Lazy Saturday [Closed to Wash's apartment and friends]

[unrecovered]

[Wash needed to take his mind off things. Unfortunately, the halfpipe wasn't available as a distraction anymore - it had actually become one of said things he didn't want to think about. So he went wandering instead, through areas both populated and not, and would up at the mall.]

[Surprise number one was that said mall had a pawn shop. Surprise number two was that said pawn shop had an old game system, complete with controllers and a few games. He doesn't have to think about it for long before forking over the cash and heading home with the system.]

[It doesn't take him long to set it up, but hell if he can actually get the hang of any of the games he bought.]

[Celestia takes up the couch by herself -- it's simply a fact of being a pony. Still, she has her legs tucked up and her wings folded in tight to take up as little space as possible, and this bothered her not at all.]

So what is the story of this game, anyway?

[unrecovered]

[Wash, as it turns out, is not very good at said game, but that doesn't stop him from trying.]

It's about a plumber trying to save a princess that's been captured by a dragon. Thing.

...It sounds really weird when I put it like that, doesn't it.

...And the mushrooms and turtles?

['Sounds' really weird? It's really weird.]
