This is the third stupidest setup for a joke I've ever made on this blog.
Saying that Acheron got lost easily was quite possibly the biggest understatement of the century.
She tries to find her own way, she really does, but her fading memory and fantastic ability to lose her way makes getting stuck in the middle of the most random places easy.
And so, it's not common for her to text you if you can come find her.
Tonight was no exception. You two were supposed to get dinner, but she hadn't texted back in at least an hour. You knew better than to get worried, but there was still small part of you that sat restlessly. What if she got hurt?
As if she heard your thoughts, you felt your phone vibrate, the heart steadying itself when you saw it was your girlfriend texting you.
But...
A small sigh escaped your lips, but you knew better than to get angry. It's not like she did this on purpose.
Immediately you responded, typing away and praying that she wasn't hurt, but you knew little actually could.
Still, it never hurt to ask.
Well that checks out.
A little smile formed on your lips despite her current predicament. Not only was it not serious, but she wanted to make sure you two could have an enjoyable date on the town.
Thoughtful, as always. Before you could ask what specifically was wrong, you saw her texting back already.
...Huh? Where the heck was she?! Sure the restaurants in Penacony were exotic, but in the neon-lights of that crazy city, how could something so desolate be in business?
Not to mention if your food didn't stand out, then you'd sink for sure!
Shaking your head, you texted Acheron back.
Immediately, your heartrate began to spike. Did something happen?
(Y/N) "C-Calm down! Acheron is strong, she can handle herself!"
You rationalized. Her phone probably just ran out of battery, or something came up. Hopefully she could borrow someone else's phone to call you.
Before you could rise up from the couch, your phone vibrated again with a text from Acheron.
...
HUH?!
Meanwhile...
Acheron sighed as the banging on the doors intensified behind her.
She had walked into the office to have a quiet moment to continue texting you, but this was getting ridiculous.
A deep exhale left her nose as she lowered her phone, the steel door rattling with a violent clang.
BANG BANG BANG!
(Acheron) "I wish I had gotten lost at that peach restaurant instead..."
Acheron ignored the commotion behind her, focusing on texting you the final message before she decided to deal with it personally.
It wouldn't take long, really but damn was it annoying.
Plus, this planet would be better without that annoyingly catching tune the mascots were blasting a few minutes earlier before they became aggressive.
Whether that was because Acheron was disgusted by the food, or they got offended by her lack of interest, she couldn't say.

BONUS:
a/n: By the way, that Acheron image isn't photoshopped, only the window is. I had to download the entire map to throw Acheron in there for that picture.
As to what possessed me to make this...I don't even know anymore.
I wish there was an option ingame to toggle hairstyle of preference because letting AK-15's hair remain in a ponytail while in gear makes me bark like a dog:
Granted she makes me do that in general. Now also have the most terrifying image: her smiling
