And everyone had thought video game life was better than real life...truth is, reality can be more surprising than the videogame world.

rogue starlight I will change the posting format after this to make it 'Leesha', kind of let you know when we are in game world and then in human world.  Company: No one at the moment
Thought: I can't wait to try out the game
Mood: Normal/Anticipation
Attire: Casual, Black Hoodie Jacket ≎≎≎≎≎≎≎≎ ==== ✹ ==== ≎≎≎≎≎≎≎≎ It had been a long day at school and so the door was opened by a tired and exhausted girl, slumped over as if thinking of passing out on the wooden floor. "hey...I am home." She meekly called out to what she would think her parents were there to greet her, but alas there was not. Frowning she had decided to put her backpack on the corner as her eyes stared down at a cardboard box, with a letter that signified where it came from. "OH MY GOD! IT CAME!" She smiled as she picked up the box and went to the kitchen, forgetting she was tired. Getting a knife she carved the box open until a Headset came in, she was excited as it would cover her eyes and ears to be totally enhanced in the MMO called LIFE. Weird name, but it would do. LIFE was a fantasy/apocalyptic game. It was based off of after some humans survived an apocalypse in which they were the only ones left, they landed on a different planet from the ship in which was all foreign to them, even the people which can be described as 'elves'. So in a way it was like World of Warcraft, but not. And that the players can either play humans who are the only survivors, or Elves wanting to defend their lands. "It's popular because of the gameplay and the options." She mumbled as she then decided to get started.
Sitting in the living room, she inserted the game into the videogame console as she then got her headset on with her hands on the controller. It made her smile as she had to go through the opening and then creating her character. She frowned trying to figure out if she should be human or not, so she went through each character creations to see what can be done. She liked the elf so she decided to play as that. In the game she was called Leesha the Cleric who is declared 'neutral' in the humans trying to settle into their planet with the futuristic technologies that they brought. She put in neutral because if not, she wouldn't be able to do the quests humans give her so there was that.
"Alright, seems good." Starting out in the outfit she was in, she had head bob up and down, left and right, finding it cool she can stare at the feet, legs, and belly of her character! She went down the steps now as she was going to do quests. Suddenly a lesson popped up to her eyes which said something about developing relationships with the NPC's. "Oooooh, and my actions determine an increase or decrease!...COOL!" She thought as her character went around to explore the Elven landscapes. ≎≎≎≎≎≎≎≎ ==== ✹ ==== ≎≎≎≎≎≎≎≎

 Connor Kennedy━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
The door to the empty apartment opened, as Connor finally got home after a long day. The young man had a box in his arms, picked up from the front desk, excitement on his face despite his exhaustion. Connor had been counting down the days until LIFE finally launched and he got his headset and copy of the game. There was one big reason he had gotten the game. Though he probably would've gotten it anyway, when he heard that Shilga was getting it, he got an idea and knew he just had to get it. Then he would finally get to talk to her...
Why did he wait until the game came out to talk to her? Well... Connor was a bit shy. Honestly, more than a bit. A lot more. But despite his social anxiety, he thrived in MMOs and was a brilliant hacker. And now, he was going to put his skills to use in finally getting to talk to his crush.
Connor rushed to his room, turning on his computer. He slipped the game in and began working on a program to hack into the game. After a bit of work, it was ready. The young man grabbed his headset, slipping it on.
He bypassed the character creation, his program putting him in the place of a random male NPC. Bringing up a menu and checking the character profile, Connor found that he was now a human colonist named Cyrus. His eyes widened, seeing his hands, robotic prosthetics. He looked down, seeing that he was wearing a long, dark jacket over a tank top undershirt, pants, and boots. He pulled up the sleeves, seeing that the prosthetics went up to his elbows, as far as he could see. He looked around, seeing that he was sitting in an alleyway the humans' settlement. He looked back down, going into the menu again and checking Cyrus' profile, trying to see if it gave a reason for his robot arms.

◯ ● ◯ ● ◯ ● ◯ ● ◯ ● ◯ ● ◯ ● ◯ ● ◯ ● ◯ ● ◯ Leesha: The Elven Cleric  OOC;; It did not take long for Leesha to finish the basic quests which came down to her being able to travel the world. She knew that the game was only popular because of the headset with microphone it needed to use; otherwise it could've been a boring game. She did hear they are thinking of adding gloves, like the oculus rift has, to add motion to it instead of controller. That would require a different update within itself, and mean the players have to stand up and move their feet up and down to move their character.
But she wasn't going to think about that.
For now she wanted to see the human base, which looked like a futuristic junkyard in a forest. Of course she knew she had to tread carefully because of her saying she was neutral. Anything could happen after all. Walking in she took note of all the NPC's which had a bar above them for health and relationship status...red was hate and blue was like. And she knew sometimes she can get quests from them if she increased the relationship with them. According to the quest log, she needed to find an NPC named Cyrus. So after wandering she had found him with robotic arms and sleek black hair. She then realized her voice can catch attention instead of clicking a button so she spoke: "Uuuuuuh. Hi! You're Cyrus right? I'm Leesha. Heard you might need some help." ◯ ● ◯ ● ◯ ● ◯ ● ◯ ● ◯ ● ◯ ● ◯ ● ◯ ● ◯ ● ◯

 Cyrus the Bionic Loner━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Connor... er... Cyrus was still staring at his arms, looking over the bio in his profile. Damn... This guy must have one of the angstiest backstories in the game... He thought as he read about Cyrus' life leading up to his current place in the colony. The young man could already see all of the LIFE fangirls fawning over the bionic male and his angsty sob story, like they did with other similar characters in other games, films, or shows.
Cyrus was pulled from his thoughts, hearing a very familiar voice coming from behind him. His dark eyes widened; it was Shilga! His heart began to race anxiously. He could feel his palms growing sweaty in the real world as he gripped his controller, knuckles turning white. She had found him... He was about to come face-to-face with his crush, and he would finally talk to her, hopefully without stumbling and stammering. He took deep, shaky breaths, trying to compose himself.
He slowly turned to look at his crush's character, trying to look cold and distant like he thought Cyrus would be without his hacking. His gaze fell upon the beautiful elf, and it was difficult for him to keep his composure and the brooding act up. He closed his eyes, quietly clearing his throat. He looked into Cyrus' code, searching for his script, so he could somewhat stick to it.
Opening his eyes, he glared at Leesha. "What are you doing here, elf?"

◯ ● ◯ ● ◯ ● ◯ ● ◯ ● ◯ ● ◯ ● ◯ ● ◯ ● ◯ ● ◯ Leesha: The Elven Cleric OOC;; Leesha didn't seem surprised that he would respond like that. Instead she stared at him for a couple of seconds before her eyes narrowed, and her arms crossed. Shilga had to sigh as she knew she better be careful on what she said to this NPC, although she did admit the character creation if Cyrus was interesting, she had to remember that it was an NPC...not a real person. [If only she knew]
"What am I doing here?" She asked that right back at Cyrus as she then shrugged. "Oh I don't know, heard you needed material that we elves only have access to..." Shilga knew she was going to regret that, but it might be because of being aware of it being an NPC so she seemed a bit too confident than what her true personality was. "But seriously, I know that right now...it's been a bit hard. So I thought I could lend a hand, it could help you and your fellow humans in a long run. Not all of us are out to eat your brains." She smirked slightly at the last sentence. "Sooo...I'll start over, I'm Leesha. Need any help?" ◯ ● ◯ ● ◯ ● ◯ ● ◯ ● ◯ ● ◯ ● ◯ ● ◯ ● ◯ ● ◯

Cyrus the Bionic Loner━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Cyrus stared at Leesha, waiting for a response, his heart still racing anxiously. He bit the inside of his cheek, hoping his rudeness wouldn't scare her off or something. He was slightly surprised by her sassy response, eyes widening a fraction. Wow... She's even more confident than I thought she was... He thought adoringly. Cyrus quickly shook the thought from his head, trying to keep up his act.
His eyes narrowed a bit as she spoke, trying to look suspicious of the elven maiden. He glanced at the script and code again. The humans' resources were running low and, like Leesha said, they were in need of material that only elves had access to. If Shilga had picked to be a human, Cyrus' quest would've sent her to infiltrate the nearby elven city. Mainly, Cyrus needed some of those materials for his own personal needs...
Cyrus gave a small nod as she decided to start over. "Alright, Leesha. So, you've heard that I need some elven materials? Alright, get them for me." The list of materials would show up in her quest log.

◯ ● ◯ ● ◯ ● ◯ ● ◯ ● ◯ ● ◯ ● ◯ ● ◯ ● ◯ ● ◯ Leesha: The Elven Cleric OOC;; She sighed at him as the quest log updated to what would be needed. He must be really fun... She mumbled, as she then twirled a hundred eighty degrees so she could go. "Normally, I wouldn't do anything unless someone told me please....but this is a quest...he is an NPC." She mumbled to herself as she ran off.
Going to what looked like a beginning area, she remembered the quest being one of those 'gets items dropped by monsters'. She then realized she regretted being a Cleric when she had to run around the whole area with her attacks being weak. "Why am I cleric again?!" Shilga scolded herself as she should've picked the warrior instead! They were an easy class after all. But eventually she got the items, her HP was at half but otherwise she'll make it. She returned to the man known as Cyrus as the Leesha character held what looked to be the quest items. "Alright Mr.Grumpypants, here are the items!" She said that in a tone reserved for best friends. "Just to satisfy my curiousity, why do you need these items?" ◯ ● ◯ ● ◯ ● ◯ ● ◯ ● ◯ ● ◯ ● ◯ ● ◯ ● ◯ ● ◯

Cyrus the Bionic Loner━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
He bit his lip, watching her turn and run off to complete the quest. The young man wanted to follow her, to help her fight the monsters. Cyrus had noticed that she apparently had picked to be a cleric, she needed someone with better attack stats to help her, protect her... But he couldn't. Not yet. He had to keep acting like an NPC, until the relationship built up enough that he could accompany her and be nicer, without her getting suspicious.
So, he just stayed put and waited for Leesha to return from her quest. Cyrus killed time by further researching his character and worked on some more hacks. He sat down in the alleyway, surprised but glad that no other players were coming to interact with him.
Hearing footsteps approaching, Cyrus lifted his gaze. He smiled inwardly, seeing that Leesha had returned. He put on the distant, brooding expression, and got to his feet. He quirked an eyebrow at her nickname. "It's Cyrus, not Mr. Grumpypants." Though, the tone of voice in which she said it made his heart flutter. He accepted the items, looking down as she asked what the items were for. Cyrus was checking the script and biography again, though it looked like he was just being broody and didn't really want to answer her question. He sighed, his gaze returning to Leesha. "These arms aren't gonna stay in good working order forever." He stated.

That was when she realized that he had robotic arms and that they could move. She mulled over it a bit before speaking: "How does it feel to have aritifical arms?" She thought but then realized that maybe it was a bad idea. "For-Forget it." She then went through the menu to be done with the quest as she got some experience for it. "Ok good, I got something."
Then suddenly Shilga heard something which was hard to decipher thanks to the headphones. Figuring it was her parents, she spoke one last time to the microphone. "Hey, unless you need anything else. I will be going...Cyrus right? Why does that remind me of Miley Cyrus?" She chuckled at her own stupid joke. "And maybe if you weren't so grumpy, people will not be afraid to talk to you." ◯ ● ◯ ● ◯ ● ◯ ● ◯ ● ◯ ● ◯ ● ◯ ● ◯ ● ◯ ● ◯

(( ooc;; I'm sorry I disappeared. I got in an accident and I'm just now getting well enough to come back. )) Cyrus the Bionic Loner━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
He bit his lip as she asked how having robotic prosthetics felt. Suddenly, Connor felt very awkward. Maybe it wasn't as bad to ask someone that if they were a videogame character... And she did retract the question pretty much right away. Since the real Cyrus was all brooding and moody, Connor figured that blowing up at her would be out of character. Not that he wanted to blow up at her anyway; he didn't want to scare her away after all the work it took to take over one of the NPCs and courage he had to conjure up, just to talk to her in disguise. So, he gave her a small frown and looked down at his hands.
He looked up as she began to speak again. He pretended not to know what she was talking about when she referred to Miley Cyrus, his brow furrowing. Cyrus rolled his eyes as she mentioned if he stopped being so grumpy, people wouldn't be so afraid to talk to him. Connor was sure the real Cyrus wouldn't really mind being left alone, especially by elves. He looked at the elven cleric, giving a small nod. "I'll keep that in mind, elf..."

Leesha could only chuckle at him as this man was pretty grumpy. "Do keep that in mind...it sucks to be alone...I mean...I am technically alone too." She then went through the menu as she was planning on logging out. "Well I will probably see you later, the land called home is calling me." Her character was soon vanishing into a light which meant the player was logging off.
The girl then took off the headset as she heard her parents calling her for something; possibly dinner or some sort of small errand. She had a smile on as she thoroughly enjoyed the game. She did wonder what the possibilities could be as she heard the human quarters were going to be the first quests for her, so she'll be there for awhile. But for now she will need to make sure real life does not bite her in the butt because of this game.
The day would only go through to the nighttime as she had to put the game away in the cabinet underneath the TV. She was excited to play the game. again after her classes tomorrow. She laid on the bed, holding onto a stuffed animal shaped like a wolf as she planned on falling asleep.
