My cousin, who recently arrived, has a birthday today. Wishing him a happy birthday is encouraged.

He's 18 now after all. In many places that makes you an adult, Kazuya.

Yes, I know you can see me writing this.

It's a kind of video game.

18 where I'm from makes me an adult. So it's special to me, specifically, in my time.

whats a video game?

[He's trolling here. He just never got into the video game scene. Not when card games were much more fun.]

[belheir]

[Oh! He must be from one of those times that Naoya mentioned, where he's not as technologically advanced...

He falls for it, and answers completely in earnest.]

It's kind of like an interactive book. Some of them can be more or less like the Choose Your Own Adventure kinds, in that how you interact with the characters in the game determine the outcome of the ending.

sounds boring.

card games like mythomagic and duel monsters and magic are better.

[belheir]

I never really got into the card game scene. Or the video game scene, honestly. Most of the ones I played were because of a friend of mine.

[Which weren't bad games, honestly. But there's only so many times you can get your ass beat in a video game before you've had enough :(]

[refantasma]

card games are better. trust me.

[belheir]

If you say so, but they're just not my style.
