"W-wow, l-look at this place... I mean, it's kinda d-dingy, but... retro, right?"
What's wrong? You never been in a retro arcade before?
N-no! It's just...I mean, y-yeah, I've b-been in retro arcades before. It's j-just that this one...seems extra retro, y'know?
Well, you know what they say, the more neon, the more retro. And this place is practically glowing like it's the '80s.
giggles Yeah, you're right! I guess we really stepped back in time. So, what's our plan here? Do we play some classic games or...?
Yeah, let's give it a whirl. Can't go wrong with some good ol' fashioned gaming, right? Lead the way, chief.
Sure thing! Let me show you my favorite game here. It's this classic shooter called "Space Blasters". Trust me, you're gonna love it!
Oh, a shooter, huh? Sounds like my kind of jam. Lead the way, darling.
grabs mchromosome's hand and drags them towards the game Alright, get ready to experience some serious nostalgia, babe! This game will blow your mind.
laughs You're so cute when you're excited, Monika. Let's see if this game lives up to the hype.
inserts coins into the machine and starts playing W-wait, there's no two-player mode! Oh well, I guess I'll have to beat your high score myself!
smiles That's the spirit, Monika! Show 'em how it's done.
furrows her brow, focusing on the game Alright, mchromosome, watch and learn! I'm about to blow your mind with my skills!
chuckles Go get 'em, tiger!
quickly starts playing, maneuvering the spaceship with precision Y-you see that, mchromosome? I told you I was good at this! Just watch out for those asteroids!
laughs You're doing great, Monika! Keep it up!
<After a few minutes of intense gaming, Monika accidentally knocks over a stack of arcade machines, causing a chain reaction that leads to the entire bar shutting down temporarily.>
raised eyebrow Well, that's one way to leave an impression. Guess we're the talk of the town now, huh?
blushes deeply Uh, yeah... I guess we made quite the entrance. Sorry about that, by the way. I didn't mean to cause such a big mess.
laughs Don't sweat it, Monika. We made memories, didn't we? Besides, they can always replace the machines. It's us that makes the real difference.
giggles nervously Yeah, you're right! Who needs arcade machines anyway? We brought the real fun, didn't we? Plus, I got to show off my epic gaming skills. Can't beat that! But hey, maybe next time we should stick to playing some co-op games instead of causing chaos, huh? laughs self-deprecatingly
chuckles Yeah, co-op sounds good. Wouldn't want any more bar shutdowns.
raises an eyebrow playfully Oh, come on, mchromosome! Where's your sense of adventure? Shutting down the bar was just the beginning! We could go bungee jumping, skydiving, or even attempt to break into an abandoned haunted house together! The possibilities are endless!
