 | This had been a long time in coming. Tain was ready for this, ready to play a game that was the so-called "Game of the Year" but had so many difficulties for the players. A glass of lemonade was at his elbow, placed there by his aunt before she'd ran out the door for her job. He'd had half a mind to make her stay in the house, but people needed a paramedic more than he needed a Guardian. It was unfortunate, but it was necessary. He just hoped that she'd get back soon. He took a sip of lemonade before he started typing, sending off a quick Pesterchum message to the girl he'd be servering. DR: Piper.
DR: It's your turn to enter the game now.
DR: You ready?Hopefully, she would be. His game had downloaded by now, and mentions of the meteors had been paraded across the news. People were panicking. Tain took another sip of lemonade and waited for a response, tapping his fingers on the keys. |

SUMMER'S ON ITS DEATHBED. AND THERE IS SIMPLY NOTHING WORSE THAN KNOWING HOW IT ENDS. TAIN LOSLANDER - dont hate me on how late it is omg
Apprehension and anxiety were what she was feeling at the moment. SBURB was supposed to be fun, a game to play with one to eleven friends, and more importantly, it was aimed to be a learning experience. Then why did it cause the meteors on Harry's home? Why was there a countdown? The world wasn't ending as far as Piper knew - Raphael was fast asleep on her bed and the small television set in the corner was tuned to the news, talking about falling stock prices. It was insane, and it was driving Piper slowly more and more upset.
Her pesterchum chimed, catching Piper's attention as she turned to her computer, grinning a little.
PS: Not really...
PS: I'm a little apprehensive about going in, but I think it'll go away with time.
PS: There's no better time to start then now, Tain.
She just hoped it wasn't the wrong decision. It wasn't like it would have been among the first of her bad ideas, and it definitely wasn't going to be the last. Then again, Tain knew what he was doing - and she had helped Harry through his adventure. |

| Tap, tap, tap. The repetitive motion helped wear off his energy, just, a bit, while he was waiting for Piper to answer. Her pale-green font on his screen did bring a pensive expression onto his face, though, and he hummed a little in reply. DR: No time like the present!
DR: Alright. So.
DR: I've gone through the walkthroughs, so I'll run the server disc now.
DR: My IP address should be 17.255.144.185.
DR: Select me as your server when after you insert the client disc.The loading screen really was odd. What text flashed under the circling spirograph was too fast for him to catch, so Tain mainly ended up squinting at his screen, his tapping forgotten for now. How had Piper done this? DR: If you have any advice, now would be the time to give it.
DR: Skaianet didn't provide a lot of information, and I haven't been able to talk with Harry yet, only Ame.[ I COULD NEVER YOU BEAUTIFUL PROCRASTINATOR /smooches plz ignore the shortness omg ] PIPER COLEMAN |

SUMMER'S ON ITS DEATHBED. AND THERE IS SIMPLY NOTHING WORSE THAN KNOWING HOW IT ENDS. TAIN LOSLANDER - luv u yassy
PS: Like the present, right... That didn't help with the uneasy feeling about it all. She didn't want to trigger some weird effect on the planet like what had happened with Harry -- didn't want to be rushed into getting into some weird other-space. It was surreal, and not in the good way. In the bad, bad way. PS: Okay. I'll connect us right now.
PS: Then we can get this show on the road, I guess.
PS: Give me a second, I have to replace the server disc with the client one. Turning in her chair, Piper quickly switched the discs and waited for it to load. Thankfully, there was no downloading needed, as she'd done that bit before linking up with Harry. Instead, it booted up and she was faced with a similar screen as when she was about to server Harry. It was black, with white words that she suspected was the 'norm for coding. After selecting the equivalent of 'find a server' button, Piper typed in Tain's IP address. Then, nothing happened. She wasn't sure of what to expect when being the Client player, but this definitely was not it. PS: Okay. We're connected, I think.
PS: So you should know what to do from reading the walkthroughs. Try not to drop anything too heavy, I'm pretty sure Grandma wouldn't like having a hole in the floor... With that being done, she let Tain do whatever he felt was necessary. |

| The walkthroughs, in his opinion, were useless. Vague, seemingly irrelevant material was all over the internet, and Skaianet had nothing comprehensive about their Game of the Year. Still, Piper had done it, so Tain could do it too. Right? DR: Um. Alright.
DR: Let's do this, then.
DR: Don't worry, I'll try not to destroy anything that can't be repaired later.His computer's screen phased out of its rather colorful loading screen, and he felt his eyebrows rising in surprise. Was that... Piper's room? With the little house-thingie cursor that was SBURB's logo as his mouse? He'd been warned somewhat beforehand, but nothing was like the actual experience. Curiously Tain clicked on Piper's bed, poking it before he turned it towards any book stacks that he could see. When he'd finished exploring the capabilities of the server to his satisfaction (and trying not to destroy anything while doing so), Tain sent off a quick pester to Piper, ready to actually begin. He hoped he hadn't taken too much time learning more about the server/client relationship thing. DR: So, I'm looking through the server's menu and I'm seeing a couple of things that I'm supposed to put down in your room, if I'm right.
DR: Do you know where I can put your Cruxtruder, Totem Lathe, Alchemizer, and Pre-Punched Card? |
