The tiger grinned at her and said, "Hey, I brought my Ps4 over, I figured you might want to play a little while." Amy smiled back, "You know me so well." She stepped out of the house and walked with Griff to his car. She watched as he leaned into the driver's side and pulled out a small gaming system wrapped in a bundle of cords. The lynx lead the way back into the house, into the living room. Her medium-sized tv sat at the far end of the room, smack in front of the brown fabric couch. Griff headed over to the tv and started to plug in the system, resting the console on the coffee table. Amy grabbed the two controllers and sat on the couch, turning on the tv as she went. Griff finished plugging in the console and dropped onto the couch beside Amy. She turned and handed him one of the controllers.

She turned on the console with her own controller and scrolled through the games, trying to decide what she wanted to play. She looked over at Griff. "Mercenary Kings or PvZ Garden Warfare?" Griff scratched at his chin thoughtfully. "Hmmm... PvZ sounds good. I'm not really in the mood for Mercenary Kings." Amy nodded and booted up the game. As she clicked on the co-op button she asked Griff, "How do you know me so well? We haven't known each other that long but it's like we've been friends forever." Griff shrugged as he picked his plant of choice, the classic Peashooter. "I came into your life at the point where you just really needed someone to comfort you. You opened up a bit and let me get to know you. As for why I can read your emotions so well, I don't know. Always been like that I guess." Amy pondered that as she picked her own favorite, the Chomper. "Hm. Guess so. You ready to own those zombies?" She grinned at the tiger, waiting for the answer. He smiled happily back. "Born ready, sweetheart."
