This oneshot is loosely based off of "The Purple Game" episode. A few things are altered, but it still basically sticks with the main plot.

————————————————————————

You burst into your room, tossing your bookbag on your bed. You change into a large t-shirt and plop down into your (f/c) gaming chair, putting on your matching headphones. You excitedly kick your legs as your gaming console starts up, eager to play the new game you've heard about. You've spotted billboards all over the city lately displaying the intriguing game, so of course you decided to play it as soon as you got the chance.

Unfortunately, as soon as you open the game, you're subjected to some absolutely terrible graphics. You elect to ignore it, assuming the creators were going for a more "retro" style. The gameplay isn't too bad, being reminiscent of the Pokémon games you played when you were younger. You found that the game's configuration fit surprisingly well into the MMO format. After playing for god knows how long, you find yourself exhausted. You check the time, shocked to find that it's already one in the morning. You debate with yourself for a while before making a decision.

One more round.

Your game begins to lag. Annoyed, you head to your kitchen to grab a refreshment. As you take an energy drink out of the fridge, your hear a faint sound coming from your headphones. You put one side up to your ear.

"Uhh...hello?" A clear voice says. Shit, you forgot to unmute your mic. You scramble back to your room, hitting the corresponding button in order to talk. You unsuccessfully try to sit back in your chair, toppling it over.

"FUCK-" You yell as you fall with a loud crash. The mystery guy cracks up on the other end of the call. You slowly get up, groaning in the process. Placing your headphones back on your head, you feel your face grow hot with embarrassment.

"Pfft- sorry for laughing." His giggles fade as he continues. "You alright over there?" He asks, sounding genuinely concerned.

"Yeah, I'm fine." You say awkwardly. You finally get a chance to look at your screen, seeing the other player has you trapped in an alleyway. With nowhere to go, you try to stall for time. Looking around, you find his gamertag listed above his character.

"Bootyyyshaker9000?" You say, amused.

"What can I say, I love to dance. As for yours...Purpl3Luvr?" He reads. "Really?"

"Maybe I just love purple." You reply jokingly. He chuckles, making you melt. You can practically hear him roll his eyes. Pausing for a second, you analyze his profile. "WAIT- YOU'RE RANKED FIFTH ON THE LEADERBOARD?" You exclaim.

"Yeah- not to brag or anything." He says, definitely trying to brag. "I've been on since, uhm...about 6am I think?" His character equips his weapon. Just as you're about to be eliminated, you realize something. As much as you hate to admit it, you're impressed by him. This guy clearly knows his stuff, and he's got a pretty high rank. Not to mention, he sounds pretty damn cute. An idea pops into your mind.

"W-WAIT-" You say anxiously. He stops in his tracks. "If I may be so forward...I'd like to offer a truce."

"A truce?" He says, surprised. He hastily regains his confident front, responding in a smooth tone. "You...want to team up with me?" You worry, thinking he wouldn't want to partner with someone as low of a rank as you are. Well, low in comparison to his own. You were actually one the top ten players right now, but five is a lot higher up than nine.
