[He has normally stuck to text so far when connecting with the others of heaven, but this particular post he feels he should do in video to get a little intimidation in, since he knows his scarred face can be a little intense to take in. He wants only serious competitors here! Too bad he forgot he had a kitten perched on his broad shoulder, lessening his intimidation factor, because she had stopped meowing inexplicably in his face a few minutes ago and curled up to fall asleep. Keen-eyed viewers will recognize the cat as Genos' Motoki.]

How many here play games? I was lucky enough to have my temple well-stocked with what I have from back home. However, it gets boring playing with yourself after awhile. [AKA: It's boring not owning people while smirking to yourself.] I haven't tried seeing if I can play against people on the Near Shore yet, but figure it would be better to play with people here, if I can.

Any good games to get from this . . . world? [Is that the word for where they've found themselves? Sure, why not.]

Get in contact with me if interested. I'm Averruncus, God of Averting Harm. But you can call me King.

[He almost ends the filming, but stops as he remembers something.]
Oh, and awhile ago, there was some god...or goddess?...whatever, of childbirth and stuff that was looking for help. I think I found a game for you, but you'll have to get in touch with me. You were anonymous.

[Here he is, in all his named glory.]

Did you really have to make this so public?

[kingengine]

I didn't know your name, did I?

[lecturehall]

There must have been a better way. Did you look into any alternatives? Now everyone will know I asked... those sorts of questions.

[mybadhabit]

You're the one who got Genos?

[Jealous? Sonic? No, never, absolutely not. Who likes that stupid toaster anyway? He likes that stupid toaster, he's fun to pick on. And he's the closest connection left to Saitama, now that he's gone]

[kingengine]

What? What does Genos-shi have to do with anything?

[What a weird question...]

[mybadhabit]

His cat's sitting on your shoulder. She may not be clawing up everything in reach, but I still know Motoki.

He wouldn't tell me who his new god is. Saitama was my rival.

[disciplineking]

[Guess who is completely unintimidated by this guy's scarred face and is just asking the important questions.]

Why is there a cat on your shoulder.

[kingengine]

[It is an important question.]

...it's my shinki's cat. She must have meowed herself out.

[disciplineking]

[Now there was an attached picture of a small tuxedo-patterned kitten, who was regally sitting on a shoulder that looked suspiciously like Hibari's. This was, of course, in response to this guy talking about his cat, and probably a bit of 'my cat is cooler than your shinki's.]

[subtract]

[Of course Add would recognize a cute and fearsome beast like Motoki the Conqueror, so there's no doubt about this guy being Genos' new god...

Which means Add should absolutely try to get in his favour. He looks kind of intimidating, but there's no way he's going to let this scary guy get between him and Genos!]

It would be my pleasure to join you at your temple sometime, keke. What sorts of games are we talking about?

[kingengine]

All sorts. But for multiplayer, fighting games, MMOs or first-person shooters would be best, obviously. Some of those will depend on getting a team of people to play against, though.

[subtract]

[... well, he can guess what those terms mean. Most of them, anyway. It doesn't seem like he was particularly versed in games in his past life.

But that won't stop him from boasting. It can't be that hard, right??]

If it's a competition that requires strategy, I'll be sure to win. But if you'd prefer something cooperative that's fine as well. You can pick.

Will Genos be there too?

[moonfang]

hmm... ya got any tekken? or some other fightin games i guess

[kingengine]

Tekken? Do you mean Rekken?

[moonfang]

is that what it's called? uh.... idk i guess so?

[miraculo]

street fighter!!!

i will own you

[Oh, he recognizes this name. She was weirdly nice to him, he'll feel slightly bad completely owning her. King shows no mercy.]

Are you sure you want to go up against me?

[spes_phthisica]

[In turn this is a video of someone lying on his back, half covered in pastel-colored ducklings, peering curiously into the camera. It's at a slightly odd angle, and keeps tilting this way and that, because Souji sure as hell isn't used to phones yet.]

What kind of games, King-sama? Like Go or something? [Yeah, he definitely thinks he means wooden board games. His generalized knowledge of things is over a century outdated, sorry.]

video until further notice

[kingengine]

[There's a brief moment where King's eyebrows raise at being greeted by those ducklings, but he's seen weirder so he just...rolls with it...]

Go? Do I look like someone who's older than 29? [He is 29, don't answer yes.] I'm talking about video games.

[redotiertwo]

what kinds of games are we talking here
i mean not that i know you like half the rest of this post seems to but if someones putting up a video game challenge im basically obliged to throw my feathers into the ring

[kingengine]

I only know a couple people. I tend to keep to myself IRL.

I play any game you could think of. But a fighting game would be best one-on-one, but it would be cool to get enough people going to play multiplayer FPS or something.

[scrap_metal]

I see you're still searching for a worthy opponent.

[ Bitterly and pouty cleaning the temple? Yes. But not because he failed so utterly in every game he tried, nooo ]

[kingengine]

No offense, Genos-shi. I just need a challenge.

You can still get good, you just have to stop breaking the controllers.]

[galactically]

Genos' precious cat!! (　＾∇＾)

[The only thing in King's post that even pings Sheryl's interest. But oh, if this man is Genos' new god, then she must introduce herself to him.]

i'm known as the goddess of music, Euterpe. but my name is really Sheryl Nome ☆

[kingengine]

She's pretty popular around here...
