Video Games (Open)

[seraphicthunder.livejournal.com]

It had been one of those little things Reimi was never really good at, but she had settled into a routine since she had gone to the Media Library so long ago. Having booted up a cute looking JRPG or something close to it, she listened to the opening theme as she began to play, selecting her character.

Right now, playing away, she is almost oblivious to anyone coming up to visit with her.

"But why is it in a video game," she protested, getting closer to the screen at a distance most mothers would have told her to back up before she lost her vision. "Prinnies are not supposed to be in video games!" So went the logic of Lash.

"They belong in Netherworlds and Cele--whatever those others are called!"

"Hmm... well there's other worlds out there right? Maybe this prinny was so famous, it got into a video game! And we're playing the story of how famous he is?" inquired Reimi, giggling at Lash.

"That's soooo weird!" the wunderkind said, sitting down on the floor, still watching the screen. "Zetta told me most of them are the souls of murderers and sinners." He had also talked about video games, but Lash barely remembered that part. Pause. "I made a gun to shoot them out once. It was cool."

"Even sinners and murderers can redeem themselves. That's what I think." said Reimi softly, thinking of her own experiences as she continued to play, entertaining Lash.

"I guess so," she answered, knowing all too well about that herself. "But if you ask me, sometimes you just have to embrace what you are." She looked at the game. "Now it makes me wonder if there's a game about me somewhere, if Prinnies can have some."

"Who knows? Maybe there is one, we just don't have it." said Reimi, perfectly okay with the idea that some of her friends were from games. She was a living MMO character, so why not?

"Don't be silly. That would be too silly." So very silly.

She put her arms on her chin, thinking. "So are there more explosions later? The game looks kinda boring."

"I'm sure there are. This is the beginning of the game after all," said Reimi, working her way into a combat scenario. "Sometimes things start out a little slow."
