DAY 332 ‣ video&action.
( video )

You guys have an arcade...!

[The video shows off one very fascinated newcomer, his eyes wide with disbelief and mouth hanging open in awe. It seems to take a second or two for him to come back to his senses and once he does, his face breaks out into a huge grin.]

Someone come and play these games with me. It's not any fun if I'm alone. [What concerns about being stuck in prison for the rest of his life? He's practically jumping up and down in excitement.] And if you need to be further convinced, we can make a bet. Why is that convincing? I suck. You'll win. I'll buy you food.

[And then he pauses dramatically for effect, a twinkle in his eyes as he taps a finger to his forehead in an exaggerated sort of way.]

Wait, hold on. That's right... everything's free here. [There's no way he forgot. As someone who's had money struggles for quite a few years, this is the dream.] You'll get boasting rights, then. Or I'll carry you on my back for the whole day. People just need to get over here, please.

( action )

[Well, if there's one thing for certain, Jaesoo doesn't have a career in basketball. Each time he tosses a ball, it either bounces off the rim or just... doesn't get anywhere close. That doesn't seem to be getting him down, though, and he leisurely continues missing every single point like the pro he is not.

He occasionally stops playing to hang around near the entrance of the arcade, ready to swoop in and drag any poor sucker he can find into the game room.]

	[Shh, just pretend they aren't there.] Are you busy? Do you have any plans at the moment? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	demon_king 2015-07-14 01:56 am UTC (link)
	I, um, no? I guess I don't. Playing is more fun with someone, isn't it? [Sheepish.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	foxline 2015-07-14 02:30 am UTC (link)
	That's right. And since you're free, I'll be waiting in front of the arcade. [What can he say, he works fast.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	demon_king 2015-07-14 02:36 am UTC (link)
	[This is how people feel when he gets them to join the baseball team, isn't it?] I guess I'll be there soon! [He wouldn't want to keep him waiting. Hey, he didn't even get the name of the train that just ran him over! And yet, here he is walking up to the arcade not terribly long after their whirlwind conversation.] Hi. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	foxline 2015-07-14 02:45 am UTC (link)
	[Jaesoo's waiting by the front and as soon as he spots the other boy, he's hurrying over with a broad smile.] Hey, you made it. [Not that he'd thought he'd get bailed on.] It wasn't too long of a walk over here, was it? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	demon_king 2015-07-14 03:00 am UTC (link)
	[Yuuri smiles back. He's used to being the more exuberant one. You have turned the tables, sir!] Not really. I actually live in sector 3. Oh, that's this sector in case you didn't know. Did you just get here today? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	foxline 2015-07-14 03:19 am UTC (link)
	[Nods his head! He got out of that orange mess as soon as he could, but his second welcoming gift isn't as easy to part with.] Yeah, and I have the, uh. [Pulls up the leg of his pants just a bit to show off that lovely ankle monitor.] This thing. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	demon_king 2015-07-14 03:29 am UTC (link)
	Oh, that. Yeah, they'll take it off tomorrow. I don't think it really does much unless you have special powers though. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	foxline 2015-07-14 03:38 am UTC (link)
	[Fr... eezes... So that's why it's been so quiet in his head. But yeah, special powers is a subject to avoid and he drops his pant leg so the monitor disappears from sight.] I almost forgot to introduce myself. [He's a bit flustered, but plays it off by offering his hand for a shake.] I'm Jaesoo. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	demon_king 2015-07-14 04:31 am UTC (link)
	[Did he say something wrong? Oh, yeah. I'm Yuuri.] It's nice to meet you, Jaesoo. [He reaches out to take the other boy's hand in a friendly shake.] You must really like arcades, huh? [Yuuri used to spend a lot of time at the arcade back when Josh was in the dome, but that was a different arcade in a different dome.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	foxline 2015-07-14 04:50 am UTC (link)
	[Thank goodness for Yuuris. Returns the shake and then lets go! He glances back at the arcade, his expression thoughtful.] This is actually my first arcade. I saw them a lot back home, but never got the chance to spend any time in them. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	demon_king 2015-07-14 04:52 am UTC (link)
	Oh! Well, this place is good for that. It has all kinds of things. There are even robots that cook food! [No, really, that's awesome even if no one else agrees.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	foxline 2015-07-14 05:46 am UTC (link)
	[Virtual prison... robots... makes sense sort of. Still, Jaesoo will share in that enthusiasm with a laugh!] I can't cook at all so that's a relief. [And then he's hopping from one foot to the other.] Let's go inside and play something. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	demon_king 2015-07-14 12:02 pm UTC (link)
	Neither can I! [Best bonding material there, but do you need to pee, sir?] Oh, sure. What kind of game do you like? [He asks despite knowing he just said he'd never been to one before today.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	foxline 2015-07-14 05:22 pm UTC (link)
	I was playing a racing game before you got here. We should play that one. [Doesn't mention that he crashed and burned every time he played. He turns to the arcade, making his way over to the game.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	demon_king 2015-07-15 12:30 am UTC (link)
	That sounds good! [Heading inside with him.] So, what kinds of things did you do at home? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	foxline 2015-07-15 01:36 am UTC (link)
	[He starts setting up a game, but at that question, his focus shifts entirely onto Yuuri.] Dancing. [It's one of his few passions and his tone grows fond.] I'm... Or I guess I should say I was a dance instructor. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	demon_king 2015-07-16 01:18 pm UTC (link)
	Oh. Maybe you can do that here too. Euphie has a school. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	foxline 2015-07-17 06:24 am UTC (link)
	[He pauses, head tilting to one side as he thoughtfully considers the suggestion.] Who's Euphie? The principal? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	demon_king 2015-07-19 03:59 am UTC (link)
	I never really thought about it like that, but I guess so. She started the school and runs it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	foxline 2015-07-22 06:41 am UTC (link)
	Aah, that's good. School's important, after all. [Seats himself in front of a game machine then gestures for Yuuri to do the same. Talking's more comfortable this way!] You look like you're still in high school. Am I right? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	demon_king 2015-07-24 03:44 am UTC (link)
	That's right. I'm 16. At least I'm still in high school in Japan. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	foxline 2015-07-31 06:27 am UTC (link)
	I'm nineteen, almost twenty. I guess even sixteen-year-olds can end up in prison. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	demon_king 2015-07-31 03:21 pm UTC (link)
	There are some people a couple of years younger here now, and even younger than that awhile ago. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	foxline 2015-08-04 10:49 pm UTC (link)
	Aah... being a criminal isn't very hard, it looks like. [Swivels around in his chair as his expression turns thoughtful.] So that means people can leave? If it was a while ago. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
