My fingers furiously tapped the buttons on my controller. I ignored everything around me besides what was going on on the screen. Sunflower constantly mumbling to herself, Sunset's fidgeting, and Sunset's mom's cries of frustration when she messed up never registered to my consciousness. Unlike most everything in the normal world, being good at video games had come naturally to me. I didn't have to read anything. I didn't have to worry about knowing stuff I was supposed to know. I was given an objective, and I followed it. That was all I required.

I was so entranced by the game that I hadn't noticed Sunset's dad coming over either. I think he watched us for several minutes too. It was only when he spoke that any of us bothered to acknowledge him.
"Are you four still playing this game? Dawn, I can't believe you're in on this laziness."

Mrs. Glory leaned forward as I passed her on the track.
"It's fine, Mel," she almost whined to her husband, "It's still hailing! Surely you don't expect me to force them outside in this weather?"
I nearly hurt my fingers as I smacked the buttons so hard.
"I won again!" I cried merrily as my character finished the last lap.
"Shoot. So close." Sunflower said.
"I guess it can't be helped. Meadow's so much better at stuff like this than us." Sunset laughed.
"I almost had her that time too." Mrs. Glory rolled her eyes.
I heard Mr. Glory sigh, but it was a sigh of mild amusement more than one of annoyance.
"No, I don't expect you to send them outside. There are so many other activities you could be doing than wasting your time with video games though." he said.
"Like what?" Mrs. Glory asked tauntingly.
I smiled widely. Sunset had told me her mom was decently older than her dad, but Mrs. Glory often seemed more like one of us.
"Reading books. I just bought a whole bunch of new ones. Or if you want to be social- tell stories. Ghost stories are a good option with dreary weather like this."
"Ghost stories?" I said curiously.
My enthusiastic question covered up large exhales from both Sunset and her mom.
"Don't get him started, Meadow. He's obsessed with ghost stories. He'll make up any excuse to tell one." Sunset explained.
