ATTN GARDEN:

I have successfully regained my entire video game collection. Anyone willing to challenge me at my own game? (I'd ask my roommate, but he's too lame for this busy with schoolwork.) Experience totally necessary, but I guess I could teach you. If you asked nicely.

- Damian R.

[Sometime later today, Damian's patrolling Garden pacing around the Quad as if he's nervous about something. He's partially nervous: he's not sure how his latest exploits in skipping class and being a general no-show is going to reflect for the upcoming Quarter, but Headmaster assured him that he'd be alright if he "made up for it somehow."

God, why does Headmaster make him feel so guilty about things?

Day sighs before punching a tree for good measure. Like anyone'd write him up for it: he IS technically the head of the DiscComm now. Plus it feels good!!

... Even if that feeling doesn't last as long as he'd like it to.]

[gogoghostpowers]

Okay! Got it. I'll be there in a few minutes!

[And true to his word, about 5 minutes later, Danny is knocking on the door of A103.]

[bratbeyond]

[Damian quickly opens the door and lets Danny in.] Hey! Come on in.

[He's got the video games set up in the common area, since he's pretty sure the other Damian (Ahki) wouldn't mind for the time being. Tossing a controller to Danny, he turns the system on before going to fetch them a platter of cookies.]

I know you're like, from my past, so I don't know how much the controls've changed... but it shouldn't be too bad.

[gogoghostpowers]

[Danny examines the controller from various angles.]

It doesn't look too different!

[bratbeyond]

Well, as long as you can keep up.

[He shrugs, flopping onto the couch.] You want a cookie? They're chocolate-chip.

[gogoghostpowers]

Oh, uh, yeah, actually! That'd be really nice. Thanks. [Danny takes a cookie.]

And well...I'll definitely try!

[flashesforward]

I have experience and then some. Count me in.

Then stop by A103 whenever you're free! I'll have the door open.

Sweet, what kind of video games do you have?

BBS

[bratbeyond]

The entire Perfect Prosecutor series, Uncharted Racing, Gran Turismo 15 and 16, Portal 12 and 13, Steel Samurai, most of the Penultimate Legend series, Immortal Combat, Soul Fighter 1, 2, and 3, Rose Petal, We Adore Katamari...

I'm not sure how much of these you've heard of, but it's pretty much everything: RPGs, third-person shooters, platformers, multiplayer party games, and a few other stuff just because.

Dude

Duuude, do you Super Smash Brothers: Brawl?

BBS

[bratbeyond]

Nah, that's too old school.

I just have Super Smash Brothers: Skirmish. 8]

[flashesforward]

Nice try, but I know my games and that game was never released.

At least not in my world.

Are you out every evening? [Gakupo is pretty sure that as a SeeD, he can be out as late as he wishes. Or so he thinks.]

[bratbeyond]

[Day glances up at Gakupo and slowly shakes his head.]

Not... necessarily. [It just kind of happened since the DiscComm is now a one-man show.] I've still gotta sleep like everyone else.

[eggplantallergy]

Really, where do you find the time?

I saw the post asking for assistance with the Disciplinary Committee. Is there a low number of members?

[bratbeyond]

[Busted.]

It's... kind of just me for now.

[eggplantallergy]

[At least he's being subtle about it?]

Ah...I wouldn't mind assisting, even if I'm a SeeD. [All he's been doing is spending time in the music room or training.] Although things tend to be relatively quiet around here, you shouldn't have to handle it on your own.

[bratbeyond]

[Help would be awesome, even if he's not supposed to accept it from a SeeD, but...]

You sure? I thought you SeeD had missions or stuff to keep up with.

[eggplantallergy]

[Usually, Gakupo is not a rule breaker. Quite the opposite. But he's willing to do so to help out a friend.]

We do, but not all the time. I could teach, but I'm still learning things myself. [Smiles wryly.] So if you need the help, I can offer it in my spare time.

[misspouncellor]

:33 < ...could i watch?

[bratbeyond]

If you've got nothing better to do, sure.

[f8tal]

What kiiiiiiiind of video g8mes?

[bratbeyond]

Pretty much anything created between 2035 and 2044. Mostly JRPGs and third-person shooters, but I've got platformers, puzzle games, virtual board games, and whatever amused me when I bought it.
