What Kind Of Dream Is This? Tenku, Confesses...
Yeah, long story short, I lost on both brackets. Well, three brackets.
1st bracket, I lost due to me flat out stopping on Dead End. I got about halfway and my legs were like uh fuck you and I was sent to the loser's bracket. I would've been fine with Drop Out to be honest, but in retrospect that would've been worse...
So, I still had the girls/standard bracket. I passed that with no problem, and I went back to watch other people compete. But, later on I lost due to the fact I had a Great Storm and I wouldn't change my own timing... >_<)
I looked at the losers bracket and I sorta made a big scene. I had 2 byes, but that wasn't it. Trent and BSD (that is a long story behind that nickname we gave this dude) were in the previous bracket (Trent had lost to Alex but we were expecting that anyway). That meant the winner of that match, I'd go against.
I called everyone over from our group and I was like, "don't kill me!" He was gonna do HVAM, knowing full well I can only get about halfway (at the time).
Well, he lost to BSD and everyone was shocked at this. I told Okami this (as he was still in the winner's bracket, totally kicking ass) and he told me, in all seriousness, "you fuckin' punish him. even if you don't pass the song, punish him." Earlier, I had gotten intel that BSD plain failed Max 300. Stopped and walked off. But, he almost sandbagged Trent on the very song, so we're like, well we're gonna need something stronger.
And so, revenge tactic. I asked Okami what song should I pick (keep in mind, due to time constraints, we had to go on the X and Supernova 2 machines) and... in retrospect, I should've picked Pluto or at least Fascination Maxx. He told me, "PSMO." Now, earlier that day, when Tim put it on Freeplay so we could practice a little before shipping off, I did pick Max 300 on Heavy on a dare -- on the highest difficulty no less -- I got pretty damn far. On that note, I'm like all I have to do is pretty much outlast him at this point. Just outlast.
I told him about my plan, and he was like, "holy shit really? You're gonna do it?" and I just gave him the look. He just smiled and hugged me, and thanked me. Of course, everyone else was like 'what just went down? why is she getting constantly hugged on?' (because I got a super mega hug -- or the crossover hug as Okami put it). I just had a sweet deposition up until that point.
The plan sorta fell through. So, the opponent has to agree to the difficulty. He chickened out on Oni, so we ended up doing Heavy. Now, I wish I could've been like, 'oh, no PSMO? PLUTO, BITCH!' but I was pretty hell bent on it. I glanced back, before picking it. So, I was actually doing pretty good. I was good up until the 3rd slowdown. I looked at BSD's meter and it was fucking full. I was like 'are you fucking kidding me?' and that was my defeat really.
I just stopped. Now, when a person fails out completely, or just stops, the other person automatically wins. He just kept going. I'm like 'son of a bitch'. I heard KB (another long story) say, yeah he got this. I wanted to kick him in the teeth. He oozes arrogance... but I digress. I'm actually surprised that he didn't punish me for picking PSMH. But, I tried, and I got a extra special hug. "You get 20 sexy favors!" (Okami got 40 due to the fact he got as far as he did, and had some pretty epic moments. He got 4th overall).
Of course he was kidding... (I think? More on that later...)
And after that (involving shenanigans in getting Cedric and Okami to their own car), went to Whataburger as post meet up -- delicious, scrumptious, bacon cheeseburger. And the best part was that I was just craving such a thing. Alex made some examples using DBZ references and Okami saying that Pluto the First was a product of Fascination Maxx and something else... I can't remember the exact way he put it but it was funny.
And, it was like around 1am or so at this point, so we all went our separate ways. I stayed over with Trent (did I mention this in last post? briefly), and the next day, we went over to Okami's family restat...food place. I was still tired from that last morning, but we had some good eats and stuff. Moppy woke me up with texts... and I basically said I was over at his house because there was just no way we would've made it back that late and that tired... and I sorta confessed to her that I liked him *a little*.
Now, normally when I like a person, I'm like :3 all the time. She just told me that take it slow or whatever and not be aggressive about it. I don't know if I've mentioned this, but I have something of a dominant personality, and I generally don't like submissive guys. Where's the fun in that?
Of course, on the way back (come to think of it, on the way to), we stopped by Wendy's and got something to eat... and well of course, people looked at us strangely. I'm pretty sure the black people were like "how in the hell did he end up with her?" (at the time I had my good jeans on and a pink sweater. My hair was still straight too, ha) and it even got worse in Walmart since he had to pick some things up. I certainly caught that, but I don't think he did, or ignored it. I thought it was amusing though.
Since then, we've been talking to each other more and stuff... and texting each other at random points in the night. And facebook. As they say, becoming good friends. Oh, and technically, I rank higher than him. HA! (Alex won 1st in an epic battle...)
.
Last night though, I sorta confessed that I liked him. But, on how I presented that was a totally different way. Y'see, I had a dream the night before last.
We were up in space, for whatever reason, and we were all sitting down eating some lunch or dinner. Suddenly the station shook violently, and immediately, the voice announcer thingie was basically saying, get to a safe place immediately. Well, we all got separated because there were also some... things that attacking as well.
But I remember pretty damn good that Trent somehow got stuck in a airlock and fending off of what it looked like a small alien (it looked like a facehugger to be honest). Well, the air lock opened and shit pretty much went downhill after that. Okami arrived -- bloodied up -- and he managed to shut it. We dragged him into the sick bay, where everyone else was there waiting, injured and some with weapons. Cedric was apparently the doctor, and he ran tests. We also had to stick him in quarantine -- I didn't appreciate that but it was because of the air lock thing. I told Cedric about him fighting the alien thing and everyone just stopped and looked at me.
He said, "There's a high change that he might have been bitten and infected... there's no telling on what might happen."
Trent wasn't able to say anything because... well, he was in a coma. A painful coma too.
And then Okami chimes in with, "If you seen the old horror movies, he's gonna turn. I might as well shoot him now."
I flip my shit out about this and argue that sometimes it doesn't happen, he just happened to be a coma and stormed through the door. I just looked at him, and I think I said something. And I kissed him, on the forehead. People flipped their shit. I hear Tim say, "I fuckin' knew it!" (in the last 2 or so posts, he theorized on how we got bronchitis at the same time.) I was pretty pissed at Okami, and didn't talk to him, but he appointed Alex to get me and Cyndi to the safety zone or whatever.
And then I fuckin' woke up. I was distraught about this for the whole day, and I flat out told him about this while he was playing a game of Go. He's like 'well obviously you're attracted to me in some way that you a] thought about me and b] kissed me...even though I was possibly dead or something.'
Well shit.
At first, I sorta denied it, but... after a while I basically said it. And it's quite mutual too. I honestly don't know why I am -- maybe because he smells good when he sweats (yeah, it's weird, but it is true...and he knows it XD) or he's just level-headed than everyone else... maybe because he doesn't try hard. Or he gave me orange juice and I've been smitten since.
But, I'm not gonna read too much into it.
Not yet anyway.
