mystery science theater: drift fleet edition

Who: Kirito and whoever!
Broadcast: Yes!
Action: on the Iskaulit
When: 11/20


[The video loads to show Kirito only, waving awkwardly at the camera.]

Okay, confession- I'm not great with other languages. Whatever's going on with the planet is a total write-off for me, so I've been working on something else in the meantime. Finally finished it, so...

[He turns the camera around, revealing an Iskaulit room remodeled to look like a theater- the walls painted dark, speakers rigged around a fabric screen that spans the entire far wall, and the rest of the floor is furnished with identical plush-and-wood chairs. At the back there is a projector, with a cord running up under the camera of the comm.]

Movie theater, as requested. The projector can connect directly to any communicator, and will automatically access whatever's on the network. I'm working on getting a wireless system going, but one thing at a time.

And I guess the interdimensional viewers thought we were running dry on content and took pity on us, so this was conveniently timed.

[He rolls the camera back around to reveal a sponsor drop box, which contains a few piles of smaller boxes, each decorated with a cover worthy of making some kind of worst Sci-Fi original movie list. They're all parodies, and most of them look terrible. There's even some video games.]

"Tornadoe"... "Og the Vaguely Imposing"... "Mule Lord"...
yeah, I can't vouch for the quality, but if you're bored of what we've already got and the thought of watching Spirits Within one more time makes you wanna punch a hole in the wall, it's. Well. Better than nothing?

Anyway, it's open to the public if you want to use it!


(( feel free to use this as a theater mingle if anyone wants to come and watch movies! Kirito will be around for any and all technical difficulties, and will of course respond to network comments. he may bother visitors, or he may not. go wild! ))
stefanged: (excuse you)

[Oh, Stefan's watching this alright. It's the most entertaining thing he's seen all week, and he has freshly-buttered popcorn to keep him preoccupied. He knows he'll be here a while - or at least, until it's time for the next prayer.]

So... maybe it's just me, but I don't think you're supposed to fall into the abyss.
stefanged: (real talk buddy)

[personal profile] stefanged 2016-11-21 05:53 am (UTC)(link)
It's very stupid. But hey, 44th time's the charm, and maybe you could try stepping back this time. Like, in-the-game stepping back right before it jumps.

[Kirito's usually killed everything in the fungus monster's path, and it seems like a shot. Of course, Stefan isn't an expert - he's far from it. The only Mario he knows is Mario Kart.]

stefanged: (hold on a sec)

[personal profile] stefanged 2016-11-21 05:59 am (UTC)(link)
[ . . . ]

How? That shouldn't even be possible.
stefanged: (that is a fair point)

[personal profile] stefanged 2016-11-21 06:20 am (UTC)(link)
Also a cheater. Doesn't that, like, break a dozen rules of game design?

[He offers up his bowl of popcorn as a token of apology. Sorry, bro.]
stefanged: (oh really now?)

[personal profile] stefanged 2016-11-22 12:58 am (UTC)(link)
So as annoying as those blocks are, they're technically solid? Huh.

[He tilts his head thoughtfully.]

Did they send any other video games? We could always come back to this one later.
stefanged: (crossed arms)

[personal profile] stefanged 2016-11-27 02:30 am (UTC)(link)
It's not giving up, it's... taking a break and regrouping before you attack again.

[AKA a hasty retreat!! Because man, this unofficial LP is hurting him a little inside.]

I didn't survive this long without knowing my limitations.
stefanged: (genuine smile)

[personal profile] stefanged 2016-11-30 05:45 am (UTC)(link)
[Sometimes, Stefan forgets how hell-ish That Game was, and that statement only reinforces how different their worlds are. He's quiet for a couple of seconds, fiddling with the kernels of popcorn in his hand...]

Fair enough. Let's beat the crap outta this game.
stefanged: (Default)

[personal profile] stefanged 2016-12-01 05:24 am (UTC)(link)
Kind of? I saw a game about vampires, but honestly - I wanna get my hands on Katamari again.

[Those rolls were therapeutic! He loved beating his time record, and he loved dueling against the eccentric cousins and - it was a game that spoke to his weird little soul.]

Don't let me get in the way of your victory.
stefanged: (oh really now?)

[personal profile] stefanged 2016-12-05 12:03 am (UTC)(link)
Possibly? I didn't get a chance to look too deeply.

[He'll set his popcorn aside to look through the pile now. There's a ton of cheap knockoffs: Mammal Football World, Last Legend, the Bloodsucker Journals, and Wonderful End of the Universe.

It's the last one that gives Stefan pause as he holds it up.]


Yes? No? Let's wait until you get good?
stefanged: (that would do it)

[personal profile] stefanged 2016-12-06 05:32 am (UTC)(link)
[That was. An Experience.]

Nuh-uh. [Stefan's quick to press a finger to his lips.] You got way further than I would've, and honestly? I wouldn't put it past Atroma to beef up the AI.

It's not you, it's this super crappy game.

[But he'll set his popcorn aside, for real, to switch out games. "Wonderful End of the Universe" lacks all the charm and cuteness of the original Katamari by far. The main character's a marionette? The palette AND the soundtrack are clear, false imitators...

and Stefan's already beating the time limit.

Either his muscle memory's amazing, or he spent way too much quality time with the original.]
stefanged: (kinda hopeful)

[personal profile] stefanged 2016-12-08 07:30 pm (UTC)(link)
Thanks. [He's concentrating pretty hard - his tongue's sticking out and everything! For once, he doesn't take his eyes off the screen.] Reaching the amount within the time limit's pretty easy, but reaching double the amount?

Now that's an actual challenge.
stefanged: (making faces)

[personal profile] stefanged 2016-12-10 09:16 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't know. [beat] I don't want to know.

[Guessing from his high scores, he must've wasted hundreds of hours - Stefan's no video game natural. He usually avoids them like the plague, and yet, Katamari pinged him with its strange, off-beat nature.]

Clay and Allen introduced it to me, back when we did double dates on the Marsiva... and I guess one thing led to another.
stefanged: (kinda hopeful)

[personal profile] stefanged 2016-12-11 10:51 pm (UTC)(link)
Back when Alex was around, yeah. [Stefan nods, with a smile that finally reaches his eyes. He misses her, but it's also been a long time. He can talk about her without... well, delving into said sore spots.] She and Clay were into the weirdest things, and Allen and I were usually dragged along for the ride.

I haven't been on one in a while, mostly on account of... you know, but they were fun.

[He sure didn't reach double the score, but he got pretty close. Muscle memory can't account for everything in this knock-off.]
