There had been meetings for this type of thing before but he'd never attended them, always a little too leery of being around the people he imagined played the Rhyme MMO like he did; Nerdy, loud and awkward, but then he knew that was an unfair judgement which was why he was sat outside the park where the supposed meeting spot for the game was being held.
He'd been playing it pretty heavily for a while now, finding that it was easier wasting time on this than trying to wile away the hours he was kept cooped up inside the Roseus compound; Especially on the days where the blackout phases were replaced by migraines if he tried to leave the compound (not that he knew that Sly was the one behind debilitating him like that). He took another bite out of the doughnuts he'd bought on the walk over, the paper bag with the remaining three treats in it sat on his lap.
What time was it? He raised his wrist to look at his watch, noting that in another fifteen minutes or so they were supposed to meet. At first he'd met him in the player versus player areas and they made a habit of fighting and rematching and fighting, the tally of who won had been pretty evened out at first, but Aoba had probably taken beating him a bit too seriously and geared his character up to specifically fuck with him.
He went by 'psuedorabbit', they'd formed an odd acquaintanceship though they'd never met. There had been skype calls while they'd taken part in group activities that generally culminated in them killing other player characters. A few days ago they'd swapped numbers and Aoba had been aiming to meet him at the carnival when he'd found out the Noiz lived in town, but he'd woken up hours later in his bed with a hazy confusion as to how he'd gotten from the carnival to there.
A hand swiped through his hair in agitation, golden eyes flicking to and fro in an attempt to look for someone he'd never met while he shoved the last of the doughnut into his mouth.
