another minigame then.]

[alephbet]

[He really sucks at this doesn't he.]
