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.]

	Yeah, sure. 's over here. [ And he'll lead the way across the floor, to the music and rhythm games. Y'know. The games he's awful at. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Jaesoo's going to live here forever and it doesn't take him long to find the drum game and practically latch on to it.] I'm not very good on drums, but I know a little bit. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	That's okay. I'm real bad at it so you're gonna be great in comparison. Wanna show me? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

I'll try an easy one.

[And then he's seating himself in front of the game, drumsticks in hand as he experimentally taps at the drums. He chooses a simple enough song and then the game starts, a look of total concentration taking over his normally smiling face as he listens closely.

There are a few mistakes early on, but he quickly finds the rhythm and gets the hang of it, bobbing his head and shoulders along with the music as he plays along, feet pressing down on the pedals and wrists flicking this way and that with an ease that shows he's done this before.]

	[ Aidan hangs around, watching with increasingly widening eyes. He doesn't see the mistakes, just how well Jaesoo is doing. It's kind of amazing really, watching someone who's really good at something he sucks at. ] Whoa! You're real good — you play drums for real? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[He swivels in his seat to face Aidan, a satisfied grin on his face after seeing the decent score flash on the display screen after he'd finished.] I had someone teach me the basics. I usually play the piano or a little bit of the guitar. [His tone becomes a bit wistful.] I've always loved music. Dancing is probably what I do best. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	We had some people here who played instruments... Helix was pretty good at th' piano. Michiru is still around, you should talk to her maybe. She plays th' violin. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	foxline 2015-08-19 05:03 am UTC (link)
	I've always wanted to try the violin. [Remembers the name for later! It would've been nice to meet another pianist, though.] What happened to Helix? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	redclayheroics 2015-08-19 08:39 am UTC (link)
	He disappeared. People do that here, all th' time. One day they're here an' th' next... they're not. [ He's been here six solid months. Guess how many friends he's lost? ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	foxline 2015-08-20 06:29 am UTC (link)
	[Way too many??] Oh. [He nods, expression growing somber.] I heard about that from Yuuri. It has to be tough. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	redclayheroics 2015-08-20 08:36 am UTC (link)
	[ Exactly that. ] 's not great. You get used to it after awhile an' some people don't leave. [ Leaving you dreading the day when they finally will. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	How long have you been here, Aidan? [To be able to get used to something like that.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	redclayheroics 2015-08-21 08:05 am UTC (link)
	Six months, just about. Little longer, maybe... 's hard to keep track. (Reply to this) (Parent)
