It is mid-June 2017 and it has been a long while since Jack and Mark had met. They both had forgotten all of what happened that night and have become very internet famous. Mark had created the alias Markiplier, quickly becoming one of the most famous and popular gaming channels. He had recently moved to LA and was living with some of his friends he made over YouTube. Jack was under the alias JackSepticEye, not finding his fame more recently. He still lived in Ireland but is now able to go to conventions and meet friends as result of his fame. Jack and Mark have become very close friends and love making videos together, constantly complimenting each other's work. Yet they somehow have no memory of each other from before.

Jack, Mark, and some of their friends were playing games simply for fun, but Jack had decided to record it. "Top o' the mornin' to ye laddies! My name's JackSepticEye and welcome back to round 2 of Cards Against Humanity!" Jack shouted his video's intro, "I'm here again with Mark, Felix, Wade, and Ken." The video faded right into the group playing the online version of that game. They had played a few rounds talking about random things while doing so.

"Oh. That's right! Vidcon isn't that far away is it?" Jack said waiting for everyone to play their cards. He was the "Card Czar" and the prompt read "The most controversial game at PAX this year is an 8-bit indie platformer about _ (Blank)" causing him to think about Vidcon for some reason.

"Are you finally planning on coming this year Jack?" Ken asked obviously after playing his card due to the fact he snickered a bit before speaking. Mark started laughing uncontrollably which made everyone else to start laughing. Ken's question was ignored, but none of them seemed to really care for the answer.

"You okay there Mark?" Felix asked trying not to laugh anymore but failing miserably. He was the last one to play his card which caused all of the other cards to turn over. They all took a short moment to read through all the choices while Mark was still giggling about the card he played.

Jack started reading the cards out loud to see how they fit into the blank. He got to the last one and Mark lost it again as the Irishman read it. "The most controversial game at PAX this year is an 8-bit indie platformer about a fully-dressed female videogame character" Jack couldn't hold it together and started laughing as he finished reading the card. Without saying anything else Jack clicked that card and picked it as the winner.

"Yeah!" Mark shouted between laughs seeing that he won the point. Wade was losing it more than anyone else which caused Jack and Mark to continue laughing longer than they probably should.

It took a moment for all of them to stop laughing, but the game continued on. "I have no idea why that was so funny." Wade said seeing he was the "Card Czar," so he didn't have to play a card. They all tried to take a moment to catch their breath before continuing the round.

"You know you never answered my question Jack." Ken said after playing his card. The other guys chuckled slightly at Ken's very fakey sad tone. Since Jack took a moment to answer, Ken decided to repeat his question. "Are you going to Vidcon this year?"

"It's not my fault since Mark was the one that distracted everyone." Jack laughed as Mark tried to interject a defense which was ignored. The Irishman took a quick moment to play his card before speaking again. "I'm going this year. I'm actually leaving tomorrow."

"Excited to see Chica again?" Mark asked completely out of nowhere. Ken and Felix made some confused laughs at the oddness of the question.

"Of course I am! I bet you can't wait to have three extra people in your house." Jack and Wade both chuckled lightly knowing what was happening this weekend. The other guys finally figured out what they were talking about and made sounds of understanding.

"It's only two. Bob can't come for some reason." Mark said finally playing his card for the round. Jack and Wade "aww"d from the news they just received.

The recording ended a few rounds later right after Wade of all people won the game. After everything was closed down, Jack sighed and looked around his bedroom. He saw his open suitcase lying on his bed with all of his stuff hanging out of the bag.

Jack moved over to it and decided to set everything up since he had to leave early in the morning. It didn't take long for him to be packed and alarm to be set. His eyes scanned over his phone to check the time which read 9 pm. Realizing he wasn't going to get anywhere near 8 hours of sleep anymore, Jack begrudgingly got ready for bed even though it felt too early.

*The Next Morning*

Mark woke up, slightly later than normal, to knocking on his front door. He groggily walked out into the living room to see Ryan already opening the door. Matt joined Mark looking over to see Wade entering the house carrying a suitcase.

"Were you still in bed?" Wade asked looking over at Mark to see him still in his pajamas. Mark just grumbled an excuse before heading back to his room and changing out of his extremely comfortable clothes.

When he left his bedroom, he saw Chica, his dog, waiting excitedly for him. The dog followed close behind the faux-redhead as he walked back out into the living room. Wade, Matt, and Ryan were talking amongst themselves as Mark entered and took a seat. Wade was rambling on and on about his flight from Cincinnati, and Chica trotted around the living room traveling between each man. They talked mostly about nothing in particular to waste some time before Jack got there. They all got the idea to play the seven second challenge like they usually did when Wade visited. The recording took longer than expected to film with many hilarious antics happening throughout.

"It's almost time for our reservations." Matt said looking at the time on his phone. Mark pulled out his phone surprised at how late it's already gotten. "Should we get going? I don't know about you, but I wouldn't wanna pay the late fee."

"But Jack isn't here yet. I don't think he'd appreciate coming to a completely empty house." Ryan said stretching out even more on the couch he was sitting on. Wade was sitting next to him but was ignoring the whole conversation by playing with Chica. Mark sighed trying to think of a solution before quickly coming up with an idea.

"I could stay here and wait for him if you guys want me to. You could get the table and we'll meet there after he arrives." Mark offered which seemed like the best option for everyone. They left and Mark watched them drive away before plopping down on the couch to watch television.

A very long while later, probably close to a half hour later, there was a rather loud knock on the door which caused Mark to jump up from his seat. He quickly opened the door to see a very familiar figure standing in front of him. The green hair, small frame, large glasses with light blue eyes peering out behind them, and huge smile that never left his face was too hard not to recognize. It was Jack. He had finally arrived and the two shared a quick hug as a greeting before entering the house. They headed straight to Mark's room to set up Jack's stuff and drop off his suitcase.

"How was the flight?" Mark asked leaning against his bedroom door frame. Jack was quickly unpacking in order to find better clothes than what he was wearing for the plane ride. The slightly older man turned away as the Irishman started changing.

"It was really long and uncomfortable." Jack said slipping on his nicest pair of skinny jeans. "Sorry I'm late too. The flight to Boston was delayed because of storms."

"No. It's fine. We just have to leave really soon because the other guys are already there." Mark said turning around as Jack slid a tight beanie on the back of his head finally done changing. Mark smiled at him seeing the other man trying to straighten out his shirt after Chica jumped at him.

"I'm already to go if you are." Jack said walking past Mark to gesture that he wanted to leave. The taller man shrugged following the other out of the house. They got into Mark's car after making sure they had everything they needed and finally headed to the restaurant.
