Ahh, console video games (or vidcons as I call them). the ultimate medium of expression, able to convey any emotion ranging from hatred to love, loyalty to fear, all in front of our eyes. Ah, and with lovingly crafted art, music, and the ability to control the action, vidcons are the ultimate combination of the high arts. While I tend to play the stoic, I will be the first to admit that vidcons haven driven me to cry, to scream and shout, to feel actual hate; such is the power of this force beyond our wildest reckoning. And here I am, before you, to temp your tongues with the taint of such a tantalizing topic.
And the Japanese, the true geniuses behind the world of video games. Pah, I throw my scorn upon such incompetents of the West who would mock the true art of the Japanese with 'games' such as Baldur's Gate and Madden. Perhaps it is that the West is not as intelligent as the East, but this is a matter for another day. Japan has given us such masterpieces as the Final Fantasy series, Star Ocean, Wild Arms, and of course, Arc the Lad. Yes, some of the finest vidcons in the world were created by Japanese. I come to you today to ask you in all earnesty, what is your favorite vidcon? I will reveal mine after the grand debate has illustriously begun, but not before the first poster falls victim to my plot of discussion.
In other words, this is a thread on an imaginary forum our avatars frequent. The topic can fluctuate, and its mostly just general discussion.

Okay, so... I'm at home right now. And Acht just fell asleep. Like, they just... laid down on our bed and went to sleep. Didn't even say anything.
...So I'm taking this chance to talk about them behind their back! Give me a topic and I'll say something about them! (Oh, by the way, they're non-binary, so please refer to them with they/them pronouns!)
Shoot your shot!
Think we're ready for that next floor, Eight.

I'm so fucking bored... Is there any wine-drinkers in this forum...?
N'''ICE''' to meet you! Uhhh, I should never make puns like that again...
Just Another Acht Fan
Sorry, never really liked the taste of wine. I think Acht does, though? They're asleep right now, though, so I'll have to ask when they wake up.

Anyone like bubble baths then, which is my second favorite thing to wine?

How do you think Acht is gonna react when they find out?
Also, enby gang!
…do you know who that is? Cause that seems like a bold assertion to me.

Yeah but two things: Firstly we have dealt with more powerful beings albeit rarely and secondly, how can he get to where I am? [1] Also What is Acht’s favorite food?

[1] Tope was my lover, but I drove him away with my pride. I’ve managed to learn from my mistakes and to know that there is no monster greater than pride. We’ve reconciled, he’s even getting married. I’m grateful for the love we’ve shared, but I’m thankful to walk my own path.

Glad to hear you lot patched things up.

[1] Ooh, I can't answer with 100% certainty, but I'm pretty sure it's the Pescatariat Royal from the Crab-N-Go stand from the lobby! It's like a preeeetty nutritional dish, got some fish in it, some greens, overall pretty nutritional! Though, I can't really blame them for liking it, literally anything in the Crab-N-Go stand is suuuper delicious!
Edit: ...Uhhh. I think I took a bit too long to answer that question. I do hope you're doing okay, mister. Or miss. I'm not sure. But please, stay safe.

[1] Told you. Doesn't matter whether or not they're in another universe and unable to hurt you, making assertions like these from the get-go is just uncalled for.
I know I'm guilty of similar assertions myself, but still.

It's in the Crab-N-Go stand by the lobby. You can access it from Splatsville, or the Plaza, or the Square... but I'm noooot sure you can access it from a different universe. Sorry!
Edit: Was a bit too slow to post again!

I’m shocked at you Luea making those types of assertions given your past of playing with fire so to speak. Oh well we can’t win them all. What shiny and moldy stuff did you collect?

Oh, that kind of collection. Good to know! I thought I would need to start locking my apartment down 😅.
...Kirby? You mean the pink puffball? Oh, I love that little guy! Captain 3 told me that she met her while she was hanging around in Smash!

Garbage! Delicious, wondrous, garbage! Little jewels, watches, cheese, food, money, shoes, the list does go on.
Oh, you can do that if you want to. I may sneak in and steal those things on your head.
