Yu Wo owns all rights to the characters of 1/2 Prince


As soon as Lan had gotten up the next morning, she had turned her computer on and gone to the homepage of Second Life to order her new set. Just for fun, she decided to look at the various kinds of sets they sold to see if there was anything worthwile. The cheapest set was, of course, the basic one. It contained the headband and the instruction manual and nothing else, only the essentials to play Second Life. Another set was called deluxe, giving you the option to order the headband and its visor in a certain color. Premium, as they called it, had everything the previous sets included and more, like coupons that had codes on them that could be redeemed for increased EXP or Drops for a certain time frame. Scrolling further, Lan stared and frowned, trying to make her mind work backwards.
A Prince set.
They had a Prince set!
Checking the description, it said that the Prince set had the headband and visor in Prince's two favorite colors, red and black. Shaking her head, Lan sighed. Anybody who actually knew Prince was well aware of the fact that his favorite color was pink. Then again, maybe it didn't market so well. Further on, the set also included two cards that were hand-signed by the infamous blood elf... thinking back, Lan remembered having to sign way too many of them. And a lifesize poster of Prince as well. And that set had sold the most, counting five million orders and increasing. Feeling a flush rising in her cheeks, Lan couldn't help but feel a bit pleased that she, or rather Prince, was so popular that everybody wanted that set. But she felt horrified, thinking how many fangirls had that set and what they were doing with the lifesize poster... Lan tried to quickly think of something else. Considering she owned the basic set, she wondered if she should get it again since she really didn't need any of the other stuff. And how narcisstic would it be of her, ordering the Prince set! Knowing herself, though, ordering a second basic set might end up with her confusing the headbands and logging in as the wrong character. So she decided to order the deluxe set and chose pink as the color for her headband. Differently colored headbands would make it easier, she hoped. The confirmation gave her the usual waddle-daddle of the delivery taking two or more days and Lan signed off, hurrying to get ready for school.
When she ran down the stairs, she almost collided with Yang and gasped loudly out of surprise and shock that he was actually up, or at least out of the house, before she was. Well, since she was running into him he wasn't that much earlier than her, but still.
"What a lovely voice you have in the morning, dear sister." Yang teased her. "So very similar to those dulcent tones you exhibited a few days ago. You did well, not bottling the anger inside and letting it out." He patted her shoulder for a second, but kept his hand there and his expression darkened, a sadistic smile stretching his lips and anger glinting in his eyes. "By the way... why did you disappear with Lolidragon earlier?"
"Yang." Lan simply said and gave him a very exasperated look. "You're talking to me. Not a fanboy."
"Still. When my potential love interest and my sister, who plays a guy, disappear together I have every right to worry."
"But not to know why. Loli and I talked about something important. That's all I'm telling you and all you need to know, got it?"
While her brother often called her the radiostation for blathering about secrets or important matters, he was just as big an offender himself. After creating Prince, she had told him that she was playing as a guy. And amongst the first things he did, after laughing at her, was to tell Zhuo that Lan was a 'tranny' character. Then again, maybe he was just jealous that the 'tranny' had been with the hottest girl in Second Life when they first met.
Both were quiet on the way to school and went to their separate seats when they entered the classroom. Being mildly aware of the chattering of her classmates around her, her mind still happy about the order and prospect of a new character, she heard snippets.
From what she heard, the class was wondering how out of it Min was going to be today. Maybe his lack of concentration would be so big that he forgot the lesson, not bothering to come in at all or that he might suddenly switch to a topic that belonged to a different subject. Some other, although very few girls, were worried, wondering what was going on with him that caused him to wigg out that much. And they all wanted to be his private nurse...
"I kinda feel bad about this now..." Lan muttered and caught Jing's interest right away. And whatever interested Jing also interested Yun. And vice-versa.
"Bad about what? Telling Lolidragon and everybody else off?" the girl asked, tightening her curly pigtails with a butterfly clip.
"No... well, a bit. But I meant about Gui. If I had known my absence would make him lose it this much..." Lan answered. "I hope he pulled himself together by now."
"You were online yesterday, right? So he should be fine." Yun guess and shrugged his shoulders, straightening up because Min had just entered the room. Min stood at the desk for a minute and let his eyes wander over the students in the room, a question dimly burning in his eyes.
"Good morning." he said and gave them all a smile that was more dazzling than any he had given them over the last week and several girls swooned in their seats. Lan was slightly affected as well, feeling her bishie-senses tingling and silently cursed Min for doing one of those smiles in school. He knew how troublesome they were! She hadn't seen them that often herself, the last time was when she had told Gui to use one for the audience at the Adventurer's Tournament, to show up that damn Phoenix Team and what it really meant to be a bishie. And then Yu Lian had said how Wolf was the most handsome man of the bunch...
Giggling silently, Lan tried to pry her thoughts away from those times and concentrate on the literature history Min was teaching just then.


Prince was humming to himself, shuffling the papers spread out in front of him and let his eyes skim over each for a minute or two. With the current cutbacks, Infinite City was running at low speed on a lot of things and would remain this way for some months until the expansion was done, like a sauce left simmering on the backburner for hours to intensify the flavor. Realizing that he was getting hungry and mixing up food with work again, Prince decided to finish this quickly and then head to the restaurant and grab something to bite... maybe borscht. He had a sudden craving for it for some reason...
Looking at the papers regarding security, the elf almost burst out laughing when he saw what had happened. Wolf had gotten a temporary solution for the problem and had asked Sunshine and Kenshin and a few others to take over for now, promising to pay whatever he could. But he had been declined by all of them. Sunshine and Kenshin didn't care for money and Fairsky, who was always with Sunshine on his patrols, didn't need it. Cold Fox, who barely ever left Kenshin's side, refused it as well. What Prince could gather from the reports when it came to Kenshin and Cold Fox' turns, they all consisted of short lists of people 'getting annoying' and 'shutting up when confronted'.
As long as the problem was solved, he didn't care how Cold Fox and Kenshin might confront people...
Although once the concerts started, Sunshine and Fairsky would be travelling and unavailable for that job. Maybe Kenshin, too, if he decided to come along. Okay and Cold Fox, too. Then again, Kenshin always looked very bored during the concerts... but he always looked bored. Maybe he wouldn't want to travel this time. Prince stood up and started sorting the papers into their respective piles again when he heard the door opening behind him and somebody entering.
"Your Highness!" Gui's voice chirped happily, seeing his beloved elf online after hearing that he would be online less from now on.
"Morning, Gui!" Prince chirped back, turning towards the bard and giving him a smile that stretched from one ear to the next. Gui, having been approaching the elf, stopped in his tracks and looked at him surprised for a second before he seemed to relax, a slight blush on his cheeks.
"Your Highness is more beautiful today than ever. You are positively glowing. Did something good happen?" he asked.
"Yeah, your lesson made sense again. Puts me into a good mood." Prince admitted and turned towards the papers again. A shadow fleeted across Gui's face, then it disappeared a second later and he looked rather cautiously and curious at the elf, wondering if this opportunity was the best to ask.
"Prince, about class..."
"By the way, did you know that there's a Second Life: Prince set?" the elf asked, not realizing he was interrupting the bard who seemed to have lost all courage.
"Of course I knew." Gui admitted and saw Prince turn towards him suddenly, his face filled with horror and then switching to one full of caution.
"Please tell me you're not one of those who bought it... Gui? You didn't, right?" Prince wondered, hoping against hope that he used a different one. Instead of consoling the elf with those words, Gui merely looked to the side and a treacherous blush lay on his cheeks for a second.
"Oh god..." Prince sighed heavily and hid his beetred face in his hands. "...what about the poster and the cards?"
"Mh? The cards are in a drawer of my desk. And the poster hangs on one of the walls. Why do you ask?"
"No reason...!" the elf said fast with a cough, avoiding to look at Gui.
Prince didn't dare tell him. For all Prince knew, hundreds of his fangirls might've bought that set and were using the lifesize post of Prince to create them, those handmade Hug Pillows... and somehow, a tiny part of Prince's brain, had been wondering and worried if Gui had the set and used the poster in such a manner.
"Really?" Gui wondered and tried to see Prince's hidden face, but he kept averting his eyes.
"Prince, thank god you're online!" Lolidragon suddenly called from the doorway and waved him over. "It's about the concert. Come on."
The elf nodded and rushed over, giving a short wave to Gui and was grateful to get away just in time.
"Prince, I had a question regarding the class...!" Gui called after him.
"Later...!" Prince called back and hurried away with Lolidragon, his face still fiery red. And Lolidragon's smirking and nudging and inquiries weren't helping. Knowing that he wouldn't tell her, the thief just shrugged her shoulders and lead the way through several rooms of the castle, finally stopping at a door that looked like any other and opened it, entering the room with Prince. Ice Phoenix and Fairsky were already in the room, pushing racks full of costumes around the room. Frowning, Prince remembered the last meeting really well and was sure that there was no mention of new clothes.
"We are still going with reusing the old costumes, right?" he asked, wondering if they had scraped some money off of Yu Lian for at least one new outfit, so that Ice Phoenix wouldn't keep looking at him like she wanted to bite his head off for ruining a good business opportunity. Although he didn't understand why, he'd much prefer people came to the concerts to listen to him instead of looking at his clothes.
"Yeah, we are." Lolidragon told him and held up the measuring tape. "But we gotta make sure they still fit." She grinned and earned a look from Prince, but he obliged and let her take his measurements again. He kept insisting that he wasn't going to grow anymore and got just plain ignored.
After Lolidragon wrote the measurements down and compared them to the old one, she pointed to a rack to the left of Fairsky and the girl handed one to Prince.
"If there are no changes in the measurements, they'll fit." Prince told the thief, but she just waved him off and both knew he just didn't want to change. Rolling his eyes, Prince grabbed the measuring tape and proceeded to tie Lolidragon's ankles and wrists together, ignoring her protests.
"Safety reasons, you know that." he said when he finished and threw the costume over his shoulder, walking to the back of the room filled with racks and stuff, covered with cloth to create a makeshift cabin to dress and undress in.
"Oh sure, tie me up but not Ice Phoenix or Fairsky! Totally fair." Lolidragon called after him, wriggling to get free of the tape.
"You're the worst of the bunch. Ice Phoenix is second to that... and since Fairsky is so obsessed with Sunshine now, I don't need to worry about her at all." It was barely a minute later that Prince emerged from the chaos of the back of the room in one of his old costumes from a previous concert. The entire outfit was black and frayed at the seams, making it look like clothes about as old as Prince was himself and the sleeveless coat almost dragged on the floor.
"I told you, I don't grow anymore and hence the clothes will fit just fine." the elf said and Lolidragon just stuck her nose into the air, still confined by the tape.
"There were minimal changes." she retorted and let her eyes wander over Prince's body, hovering somewhere around his groin area.
"Get your eyes away from there." Prince hissed and turned to head back to change again. "This fit, the rest will fit, got it? Besides, what about the others, don't you have to check if their clothes still fit?"
"We already took care of everyone else. You're the last cause your outfit changes so often." Lolidragon explained and finally got herself free.
A clatter came from the back and Prince stopped in his tracks to the changing cabin. He didn't trust his ears for a second and felt like turning back, making Lolidragon say that to his face so that he knew she wasn't yanking his chain.
"Are you telling me that you had Wicked and Gui in here, changing, and you didn't tell me? Urgh!" Prince grumbled frustrated and changed in the cabin at high speed, leaving the room afterwards and three amused and confused girls behind. And he almost ran into Gui in the hall.
"What are you doing here?" Prince asked since he had left Gui in the meeting hall just a few minutes ago.
"I had a question, remember? And when Lolidragon called you over, I figured what it was about and decided to wait for you." the bard explained, then looked at the door rather questioningly. "I thought you'd take much longer than this."
"Yeah, well... anyway, your question?"
"Ah, yes, it was regarding class. But also..." Gui hesitated for a second and then looked rather amused. "Were you worried about me buying the Prince set?"
"What, no, no, of course not!" Prince answered immediately and blushed. "I was just worried... no, I mean thinking... no, um... I was just thinking, if you have a poster and cards from me in your home, why you become so weird when I'm absent from Second Life."
Gui stared at Prince for a few seconds and then grinned, finally bursting into a series of chuckles he was trying to contain.
"Prince, those are mere things. I'm not happy because I can see you in Second Life, it's your personality that I miss when you're gone." he explained, still amused.
"I-I see..." the elf mumbled, feeling his face heating up and stared at the ground. He wondered if he should take that as a compliment, but mostly noticed that Gui was still chuckling and seemed to have been distracted enough to not ask Prince the question regarding class right then.
Prince must've dodged a bullet there.


Lan tore through half the apartment from the kitchen to the door when the bell rang. Skidding to a halt at the door, she opened it and saw the delivery man, the large package tucked under one arm and the form in his free hand. Plopping her namestamp where he needed it and getting the box handed over to her, the delivery man left and Lan closed the door again. She took a minute to proudly look at the black package with the Second Life logo printed on it, then remembered Lolidragon's various conditions... how was she supposed to call Lolidragon now? Whenever she had been online as Prince up to now, never had Lolidragon given her a note, told her the phone number in a general conversation or over PM. It's like she had completely forgotten about it.
"Oh well." Lan sighed and thought, worst case scenario, she'd just log on as Prince and check if Lolidragon was online. And if she was, tell her to go into GM-Mode, so she could create Lan's new character who then had to log off and log on with the new headband... Lan's head was already spinning.
Luckily, Yang was out doing something with Zhuo, so Lan didn't have to hide the box in any way or worry about him finding out. Running into her room, she opened the box and saw her custom-colored pink headband with fitting visor in one bag, the instruction manual somewhere underneath, then she saw the note. A white note was taped on top of the bag containing the headband.
'Call me when you want to create your character' it said and below that was a phone number written. Now being a better time than any, Lan grabbed her cellphone and punched in the phone number and waited for the call to be taken.
"Yep?" a voice answered and although she hadn't heard it in real life ever before, Lan immediately recognized Lolidragon's voice.
"It's me. I want to create the character as soon as possible." Lan said.
"Good. Give me five minutes to log on as a GM and then log on." she answered and hung up.
Putting the phone away, Lan felt excited and wished she could start right away, but decided to use the five minutes by unpacking the headband, trying it on and adjusting the straps so it fit comfortably. And then she spent the next four minutes sitting on her bed, tapping her legs impatiently, waiting for time to pass so she could finally do things with the new set. When finally, finally, the minutes passed and she could log on,
Lan lay down in bed and turned the headband on.


She found herself in the character creation room, with its metall floor and walls that were so dark it looked like she was standing on thin air. Looking around, the place lit up a little more and she saw the high up chair in which the GM sat that overlooked the character creation, recognizing Lolidragon despite the very different outfit and the large helmet obscuring most of her face.
"Hey, Loli." Lan said.
"Hello and welcome to Second Life, a virtual reality game with a realism setting of 99%." GM-Lolidragon said, sounding like a recorded message. "Before proceeding..."
"Wait. Do I have to listen to this again? I already know it." the girl asked, weirded out by the wall of text she was going to receive.
"Every player gets only one character, so they would only hear it once." the other replied simply. "What with you getting a second character, we had to alter a few things so the system wouldn't recognize you as already having a character. Short form, yes, you do have to hear this."
Lan sighed and hung her head, motioning for Lolidragon to proceed with the obligatory talk.
"Before proceeding into the game, you must create your character. Please be aware that every player can only have one character," she continued, finding her words rather ironic just then. "who will share your looks but can be altered to a certain extent. Start with the race. Second Life has a variety of races, ranging from humans to elves and angelics, shape-shifters and demons, which come in several sub-races." As she was telling her this, various holograms appeared, portraying the many races and species found in Second Life. Cocking her head from one side to another, Lan contemplated her decision.
Up till Second Life, she had always chosen human as her race since she barely found any difference between it and other races. Prince had been turned into an elf, against her decision because elf Prince looked hotter than human Prince, according to Lolidragon back then... and she had been right, Lan had to agree with her there.
But by now, Lan had to admit to herself that she had rather fallen in love with the long pointy ears of elves. Speaking of, Wicked was a dark elf and Gui a demon...
"Can I see myself as a demonic elf? Or whatever race Gui picked." Lan asked and smoke poofed in front of her several times, showing various holograms.
"The elven demon race includes the regular form, as well as the Dark Elf and various other forms." Lolidragon told her, pointing to the holograms. All of them were basically built like Lan with pointy ears. The one right in front of her looked barely any different, but the one to her left had a tanned skin.
And she stared dumbstruck at the example form to her right.
The skin was of a midnight blue kind of color, but it had a sheen of purple on it, and a white swirly pattern was running up on the legs and arms, even on one side of the face. The hair was turned white, the eyes were just white sockets and the ears seemed to be slightly spiked in form.
"Oh... wow..." the girl finally said and wondered for a second what kind of sub-species this was. And somehow she wondered if, when he created his character, Gui had been shown an example like this as well. "Um... no demon race. Just elf, I guess." The examples of Lan in the various demon races disappeared, being replaced by holograms of her in elven form. Aside from the elf Lan with light skin and the one with dark skin, being the Dark Elf example, there was one with ears that seemed even longer and pointier than the others, heading up from the head rather than outwards. It didn't look too different from others, but it had two thin green lines painted on the cheekbones and some sort of symbol on the back of the left hand.
"The elf race is separated into the light and dark elf race, as well as the elementary kinds. What you see on your left is the example of the Wind Elf, an elf with a high affinity for speed and a natural ability to use spells that focus around the element of wind. It has a high resistances to wind attacks, but suffers greater damage from earth-based attacks. In similar fashion, the other elemental elves are the same, varying in their elemental spirits, with fire weak against water and vice-versa. And I'm sorry, Lan, but I am obligated to say this to any new player..." Lolidragon admitted. "Prince is of the elven race, with a strong affinity to fire attacks but does not belong to the elemental elven race. He is a normal elf."
Lan gave Lolidragon a look, feeling a kind of resentment towards the company, telling every new player what the spokesperson and most admired player was, probably causing hundreds or even thousand of new players to pick the elf race so they could be 'just like Prince'. Shaking her head and sighing, Lan pointed at the elf that was just like the one Prince was. Not because she cared about that, but because she rather liked the look of it.
All holograms showing examples of the various races disappeared except the one Lan had chosen which remained.
"While your character will share your looks, you can choose to customize your appearance to a certain extent."
"Hair- and eyecolor, right?" Lan asked.
"Amongst other things." Lolidragon answered.
"Hmmm..." Lan went. Actually, a thought immediately rushed through her head. "...can I see myself with Prince's coloring? Just to see what it looks like." And she almost burst out laughing, seeing her elf-self with white hair and red eyes. So this was what a female Prince would look like, Lan thought and giggled, trying to stop herself. But it just looked so weird. She knew she was Prince and all, knew that Prince would look like this had she chosen that coloring back then, not to mention playing as a girl. Suppressing anymore giggles, Lan waved her hand dismissively.
"Nah, just darken my hair a bit and leave the eyes brown, too." she told Lolidragon and it was done. The elf Lan now had a darker shade of brown hair, almost heading into the brown-black area, that reached halfway down her back. "Hm... what else can I change?"
"Well, bald players can choose to have a set of hair again." Lolidragon admitted, shrugging her shoulders. "Weight distribution... like, make fat players thin."
"Wow..." the girl went, surprised at how players might really look different from their real life self. "So... like... what about... endowment?"
"Huh?"
"Just asking! Because, you know, some of the female players I saw had really big breasts. Okay, Rose's really are that big, but, like, with you..."
"What!" Lolidragon snapped. Lan quickly waved her arms, desperate to explain herself.
"Ah, well, yours are really big and I was just wondering if they're real or if there really is an option to increase breast size!" Lan babbled. "...Is there?"
"You want your breasts bigger?" the GM asked, slumping her shoulders with exhaustion.
"...please. If possible."
Lolidragon shrugged her shoulders and put in some commands, changing Lan's gaming figure to gain an entire cupsize in a second. Lan stared a bit, feeling a mix of happiness over having them now, but also of sadness over not having them in real life. The setting was saved.
"Which continent do you want your character to start out on?" Lolidragon continued. "Second Life has a total of five continents, each with their own theme, cities and available dungeons. You can pick the East, South, West, North and Central Continent. Each continent is led by an Overlord... Prince rules the central one."
"How often will Prince still be mentioned during character creation?" Lan asked impatiently.
"Depending on your choice, a few or several more times..."
"What the hell..." Lan sighed. "I want to start on the Central Continent."
Lolidragon cocked her head to the side, staring intently at Lan.
"Are you sure? Aside from us currently going through an economical crisis, the inns are full up... and there's a really high chance you'll run into us."
"Hey, I may not like the job of Overlord, but I still love the central continent very much. I don't know the other ones, except the eastern one... and if I picked that, that stupid peacock would bother me all the time. Besides..." she huffed, looking superior. "Don't PMs not work cross-continentially?"
"Touché." Lolidragon admitted. "But I would still get a hold of you somehow. Are you sure you want to be on the central continent?"
"Yes." Lan said and the system registered the starting point of her character. She waited for the naming screen to pop up.
"Please choose your job next." Lolidragon said instead. "Second Life contains a variety of job classes with their own advantages, as well as disadvantages, equipment and abilities that can be used. Please be aware that your starting parameters will be determined at random upon your first log-in."
"Job? Pick my job? Now?" Lan wondered. Trying to figure it out, she scratched her head and frowned. "Don't I become a Novice first, level and do the job change?"
Lolidragon actually lifted the visor of her helmet to give her a weird look.
"You didn't read the instruction manual, did you?"
"I didn't read it the first time around, so why would I read it this time?"
"That thing was renewed..." Lolidragon sighed, shaking her head. "We decided to obliterate the Novice class entirely. With the way things are running now, players pick what job class they want to play and enter the game from the beginning in said class, with a starting weapon and minor equipment for some help. It gives players a chance to get to know the class better from the start, because we had instances where some players had trouble fighting in the game, because they didn't know their class that well or even what weapon and armor they could equip."
Lan nodded at that information. Sounded good, giving everybody a little heads up about their chosen job class and a little help on the side.
Thinking of what job she was going to choose, she hesitated. She loved being a warrior. Playing as Prince had shown her the fun of lifting a sword,slashing at enemies and generally getting covered in blood, sweat and guts and the rush of pride when monsters disappeared that she had killed herself. But knowing herself, if she chose warrior again, she might end up going crazy like she originally did as Prince... she might be called the other Blood Elf.
Or the Blood Queen and people would start calling her and Prince the Blood Couple.
"Well, wouldn't the fangirls be happy about that...!" Lan sighed out loud, earning a confused look from Lolidragon. "Nothing..."
Maybe she should pick being a mage then. She had played mages in the past a lot. She liked being in the backrow, attacking from afar, causing monsters to die without them knowing what had hit them. And even if she was confronted by some aggressive monsters that attacked first, she always laid down a firewall around herself and watched, laughing, how they just kept walking into the firewall, taking their HP off bit by bit and dying.
Leveling as a mage was so easy.
"Please view the list of available job classes." Lolidragon said and a white box popped up in front of Lan, listing the various classes and information about them. Staring at the long list, she skimmed at some names and frowned, finally straightening up. Leaning down again, she read some of the names one more time, then stood straight and looked up at Lolidragon.
"Alchemist? Ninja? And what are these Rune Knights and all the other classes? They weren't there last time." she said, demanding information.
"Of course they weren't!" Lolidragon sighed exhausted and slid in her seat. "With the various patches, we also included new job classes for more variety. That's also why the Novice class was taken out. All the information about the new classes was in the instruction manual..."
Lan cursed herself, thinking that she should've taken a peek into that thing after all.
"Can I look at the short information list of the classes?" she asked and Lolidragon nodded. The white box changed and was more laid out, easier to digest.

Lan held her head, which was swimming with information about the new and old classes. Although she felt angry at the company for mentioning Prince again, wondering how many warriors had been made since then. Particularly elven warriors who fought with swords and learn skills that have to do with fire. Somehow, she felt like a cheap sell-out regarding Prince. Could it count as selling out? Maybe, she wasn't sure. But her current problem was choosing a class. Writing off warrior and mage, to protect her identity as Prince and lack of fun, respectively, she looked at the newer classes. Somehow the ninja sounded like a lot of fun. But she remembered other games she had played that also had ninja classes, and she always heard the ones with that class complain about how expensive it was. And she tended to lose her money, always getting lost on ferries.
Maybe the alchemist was a good choice then, she could easily replenish the money she lost then.
"Mh... Lancer. I want to be a Lancer." Lan decided and watched as her elf-self had the class Lancer chosen and the clothes changed. She now wore a halter top that showed her midriff, sleeves that started at her upper arm and flared out, slit all the way up. The pants were the same, slit until midway up the thighs so she could move easier in them and revealing her legs caped in indigo nylons with high heeled shoes on her feet. The whole outfit was white with a purple hem and Lan instantly fell in love with it. It was sporty, easy to move in and just a little bit sexy.
"Please insert your character's name." Lolidragon told her, happy to approach the end of this thing. A white naming screen box popped up in front of Lan.
"...Xiao Lan." she said and the name appeared... and after a few seconds, the system declared that the name wasn't taken yet.
(System Announcement: Player 'Xiao Lan' has been registered.)
"We're done?" Lan asked excitedly, bouncing in place and ready to enter the game.
"Yes. Oh god, this took an hour..." Lolidragon muttered, looking at her watch. "Oh! Um... Lan...?"
"What?" she asked and saw Lolidragon slapping her hands together apologetically.
"Could you log in as Prince? There was this discussion about the tour going on earlier where we need you."
"What!" Lan gasped and groaned, annoyed that she had to wait again before she could finally enter the game and play as her new character.
Stupid conditions.
