He didn't normally play console games, or even older games, he tended toward the graphic rich games that he downloaded on his computer. Even then they were all free to play games, hence he still hadn't gotten to try Overwatch like some of his gaming friends had. He wasn't about to ask his mother, or her wife, for money to pay for a game or two...or more. This didn't mean he didn't watch people stream who played other games - he absolutely did. It was mostly due to curiosity and wondering at how much of a fan base some of those older games still had, and some really seemed to have quite the following.

Once in a while, when he was feeling up to it, he even streamed though he didn't show his face. He really had no reason to, he didn't like the idea of people knowing or seeing him to be honest, but he had friends who likes to stream and would on occasion ask him to stream for them for whatever reason - so he did.

It was due to his curiosity that he had private messaged one of these people who streamed older games and asked why the older games? Why the older systems? That had started a conversation which led to this...a meeting and he was nervous. Fiddling with the sleeves of his sweater in this little dive in a the wall place, glancing all about nervous and wishing he could shrink further into the corner of the booth he sat at.
