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.]

	What's that? [He's genuinely curious here. Is that some kind of tech babble? Because he's really bad at those.] —Oh, you mean like a SIM card? [Wait, no. That has to do with phones, doesn't it??] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	pawimprinting 2015-07-15 01:34 am UTC (link)
	No, no a sim. Simulation? Do they have the racing one, the Zombie Raider or Death Hunt XVI? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	foxline 2015-07-15 01:43 am UTC (link)
	They have racing games. I saw a few. I didn't read the names, but they might be what you're talking about. [There's certainly one way to know for sure!!] You'll come and check it out, right? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	pawimprinting 2015-07-15 01:50 am UTC (link)
	[She hadn't been intended to go right that second, more focused on memorizing her way around the prison, but he's asking and she does have all the time right now.] I could play a game or two, I guess. It's been a few years. You really as bad as you say you are? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[He lets out a short laugh, shaking his head all the while.] ... Worse. Get ready to see me completely embarrass myself. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	pawimprinting 2015-07-15 02:14 am UTC (link)
	Now I have to see this. It sounds impressive all on its own. [Someone being that bad at anything is not something she's used to. She grew up with people who all strive to be the top.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	foxline 2015-07-15 03:18 am UTC (link)
	Ah, yeah. You're going to be really surprised. [Laughs again before motioning to the front of the arcade.] I'll wait outside for you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	pawimprinting 2015-07-15 03:26 am UTC (link)
	I think I'm near there. Shouldn't take me too long to find it. [She's good with finding her way and the map is pretty helpful. She gets to the arcade without too much confusion. She's surprised at how nice and clean it looks. The ones she always sees in the movies are dark and grungy with smoke and strobe lights.] Heya. Ready to get this started? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	foxline 2015-07-16 02:14 am UTC (link)
	[A dark and grungy arcade would be a shady place to invite people to, so thank goodness for cleanliness.] As ready as I'll ever be. [Smiles and holds out his hand.] And I'm Jaesoo. Thanks for coming all this way. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	pawimprinting 2015-07-16 03:09 am UTC (link)
	[She takes his hand and shakes it firmly. Her strength may be missing, but she's more than fit.] I'm Seyn Ayliffe. [She lets go and places a heart hand on his shoulder to direct him back into the arcade.] Let's see that racing game you told me about. I think some competition is just what I need right about now. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	foxline 2015-07-17 06:17 am UTC (link)
	Seyn Ayliffe. [He tries the name out as he allows himself to be handled back inside the arcade.] That's a cool name. [He's never heard anything like it. But right, the game! He takes a quick look around before gesturing ahead and heading that way.] It's right over here. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[People liking her real name always gets her smiling.]

Thanks. Yours ain't so shabby either. [Jaesoo isn't exactly a common name where she comes from. This place really is something else. Inside the arcade she follows him to the side where she seems...a seat? It doesn't look anything like the sims she's used to, which is usually just a helmet or visor covering the eyes with attachments. No this is something very different.]

Well, would you look at that! It's completely retro! It even has a stick shift.

	Retro? [His expression turns curious as he reaches out to randomly press a few buttons. He looks very much like he has no idea what he's doing.] Isn't it supposed to look like this? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	pawimprinting 2015-07-25 03:55 am UTC (link)
	There should be a visor and a wheel, but chairs like this I ain't seen except in old movies and history vids. [It's been a few hundred years really.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	foxline 2015-07-31 06:25 am UTC (link)
	Old movies? What you're describing sounds like it belongs in a movie about the future. The ones about robots and flying cars. [And world domination as the robots try and take over the human race?!] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	pawimprinting 2015-08-04 04:00 am UTC (link)
	Well, cars don't really fly, they hover. They're too heavy to fly, but sometimes the anti-grav can make 'em go pretty high. [She says it so easily.] Now...do we just sit down and push start? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	foxline 2015-08-07 06:14 pm UTC (link)
	[Hovering cars? Anti-grav??] That's amazing. [And honestly all he can say about it because wow, he's still having trouble processing everything. But right... back to the game.] Uh, yeah. Let's sit and you can show me how good you are. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	pawimprinting 2015-08-12 03:15 am UTC (link)
	[She laughs and takes a seat in the blue seat, leaving both the red and the black ones open for him to pick from.] Like I said, I haven't played much games myself recently, but it shouldn't be too hard to pick up. I'm sorry if I beat you too much. [She says while still trying to figure out herself exactly what the stick is supposed to do on the side.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	foxline 2015-08-14 06:47 am UTC (link)
	[Sits down in the red seat!!] And I'm sorry if I don't put up too much of a fight. [They can figure this out together because... what is the stick supposed to do?? Whatever, he'll just press a bunch of random buttons and...] ... I think I started the race. [TRUE ENOUGH, the game has begun.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	pawimprinting 2015-08-16 07:06 pm UTC (link)
	Now we're talkin'. [The sound pings and the green light shows on the screen and Seyn immediately grabs for the wheel and hits on what she assumes is the gas pedal. And she barely manages not to crash into Jaesoo's car right out of the gate.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[Jaesoo isn't faring much better. His car swerves all over the place and he's not exactly helping with the way he handles the wheel like he's trying to pull it off the machine.

God, don't ever let this guy get a driver's license.

At one point, his car gets turned around and he starts driving in the opposite direction??]

How do I turn around? [He starts cracking up and that doesn't help either.] I'm going back to the starting line!

	pawimprinting 2015-08-24 02:51 am UTC (link)
	You're goin' the wrong way! [She laughs.] Spin your wheel around and hit the gas or I'm gonna leave you behind. [This is probably not the way to win a race, but losing because he is driving the wrong way is just sad.] (Reply to this) (Parent)
