He isn't the type to participate in these quests. They were boring. At least the beginner one's were. Fetch quests and kill monster quests and rescue damsel quests or kill very minor antagonist quests. For a game that had such sophisticated AI and realistic physics, Akiva found it all very...

It was hard to hear the other two over the din of the restaurant, and he was silently glad that Una had been dismissed to give them a little more space. Akiva hunched to be more eye level with his two shorter companions, as he listened to the conversation. "You can't taste anything?" he asked...

Everything she did in TerraSphere was an anomaly, screamed and rebelled against the being she was. It wasn't like her to throw caution to the wind, but she'd been at the end of her rope, burnt the fuck out from work, and wanted something that seemed like a light at the end of the tunnel. But she...

The difference between there and here always startled him. The way people behaved, that they could act in ways that Natalie would think were strange in real life, but nobody here would bat an eye. (Of course, it allowed him to be him too, so he wasn't complaining.) Sometimes he had to stop and...

He chuckled and waved the flyer in the air again, the paper crinkling loudly from the force. It was supposed to be a reassuring gesture, but probably just came off as exaggerated excitement. "Oh! Don't worry — there were so many that even though I, uh, maaaaybe did ignore the first few that I...

The posters were absolutely everywhere. The first few were easy enough to ignore. Akiva blew past them without a second glance, eyes on his prize. After trekking all day through the forest, he was hungry and on a mission. There was this food stand he'd eaten at the other day that was incredible...

Akiva laughed as Bradwynne splashed water on his face. "Feels good, doesn't it?" he replied as he shook his leg one at a time, trying to dry them a little more quickly. He still couldn't get over how realistic the game was. It was a little overwhelming — disconcerting, even — the way he felt...

"I could never turn down more cookies!" he exclaimed happily as he grabbed for one. Not patient enough to swallow before speaking and spewing crumbs again, he continues, "Thanks, dude. I appreciate the looking out." He hammed it up with an exaggerated wink. "I'm Akiva," he said, holding out a...

125 Vanguard: +10 DP per post (2/5 posts) The clang and clash of battle echoed faintly in the distance. For a brief moment, Akiva turned towards it, tempted, but self-preservation won out. No way he made it out of a fight, not when he could count the number of days he'd been splunking through...

He swept his wet hair out of his eyes with a hand and shook once more, like a dog. An easy smile settled on his lips as he tilted his head to the side, quiet for a moment as he scrutinized her. "A proud working woman?" he repeated dubiously before something hits him. Oh! He smacked his forehead...

125 Vanguard: +10 DP per post He was most definitely in over his head. It didn't seem like a complete beginner should be anywhere near this deep into the cave, but nevertheless, Akiva sauntered forward with a confidence that many would envy. Nothing like a little risk to spice up life. His...

Akiva still could not get over how real everything felt. This was supposed to be a mere game, and yet, things felt as real as they did in reality. The air smelled like grass and loam. The heat of the sun dappled his skin through the branches of the forest. Amazing. He reached up to rub a leaf...

It had been difficult getting used to the height difference. She—no, he kept bumping into door frames and low ceilings and hanging potters. Not to speak of his bruised and battered shins, constantly harried by chair legs and table edges and little people (man, people were so little from up...
