4/22: MMORPG AU

gray9: Kudo-kun, you suck at this.
hohoholmes: Then you heal.
gray9: I would but I need to complete the dungeon runs for this character too.
hohoholmes: Then deal with it.
gray9: Maybe you'd be a better healer if you stopped being so snappy.
hohoholmes: I'm trying, ok?!
gray9: Trying to what? You've been dogging those enemies around when you know your priest is under-geared and can't kill.
hohoholmes: I can kill them.
gray9: Yeah, but we'll get killed first.
hohoholmes: Haibara, stop nagging!
unagilove: Conan, why are you over there?! Heal!
gray9: Pfft.
hohoholmes: Shut up, woman!
Mitch: Ayumi-chan, Conan-kun and Haibara-san are arguing again!
ayu11: You guys, concentrate!

They finish the dungeon.

ayu11: You two always start arguing whenever we run dungeons together! When will you guys stop and play nice?l
gray9: I don't know... once the self-proclaimed genius actually gains the skills to back it up?
hohoholmes: Shut up, woman! I can destroy you in a duel!
gray9: Can you?

Shinichi gestures to her phone, and she looks at the screen. She sees the prompt, "hohoholmes is requesting for a duel."

hohoholmes: Accept!

In 30 seconds, hohoholmes is down on the floor next to his healing totem.

hohoholmes: This isn't my main! And assassin bursts hurt so of course you'd win! I'll switch and let you taste defeat!

Haibara only needed to wait for 10 seconds before she saw the prompt, "sherlockholmes is requesting for a duel."

In 45 seconds, sherlockholmes is down on the floor.

sherlockholmes: Pfft, assassins are overpowered on duels.
gray9: Then I'll change.

After several more matchups, all ending with Shinichi's character dying within a minute, Ayumi finally has enough of the slaughter.

ayu11: Ai-chan, stop bullying Conan-kun already...

Shinichi winces. Haibara chuckles when she sees, and Shinichi's face sours even more when he hears her laugh.

dandydoggo: I'm not bullying him.
Mitch: Haibara-san, let him last at least a minute and a half until you kill him off…
baker221b: I'm just going easy on Haibara, ok?!"
dandydoggo: Yeah, yeah.
baker221b: No, really, I'm going to destroy you. Accept!

Haibara declines the prompt "baker221b is requesting for a duel."

dandydoggo: I'm getting tired of this.
baker221b: Shut up and accept!

Again, Haibara declines the prompt "baker221b is requesting for a duel."

dandydoggo: Wanna bet on it?
unagilove: Ooh, that's interesting!
Mitch: I bet 30 seconds 'til Conan-kun dies.
unagilove: I bet 40!
ayu11: I bet 45!
baker221b: Hey, none of you are on my side!
dandydoggo: 'Cause you suck.
baker221b: I'll make you eat those words.
ayu11: Ai-chan, rest a bit, then kill him in 45 seconds!
dandydoggo: Hmm, but what do I get when I win?
baker221b: You say that like you're going to win.
dandydoggo: Duh. What's the score again?
unagilove: What about... loser buys lunch?
baker221b: After this fight, me-1, you-0.
dandydoggo: Make yourself believe that.
Mitch: Loser buys tickets to our movie trip next Saturday!
dandydoggo: Loser does whatever the winner wants.
baker221b: Deal. You're going down, Haibara.

Haibara accepts the prompt "baker221b is requesting for a duel."

ayu11: You can't!
Mitch: You can't!
unagilove: Huh, why?
ayu11: We'll set what the loser will do!
Mitch: Yeah!
ayu11: What about loser cooks lunch for everyone?
unagilove: Oh, ok, that's good!
Mitch: Yeah… or loser takes over cleaning duties next camping trip!

After 15 seconds, baker221b's health is already down to half.

ayu11: Or, loser records himself singing and sends it to the group chat!
Mitch: Haha, that will be funny!
unagilove: Yeah, and we can set Conan-kun's recording as our ringtones!
ayu11: It's settled then!

25 seconds into the match, Shinichi sighs. He has been reading the chat box at the bottom of the screen, and following the kids' conversation... which is basically telling him that nobody expects him to win anyway, so they're throwing around things they want him to do.

Haibara has been reading the chat box too, and after seeing the settled deal, dandydoggo stops moving at the corner of the arena.

baker221b manages to combo dandydoggo twice, in the same corner, and dandydoggo dies in 40 seconds.

ayu11: Whoa?
Mitch: What?
unagilove: Conan won?
baker221b: Serves you right! I told you I was going to win!
dandydoggo: I'd rather lose than have your singing recorded.
ayu11: Oh, right, Conan-kun is…
baker221b: Rude! Lame excuse, since I sing just fine.
Mitch: Yeah, that wasn't a good idea…
dandydoggo: The world would end if I ever set it as my ringtone.
unagilove: Right, we forgot he's tone-deaf.
baker221b: Hey!
