[listen. listen. levi is in a good mood about their games, so they listen very politely to nazuna describe games that they have only heard about as archived software, they ignore the now third time that nazuna has censored something with her own mouth, and they just settle into the bar so easily they almost feel at home. it's not something, they think, that they should've gotten used to, and yet here they are.]
Oh, you're talking about the game that that one virtual singer made about a century ago? [they are talking about it so sincerely that there's no way they could be joking.] I've heard a lot of good things about it. I haven't actually played it myself, but people still like it even in 2120.
Things like Apex, though, they're team games. Three on three, mostly. They're fun if you have the patience for other people not being as good as you. [ah, yes, competitive gamer moments.] If not... well, let's say it's a good thing my usual gaming rig has a grounding rod attached to it. [a joke! not really.] I've tried fighting games, but I could never really get my head around them... they're complicated in a different way.
[see, the thing is that they're talking so openly and casually right now that it might well seem like a totally different person. nazuna really has gotten them into a comfort zone of theirs, whether she'd meant to or not. it's enough to take their mind off of almost everything else, and they're just smiling and talking and acting normal the whole time. (they do not notice this in the moment; they will later, when they replay this conversation a thousand times in their head.)]
