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! ))

So... maybe it's just me, but I don't think you're supposed to fall into the abyss.
no subject
You think!? It's that stupid fungus monster that keeps jumping right where I need to be! Dodging it kills me every time!
[RESETTING. AGAIN. You will not defeat him, game.]
no subject
[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.]
no subject
He throws his hands up in the air.]
What. The. Hell.
no subject
How? That shouldn't even be possible.
no subject
[And he played a game that killed four thousand people. He knows monster devs.]
no subject
[He offers up his bowl of popcorn as a token of apology. Sorry, bro.]
no subject
[Kirito accepts a handful of popcorn, stuffing it in his face and chewing aggressively before continuing.]
First rule of game design is that there are no real rules. Every one's different, and shaking things up is what keeps the industry fresh.
no subject
[He tilts his head thoughtfully.]
Did they send any other video games? We could always come back to this one later.
no subject
[Obviously the only acceptable solution is to die a hundred more times and Get Good.]
no subject
[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.
no subject
[It's said without thinking about it, the closest he gets to talking about That Game without it being prodded out of him. Congrats, Stefan, you are trusted.]
no subject
Fair enough. Let's beat the crap outta this game.
no subject
[One more death, and Kirito fishes a sucker out of his pocket and pops it into his mouth. He needs rage fuel, and potentially something to break his teeth on when he dies another hundred times.]
Is there anything in the drop that interests you? I don't wanna hog the projector if you want to do something else.
no subject
[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.
no subject
[Though the vampire one sounds interesting... if only to see if it makes Stefan squirm. In the non-emotionally-damaged way, of course.]
no subject
[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?
no subject
Six more times.
At the exact same spot.
One more death, and he finally sighs loudly and flops backwards, staring up at the ceiling, the tinny death music cheerfully looping in the background.]
...Okay, yeah, maybe I need a break. I'm starting to develop an existential crisis, here.
[MAYBE HE'S NOT SO GOOD AT VIDEO GAMES?? He needs to be good at video games. What is the purpose of his existence if he is not good at video games?]
no subject
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.]
no subject
Hey, you're pretty good at this one.
no subject
Now that's an actual challenge.
no subject
[Katamari was never really his thing - too weird, too story-weak to satisfy him - but he can appreciate the racing aspect of it, even if you're just racing a clock. He's pretty content to relax and popcorn for a while.]
Just how many hours did you plug into that game?
no subject
[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.
no subject
[Ten thousand hours plugged into an MMO, you really can't beat that! ...Okay, so it was forced, but he'd probably have racked up that amount eventually anyway.]
You did double dates?
[With Alex, he's assuming, though he doesn't ask. Bringing up the missing loved one can be sort of a sore spot unless prompted, he assumes. He's like that with Asuna at times.]
no subject
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.]
