"No. I can probably crush you either way." she says evenly, taking a seat on one of the desks.

She looks like she's avoiding looking at the portals.

"Challenge accepted."

He'd set up the game system and the TV, a final portal opening up and dropping a disk case in his hand which would go in the system before he tossed her a controller. They were going with a Soul Calibur game.

He'd take a spot next to her with his own controller.

"This game fine?"

Jan Di chuckles.

"If you were gonna pick something old, you coulda went with Soul Caliber 4." she jokes before rotating her shoulders.

"Works for me, though. Try not to get frustrated."

"Well if I wanted to go really old I could have done the first smash brothers."

He'd wink.

"Still can if you feel like getting your ass handed to you by a rodent."

He was a Pikachu player and proud of it.

"Oh man, I hope you can back that smack talk up."

He'd select Kilik as his fighter.

Jan Di smirks at the selection but doesn't comment on it. She picks Xianghua. Might as well challenge herself and not go for an obvious counter.

He'd smirk back and when the fight began he'd start off with a side step and a horizontal strike hoping to surprise her by not going for a push away from him to take advantage of the range. Which would be the plan with the possible knockdown. But he wanted to start with her on the defensive.

Jan Di's gameplay would be pretty defensive in general, using her characters fake-outs to an almost frustrating level and taking advantage of her combos when she could find openings.

She'd find Eric to be an adaptable fighter. Able to use Kilik at his range pretty well, but also unafraid to close in the distance for his grabs and juggling combos. He tended to play more aggressively however, going for openings when he sees them. Leading to a few fake outs working and giving Jan Di her chance!

The combos are deadly and she gives little opportunities to land and regain your composure!

You know those people you assume just do this all day? She's pretty close.

But she does mess up and he can get back up.

"Woops."

He'd get up with the sweep attack to hopefully knock her off her feet and regain his distance, his eyes flickering back up to his life pool. The combo lock was pretty brutal. But recoverable.

She doesn't manage to block it so he can get away.

"How often do you play?" she asks casually, circling around him once she's back up.

"Less often since I've been busy working on stuff with other dimensions. But let's just say the managers at a few arcades know me by name."

He'd keep circling and attempt to hit her up and start a juggling combo to finish the round.

She'd move away from the knock up, hoping to take that time to all-in him as well but she still had the range difference working against her.

"That explains it."

She is able to get close but not quite combo lock him! But he can't use range anymore. He goes for a kick attack because it's quick. It was a bad time for him to be close.

"You?"

"I wouldn't say nearly as much. I go through phases." she admits.

"I'm kinda rusty, but better than casuals."

Which is evident by her mess-ups and his kick landing quickly enough to disrupt her.

Next would be a quick horizontal swipe attack to knock her down if she didn't block or duck.

"You're good. Honestly I haven't played a fighter in months. But it sounded fun."

"I hear ya."

She ducks and tries to move in quickly to start her combo!

Most people would probably sigh in relief, Jan Di on the other hand just lowers her controller.

"Shit. That was close."

"Should have gone for a low thrust instead of the knock back."

Oh well, hindsight.

"That was a killer match though."

"It was."

To prove this she starts wiping her hands on her pants.

"I'll admit this isn't as easy as I thought it'd be."

He'd crack his knuckles because round two was about to start.

"I guess so." she says neutrally. "My friends don't spend as much time on the same games as I do, to be fair. But I wouldn't say they were bad."
