This is less a plotting submission than it is a permissions request for a micro-arc I've been considering for a few months. I just didn't want to try running it before Anime Expo with how buried I'd been in prep. But now that I'm back and things are looking mostly clear, I wanted to pitch this idea and get permission for the potential spoils.

Roxas has made a number of friends in town and I wanted to arrange a "boy's day out" kind of adventure with him, Conan, Emil and Maciel exploring a section of the city that was largely left alone.

I'm thinking that there wouldn't be hostile encounters, but the main point of the thread is that they would find an old Chuck E Cheese-type place. Basic spoils I'd like them to take away from it for installation in "The Usual Spot" would be an air hockey table, a soda fountain(That their hosts in the city would see fit to keep stocked with syrup and CO2) and one of those multiple game arcade cabinets loaded with a handful of knock-off titles of varied 1980~1996 era arcade video games(Double Dragon, Street Fighter, KoF, Metal Slug... those kinda video games).

I know the arcade machine might be a smidge iffy with the game's setting, but I wanted to clear it before I started up such a thread. If you've got ideas for things that can be changed or other suggestions, please let me know. Thanks for your time.

Micro-arcs are fantastic. :)

As for what you hope to find. There would not be any sort of Chuck-E-Cheese type place in the City, not given its history. However, they may be able to find certain thigns that you mentioned. Air hockey seems the most likely, though even more likely would be fooseball. The soda fountain may be old fashioned, but it ought to be functional and have some supplies with it. Finding the syrups one would need to actually use it after a while might be a challenge or involve bribing an NPC or two, but its a possibility. :)

There would, however, not be any video games. There are no computers, televisions or significant computer-type electronics in Ruby City outside the communicators, so I'm afraid those are out.

However something like a pool table or dartboards or shuffleboard setups or other more traditional pub type games would be another option that would be readily available if one looked in the right place.
