Kai had suggested a walk in one of the nearby parks earlier in the day, wanting to spend some time outside in the cooler weather with one of his favorite people. Thankfully Xi-wang agreed so here they were walking along the pathway, the breeze just on the chilly side of things as leaves fell around them every so often. Occasionally seeing leave piles made it tempting to jump right into them but for now he was behaving and walking hand in hand with one of his boyfriends. "Other then those weird sounds the other day, this holiday season hasn't been too bad." He said after a while. giving a small smile up to the taller man. "It absolutely could have been much worse." Which was true and he knew he really shouldn't jinx them in case the universe heard them and sent something their way just to prove him wrong. If his eyes darted around suspiciously for a moment to make sure nothing like that did happen, well he was sure Xi-wang would understand, having dealt with the more magical side of the city for much longer then he had. Was it really superstition when the city itself always had something happening to it?
He shook those thoughts out of his head and turned his attention back to the other man. "So have you been playing or wanting to play any new games lately?" He asked, changing the subject to something less universe daring. "I saw that Overwatch game went free-to-play and had a lot of issues such as server crashes, ddos attacks, and such." There had been a few articles he had seen where fans had been outraged by the shop prices of the cosmetics as well. It wasn't a game he personally played, but he did know about it as one of his co-workers had told him about it and even joked about him cosplaying as one of the characters since they shared a last name even though they were from different nationalities. "Oh, the new Pokemon generation is coming out next month right?" He asked as the thought of different games came to mind.
However any thought on video games vanished when he felt his right foot kick something. Looking down he found a wooden dice at his feet, just laying their innocently on the ground. "Guess someone lost their dice." He said as he bent down and picked the playing piece up, only partially noticing that there seemed to be a pull to it. As soon as it met his hand the world around them went dark and out of instinct Kai powered up into Panacea as he looked around. "What in the world?!" There didn't seem to be anything of note with them besides the darkness spreading around them, a pathway with different markings on each square, and a wooden platform in the distance at then end of it. "Does this sound like anything you've heard about?" He asked, turning to look at Xi-wang after his examinations. He knew he shouldn't have challenged the universe earlier.

The n** in the air was nice, actually it was fantastic in his opinion, as it not only gave him a reason to snuggle up with blankets more often than usual but it also lead to cuddles with his boyfriends and hand in hand walks like now. Dressed in a thick, and full, sweater Xi-Wang had a scarf wrapped round his neck and was thus nice and toasty warm as he and Kai walked through the park. He was surprised the leaf piles were already so high, not that he didn't like the sight which they made, all the colorful leaves were a delight and had him smiling.
"Mmm, I was thinking of Overwatch but I've heard hte same things. You know I like to late ngiht game." When it was nice and silent out, peaceful, he liked to curl up and play his games. it had, as a child, been a way to escape from his motehr and stepmom and the while life he'd been stuck with. It was people he could talk to, some being older, and they could give advice or just make him feel better. he could get lost in other things and forget about his home life for a little while. It had helped him so much. He wouldn't say it had saved him but it had certainly helped him get through things in a much better posistion than he could have been in, mentally and emotionally speaking anyway.
"I think I'll try overwatch. The last pokemon game I played was such a grind...it tookk the fun out of it when I keep running through the grass to have battles so I can try and level up more...it takes forever." And while he liked to game he didn't like to grind to the point he was nearly asleep from boredom. "Maybe I'll give the new pomemon game a chance...but I don't know." He could hope it wasn't such a grind honestly. Maybe he'd just find one of those super old blue or red games, and get a refurbished gameboy color, and play that. he'd never played the original and he sort of liked the idea.
He too had grabbed one of two dice found on the ground, it had a match which Kai had obviously not seen, and he'd been going to point it out to him when he'd been sucked into some new place. Also powering up Kiuchi shook his head slowly. "Nothing I've seen before...I don't like it though. I don't think it's mirrorspace." So it was something else and didn't like it, though if this was mirrorspace he wasn't sure if it would be much better.
"We're gonna have to play...I think."
