This ain't no Ancho-V Games

[woomy]

Who: Agent 3, people who want to play games or shoot friends with lasers
What: Location based log. Such a noisy place is great to have secret talks or just have some fun on the arcades and shooting friends with lasers.
When: flexible dates in the month of April
Where: Press Start Arcade and Laser Tag
Warnings: Excessive use of black light and neon?

The Press Start Arcade boasts a number of games to pass the hours. The standard set of arcade games are present, along with a few imported arcade cabinets in foreign languages. It's a noisy, vibrant place with lots of foot traffic during after school hours. However, there are also a number of older patrons ranging from college students to "team building" office workers.

The main attraction is laser tag. There are two teams, colors shown on the special numbered vests and guns people have to wear. Team are initially divided into two waiting lobbies before going into the arena. People shoot the targets on the front and back of the vest to score a point. Hitting other people earn points. Getting hit loses points. Getting hit too much "locks" your weapon until you go back to the team base and shoot a recharge target. Key areas in the arena can be strategically captured for more points. There is also an area that looks strangely like something Agent 3 would get up to. At the end of the match, the points are tallied up on a big flat screen. Both the team scores and individual scores (shown by what number gear the person is wearing) are showed. Fun for everyone!

There is also a small pizza and soda place and a party room because what self respecting laser tag place doesn't have pizza and soda and party rooms?

[[ OOC: Agent 3 will have a thread of her own if people want to interact with her. Otherwise, you can use this for whatever shenanigans you like. ]]

LASER TAG;

Mai has been looking for a place beyond the relative safety of her room at the penthouse for target practice. And while this isn't precisely knives, it's the closest she's going to get to a sanctioned and normal practicing place for now. Hey, at least she gets to work on her aim and speed, right?

The violinist isn't really all the easy to find. She's not exactly hiding but she seems to have this tendency of sticking to the shadows and hitting shots when she can. Now and then if she seems to feel she has a very good shot she'll charge in gung ho and laser gun blazing.

Of course, there's always the chance she runs right smack into someone turning a corner too.

PIZZA AND SODA;

Because nothing says games like getting pumped on sugar and grease, right? Mai isn't complaining, though she makes an interesting picture as she stands just outside the main floor of the arcade with her drink in one hand. She's dressed down - dark shirt with a logo, silvery necklaces and jeans - but she's still as darkly dressed as ever. And amidst the colorful flashing lights, she sticks out just a little.

Laser Tag Pep Talk:

[ 3 (or Emma Skidd as her name tag says) is excited. After the Fairy Trial Games, business has been moving swimmingly. She's even gotten a small promotion. No longer is she just doing small odd jobs, but she's also in charge of one of the waiting lobbies. They discovered that she plays one mean game of laser tag and is a good ref as well. ]

All right Shooters! I'm going teach you the basics of laser tag, so you'll be fresh enough to survive in there! This is the gear you'll be wearing. It's connected to your shooter which will also show you your stats and health. Pull this to fire. You need to hit these targets on the vests and the walls to earn points. If your splatted from too many shots, you need to go back to base to respawn by shooting this target here. You'll see it right when you enter those doors.

[ She points to a target that's clearly labeled as a recharge target. ]

Now for some rules. No running. You gotta keep one limb on the ground at all times. Don't get too rough. We only got bandages and ice for you here. Don't point this stuff in anyone's eyes. You don't get points that way.

I can one-hit-KO anyone who breaks the rules, so be fresh and follow them. If you're ready, put on your gear, and I'll see you in the arena.

Downtime:

[ When she's not helping out in the waiting lobbies or playing ref, she's keeping the place clean and restocking the prizes. She has some extra arcade tickets from her own wins that she'll share to her friends or anyone who's almost has enough tickets for something they want.

She may also snag a piece of pizza from time to time. She was Team Pizza, after all. ]

LASER TAG

[Maxxie is super competitive, but in a fun way, you know? In the lobby he's bouncing excitedly and holding up his laser gun with a grin. He may even be engaging in a little bit of shit-talking, trying to egg on his team-mates (consisting primarily of other Flashstep members, probably) into a bit of friendly competition to see who can score the most points.]

[Once they're actually inside Maxxie is just as high energy and even a bit reckless. It would not be a surprise to see him do an action roll across a hallway, but he hangs back when he should.]

ARCADE & LOUNGE

[Having caught the competitive spirit bug, when Maxxie's not recovering from a laser tag match he's probably challenging someone to some 2-player arcade game. He's surprisingly not sour when he loses, almost like his attitude has shifted a bit in the past few months...]

[Anyway other than that he's enjoying some pizza with his bandmates or posing for selfies when fans approaching him. All around this is a pretty good day for him.]

LASER TAG

[Terry is... Actually surprisingly good at this. He's no action hero, but he's quick on his feet and blends in upsettingly well. Also? Totally ruthless. He's not a sore loser, but he came for points. Also it's kind of a good outlet for how stressed and angry he's been as of late.]

[There's something about the gun in his hand that feels weird, and the thought "I never finished basic anyway" flashes through his mind when they're getting started, but that gets pushed to the back of his mind in favour of total friendly annihilation.]

ARCADE & LOUNGE

[Knowing how competitive he can be, Terry sticks to the single player games. He's better at the retro stuff, and anything requiring good hand-eye co-ordination is... Not his forte. Occasionally he gets cornered by a fan, so there are selfies abound! And he gives them his tickets too, since he's not really planning on using them for anything anyway.]

[Seeing as he came with Maxxie and the rest of Flashstep, Terry spends his downtime eating and chilling with them. He and Maxxie are increasingly becoming one of those couples who are attached at the hip and it's disgusting. Sorry everyone.]
