[For once, while not dealing with yard work, Japan is outside of the house. Either on the porch, walking down the road, or absentmindedly shopping in the grocery store; he can be found fairly easily. Coming from the Nintendo DS he's playing is music from the possibly familiar game of Chrono Trigger DS.]HP and MP restored! ...but you're still

Japan? What's wrong?

[fuelefficient]

Ah... oh, England-san. It almost seems impossible to keep yourself satisfied in this game.

[is_an_island]

Did your house burn down?

There's no need to seek solace in the games, b-but it's not like I'm offering to be there for you.

[fuelefficient]

...did it? I was not aware of such a thing.

[looking for smoke-!]

[is_an_island]

Then why are you outside?

[fuelefficient]

I needed to visit the store and I figured there would be nothing surprising along the way.

[is_an_island]

Oh. I'm glad to hear your house is safe.

What's that, then? [motioning vaguely to the DS thingamabob what these kids nowadays playing]

[fuelefficient]

This? This is a Nintendo DS, the most popular portable gaming system in the world.

Would you like to give it a try?

[is_an_island]

It... It seems like a fun little game.

Do I just press the buttons?

[fuelefficient]

For this game, yes. The arrow buttons move the character and when there are dialogue options to select, you also use the arrow buttons and then press the A button to choose what you wish.

[passing it over]

[is_an_island]

[totally lost!! pressing

buttons]

... Am I winning?

[fuelefficient]

Y-Yes.

[might as well make him happy]

There is still about thirty hours left in the game though.

[is_an_island]

People spend that much time on games? That's a little ab--

Am I still winning?

[smashing buttons on the dialogue option yeah he'll dialogue you random NPC]

[fuelefficient]

There are some who dedicate their lives around gaming. One of China-san's citizens have died because he played games too long.

Of course. I believe it would be difficult for you to lose.

[is_an_island]

Because I'm naturally good at winning, of course.

Are you one of those types? You seem to be very into tiny screens.

[fuelefficient]

I enjoy games but I also prefer to keep everything neat and organized. I would like to say I have a balanced life style.
