[ He's much better than he used to be, that's for sure, but Luke will forever have the impulsive nature that keeps him from being the most well-behaved kid in town. ]

[ With his sword still embedded several inches into the poor Dragon Buster game, Luke is left staring down the barrel of a shotgun for about half a second before his reflexes kick in and he falls over onto his ass, face pale. Pleasedon'tshoothimpleasedon'tshoothimpleasedon'tshoothim...! ]

S-sorry..! I thought that.. someone was being attacked...

[ So will this one, hence the gun. \:|/ ]

[ MY GAME. YOU BASTARD. Luke just sighed and looked down at him before laughing. ] I guess I would think that, wouldn't I...? [ He smiled and slung his gun back over his shoulder before offering a hand to help him up. ] Sorry for scaring you. It's a reflex.

[ Guess they're very lucky that Prism didn't lose his head. Literally. 8|a ]

[ The pause between his last words and the other replica's seemed to last forever to Luke, and he couldn't help flinching in preparation for whatever retaliation his double would respond with. Except that he was.. laughing? ] Yeah... I didn't recognize the noise, so I kinda thought someone had gotten into a fight. [ Luke returns with a sheepish grin of his own and clasps Flame's hand, pulling himself to his feet. ] Nah, it's my fault. I should've looked before I leapt. Literally. You okay?

[ Flame's lucky he dodged that, too! 8|;;; ]

[ The laugh just got louder. He really was an idiot, huh...? ] The only thing I was fighting were dragons. [ Sheepish grin. ] I... still have that problem, too. I'm all right, thanks. Are you? [ At least this one isn't a creeper Luke. ]

[ Both dummies are lucky they didn't lose a limb or worse. 8|;; ]

[ It was nice to know that even if they weren't the same, other hims seemed to be as easy-going and understanding. Luke relaxed once he was upright and nodded, taking a second look at the game. ] Guess we're all kinda like that. 'm fine, other than being a bit shaken. It's not often I come across someone with a gun. [ But creepers are fun! ]

[ Seriously. 8|;; ]

[ Hey, you had to laugh at yourself, right? ] Yeah... Guess so. [ Sheepish laugh. ] I needed it where I came from...

[ He looked around at the arcade. Hey, there were other machines, too! Awesome! ... Grin. ] How about we play a game? I bet I'll kick your ass.

[ Their tombstones would've read "HERE LIES DUMB AND DUMBER. DIED DUE TO STUPIDITY." ]

'Where you came from'? You're not from Auldrant? Are you from that Earth place?

[ S-so many questions. He really needs to stop that. He follows Flame's gaze around the strange room, blinking at the odd machines. They kinda looked like... ] Huh? No way! I can totally beat you!

[ And if Asch was there: DUMB, DUMBER, AND DUMBEST. ]

[ Ugh, so many questions. 8|;;; ] I was from Auldrant originally. But on Filgaia, everyone there uses ARMs -- guns. I'd have no chance with my sword...

Dream on! [ And he'll be running over to a fighting game. This one looked fun! >8D ]

[ LMAO! I actually played Oregon Trail using Abyss names once... ]

[ S-sorry! He's naturally curious about everything! ;; And the mention of a world he's never heard of piques Luke's curiosity. ] Wow, you mean swords and spears aren't the main weapons? That's pretty hard to imagine.

[ He's so going to get his ass kicked, isn't he? :|;; Trailing along after his double while he takes in the multitude of flashing lights. ] So what're we going to play?

[ ... I miss that game. ]

Yeah, it was pretty shocking. [ Especially when you were suddenly being shot at. ] I had to do what I could to survive.

[ Yup! Maybe. Flame's not too up on gaming. ] Looks like some kind of fighting game. [ He pointed to the two people fighting in a demo. ]

[ 8'D ]

[ Have a concerned look with a twinge of sadness, bro. Even though he thinks you're not from Auldrant, it doesn't sound like you've had an easy time and that's just so... unfair. Couldn't he catch a break somewhere out there? ] You must've done a good job to have gotten that quick!

[ Considering this derp lost walked into a hole? IDK. But he still beams at the notion of learning to play a fighting game and runs up to poke at the buttons. ] Alright! There's no way I can lose at a game like that! [ Fabre logic fail. ]

[ ... Oh my god, I love you. ]

[ Nope. Never. Flame just gave him a reassuring smile in return. ] Yeah, I picked it up pretty quickly. I could show you later if you want. [ Bright smile. ]

[ ... Luke's logic amazed everyone. ] I won't lose, either! This'll be easy. [ GRIN. ]

[ Because I am ~awesome~ ]

[ Story of their whole lives, I tell you. Also, you're totally like his big brother now, Flame. If Prism had a tail, it would be wagging a mile a minute. ] Really? That'd be awesome!

--hey! Don't take me lightly just because I made a little mistake! [ Takes his place in front of the machine. ...only to realize a slight problem. ]

...how d'you make it go?

[ ... Uh huh. ]

[ Wow, that was fast. His family just expanded like whoa. ] Though I bet you couldn't handle Rudia even if you tried. [ Grin. If anything, he knew how to rile himself up. ]

[ ... Huh. Flame never exactly thought of that, either. He was just punching buttons, honestly. ] I... dunno. Is it this thing here...? [ He pushed on the stick and pressed a couple of the attack buttons, of course attacking in the wrong direction, opposite of Prism's character. Derp. ]

[ He didn't quite puff up his cheeks at the jab, but it was damn close. ] Of course I couldn't! I've never even held a gun before. Doesn't mean I wouldn't be as good as you, with practice!

[ Whoops lol. Prism watched his duplicate move one of the characters around on the screen, then took the other stick in hand and wiggled it, making his character double jump. Whoa, that was cool! ] Looks like it! Maybe we should figure out what does what first.

[ Luke grinned at Prism. ] We'll see. [ He's just teasing, and nudged him with his elbow. ]

[ He tapped the buttons and managed to land a special attack on Prism's character, knocking off 1/3 of his HP. ... AWESOME. ] ... How did I do that again? [ Tap. Taptaptap. ... Now you're facing the wrong way again, Luke. 8|;;; ]

[ Not that he wanted to use one on a regular basis anyway. He'd take his sword -or hell, even a spear- any day of the week. Knowing his luck with projectile weapons, he'd end up shooting all his allies in the butt... ] Sure, sure.

[ He returned the nudge with a bump of his own, accidentally making his character bounce off the wall, much to his excitement. Man, maybe he could try that for real! ] ...not like that. [ SNICKER. ...whoops, he just walked right into that hit. Typical. ]

[ Jade would gladly offer his spear to him. ~~In the gut, that is.~~ ]

[ But in any case, he watched Prism's character launch himself off the wall. ... We're going for Plan B: mash every button. And while his character is busy spazzing out with kicks and punches and the occasional grapple or special move, Luke's still trying to figure out what the controls do. ... Hey, is that a move list next to the buttons? Point. ] Look. I think this tells you what to push to get different mov--WHAT THE HELL?! [ How did he just take off over half his HP while he wasn't looking?! ]

... You're so dead!

[ ~~S-SOB. WHY SO MEAN, JADE?!~~ ]

[ HEY! That's not fair! Luke wants his character to grapple too! Cue Prism pressing as many buttons as he can at once. It's amazing they both hadn't resorted to that strategy earlier, but now that they have, the frantic sound of buttons clacking almost drowns out the sounds from the game itself. --oh! A move list? ] Huh? Really? That's pretty cool... HAHA! Nailed ya good that time! [ Not that he knows what combination he just used, but who cares. HE'S WINNING NOW!! ]

Bring it on!

[ ~~Like you need to ask? EVIL FONIST DOIJE.~~ ]

[ It's totally fair! ... Yeah, it's pretty amazing all right. I bet if anyone else was here, they would have facepalmed. And while Prism is looking at the move list, Flame's going to go in for the kill and beat the snot out of Prism's character. Ooh, it seems Luke's picked up how to distract opponents. ]

Gee, you're not going to win like this. [ TAPTAPTAPTAPTAPTAPMASHMASHMASH. ]

[ ~~GAAAH! Annoying creepy bastard colonel!~~ ]

[ Is not! Though they could provide endless hours of entertainment for anyone foolish enough to stop by and watch their derpery. aksldfj HE SEES WHAT YOU'RE DOING THERE, YOU JERK! Distractions are Prism's worst enemy. ]

Wha-- hey, that's cheating! [ BUTTON BUTTON STICK STICK STICK. Now that he knows how to do the spiffy grapple move, he's going to try it out before his character gets offed. Hopefully. TAKE THAAAAAAT! ]

[ Luke + Luke = SUPERDERP and entertainment. Flame just grinned and kept right on beating him until... GASP. WHAT THE HELL. ]

NO! [ And as the game declares Prism the winner, Flame just kicked the machine in retaliation, wings flap-flapping in rage. ] That wasn't fair at all!

[ FUMEFUMEFUME. ... Pout. Folds arms. ] Fine. Good game... uh, me.

[ Instead of the Bobsy Twins, we've got the Derpsy Twins here. Whatever just happened flew over Prism's head, but he caught the important part: ]

Yeah! I WON! [ So ecstatic that he managed to pull that out his ass, he jumps up and down, whooping and hollering for all to hear in a ten-mile radius. ]

Heheh... It was just luck, you know. I don't get how I beat you. [ Offers Flame a handshake, since a hug would be weird. ] Thanks. You did great too.

[ Derpsy! Flame's just going to sit there and fume at his loss. Ow, his pride. ]

[ But he's over it rather quickly. It WAS just a game, and neither of them really knew how to play. He shook Prism's hand. ... Yeah, a hug would be a little awkward. ] I'll beat you next time, though! [ Lopsided grin. ] So, c'mon. I was going to show you Rudia. [ And before Prism can fully enjoy his victolly, Flame's already at the door and gesturing for him to follow. Wanna shoot something for real, Prism? B) ]

[ Pride? What pride? There is no pride whatsoever in losing to yourself! ]

[ And they had fun, right? That's all that really mattered in the end! ] Not if I keep practicing, you won't! [ Friendly video game rivalry is a-go! Right out the window once Prism remembers the spiffy-looking firearm that had been pointed at his skull. It was scary from that end, but so freaking. cool. from over here. Right behind you, Flame, with all the energy and enthusiasm of chihuahua puppy on soda! ]

You bet!
