[Action]

[Zack is outside House 50 doing squats. Endlessly. No, he's not getting tired anytime soon. He's going to break his old record, goddammit.

Feel free to talk to him, bother him, or challenge his squatting skills, but this is one minigame he's undefeated in!]

[ooc note: Okay guys, I have a prospect for you all! Zack's been affected by the event, Crisis Core style. Part of Crisis Core, for those who are unaware, is the DMW, aka the Digital Mind Wave. Essentially Zack gets a slot machine of people with whom he bonds, granting him a new special attack.

Come and talk to Zack, and your character may get added, with their own quote + special attack; give me something they might say and something significant about their abilities and attack style and I'll think something up for him, Or if you have an idea, feel free to suggest it :3 This is just for fun so it's by no means required that they fight!

Just say in the subject title that you want a DMW, and if they talk enough Zack'll get one /o/]

That's pretty cool, Spike. I always wondered if anybody beat my record.

[Cloud just does a few more before resting in a crouch again, elbows on his knees.]

...sorry.

[Zack pauses in his own squats, watching him curiously.]

...It's okay, I wasn't mad.

I'm gonna talk to Tifa. [He rubs his nose.] Once I figure out the right thing to say.

Good idea. I'm sure she won't stay mad at you for long.

Mmm. [He stands, feeling a hell of a lot better, and glances over at Zack.] So I believe you said something about a challenge?

Yeah! Back at Shinra I held the record for the most squats in 30 seconds. I'm undefeated!

Well... [Cloud rolls his shoulders, brows lifting slightly.] I wonder if that'll hold true here.

Oh bring it on, Strife. Novices don't have a chance with me.

[Blip! Classic FF7 neon-pink counter above Cloud's head now. He also has a button tutorial to tell him what to press.]

[Sucks to be you, Spike, Zack only has to press one button and he's a master. 8|]

[WHOA WHOA WHOA WHOA WHOA THERE CHEATER.]

Zack, stop, stop. Stop. You're doing it wrong.

...How can I be doing it wrong? I've been doing this for years!

No, I've been doing this for years, and you're doing it wrong.

How the hell am I supposed to do it, then?

[Sigh.

Here, Zack. You can has dialogue box with a pixelated gif showing you what buttons to press, and when.]

[....What. What the hell is that. Buttons? Who the hell- and how is that even up there? Zack tries to wave his hand through the box. WTF IS THIS SHIT.]

[Oi, get your hands out of there. Cloud smacks Zack's wrist away.]

Spike, what the hell is that thing?

[Cloud points to the text above it. Uh duh? Tutorial?]

...But I don't have an 'x' button, unless you're being perverted or something.

[Exiting tutorial, clearly this man doesn't understand anything.] Look, like this.

[Cloud performs a perfectly normal squat.] Like that. See?

...Spike, that's exactly what I've been doing this whole time.

No, you were doing it like this. [Another perfectly normal squat. Exactly like the other one.]

....It looks the same.
