You walked into the living room, having just reached the bottom of the stairs. You soon spotted your mom on the couch, and you go over. You notice that she has a package on her lap. You wonder if it's the package with your game in it....
"So, what's up?", you ask her, eagerly awaiting her response.
"Not much. I just wanted to give you this. It is YOUR package, after all.", she states, handing you the box.
You look at the label, just to be sure. Sure enough, it is your package. You finally had the game. You and your friends could finally play it together. You can't help but smile at the thought. You give your mom a hug.
"Thank you."
Your mom hugs you back, smiling as she answers with, "You're welcome, dear. Now go and have some fun with your friends."
She pulls back from the hug, and so do you, giving her one last smile before heading back upstairs with the box. You set the box down beside your laptop, and you hop back onto Pesterchum. You debate on who to message first about the good news. You decide that since SB was the first to know that you were home, while CW was the last to know, that you'll tell CW first.

You giggle a little at his enthusiasm.

And with that, you click on the final friend's chumhandle.

And with that, you open the box. Inside are two envelopes with a disc in each one of them. You pick them up to observe them. One of the discs was labelled "Sburb: Client Disc", while the other one was labelled "Sburb: Host Disc."
You decided to put the Host Disc in your laptop, first, and then waited for it to install. After that was finished, you took the disc out before putting the Client Disc in and waiting for that to install, as well. You couldn't wait to see what fun the game had to bring to you and your friends.
