day 14, fiddlesticks ; video from sleeper 6

[blitzcheer]

Hey everyone, how you doin'? I'm Tidus. Been here around since the last stop, and I know there's gonna be another one soon, but I've been itching to ask: What did you do for fun in your worlds?

Back home, the biggest entertainment was Blitzball! Two teams goin' up against each other underwater, giving it all they've got to score the ball in the other team's goal! [ He's grinning, excited even to share that. ] That's a simple way of putting it since I can't start showing everyone how to play, and I wanna hear about your guys' fun.

So? What did you do? It doesn't have to be just sport. Did you have videogames? Arcades? Did you have fighting competitions? Draw? What do you do now? I wanna hear what people are into!

And hey, if you ever want a partner for one of the ball games they have here, hit me up! I wanna try as many as I can. Can't do it on my own though!

My two top fun things back in my world were volleyball and the arcade. Going there was so fun even if one would get strange looks because I was a girl.

I can't help it that I was a girl who liked video games, especially one as beautiful as myself.

[blitzcheer]

[ That gets a small laugh out of Tidus. ]

Hey, girls just wanna have fun too! Everyone played 'em back in Zanarkand -- where I'm from!

But volleyball, I remember seeing that one in the gym. Which one is it? I know which is soccer and tennis...

[ Help him remember? ]

[loveandduty]

That's pretty cool. I don't get why some boys where I was from didn't understand that girls might enjoy video games too.

[She could at least recall one incident with a guy, but she figured to not go into detail about that one.]

It's the game where the net is involved. At least the net that is high in the air rather than close to the ground like tennis is.

[blitzcheer]

Hmmm...

...

--oh yeah! [ Aha! ] You jump and knock it back and forth with your hand, right? You're not meant to let it hit the ground! That the one?

[loveandduty]

That is correct. You can spike too as that's usually the best way to get it to hit the ground.

But you can only do those at the right time.

[blitzcheer]

I'll take another look at it! How many people do you need to play? Is two enough?

[loveandduty]

For volleyball it's 6 people on each team usually.

[blitzcheer]

Just like a blitz game. [ Ah, well-! ] Wonder how many people would be up to learning it?

[loveandduty]

I guess next time I can ask.

[blitzcheer]

Ohh yeah, you're the girl who likes starting up conversations, huh? [ Aha. ]

Helped anyone with their love lives yet?

[loveandduty]

That is correct as for helping, I have not a clue yet. I have helped someone but I don't know how that went yet.

[blitzcheer]

You can't rush love! Fingers crossed though, huh?

And how 'bout your love life? Never did hear how many of the passengers you were eyeing up.

[loveandduty]

It's a small train, so I will find out eventually, but yeah. it takes time for some.

As for me, I honestly don't know if I even have my eye on anyway. I mean there are a lot of handsome people, though.

[blitzcheer]

Same thing, right? Got a top five of Most Handsome?

[ He's just teasing, really. ]

[loveandduty]

Not right now. But I am slowly figuring out my top five.
