Lazy Day
With all that had been happening Shane decided that he needed a day off from work. All things considered it might be a while before he really could get a day off again. So he called out of work with an excuse and slept in a bit.

He got up later and made himself a nice late big breakfast for himself. Pancakes, eggs, and bacon. And of course a nice cup of hot coffee.

	"Ooh, the character you picked is good. Kung Laaaooooooo." Etoile tries to mimic the deep voice who announces the characters you pick. She got a little more comfy. Soon the game started up, and with a mash of different random buttons she tries her best to defeat Shaun's character."Ha, take that!" Etoile says teasingly. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Shane laughs at the impression. Shane starts playing around with the different buttons. "No take this!" Kung Lao starts off doing good but Shane starts losing not to far into the match. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	So far Shane was kicking her butt. Suddenly the tables turned, now she was kicking Kung Lao's butt with Sub Zero. Mash up of different buttons, she discovered one of his freezing techniques."Take that, haha!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Damn it." Shane starts mashing some buttons trying to get free of the ice that left him open to a free blow. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Now is her chance to hot him with a good final blow. She mashes up a bunch of buttons, trying to see what kind of hit to give to Shane's player. She managed to hit him, nothing critical."Oh no!" Etoile gasps out. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	After his character get knocked out of the ice with very little health left, Shane manages to have his character throw his hat at Sub Zero. Which Shane thought looked pretty cool. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Eeeeek!!" Etoile blurts out. He was actually good at this. That move knocked down a lot of her characters HP. "That was a cool move!" She says to Shane. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I honestly could not tell you how I did," Shane says happily pretty sure he couldn't repeat it if he wanted to. He goes back to button mashing. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Etoile giggled at him. She kept on trying her best to beat him, it looked like he was getting the upper hand in this fight."Oh noes! Time is running out." Etoile points out, she tries to quickly finish off his character. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Shane nods and starts button mashing in a frenzy. Works for a bit till a bad random button left his character wide open for a hit. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Heee! An opening!" Etoile said all excited like. She mashed buttoned like no tomorrow, and made a connection. She successfully finished off his guy this around."Woo!" Etoile said, she looks to Shane and smiles."Good game." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Ah damn it," Shane says as he loses. "Yeah very entertaining." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Etoile grins at her victory! Really, anyone could have won it...Shane certainly came close to winning. Etoile leans over to gently poke at his cheek."Good game. Care to play again or something else?" Etoile asked. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Shane sulks a little bit having wanted to win but it was still a lot of fun. "I'm up for either really." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	aceofhearts 2013-02-13 06:19 pm UTC (link)
	Etoile looked at from the corner of her eye. She caught him sulking...it was like a ping to her heartstrings. She had no clue boys could look /that/ cute when sulking. Etoile reached over to gently pat his head, giving it a ruffle."You fought gallantly." Etoile says with a bright grin."Okay!" She quickly moves off the couch to put in a different game.

	lightningbolt 2013-02-14 12:22 am UTC (link)
	"Thanks," Shane says shaking himself out of his sulking, "So what's up next?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Halo? I'll do a easy mission, just to give you a run through on the game." Etoile said. She moves back to sit down, and waits for the game to start up. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	lightningbolt 2013-02-15 05:56 pm UTC (link)
	"Ok that works for me," Shane says as he sits back to watch. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	aceofhearts 2013-02-17 05:22 pm UTC (link)
	"This game is fun...a lot of shooting. The missions are out of this world." She said. Etoile starts picking out the mission, setting it up for two players."We'll start out easy...get you use to the weapons and such." Etoile said, pressing starting and waiting for the game countdown to finish. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Ok," Shane says picking up his controller and trying to figure out the controls. He could already tell this was going to end badly. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	aceofhearts 2013-02-19 01:19 pm UTC (link)
	"Hey don't worry! You'll enjoy this one," She says, looking at him with a smile."Ready?" She asked. The count down was done, the game started off with them in a city."Follow me lead, so that they you'll know what to shot and what to do." She constructed him. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"OK," He says moving the thumb sticks to follow after her character a bit slowly as he got used to thing. He might have gotten caught staring up a the sky for a bit before he figured out how to get the view back down again. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Etoile played this game enough to have a good handle on it. Etoile made sure to move about at a reasonable pace for Shane. After all, this was his first time playing the game."You're getting the hang of it!" She chimed in. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	lightningbolt 2013-02-21 12:55 am UTC (link)
	"I think I just shot myself in the foot," Shane says a little confused, "Or something." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	aceofhearts 2013-02-22 01:32 pm UTC (link)
	Etoile laughed a little."I've done that or accidently shot my own teammate in the game." She stops moving her guy, letting Shane get a reign on his. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
