Eighth Pattern ; Audio

[Today, the camera isn't turned on. Hikaru isn't about to really let himself be seen with bruises and a split lip. Nothing irreparable, but he doesn't feel like letting anyone see, and he's not putting on make-up just for talking to the journal.]

So. Gotta ask --

Does this place have any video games? Like... something on a handheld system? I don't even care if it should be in a museum, I need something. Been way too long since I played anything.

[It was, strangely, something he found himself missing a lot as the days went by. He'd grown up in a world of fashion... and video games.

His father had even hinted at leaving his company primarily to Hikaru while their mother left hers primarily to Kaoru. Of course, they'd both work both jobs... Hikaru wasn't quite willing to really accept the idea of being apart from Kaoru, even professionally.]

Can't speak for handhelds [ Other than that one Gold got ] But there's a console or two at the Rec Center and also at least one standing arcade game somewhere around here.

Yeeeah. That involves "sharing" and I want one. That's just mine.

Which is why I figure a handheld would be good. Since, y'know, haven't found any TVs or anything here to hook up something else to.

Mmm. Fair point - I bet you could order something like that off of mission points, but other than that it's the same old, same old: wait around in the Item Shop, listen to some rock music, and see if anything shows up.

Ugh. So boring. So the only way I'm getting one for sure is to do one of those dangerous mission things, huh?

Chess is far more interesting.

Chess requires other people, and Kaoru and I always stalemate. Sooo. Nope.

I play chess. [Snort.]

I've got an Xbox One.

[ .... ]

It doesn't work, though.

Soooo the point in having it is...

Absolutely zero.

Pretty much. Rec center has some, though.

If you don't mind me asking: what's a "video game"?

[hello yes what is modern technology]

[Poor, deprived soul.]

The kind I like are handheld consoles. You play a character in a world, move around, usually have some kind of quest. It's a sort of just... animated, controllable... game. Thing.

[That doesn't give him much to go off of... If anything, he feels a little more confused now.]

Is it like a TV or a microwave?

Video game? I do not believe I have heard of such things before.

Yeah, well, you're old. [Such a sweet boy, isn't he?] Totally get that. They're pretty cool, though.

[He'll take it in stride. He is old after all]

Actually, they don't exist on my world at all.

I grew up with board games and stuff like that so the only place I know for video games is the rec centre.

Like I told the others who've suggested that -- really not a good option for me.

Well, I guess they're not for everybody? It'd be nice if we had some other options but I guess if you wanted something a little more personal, you could always create a game using the computer at the Battle Dome?

If you find any, let me know, yeah? Not much to do around here so far.

[Someone... someone who gets it! FINALLY.]

Yeah, totally will. You'd think they'd at least have a Gameboy or something for everyone, y'know? Even old-school kind.

Hey, I'd be happy to play some old-school Zelda. Or if there's some consoles around I'm more of a Mario Kart guy.

You'd think that's not too much to ask, right?

I think Luke had a simulation going for the battle craft from his world. I used to play in that sometimes. It's more immersive than a hand held.

Battle craft?

Yeah, I think he called them X and Y fighters if I remember? Something like that. They're used in space combat. You fly them.
