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.]}

_{[See, Envy? See? Tetris is the game to play in Johto and now you know it.]}

Me? I'm human.

Guess that would explain why you like these little games so much. [Even if he liked the game too shhh don't tell. Envy shrugs, looking a bit more distant with the new information, but then he gives Cooper a closer look.]

Think I've seen you before somewhere, but I don't remember getting your name.

_{[He'd be insulted (except not overly) but he could tell that you were into the game, Envy, so he'll just give you an even look before nodding.]}

We talked when Dee disappeared. Dale Cooper.

[Oh yes, now Envy remembers. He frowns slightly at the remembrance of Dee vanishing, but then hides it and nods.]

Right, that was it. Name's Envy.

_{[Oooh so this is Envy. He'd had his suspicions, but had wanted to make sure.]}

You're the one France is in love with.

_{[It's not a question. C:]}

[WHAT]

[HOW DID YOU]

[where had that come from Envy was not prepared]

[Congratulations Cooper, you caught him completely by surprise with that question. If he'd been drinking anything he would have choked on it. Enjoy him getting his face back under control for the next few seconds.]

I-- yeah, that's me. You know France?

_{[Oh, he's totally enjoying it. Have a sunny grin, Envy. No big deal, right?]}

He's one of the first people I had the pleasure of getting to know here. He's mentioned you a few times.

[Envy is suspicious of the reason behind that grin because he does the same thing. But, this human is friends with France and hasn't done anything overtly irritating...Envy decides that he won't be quite such a jerk as he was being before. ~~And he's still a bit flustered.~~]

Oh. You know, you could have said that instead.

_{[He does a vague shrugging motion and does not really answer that.]}

It's good to finally get to know you.

...Sure, you too.

[So unsure of how to proceed with this conversation, it's not the sort of situation Envy is used to encountering. He pauses before muttering.]

So, what did he tell you about me?

[Maybe if he knows what this guy has already heard he can get his metaphorical feet back under him. And he is curious to know what France has said.]

Nothing, really. Mostly mentioned spending time with you and looking happy about it.

_{[In essence, Cooper really doesn't know anything about him.]}
