Does anyone else play Tetris?

_{[Guess who finally discovered the game apps on his 'gear! And guess who's been playing the games ever since! Spoiler: this guy. Cooper sounds pretty excited, actually, in that almost kid-like way that the ones who know him will probably recognise. He speaks fast and chipper.]}

Damn good game. Very engaging, very challenging. I've yet to get past the 100 lines mark, but I'd very much like to believe I'm getting there.

_{[Beat. You know, sometimes he really doesn't want to be here, but this games-in-the-gears-thing certainly picked him up.]}

Falling puzzle pieces _[:D] ... that Minesweeper game isn't half bad, either. And if I've got my facts right there are more games available for purchase at the PokéMarts. So, Network: any recommendations?

_{[You should be able to HEAR the grin in his voice, seriously.]} Nothing like a good game to keep you occupied.

_[Action_{for anyone in Ecruteak! You're likely to find him somewhere in the middle of town on a park bench or something, cross-legged with an Eevee asleep in his lap, playing Tetris on his 'gear like a boss.]}

It's a puzzle game like Tetris, but there's this medicine bottle that's filled with dozens of little viruses! Red, yellow, and blue. Then you get these pills that are split into two with those three colors. Dr. Mario stands outside the jar and throws the pills into the bottle, and if you stack the colors right with the bugs then they disappear like the Tetris block do when you fill in the gaps.

And it's game over when you reach the top of the bottle?

Yep! You've got it, mister.

I try to keep up.

I don't think we've talked bofore. Dale Cooper.

_{[Because wow, being called 'mister' - he hasn't had that for a while.]}

[ She'd normally call you ojii-san or something along those lines, but she's assuming most people here don't speak Japanese and it takes some effort to remember how to say it-- how weird is that? --anyway. ]

It's nice to meet you, Cooper-san. I'm Aya Fujimiya.

Pleasure meeting you, Aya. You're Japanese?

_{[He is so baffled at the amount of Japanese people, honestly.]}

I am. [ She smiles, completely friendly. ]

Seems a lot of people are from there. I've never had the pleasure to visist, myself.

I wonder why that is, but it certainly seems that way, even if some of us are from "different Japan's". Where are you from, Cooper-san?

There really are all kinds of worlds represented here. _{[Quick smile.]} I'm American.

There are. If you can get past the obvious downside the the situation I think it's an incredible opportunity. I wonder if we'll remember the people we've met here if we return home. I'd hope so... This has all been amazing.

I'd like that very much.

_{[Remember them, that is. He looks solemn for a moment, but a gentle smile is in place.]}

I'd prefer to call it 'incredible' myself, but I can't argue with you.
