Inside The Game

My pathetic attempt at humor. Inspired by the one skit where Lloyd complains about not having a quick jump option. If you think I own anything your off your rocker and out of the province entirely. I own nothing

Inside The game

I was talking to Genis and Raine about not having the quick jump for all those damned stairs and then I find out that they have no idea about these people that control everything we do. It's sort of creepy actually. Well, they control us most of the time, so I guess I shouldn't say all, but it still feels very invasive.

I was going to ask dad… Kratos about it, but I sort of forgot until after I'd sent him to Derris Kharlan… What? After Mithos you would too!

Well, I went asking around after and found that I was the only one who knows about these creepy people. Maybe I'm going crazy…. No, every time we went through those sewers we would just appear at the other side. Same went for the forest at the Elvin village. Nobody else seemed to think it was weird though…

Hey!

Whoever likes controlling me isn't very good at it…

They keep moving me in the complete opposite direction of the enemy…

Don't butcher my double demon fang like that!

The weirdest part is the end of the game. We all sort of continued on with our lives, but I don't even know what I named the great seed! Every time someone says it, it blurs until I have no idea what they said.

This is so not fair!

Also, whoever is controlling us like this likes making fun of us. We were at the most serious part of the game (don't ask me how I know, I've accepted this long ago) and Regal was dresses up in his cook's outfit. Nobody else noticed, so I did my best not to laugh, though it was seriously hard. He was dressed up as a cook! For the most dramatic point in the entire game!

'Knowing Lloyd, he'll probably get bored of it right away…'

I'm getting random thoughts again… Hey, wait a minute! I do not get bored that easily! Do I?

Okay, so maybe I do, but I do know that these people are getting a serious laugh out of this… (Talking about Regal's outfit at the end)

I know my dad got controlled a lot during the game, and Zelos and Presea a couple times, just by the way they changed fighting styles sometimes. I got controlled the entire time though. Lucky me…

They still didn't know what I was talking about though.

I had suspicions after the end though, after I started putting the pieces together after everything was done.

Kratos came in way stronger than us, but we all tripled that by the end of the game. The math doesn't add up (No, I did not ask Genis to help me this time!). Kratos also didn't 'learn' Judgment until the very end. Considering he's had four thousand years to get stronger, he was pretty weak in the beginning.

Maybe he was holding back…. Hmmm…

Going back to what we're here for, I know that they didn't watch us sleep or anything, just by the way I don't remember ever going to sleep. Approach bed, time jump; suddenly be facing the other way feeling very refreshed.

I have a serious bone to pick with these people though. I know for a fact that they chose to kill off Zelos just to have Da- Kratos back in the party. How dare they kill off my friend! I was glad to have Kratos back too, but did they have to kill my friend?

People have no respect! We're people too you know!

Ah, well. At least we didn't get a single 'game over' screen this time. I hate them. We all get stuck in this black room with absolutely nothing in it until the game restarts. Nobody does anything, they just sit there, really creepy actually.

This time was a multiplayer, so there was always two of us being controlled. I'm pretty sure it was usually Kratos or me. I was getting sick of single player anyways… this'll be the seventh time the one has played this, but only the first for the person controlling me. (Which would explain why they were so bad at playing me)

How do I know this? I have no freaking clue, and it's driving me nuts!

The thoughts'll just drift through my head and suddenly they will start making sense. I was going to ask the professor about it, but then decided not to (for obvious reasons).

Why do I keep making the same mistakes if I know I've done this entire thing several times? I already told you, I'm being controlled! I don't have a choice in the matter!

It really sucks you know? I don't get to live my own life until after the damn game ends! And even then that's only until the next time these people decide to replay the game.

I could point out everything on my huge list of things that annoy me about this, but that would take forever, and it would probably get boring before long…

The graphics (We're one step above 2-D! It's really awkward sometimes), the occasional scream (Which were absolutely terrible. Mine was the only half decent one, and, no offense to Presea, but I think hers was probably the worst), the dubbing on a lot of us (excluding myself of course- Jeez, I sound like Zelos… poor dead Zelos…), the unrealism (meaning that they needed to add in more anime scenes), the way they mocked me a lot… (Grrr… I am not stupid!)

Yup, the list goes on and on, but I'm bored.

Oooh look, a bird…

End

Ehehe… forgive me if that was out of character. I tried to cut down on the big words as much as possible seeing as it was Lloyd, but I kept having to go through again and again to make sure he stayed the way he was supposed to be.

My first real attempt at humor. I usually go for the general type story (when I'm writing. Reading is a whole different story. Humor all the way!), but I figured that I might try my hand at the funnies.

When I first played the game that one skit kept bugging at me…. And bugging at me… until I had to write something. (I would have played it more as well… If I owned it… I really hate not owning it…)

I'm not the greatest at gaming (seeing as how the only gaming system we own is several computers), but I'm still the best in my house (Dad is about my level, maybe a little better, depending on the game.) so I made a few jabs at my playing ability in there…

Lloyd's my favorite character, but I may have gone overboard in trying to keep him in character..

Let's not forget Kratos… The almighty Kratos… Bow before the Kratos…

I should do one of these for Kratos…. But I don't know what I would put….

I hate vague ideas, they can be great ideas, but they're not solid enough to put in writing…
