Tony DiNozzo was at his desk, doing paperwork. He did his best work at night. Of all varieties. Paperwork, though, that was really boring. He really hated paperwork. He would settle for any distraction, really. Ding! Ding! Ding! Speak of the devil! A distraction! It was an IM. He clicked the little window to get into the conversation. He frowned. He didn't know anyone with the screen name FriendOfYours. The message read:
FriendOfYours: staying up late again, Tony?
Still looking for any excuse not to do paperwork, Tony typed in
Me: why yes I am. I'm sorry; who did you say you were?
FriendOfYours: I didn't. I want you to go to Runescape dot com.
Me: sounds like a Lord of the Rings thing.
FriendOfYours: it's an MMORPG. Just go.
He typed in the website. It was probably McGee trying to get him to play Elf Lord with him. How geeky. Well, no one else has to know. When the page loaded, the scenes looked pretty badass. It can't be all that bad. Maybe it could be a good laugh. Ding! Ding! Ding!
FriendOfYours: click "play existing user" your username is TADtheAnnoyance. Your password is 3333333.
Annoyance? That's mean. It's gotta be McGee. Or maybe Ziva got McGee to teach her this stuff. What kind of name is TAD? Names like Weylin and Kinvaras at least sound medieval and fantasy-like, but this was nonsense. He typed in
Me: after I log in, then what?
FriendOfYours: we'll get there.
Me: is this you, McElf Lord?
FriendOfYours: nope. Try again.
Me: Ziva?
FriendOfYours: wrong-O
Me: definitely not Ziva
Tony typed in the username and password and logged in. There wasn't much detail, but there were a lot of players on this site. He found his little character in the middle of his screen. Huh. It looked a little like him. Yeah, the hair, the shirt, the pants. Just like how he dressed this morning. Scary. His little guy had only a dagger. How wimpy. A yellow line of words appeared over a nearby character's head.
Quite a likeness, isn't it, Tony?
He typed in
You are?
A FriendOfYours.
(A/N: okay people, I'm gonna hold off on uploading more chapters until I get at least 5 votes for or against bringing Gibbs in on this.)
