She smirked as he played along, “Where’s your babysitter at, boy? You can get in a lot of trouble in these neck of the woods.”
“Okay, this is just getting weird for me now.” Elijah said with a shake of his head, but still smiling at Camila. “I don’t need an actual babysitter.”

“It’s actually kind of a lot, Eli! You need the good sleeps to be healthy. There’s a reason people go crazy and hallucinate after staying awake for a long time.” Dexter semi-lectured, the concern evident by his facial expressions. It wasn’t like he was trying to be a Debbie Downer, but he was genuinely worried about the other man, “Fine, I’ll give it to you. But you might be if you stay up for mch longer!” A scoff escaped his lips as he listened to him speak, his eyebrows furrowing together, “I feel like whenever people say they don’t like tea, it’s because they just haven’t tried the right one yet. But seriously, be careful dude. I don’t wanna see the coroner rolling you out of the hotel lobby one day. I think I’d be thoroughly sad…” He shook his head, giving him a small smile, “I’m glad you’re good. I worry about you sometimes.”
“I like to think I’m already healthy, and like I said, I don’t need a lot of hours of sleep so I can survive. Look at me, I’m standing right here, better than ever.” He said with a small smile. “Don’t worry, once my shift is over I’ll just go back to my room and cuddle my pillow until I fall asleep, it’s better than nothing.” He said with a nod. “No, I’ve tried tea, I just don’t really like it. And look at you, getting all lame, saying that you would miss me. I know that you would, but I don’t plan on getting fired anytime soon.” He said with a chuckle.

“But it will keep me from cracking you upside the head with a plunger and, honestly, I’m not in the mood to explain why they shouldn’t fire me when I do.” Rei shot Eli a tight lipped grin. “Now, if you would please take a breath and let me focus, I’d greatly appreciate it.” She gestured to the open textbook in front of her on the desk, highlighters scattered around her - the neon hues taking up more of the page than not. “Though I think this might be melting my brain more than the video games you’ve been playing.”
Elijah looked at Rei for a while and nodded slowly, smiling at the other girl. “Wait, what’s that?” He asked, as he looked over at the textbook. “I didn’t know you were studying, what’s all that about?” He asked as he got closer to take a look. “Well, that’s normal, studying usually melts everyone’s head, so I wouldn’t be surprised. But also all of the highlighting makes my head kind of hurt.”

“yes, eli, you are beautiful just the way you are, but a good eye drop would do the trick. who knew those awful clear eye commercials that ran when we were kids would come in handy today.” venice said pointedly, listening to the boy further only to end up shaking her head. “i don’t know how people like you do survive, though! need at least eight hours and a hot cup of coffee in the morning to keep up with it all.” she said, waving her hands around to generally signify the city and foot traffic around them. despite living in new york city, chicago moved at a similar pace which she wasn’t expecting. “i suppose telling a story is more entertaining than just beating a bunch of levels … can you tell i never really understood the appeal of video games?” she asked with a laugh, stepping to the side so she could rest her arms against the countertop beside them. “worried, well, sure, sort of? i was more so asking to see if i could get you to grab a bite to eat with me. it’s well past lunchtime and i’m starving.”
“I’ll make sure to get some eye drops then, I don’t want to walk around looking like I’m a zombie or something like that.” Elijah said with a small shrug. “I don’t know how I survive it either, honestly, I just sleep for a couple of hours and then I’m off to go. But I’ve been like this ever since I was a kid, honestly.” Elijah said with a nod. “Yes, it is pretty clear that you’ve never played a good video game, and trust me, there’s tons of great video games out there to play. But I can understand why it’s not for everyone. I just really love video games.” Elijah said with a nod. “Oh, of course, I can keep you company! I’m not that hungry, but I’ll stay with you.”

“Don’t get me wrong, love the taste of coffee and the smell but the fact that it matches my aesthetic is a benefit,” she explained. Carmen raised a brow. “Oh, yeah, I’ve heard of it. My favourite one is Dark Souls II, I used to play with my brother whenever he’d visit.”
“That makes sense, and that’s a valid reason to drink coffee. I mean, who am I to judge?” Elijah asked with a smile, nodding at Carmen. “Oh, I’m glad someone else knows the game. But you know, I don’t really like the second one, but I understand why most of the people like it. It’s different, for sure.”

“ I hear tea has more caffeine than coffee but i still see it as a sleepy drink, i don’t know though maybe you can try that” she offered with a shrug “and your eyes aren’t fried? i mean i’ve binged shows but that seems like a lot of screen time. “
“Why is everyone talking about tea lately? I don’t really like tea, so that’s why I don’t drink it, but thanks for the suggestion.” Elijah said with a smile, nodding slowly. “Oh, I’m used to play tons of video games, so my eyes are good, don’t worry!”
cityforshort:
“I can’t promise that I would be any good at first,” Felicity warned. “See, I’m really good at sports and anything that gets you moving around like dancing or yoga.” She shrugged. “I’m always doing something, so for me it would be new to sit around and play a game, you know?” She didn’t want him to think there was anything wrong with that, however. She was so happy to have made a new friend.
“I mean, that’s okay, it’s not like I’m the best video game player there is in the world, I just play for fun. And I learned, like everyone else, and you’ll learn too.” Elijah said with a small smile, nodding slowly at Felicity. “You’ll see, you’ll do great! Don’t even worry about it, I have tons of games we can play, I’ll even let you choose from the ones I have.”
cityforshort:
Felicity raised a brow at Elijah’s long explanation. “It’s OK, Elijah. I wasn’t serious about what I said.” She chuckled before her head fell to the side and she smiled at him. “What sorts of games do you play, then? Besides GTA.” Suddenly, Felicity’s eyes lit up. “I could be your partner. I could be a really good asset to a team.” Felicity likely wouldn’t be that helpful on a team, but she sure would like to try. She also liked watching people play games.
“Sorry, I didn’t mean to make it serious either, it’s just that I spent my whole life playing video games and I never turned crazy or something like that.” He said with a smile, nodding slowly. “Oh, there’s tons of games I play, but mostly Dark Souls, Bloodborne, open world games, they’re all pretty good! You’ll see what I have. And that’s good, I’m glad to have someone to play video games with.”
dammitdex:
Dexter went to open his mouth to respond but quickly closed it, considering the answer he would give. Part of him wanted to laugh and cheer the guy on, but he was mostly just concerned. “So you were up for almost a day and a half… to play video games? That’s… determined? Or dedicated. Maybe a bit insane.” The man shrugged, looking him over to make sure that he was really there and not just a ghost. “Well I’m glad you’re alive after that. Maybe next time you should try tea though, one for energy. You’d be less likely to have a literal heart attack.”
Elijah smiled a little and nodded. “Yes, it’s not that much if you think about it, and it’s not like I need that many of hours to sleep to survive, I’m used to not sleeping that much. And I would call it dedication, yes. Hey, I’m not insane, don’t say that...” He said with a sigh, shaking his head with. “And I don’t like tea, so I wouldn’t drink tea while I was playing video games. But I’m here and I survived, I’m sure I’ll stick around for much longer.” He said with a smile.
nicoxdelgado:
Nodding along with the the other male’s words, Nico couldn’t help the way that his eyes squinted just barely at the notion of already having listened to Christmas music. However, he blinked away the expression a moment later. Who was he really to tell people what they could or couldn’t be into? “Yeah, I think that one’s like, required or something.” He joked, chuckling. “Carol of the Bells is always a pretty dope one on piano, actually, I can’t even lie. So that’ll probably be one I pick for sure.”
“It wouldn’t be Christmas without it, let’s be honest. There’s tons of songs you can play. Of course you also need to play All I Want For Christmas is you, that song has Christmas written all over it and you can’t deny it.” Elijah said with a small nod, before he thought of something else. “I think you’re the one who has to decide, since you’re the one who’s going to play it on the piano over and over again.”
levviis:
while he stood there listening, levi concluded he didn’t really care but still he stood there silent. “ ah kay … “ he said in between the story. “ and did you try 5 hour energy ? “ levi asked again, just to keep it going but not really thinking about the reason. “ alright, but which video game ? if it was a stupid game, then it was a waste of not sleeping. “
Elijah smiled and shook his head. “5 hour energy? No, I didn’t, not really.” He said with a shrug. “Oh, I was just playing Dark Souls, I don’t know if you’ve ever played it, but it’s a really cool game. I would tell you the story but I don’t think I understand it myself? I mean, it’s a good story, once you get it, but right now I couldn’t tell you everything with detail. So, no, I didn’t waste my time.”
camilamonroe:
She couldn’t help but to laugh. “Awe, honey, you couldn’t handle my definition of fun.” Cam smiled, “Not like I could tell you, anyway. How old are you? Twelve?”
Elijah raised an eyebrow, shaking his head a little. “No, of course I’m not twelve... I’m twelve and a half, you should know that just by looking at me.” He said with a chuckle, shrugging.
cityforshort:
Felicity was intrigued. She furrowed her brow at him. “So are you supposed to run from the cops then?” She figured it was a game, after all. “Hm, wondering what that is teaching the youth of America,” she pondered. Felicity shrugged after a pause, “Oh well!” She smiled at him, “Can you show me your games sometime?”
“Yes, pretty much...” Elijah said with a small nod. “I don’t think video games like GTA teach anything to the youth of America, I think video games are supposed to be fun... Just because you’re killing people in a game, doesn’t mean that you’ll become a serial killer. But I guess most of the people like to blame video games since they don’t care enough about their children to make them talk about what they’re feeling or what they’re going through.” Elijah said with a small shrug, before nodding again. “Of course, I can show you all of my video games!”
cityforshort:
“I’ve never really played video games!” Felicity told him when there was a pause. “I played GTA once. But I accidentally hit someone on the sidewalk because I guess I’m a bad driver in games, too.” She waved her hand as if to shrug it off. “And then the police came and it was this whole big thing.”
“What do you mean you’ve never played video games? It’s awesome! And I’ve also played GTA, they’re pretty good games, actually. The open world and everything, makes it a great game. And it’s normal to hit someone on the sidewalk in those games, I mean, it’s a game about crime and shooting people, it’s not that surprising.” He said with a nod.
venicxmedina:
upon listening to the boy’s rambling, venice couldn’t help the bewildered expression against her face. “haven’t you ever heard of the importance of sleep? beauty sleep? you know, how we all stay looking for fresh and gorgeous. well, you and your bloodshot eyes could really use some.” she shared an empathetic grin with eli before crossing her arms over her chest. “how can a video game even keep you up for 32 hours? don’t you just, like, play a level and be done with it?” she had never been interested in video games much, even growing up she mostly stuck to fashion games, but of course she was aware of their popularity. still, how one could play for 32 hours was beyond her. “have you eaten anything?”
“I don’t think I have bloodshot eyes, do I? And I don’t think I need beauty sleep either, I’m already beautiful the way I am.” Elijah teased the other with a chuckle, shaking his head. “But I’m fine, I’m one of those people who doesn’t need that much sleep to actually survive.” Elijah said with a shrug. “And no, that’s not how all the video games work... Most video games nowadays tend to tell stories, rather than just focusing on the gameplay. It’s pretty awesome, I’ve played tons of amazing games!” He said with a smile. “Oh yes, I’ve eaten, don’t worry. Are you really that worried with me?”
