Poly crosspost -> Post #52, video/action

[blackshadow]

[ action ]
[ Tyr's wandering around the square now and taking advantage of the lack of curses to look at the different stores. It's more or less just a leisurely walk, though. Eventually, he stops around building ten and posts to the network. ]

[ video ]
It was like this before a while ago, wasn't it? More than a week without any curses. [ He doesn't sound all that certain about it. ] It makes me wonder if the deities are saving their energy for something big to happen later...

...If they are, then I... [ He starts, but then thinks better of it. ] Nevermind.

[ And he turns the device off. ]


[ ooc: Livejournal post! Responding on either site is okay.

Please don't friend this journal. I might use a different one if Poly stays journal-based! ]

[ Sheena stops a second to look at those lights, but he catches up in no time to Tyr. ]

Some more other world gadgets, huh...

[ it's more said to himself. This different world - it had all sorts that he'd never seen. Really, hearing Tyr talk about it, he didn't know what to really expect. Other than the television and the device, he hadn't decided to bother with anything else.

Oh. But the kettle was okay. And the toaster. He had no problem with those kinda things. ]

[blackshadow]

Yeah... [ He hadn't been thinking of it too much. Even though he's not entirely used to them, he's stopped seeing them as being alien. ] Are you still getting used to them?

[ He holds the door open for Sheena as he enters. ]

[moregirls]

[ Hah, you're not getting a thanks for that, gentleman Tyr. ]

I'm doing fine. [ And, happily enough- ] I can make toast.

[blackshadow]

[ lolol it's not even like that, Princess Sheena. ]

Ah, you figured out how to use that, huh?

[moregirls]

[ stop hitting on me weirdo ]

'Course I did. How long did it take you? It's easy.

[blackshadow]

[ Haa haa. ]

I don't remember. It was a while ago...

[moregirls]

[ creep ]

So anyway- where's the one you wanted to show me? [ He's looking around the arcade. ] It's not these things here, is it?

[ referring to the... arcade things. He's not sure what he imagined, but... no he doesn't really know what to think a thing where you play as people beating each other up should look like. ]

[blackshadow]

It is. There are some other games, too if you don't want to try them, but...

[ No, he drags Sheena over to one of the pastel-coloured games. It's call "Rabbit Quest" and features a black-and-white rabbit hopping around to collect carrots and defeat enemies, like a combination of Sonic and Super Mario games.

But cuter. ]

I thought this one would be your type.

[moregirls]

[ .............

He's look at it. He's looking at the black-and-white rabbit hopping around. It's cute.


It's a rabbit.

............ ]


... Uhh?

[blackshadow]

It's a rabbit.

[ ~innocent~ ]

[moregirls]

No damn.

[ seriously, what. ]

[blackshadow]

Wanna try it?

[moregirls]

[ Pointing to it. ] Is it gonna involve the rabbit getting pulverised?

[blackshadow]

—Of course not. Does it look like that to you?

[moregirls]

No, but that's what you were talking about playing, so I didn't know!

[blackshadow]

That was something different... This is the other game.

[moregirls]

Oh. So it's just gonna be cute?

[blackshadow]

That's right.

...So, do you wanna try it?

[moregirls]

Uh, well...

... Sure, I guess. But, uh- what am I supposed to do?

[blackshadow]

[ Tyr brightened up a bit at the question and slipped in an orange coin to start the game. ]

There's a lesson at the beginning. All you really do is play as a rabbit and race around collecting food and running from farmers.

[moregirls]

That's it? [ He's more surprised that something like that would be a game. He looks at the screen, then to the buttons around it. ]

It's going to tell me how to do that, right?

[blackshadow]

Yeah.

[ He steps aside for Sheena. ]

I already paid for a round for you, so go ahead.

[moregirls]

[ Okay, he steps forward!! And... something on the screen saying to press start? Looking down at the buttons- and he sees one saying that! So he presses it...!! ]

[blackshadow]

[ And the screen changes in a flurry of carrots and little, white blossoms to say "STAGE ONE!".

You are a tiny, slightly-bouncing rabbit, Sheena, in a pastel green and blue land. Press the red button to jump and the blue button to burrow! ]

[moregirls]

[ Uh, okay, let him look again to see which one's blue and which one's red.

... And he'll press the red one - and the bunny jumps! Okay...

So... pressing the blue now...

And it's burrowing! ]
