Anzu (Shinsou Hitoshi x BNHA OC)

Sitting on a bean bag chair on the living room, a bag of chips to her side and a bottle of soda at her side, the girl ideally chewed on the salty snack as the remote in her hands was roughly trashed against.

Next to her sat another being around her own age, his own much more tired eyes watching as she tried to get past this one boss again. The last three times proving to not be in her favor, but he watched despite this. The noises of frustration she made each time she was hit or died were entertainment enough for him.

"He's going to cut you in half with his axe again." Shinsou smirked in anticipation as the boss did exactly that a moment later.

Anzu let out a quick but high pitched cry, throwing the game controller onto the ground next to her as her character's health hit zero and the screen went to black. Her lips puffing out and her eye twitching at the idea of looking like such a useless noob in front of Shinsou of all people.

Though... he admitted to not being fond of video games... so he might believe her when and if she tells him that this boss, in particular, was rather hard to beat. But then again... this was Shinsou Hitoshi. If he wasn't being a cynical little shit, then he must have been replaced or smacked so hard on the head that he forgot who he was.

"Shut up....." She groaned, rolling her head back until she was glancing at the ceiling with an annoyed face. "This boss is hard as hell..."

"Maybe you just need more practice." Shinsou suggested, brow rising as he watched his friend suddenly turn to face him with a look of shock. Her eyes wide and her mouth agape like Shinsou had just admitted to her that he was the Hero Killer Stain himself.

"G-get better?!" She practically screamed her long hair further getting messier and messier from hos fast she had moved. "Dark Souls isn't a game you just- just! Just get better at Shinsou! It's supposed to make you as frustrated and feel as pained as your character! It's a one of a kind game experience that allows players to truly struggle and not simply play to grind achievements or anything!"

Shinsou blinked a few times, nodding slowly along as the girl further explained the experience and game mechanics behind the gruesome game, his thoughts trying to remain focus on her, but eventually her words were even putting him to sleep.

Maybe if he hadn't stayed up all hours of the night he'd be able to pay better attention to those around him. Then again, he never slept in general... so maybe feeling so sleepy right now was a good sign that he might actually be able to sleep tonight. But then again, Anzu was the one putting him to sleep.

His eyes began to drop slowly, but his willpower seemed to still be hanging on. His head snapping back up and making him try to focus on his friend speaking. But as he laid his head back onto the couch, he was trying to convince himself...that his mind telling him he was still listening but his body knew better. And as he finally nodded to whatever Anzu had just said, he shut his eyes completely, the sounds of her voice becoming distant and far away as she continued to rant.

It was like a perfect lullaby to him. Her soft voice speaking with such passion and spirit, every so often making herself chuckle at something she had said that he found funny. Her little laugh always bringing a certain calmness over him, like what a cool breeze does for your body on a boiling hot day.

And then sooner than he knew it, her voice was completely gone, but he was still feeling that emotion buried in his heart and head, the sensation spreading all over his being as he floated from the realm of consciousness to unconsciousness. The realm of his dreams welcoming him back after such a long period of absence.

He spent quite a long time in this place, allowing and feeling as if he was here to simply recharge his body. Mind wandering from one dream to another, odd occurrences and strange desires being normal in this place. His mind wandering through every single piece of information his normal and awake self would never dwell on. But in this place where time had no construct, nor did reality... Shinsou explored his inner thoughts and wants to the tea.
