 "oh yeah, dude! i play racing car games. some shooters." noah signs into his own computer too, fingers clumsy in their typing. there is no smooth rhythm— and it's as if he's searching for the alphabet itself. "but i've been getting into a bunch of other games lately."

at adrian's confusion, noah shuffles his seat over. it bumps into adrian's as he peers at the the other's computer screen.

"what do you usually play then?" noah hums. "like do you do the ones with raids and shit? and like, you're on a schedule and you gotta log in to something at a certain time."

his houndour stirs from the comfortable alcove underneath his desk, but lowers its head again with a yawn.

"Well, there was a shooter I played like that, but it's kind of boring these days..." He was younger then, too, but he'd quite enjoyed those years. He'd jostled in place by Noah's clumsy clambering for the keyboard, which prompted him to cast a mildly fuming glare their way. "Racing, huh? I never liked most racers, unless it was like, some sort of crash derby with power items or something. I like those kinds..."

He began to drift off as he began sifting through the various client icons on the screen. Most of what they had available on here seemed horribly dated or like some sort of indie game, although they did have the latest few shooters installed from the past year's anticipated releases. But he'd given up on most of them after realizing he was trash at them.

"There was that one MMORPG that was coming out this year, wasn't there? Bulwarks something...?" ...Nope, can't remember it.

After a few moments of casually clicking around, he finally settles on a typical shooter, launching the game and quickly finding it needed an update. Typical. Adrian's amber eyes flitted over to Noah's screen, a deft finger brought to the monitor's screen, tapping against the selfsame game's logo.

Call of Duty.


"Wanna try this one? It's pretty... popular."

 "oh yeah! blades and bulwarks." noah says.

he scoots around in his chair, the wheels rolling back and forth. his houndour, frey, grumbles and like a cat, swats at the chair leg so its trainer stops.

"sure, are ya good at it?" he moves in toward adrian's space, chair bumping against his. he leans in to view the other's monitor before facing adrian with a smile. "like, i could play but i don't mind watching too, dude. 'cause you'd just be carrying me." noah laughs as the clients complete their updates.

"are you good at shooters? like, do ya always get a positive kda, man?"

"I used to be pretty good," he said with no small hint of pride. He recalled late nights playing the older iterations of the game, getting drunkards to cuss and swear when he beat them, and spewing his own obscenities when he lost...

Good times; simpler times. Would that he could go back and relive some of those memories. Instead they'd be trying to make some new ones.

Adrian cast a weary glance Noah's way. "Don't you start backseat gaming on me, man, I hate that," he warned testily. "I'm not a fan of their newer games. I stopped playing them for multiplayer years ago." The game menu launched, and he queued into matchmaking for Free For All, something of a personal favorite. The game loaded in and the countdown to start began.

3... 2... 1!


Adrian immediately assaulted the controller with input, sprinting into the nearest enemy by exploiting the sound of their footsteps, peppering them with his equipped submachine gun before... well, somehow dying first despite getting the first hit. Somehow every bullet of his after the first few missed their hitbox, much to his chagrin. Rrrgh.

"That's what I hate about this game; First hit, I'm using the gun in its proper range, but he just blasts me because of ridiculous recoil and flinch..." He wears a disgruntled pout before he respawns, sprinting into the nearest enemy once more and succeeding in killing them, though his screen goes all red with jam from the damage he took. "Fuckin' noob," he remarks, putting them on blast for losing to him with a shotgun out.

Am I being too toxic...? ...Nah, it's Call of Duty.

 noah doesn't seem phased by adrian's language. the simulated gore and pinging numbers flash across his eyes— and the excitement builds within him. galvanized, adrian's snarl inspires one of his own.

"yeah, you're fucking trash!" noah says close to adrian's mic. "hey, you're pretty good, man. like, i'm so slow with my mouse."

frey grumbles, bellyaching underneath the desk as he flops onto his side. licking his chops, the dog nestles into his shadowy den.


"do you think it's real? like, how the news say people get violent because of video games." noah hums, hovering in a distracting orbit.

"...I don't think so."

His violent outburst might've suggested otherwise.

"If anything, I think it helps being able to blow off some steam." Adrian can't help but feel a little self-conscious after a question like that, but he manages to perform exceptionally despite himself. Though he doesn't completely dominate the leaderboard, he maintains a positive k/d. At the end of the day, that's all a gamer can really hope for sometimes. Unless they were cracked out on Adderall or whatever. "Why, do you?" Or was I too loud?
