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]

I don't think the demons would stand for it. Or maybe they'd find it hilarious, who knows.

[technologic]

[April giggles, and gives him a nod.] Or maybe both. Of course, they could also redecorate the other parts of the portal to match.

[alephbet]

Neon green and pink. Welcome to Disco Makai.

[technologic]

And you would be the disco dancing champion of Disco Makai, right?

[alephbet]

Absolutely, who else would measure up?

[technologic]

Hmm... I dunno, what if there was a demon of disco or something?

[alephbet]

I'd beat him.

[He'd only have 200,000,000 HP.]

[technologic]

[Ffffffff-

Well, he did beat God after all.] Hehe, yeah, I'm positive you would. I don't think anyone could match up to your dancing abilities, even if they were a demon.

[alephbet]

Hm...

[Aleph scrolls down the list of songs and picks "The Devil Went Down To Georgia".] I could win this too.

[technologic]

[Blink, and she grins at him.] Really?

[alephbet]

Not that Louis steals souls. But if it were my soul on a dancing game, I could win.

[technologic]

Even against Louis?

[alephbet]

He's more of a ballroom dancer.

[technologic]

Ehe, I guess that would make sense. So yeah, you could win.

... Me, on the other hand, would probably be more worried.

[alephbet]

I'd save you with my amazing dancing skills.

[And they'd dance or die, d-d-d-dance or die.]

[technologic]

[Yes, mun greatly approves of this song-]

Hmm? You would?

[alephbet]

Absolutely!

[Like he's going to kick butt at this song.]

[technologic]

Then I would be in debt to you and your dancing skills.

[And April... does her best, at least. But it's still a pretty good score.]

[alephbet]

I'm sure someday you'll save me from a rampaging piece of electronics.

[technologic]

And we can't let you be taken down by a piece of tech, after all. But don't worry, I'm pretty sure my powers could take care of it.

[alephbet]

My hero.

[technologic]

I'm glad to be of assistance! Plus, I care about you too much to let you be beaten up by tech.

[alephbet]

And I care about you too much to have people make fun of your dancing, or to steal your soul.

[technologic]

[Whoops, turning faintly red now. But she quickly laughs it off.] W-well, my dancing is kinda bad, so I don't care if people laugh. But I'm glad you would stop any potential soul stealing.

[alephbet]

It's still kind of mean, isn't it?
