— We’ve got a new neighbour! And he’s a hottie.
— What? Where?
— Look outside—they’re unloading his stuff from the truck. See the blond guy in the red hoodie?
— Yeah… sort of. Too far for me to see properly. He looks cute, though. Tall, pumped, and cut. Why’s he yelling?
— The movers are refusing to haul his safe.
— I understand them. That thing looks insanely heavy. Oh god, he’s not going to manhandle that himself, is he?
— He is! Damn, if only I could turn on god mode and make him ditch that stupid red hoodie and carry it wearing just a T-shirt!
— Dream on… Ooooh! Damn, Gwen! Maybe you should be our mage?
— That body. Oh gosh, just look at those muscles…
— I can’t really see from here, but I’ll take your word for it.
— Nice try, Merls. Blonds are your weak spot. I can hear you’re about to start drooling.
— Like you aren’t! Want to go say hi?
— Hell yes, I’d already be heading downstairs to check if he’s really that strong—but he’s gay.
— And how do you know that, Gwen?
— All the hot guys I like usually turn out to be gay…
— Thanks for the compliment.
— Not you, you scrawny idiot.
— Hey, I think Lance would disagree!
— Don’t even mention that pathetic worm! He spent the entire evening yesterday chatting with his gym-bro Percy. We got stomped in FF by some Croatian teenagers.
— It happens. Damn—he’s putting that red thing back on.
— Yes, and we need to log in. Elyan’s yelling in my DMs—the orcs are steamrolling him and Gwaine at the fortress! They’ll get wrecked without us!
— What kind of idiot starts a quest for a magical sword without a mage and an archer?
— Same as always! Our dumb “Knights of the Round Table” rushing in before the whole party’s assembled!
