Personal Log #18 - [Action - All Day]

The Dome:

[One of the simulator doors is wide open for anyone to see inside, and for the most part, the room is empty... except for a tv, and a large couch; the back of which is facing the door. For anyone who knows the Vulcan well, they'll recognize the cap of neat, black hair sticking above the back of the couch. What will seem odd though are the sounds coming from the room...

...sounds, for those who would recognize them, that resemble something like video games from the mid eighties to early nineties.

If anyone dares to venture into the room and walks around the couch, they'll see the floor littered with games for the various consoles set up by the tv. Currently, Spock is engrossed with Super Mario Bros for the SNES, his eyebrows and mouth fixated in a scary looking frown as he navigates through the levels.]




[ooc: Spock has been gone for just about two weeks, and is now suffering under a inconvenient effect: he's addicted to video games. For those who would like to jump in on this, there are extra controllers. *hint hint*
Also, it's good to be back~ /hugs everyone/]
removeimpurity: (Not too bad. I think.)

'Luigi'? They have names?

[Syre mimics the Vulcan's hand placement, then looks over at the TV once mo-- oh, there's a little green man there now! She wasn't expecting that.]

[She spends a few moments familiarizing herself with the controls, running back and forth in place before she finds her confidence to move onward. Luigi hops over a pipe and onto a Goomba's head, flattening it almost comically; Syre laughs quietly, seemingly amused by the small running man and the easily defeated monsters.]

[And then, after mistakenenly jumping into one of the blocks, a sparkling star comes out of it, and Syre's eyes widen.]


Hey, what's tha—oh, it's getting away!

[If there were any more appropriate times for comedic music, it would be now. Syre seems almost too invested in trying to get the little bounding star, and just as it's about to jump into a pit, Luigi touches it...]

[And then the fun starts. Syre all but beams as she starts barreling through Goombas and other nasties, intently focused on running through as many of the baddies as she can before her short-lived invincibility wears off.]

[Syre realizes her folly just one second too late. Poor, poor Luigi meets his end at the hand of one last Goomba, and Syre almost seems to pout in disappointment.]

... Oh. [She almost sounds like a sad child.] Well. I guess it's your turn now, huh?

[She glances over at Spock, lips curled into a girlish smile.]
removeimpurity: (Gods Above!)

It is rather strange how a simulation on a screen can cause us to feel things in such a specific manner...

[...says the woman who's currently second place on Banshee's Boardwalk, of all stages, with Luigi of all characters...]

...ah, there's no railing the—!!

[...and then the kart goes careening off the track, wasting her precious spot as Lakitu takes his sweet time pulling Luigi out of the void.]
removeimpurity: (This... This can't be...)

[The woman chuckles mischievously, and mimics his posture as she works to regain her lead. She and Spock are neck and neck the whole rest of the race, and just as it seems she'll overtake him...]

[A red shell from behind knocks into her, and she spins off the track once again.]


Oh for the Gods' sakes!

[Have a very confused woman staring at you for a second, Spock.]

Goodness. Does winning these simulations invoke such happiness in everyone?
