You wouldn't be the type to brag about how weirdly good you were at some of the games, but it would be a lie to say that the idea of showing your friends the number one spot you hold in most of them didn't bring a smile to your face whenever you would dream up the scenario. Week after week you made sure to uphold this streak you had going, ensuring that you remained at the top, beating anyone if they managed to get over your score. It was never particularly difficult to do such, save for a few rare occasions, but perhaps you were starting to get a little too confident with your abilities. "What the hell...?!" you stared wide-eyed at the screen before you. Not only were you no longer in the number one spot, but you had been practically eviscerated by this "Kodzuken" person's score. Kozume Kenma was someone you never had any intentions of entangling with. That is, at first you didn't, but of course one simply cannot stay away from the other when you accidentally end up in a rivalry over your favorite arcade game. _____ I posted this on my Ao3, so I figured it should be here too.
