and my ass still forgot some of the questions in my inbox because of snake content. oh well. maybe i'll answer those few separately some other time. im! outta here. jumps off stage.
"Hey, hey, hey~! One fifty-five! Not too shabby if I do say so myself!" Lips turn up into a grin, wrists shaking themselves out after the sheer gauntlet of high-octane Snake content. He has... no idea why that was so captivating. His attention often latched onto arcade-style video games, but... Snake was a bit rudimentary, no? But hey, people still enjoyed classic Pac-Man, so... simple or not, they were classics for a reason.
...Anyways. Bones pop as legs finally lift a torso to standing. Roll the wrists, twist the torso, stretch the neck, and reach for the sky! "Nicole, do you have any idea what's next on the docket? I think I'm... done with this project for a bit."
《 "Of course. I recommend prioritizing the packages at the front of your residence. There has been a considerable and sudden rise in parcels. They are currently blocking the front entrance to the point of barring both entry and departure." 》
...Wait, what? A head can't help but turn curiously at that new information. He had that much mail piled up? Didn't he just check the mailbox? Let's just go see and—
"Oh dear." It's a literal mountain. A shadow is cast over his home.
Yeah, let's... let's address these packages.
Item: A Set of Dice
Rarity: ⏶ Common
"I think... I think these are weighted...?"
Do you consider yourself a lucky person when playing?
Not necessarily. I think my luck is rather average. I do not have streamer luck where I just started something and I get a super rare thing in the first thirty minutes of a game. I'd say the only time I feel 'lucky' is when it's at the expense of another, lmao. If me being lucky would make someone else upset because they, too, are unlucky? Then the fact that it's funny may raise my luck stat temporarily.
Item: The Wishlist
Rarity: ⏶ Common
"Aw, I think this one's an old letter to Santa!"
How many video games are in your backlog right now?
Not as much as you'd think, honestly! I restarted playing Another Crab's Treasure yesterday, been meaning to finish that game. It's really good! But it's been a while since I've played it so I just started a new profile. I really gotta go back to Outer Wilds, though. My smooth brain got stuck at a section and I'm too stubborn to look up hints for a game like that. But I was really enjoying my time with it, so I might have to swallow my pride so I can keep playing.
I've got Dordogne, Nine Sols, Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound, and Penny's Big Breakaway for games I started, enjoyed, but never finished. But that's honestly it. I replay a lot of the games I own, so my backlog isn't so massive.
Item: A Soft Pillow
Rarity: ⏶ Common
"Maybe I can actually get a good night's worth of shut-eye with this thing..."
What's your comfort game?
It's a split between UNBEATABLE and Marvel's Spider-Man 2. I'll turn those games on just about every day for about a half hour each. They're just good games to turn on and stop thinking for a little while.
Item: A Stunning Frame
Rarity: ⏶ Common
"Kinda thought there'd be something in the frame.
What game has the best art style?
Hm. Kinda can't think of any game that really sticks out to me. I like more cartoony-styled games (gee i wonder why) so games like Wind Waker, Hi-Fi Rush, and Astro Bot are the first to come to mind.
UNBEATABLE has a godlike style, and while I need to play more of it, Another Crab's Treasure is so adorable in how it incorporates a polluted ocean into the decor of the world. Using long-ass CVS receipts as sidewalks, playing cards as doors to homes with newspaper curtains. Stuff like that is so inventive.
Item: An Enchanted Amulet
Rarity: ✦ Uncommon
"Enchanted. Right."
Who's your favorite video game protagonist?
Do you really need an answer to a question like that? It's Sonic the Hedgehog! I adore this blue fucker, he lives in my brain every second of every day. He's genuinely motivational and he's an instant shot of dopamine every time I see him.
Item: The Memory Squeegee
Rarity: ⏶ Common
"It's a memory-foam squeegee-sponge. Seems kinda wasteful."
What game would you erase from your memory just to experience it for the first time again?
If you asked me this question a couple of months ago, the answer definitely would've been Celeste. That game was my go-to for emotionally resonant experiences I'd love to have again with clean eyes. But now? The answer has to be UNBEATABLE.
If you haven't heard of this game, you RIGHT THERE BEHIND THE SCREEN have to at least give it a quick Google search. Go watch a trailer for it, and if you aren't sold then and there on everything it's got to offer, then I don't know what to tell you. In fact? Here's a link to the trailer, on the house. I'M MAKING THIS BIG AND BRIGHT IN CASE YOU'RE SKIMMING THIS POST BECAUSE I GENUINELY WANT YOU TO SEE THIS.
I'm not sugarcoating it when I say that this game changed my life. It's a touch too glitchy at times, and I can understand if that turns you off. It's a rhythm game! So if you're not about games like that, I can understand that too! But I kid you not that I was bawling my goddamn eyes out like a baby when I reached unbeatable's finale. It's got a demo! Try it out and see if it's for you!
Item: The Friendship Bracelet
Rarity: ⏶ Common
"Not just a friendship bracelet, but The Friendship Bracelet."
Which game character felt like a genuine childhood friend?
Unfortunately, I don't quite bond with characters in that sort of fashion. If I really thought about it, I could maybe retroactively come up with a character that latched onto me in my childhood like that, but it's nothing that jumps out at me like a childhood friend should.
Item: Your ID
Rarity: ⏶ Common
"Wait, this... this is my student ID for Spagonia University! What is this doing in the mail?!"
Do you have a username you always use in games?
Yes, I do! Fun Aaron lore fact: it used to be Coolman58734. But that's, like. literally the most childish username in the world. I go by Floraphonic now. Just a little more well put-together, me thinks.
Item: A Glass of Water
Rarity: ✦ Uncommon
"Someone mailed me a glass of water. Though, credit where credit is due: it's been packaged immaculately. Not a drop spilled!"
Best video game water level?
Certainly nothing from Sonic's long list of games, that's for sure. No-no, I think the water levels in Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze. I don't have any specific level names off the top of my head, but I know that the controls in those stages were always smooth as butter. Truly I've never enjoyed a water level in a video game more than in Tropical Freeze.
Item: An Old Key
Rarity: ⏶ Common
"It's going to haunt me not knowing what lock this key opens."
What games have opened doors for you in real life?
At first, I didn't think I had an answer for this question, but I absolutely do and it made me a little tender realizing it in the moment. It has to be the Splatoon series. I've met some of my best friends from the Splatoon RPC. I've gone to Florida to see them on multiple occasions, trips that literally transed my childhood friend, now girlfriend's, gender.
The assistance of these friends of mine has also made me make realizations about myself, learning about how I like to dress and what kind of person I want to be. And it's entirely because of me making a blog for my Splatoon OC. So... that trophy absolutely has to go to Splatoon! Primarily Splatoon 2 if I had to shout one out in particular. You are one of the most infuriating games I've ever played, but damn if you didn't literally change my life's trajectory forever.
Item: A Dusty Tome
Rarity: ✶ Rare
"This better not zap me to a storybook-based world fraught with genies, dinosaurs, and pirate ships..."
What video game has the best lore?
I'm not the one for in-depth lore, honestly. But I think the answer has to default to Final Fantasy XIV: Online. It's the best lore because it's made to implant your OC in it seamlessly!
Item: A Crumpled Manual
Rarity: ⏶ Common
"Ooh! It's one of the old ones with cute a bunch of cute art and lore in it! Lemme see if I can smooth out the crinkles."
Do you skip tutorials as fast as you can?
My name is spelt 'Aaron', not 'Arin'. No, I always engage with tutorials and very rarely skip them.
Item: Headphones
Rarity: ⏶ Common
"Uh... these headphones were not made with Mobians in mind. I think I'll just stick to my earbuds."
Name a video game song you still have stuck in your head.
UNBEATABLE. Forgetter, Sleeping In, Bookend, Square Up... I could list the entire OST if I really wanted to but this post is long enough as is. Play unbeatable by the way.
Item: A Recipe Book
Rarity: ⏶ Common
"Hey, some of these recipes actually seem pretty neat. Maybe Amy and I can have an afternoon of cooking together with this thing!"
Is there a food from a game you would love to have in real life?
Do chilidogs count? Sonic is truly the only reason I've eaten chilidogs, so... Default might have to go to him. Only think I can think of past that is the strawberry pie from Celeste. Madeline makes a gorgeous strawberry pie if you pick up all the strawberries (a common collectable in that game) throughout the breadth of your adventure. I'd kill for a slice of that thing, god it looks delicious.
Item: The Great Mole
Rarity: ✦ Uncommon
"That is just a mole! Who mailed a live mole!? And why is it so calm? Did it... mail itself?"
Best video game underground level?
Does the entirety of Hollow Knight: Silksong count? It's all technically underground, so... In lieu of a better answer, Silksong, final answer.
if im being real, the reason i find the snake game enticing is because there are rarities to the 'items' and therefore the questions. i wanna get the rare questions. i feel like this is direct gamer manipulation. im calling hr.
He's... he's just playing Snake on his phone. It's been a good half an hour now. There's a full mechanical project in the making on the desk in front of him, yet tools lay scattered and disregarded like yesterday's tomatoes. ...At least it's not Subway Surfers?
"—Tch! Dang, one short of my high score."
...
...
...
He immediately starts up another game. Look, if the only ''''''joke'''''' he experiences today is a massive loss of productivity, then that's a perfectly fine egg to have on his face.

He didn't like that flower at all. The host of this event. Flowey, they had called themself. They spoke with a sense of schadenfreude woven thick into their bubbly little dulcet tones— only to turn the other cheek mere seconds later with a flash across the expression. That sudden shift to something darker, yet darker still. Fighting was the name of the game. It's what this entire tournament was founded on.
...This didn't feel like a fight.
It felt like survival.
Last longer. Those were the operative words. It wasn't to win, or escape, or do anything besides outlast. The fox, he... never has he described himself as the sturdy type. Quite the contrary, as a matter of fact. He was breakable. Pain hurt. He felt every inch of discomfort that had ever been inflicted upon him. And now would be no different. But a keen mind was aware of this fact. Flight best served him as something to keep his distance. He preferred long-ranged weapons for this very fact. He had gizmos and gadgets galore that shielded him from incoming attacks.
Frankly, this was a challenge made for the fox-kit.
So the fox-kit would persist.
It's a slowly-fought game. Twin-tailed turbines, they cease for nothing and no one. Whirling appendages, they slow only for sudden cuts of the engine to fall in a curled-up ball— from a sweeping vine looking to catch him unaware and lop his head off. Slap Shields of every elemental variety are used to prevent damage where fleeting speed cannot cover— a bullet hell's spread of little white pellets. Prudent are his movements. Nary a second of motion is wasted on extra effort. He, the fine-tuned machine. The task ahead of him, the purpose he was built to fulfill.
He will not underestimate his opponent. The freaky little flower would probably love that, wouldn't it? No... Overconfidence has been his downfall in the past, and it would not do him in today.
"—Tch...!"
"Augh!"
"Ow! Ow!"
But the young one is not perfect. Past the cracks of a practiced defense will chips of red-hot pain punch through. That accursed flower, he was most assuredly learning the clever fox's patterns by now. He only had so many tricks up his sleeve, darn it! "Out of Slap Shields!" will a hoarse voice cry, twin-tailed namesakes starting to cramp from the seemingly unending stretch of raw endurance. "Chaos Drives are spent!" Cardio be damned, even Eggman fought to keep the kit on his toes like this. "Need a.... need a second to..."
Rest.
His shoe touches the ground for but a measly millisecond.
A decision that makes the body buckle. Now wracked with the throbbing, stabbing ache of a crown of thorned vines piercing the ankle from every angle. Wrapped. Encased. Ensnared.
Flowey, he... he knew the fox's limits down to the very instance. A snare trap wrapped around the foot. The sudden shift of momentum moving him against his own volition. It was more than plenty of a hint as to what was about to come next for his pesky limits. For his penchant for constant airtime, the kit would be returned to his overhead domain rather swiftly. Like a whip of the wrist.
And brought back down to the ground with speed to spare.
"No-no— wait—!!"
THE CRESCENT ARC SENDS AN ORANGE SMEAR OVERHEAD.
Grabbed and thrown, but never released.
IMPACT. FLARE. FIRE. PAIN. ACHE.
Floor... cold floor... face on floor. Copper taste.
STOMACH JERKS AGAIN. THE WORLD IS A SMUDGE OF COLOR.
Again. Again. Again. It is proven that he was not made for this.
FLUNG LIKE A FRAGILE COTTON DOLL.
Up. Down. Up. Down.
"Tails!" He greets with a warm grin and a comforting pat on the shoulder. "I just saw you out-a there. Don't overthink it, pal. Ya did fantastico!"
Whipping out his thermos, and somehow, a collection of fancy tea cups, Luigi poured his player two pal a cup. "Careful, it's-a hot. I put-a some honey in there too. Nothin' beats a honey tea, hehe."
Don't overthink it... He'd be a liar if he said those words didn't hit like a sack of bricks. If he had a ring for every time that's been spoken to him...
It's a trying smile that fights to match his greener counterpart. "Heh... thanks, Luigi. Feels like I could've done a little better, but..." A sigh. A shrug. "Tomorrow's another day and all'a that."
Namesakes slump with his mood, heavy and downtrodden instead of their usual lackadaisical, idle sway. And yet they can't help but pick up that slight bit at the smell of fresh honey. Better tea than coffee, silently says the mental. "Roger that. Gives me a reason to just sit and enjoy it, I suppose." Maybe that's why the best teas were always served so darn hot. Because it's supposed to be a relaxing beverage, unlike coffee or an energy drink. You can't chug it. Sip it slowly. Allow body and mind to cool down alongside it.
...So the kit would sit. Sit, sip, and smile. Luigi was one who knew how to bask in the quiet. And with a life as loud and raucous as the fox's, such a skill was assuredly appreciated.
Twin-tails lift and swish.
His little legs swing gently back and forth.
He exhales, breath hot from the piping cup of tea provided.
Hot, and honey-scented.
It's a more spontaneous urge that takes the hedgehog. Not even he knew he would be participating this year. That particular decision was made roughly... hm. Ten minutes ago? Ten or twelve. He was mid-chilidog bite when the thought came to him.
The blue blur had arrived for Tails and Tails alone; the fox-kit showed interest in participating and wanted some company to tag along. Nerves and all that. Obviously, a chance to sit back and watch his little sibling kick butt on stage was a no-brainer. But this looked like a pretty fun shindig!
...That, and he saw Knuckles up on stage being a big red blowhard. Call it his competitive nature, but he can't have folks like Knux or Shadow living it up too much without a certain cerulean speedster to put them in their place~. Oh, and speed he would— a blur blasts past and into the battlefield on high. Guess that's the whistle!
The buzzer beats, and... by Gaia's name, so does Sonic. Frankly, it's a bit of a mockery up there for the onslaught of opponents. It was clear who here was a seasoned veteran of this Smash Bros. stuff and who wasn't. Unfair fights like these ran in his veins! How many times has he been up against a horde of Eggman robots with nothing but his gloves and sneakers to his name? Too many to count! Motion streaks with momentum at its beck and call— these suckers were swinging at air! After all, you can't hit what you can't see! All he had to do was keep this up and the full suite of K.O.s was sure to be his! Only... one thing. Emerald eyes couldn't help but glance to the side time and time again.
Uh. Who in the world was that kid? She'd been here since the start, never engaging, always keeping to the back, twirling that little wand of hers. The bite-sized Tails in his brain told him to deal with her sooner rather than later, but... running down a child didn't exactly mesh well with the hedgehog. Call him a softie all you wanted, he still had morals. When she engaged, he'd deal with her! Simple enough! Didn't look like she was doing much, anyway.
But... was she boosting the other Assist Trophies or something? Gah... with so many faces, it was hard to remember what everyone's gimmick was. And yet, the girl was awful confident, wasn't she? Giving a sigh and a roll of the eyes, the field cleared of adversaries as the next volley was spawned. She merely beckons without a word. Well, he wouldn't leave her without a heaping helping of—!
"Speeddendum: Trappartition."
"Ah-hah-hah, speed trap. I get it, how cute. Yeah, you're the one with the spells that make my life a living nightmare, how could I forget. Remind me not t'play so nice next time." So much for his win streak.
"Y'know, I think y'did great out there, bud. That turtle guy throwin' all the hammers clearly had it out for 'ya. And that brain in a jar was just downright freaky. I would'a been pretty distracted myself."
...Bah. A huff and a puff. The comfort was appreciated, but it felt like he really scuffed it out there. Sixteen K.O.s. He could do better than that. He knows he could do better than that! If he just... No, no... he really should've—!
"—And besides all'a that, you know the contests ain't over yet, right? Sure, we rocked up to the party a little unfashionably late, but that just means we get t'step up t'bat tomorrow for another swing! It ain't over 'til it's over, and I say this party's just gettin' started! Hang your head low now and y'won't see how awesome you're gonna be for the days t'come! And hey, even if things don't pan out, I guess bein' the kid that's saved the world more than a dozen times'll have'ta do for a pretty cool consolation prize, huh?"
...Bah. His brother and his infectious energy won't let him mope about this one for long, will they? An unstoppable tag-team that can't help but make the fox-kit smile from within the blue hedgehog's warm embrace. Tomorrow's another day, not all is lost, yada-yada-yada. Stuff he knows, but... it doesn't hurt to hear someone else say it.

Pouring himself a steaming cup of tea in a fancy little cup and sipping it daintily with a pinkie out. Yep, no embarrassing himself this year. He's a movie star, after all.
"...Yes, please." He sits down with a bit of a plop. Is he a little embarrassed at his performance? ...Absolutely. Would he like to drown it in a cup of delicious tea alongside a friend who also knows how it feels to try your best and still come up short despite your most valiant efforts? ...Yes. Yes, he would.
"Sign-ups are here, correct? A-And my tardiness won't be an issue, right? I had some malfunctions with my Blast Cannon that I had to buff out, but then I felt some of my other equipment needed a little fine-tuning if I was going to do a lot of fighting, and...
"Uh... H-Heh... Nevermind. I won't bore you with the details. I-I'm ready to go if the stage'll have me!"
It's a chuckle and a rubberneck from the twin-tailed fox, the dullest of thrumming hums emanating off of a red and orange arm cannon donned on the right arm. He's always wanted to try one of these Smash Seminars, but scheduling conflicts never failed to stop him in his tracks. Who would've thought Doctor Eggman really enjoyed trying to take over the world in the dregs of Spring? The fox-kit had the data charts to back his claim up and everything!
...Was it nerves chewing at his brain, frayed senses making short-circuited thoughts to distract from the fear of blowing it in front of a crowd of people? Who's to say! What mattered in the here and now was this: it was time to give this thing his all! The name of the game was Assist Trophies. Take as many as you can down for the count, all without being knocked out yourself. Deep breaths... Try your best and relish in the fun of the event! He's not here to stop shows. It's just a reason to stretch the bones that, for once, doesn't involve death-defying Eggman fortresses or do-or-die scenarios with the world's safety on the line. This was for fun! ...Right?
Fun was... a word in the English dictionary, yes. But would he use it to describe the events unfolding before him? Well, ah... not quite. Gaia below, he had barely gotten started before that two-ton block of spike and cinder knocked the high-flyer right out of the sky! He had hoped to do a little bit better than that. Perhaps he should've stretched. Or maybe his blaster needed an update. Can he... get a redo? No? Ugh. To the bleachers with him, then...
hello chat. it is half past midnight and it is time for me to contemplate assimilating funny little button-eyed nb's into my personality. play along with my inane ramblings, it may be fun.
it seems like a cute way to spend my time. mutuals, like this post for a winter-themed ask from tails! whether it be our muses hunkering down or playing in the snow, it seems fitting for tails to simply enjoy today. god knows he needs to get it in before the plot horrors arrive at his doorstep.
"Gosh... look at all of it out there. It felt a little silly heading out to stock up on food before the snow storm, but looking at it now? Kinda glad I did. I might be holed up at home for a good day, if not two!"
...
...
Forget working, he's hitting up his gaming backlog! Today's a full-blown snow day! Maybe he'll call up Sonic and the gang for a snowball fight outside! He could build snowmen with Cream and Charmy, and maybe get a hockey game going down at the pond!

Just remember, kiddo! Had you mustered up the chutzpah to shoot down Robotnik like you should've done 34 years ago, I would have never been kidnapped, tortured, or traumatized back in 2017!
Buuuuuuut what can I honestly expect from the guy who just exists so your little sibling shuts up about you hogging the controller?
He died. He died and went to Hell. This is what Hell looks like. He thought all of that stuff with Mephiles and Eggman was bad? This is divine punishment. Maybe if he just closes his eyes, he'll wake up from this nightmare like a bad dream. He'll be in his bed with nothing but a chill and a fading memory.
