"Steven! Everyone could hear you with that!"

"Mhmm, I know, Ari."

"Nobody needs to know what we do off game!"

"Well, they clearly can't see what you're doing much in game either."

"I'm going to kill you."

"Then it'd be a far cry better than how you're performing on the team."

"That's it! Guys, Steven has to log off... now!"

"Hehehe, I can't wait to see what you do to me."

And that was the last anyone had heard of Steven... at least until the next morning.

A fun, silly idea where after the war is over, Steven and Ari unexpectedly pair up - a shock to everyone, most assuredly to Ari herself. Steven, having been an avid gamer back when he was still living in Zabokar, was excited to have video games reintroduced into both his life and into the lives of those who had never experienced them. Ari was one such person who never had the opportunity to enjoy these sorts of recreational activities and he was her guided paw in exploring this new realm of digital devastation and chaos. It was a special way of bonding that I'm sure benefited Steven's emotional well being more so than Ari's.
