We're getting sidetracked, Inaba-san. The score is tied, and it's your turn.

[dereban]

Ah, that's true. . .

[ Her interest is still there, but best not to deal with that right now. ]

I've been a guy before. I don't remember my first kiss. My first crush was Atsushi-- to specify, the one that isn't here.

[guileturncoat]

Third one. Atsushi-kun is a good boy, but I would not be surprised to hear that you had a crush before him.

[dereban]

You're right about that.

I'm surprised you believe the first two, though.

[guileturncoat]

There's enough SCPs around here that do weird things, I can see genderswapping happen. And as for the first kiss, the amnesia drugs the Foundation uses can be pretty effective.

[dereban]

Maybe I should consider myself lucky that neither of those happened here.

Anyway, it's your turn now.

[guileturncoat]

[That just raises further questions about Inaba's world.]

I can speak three languages, I have a girlfriend, and I didn't finish high school.

[dereban]

[ PLEASE ASK HER ABOUT IT. . . .


squints

at him

with much scrutiny because if she gets this wrong he wins

(she is absolutely going to get this wrong or else i'll die laughing) ]

The. . . third one?

[ INABA WHY AREN'T YOU GOING FOR THE POTENTIALLY OBVIOUS SECOND ONE ]

[guileturncoat]

[SMILE SMILE]

I've been at the Foundation for years, and they don't exactly value our education here. So nope, I haven't finished high school.

...though actually at this point I could probably just take the GED exam and pass it.

[dereban]

Wait.

It was the obvious one, wasn't it?!

no judgement here

[guileturncoat]

Sure was! Do you really think any girl would date a disaster like me?

[x] doubt

[dereban]

. . . Yes?

[ Well, that and she thought that it wouldn't be the obvious choice. ]

Anyway, you won the bet.

[guileturncoat]

Oh, so I get to make you do something, hmm~?

[dereban]

[ welp


this is how she dies ]

As long as it's something I can reasonably do, yes.

[guileturncoat]

[Give him a few moments, he'll be right back.

He comes back with a PSP and a copy of Spyro: Year of the Dragon.]

Beat this game and tell me what you think about it.

[dereban]

. . . Oh, it's this game.

It never got a Japanese release, so I had to import it when it first came out. There was even a run of this game at various GDQs.

[guileturncoat]

You've already played it?

[He sounds disappointed, but hey! That means they can nerd about video games.]

[dereban]

Not on PSP, but the original Playstation release, yeah. I'll play it if you want me to, but you can give me something else to do instead.

[guileturncoat]

...actually you should still play it. The disc registers as a cracked game and it makes for some interesting errors. I wonder if you'll have the patience to play through it.

[dereban]

So there would probably be a lot of glitches in it, huh. I guess I can compare it to the original game. . .

[ A bit of a melodramatic sigh, there. ]

I'd say we should play another game, but if the stakes are going to be this easy, I don't know if I want to.

[guileturncoat]

We could still play another game. Maybe you'll win and get to boss me around instead.

[dereban]

Hmm.

Tempting. Did you have any games in mind?

[guileturncoat]

Russian roulette with hot pepper chocolate?

[dereban]

You actually have hot pepper chocolate.

[guileturncoat]

[He goes over to his desk and pulls out a little box containing six pieces of chocolate.]

I was going to use it to tease Atsushi-kun, but this is a worthy use of it as well. I can always get more too.
