unbested | crau2 pcs: sheila

You open the door and find yourself in an old-fashioned looking arcade, with a faded carpet that was once probably very colorful. There are several cabinets with video games such as Mortal Wombat, Road Brawler, and Sirtet, among others. Among the game cabinets are also pinball machines, janky-ass DDR machines that only work half the time, and one of those FPS games with a real attached gun, except one of the guns is missing. Your attention is drawn to one of the fighting games, and you suddenly feel compelled to play it. The character you pick looks strangely like you. Every blow that is landed on your character, you feel on yourself. Once the round is over, you find yourself back in the hallway, disoriented. You sport no bruises, but you are sore in the areas where your character was hit.

[ hey after all those shitty rooms this one actually looks pretty fun?! what's road brawler, does he get a cool biker outfit... ]

[ Okay, well, Sebastian is kind of ready to just get out of there when the trial's over, but Sheila was nice, so... he can thank her for that quick before he runs away. ]

Hey. Um... thanks. For listening to me back there.

[Somewhere in the void, Sheila waves Sebastian over when she sees him.]

Hey... So, I heard you all had to watch my involuntary big screen debut. Are you okay?

[ yay this party is mostly fun and sebastian is definitely not teetering even more precariously than usual on the edge of an emotional disaster precipice thanks to this alcohol!! ]

Do you think they're gonna do something like this every week now?

[ welp it is locking ourselves in our room and hating ourselves hours over here... but if there's a knock on the door he'll warily answer. ]

[ well, this sure sucks. he's sure sheila's going to have lots of visitors, but he can't not come see her. so, here he is, even if it's only for a little bit. ]

Hey.

[ he raises a hand in a halfhearted wave. ]

...It must have been really hard for you, being forced to do something like that.

[ sebastian will be in his room for a while in between the cyoa returns and curfew, so sheila can find him there.

he still looks kind of relieved every time he sees her alive, even now in spite of everything else. ]

Ah... Hey. Good to see you.
