"MMMBLMMMLBLL..." Paul swallowed his pizza slice before he tried to speak once more and said: "Yeah we should really get even with Marshall one day. I like him very much but he still deserves some payback... We got to find something to make him pay..."

"What did he do?" Xianlong asks in curiosity.
"You really don't want to know." Steve said. "And yes, we need to get back at him for that. I dunno what we'd do... any ideas, Paul?"

Paul was blushing in embarrasment as Xianlong was asking. He then answered Steve:
"I don't know... I was hoping for you to get some idea... I guess we'll have to improvise when we see him... I'm not even sure he will come to the Tournament. With the war and all, he remains quiet with his family and restaurant. Maybe we could go to his restaurant one day and put some plastic cockroaches in his kitchen or something..."

"I think that would be a great idea! Fake cockroaches. Can't go wrong with that! But we have to be careful not to shut down his business. Like, that's no bueno."
Xianlong didn't understand why they were going to prank Marshall's restaurant but she just shrugged.

"Yeah, you're right. Maybe we should put the cockroaches in his apartment instead... Or do something else. But we gotta take a picture of us with Mario today... It's no revenge but we gotta do it."
Paul took another slice of pizza and asked:
"So, what do we do after lunch?"

"I'd say... in his apartment... let's put the fake roaches in his pantry, and refrigerator, and wherever he stores food! I like that idea! That's bloody brilliant, Paul!"
"So, what do we do after lunch?"
"I'm thinking... maybe we can go play some Rave War at the arcade?" Xianlong still enjoyed going to the arcade, despite what had happened yesterday. "I'm pretty good at this game! I'm always looking for people to play against."
"We'll see. Can't be that hard..."

Paul smiled when Steve told him it was brilliant. He never was a genius but didn't really like when people called him dumb. He wasn't that stupid... so it was fun to get some compliment.
"I can already see Marshall's horrified face... I can't wait to do it..."
About Xianlong's proposition Paul said:
"Arcade! Yeah, that's cool! Great idea! I like video games!"
Paul took another slice of pizza, he was still hungry but eager to go to the arcade as well.

"Me too." Steve added.
Xianlong was done with her pizza. She did like the taste of this Italian food. It was really delicious. She'll keep her eyes peeled for a pizza shop in Hong-Kong. Probably will find one in Victoria City, since that's where all the British people who haven't left the country in 1997 live.
"Good choice, Mr. Phoenix. Pizza is awesome" She said.
"Arcade! Yeah, that's cool! Great idea! I like video games!"
"That's awesome. I like having more gaming buddies."
Steve shrugged. "I'm not much of a gamer. I could never really get into them."
"Maybe you can start with an easy game like Pac-Man or Galaga."

"Yeah, pizza is the greatest thing on Earth. ...Almost. Maybe one of the eight, nine, I don't remember, wonders of the world." replied Paul to Xianlong before he asked her:
"Pac-Man and Galaga are still in arcades? Have you ever seen that legendary game Polybius? You know the one who doesn't exist and would hypnotise people or whatever with the men in black? If I would see it I would play, just to meet the men in black. But I think it really doesn't exist."

"I can attest to that!" Xianlong agreed with Paul.
She nodded to Paul's surprise of the classic games, Pac-Man and Galaga.
"Ahh yes, they are the classics. Those two games never go out of style, no matter the year. Simple, yet addicting. And yes, I have heard of Polybius. I believe it is a creepy pasta, though there are a lot of fake romhacks of this game online that you can play. Only in small doses. The flashing lights make my head hurt..."

"The flashing lights, yeah, I guess it does... Have you ever played a VR game? I did with Forest. His friend lend him that VR thing for that evening... God! I got sick! I was driving a car and I wanted to get out since I felt so sick even though the car wasn't real. I was dizzy and wanted to puke just by driving the car and turning... And the VR headset completely messed up my hair. But it was cool! You really feel like you're in another world! It was super cool but I'll stick with real arcade games and real driving. It doesn't make me sick. I just wish I can repair my motorcycle soon... I miss it..."

"Yeah. I've done VR before. It's really cool, but yes... it can make you sick." She nodded. "Playing the Elder Scrolls in VR is a match made in heaven. I get to be a Dragonborn and fight dragons in the VR world. But Uncle Wulong hasn't felt like buying me a PS4... after telling him it's a Sony product."

"Your uncle has something special against Sony things? " asked Paul, wondering why would Lei refused to buy a videogame. Not like he didn't have money for it...
"He's not against videogame violence, I hope? ...Is Elder scroll a RPG? I don't really know the newest games. I played only once some VR and don't remember the games I played. I don't even know if it was a PS4, all I know is that I had a headset on and it wasn't Mario or else I would have known it was Nintendo."

"Your uncle has something special against Sony things?"
"No, no, no... he loves Sony. He has so many Sony products. He replaced the factory radio and speakers in his car with Sony. He has only Sony TV's. He has a Sony Betamax. He even has a Sony computer and a Sony tablet. That's all he ever uses and all he cares about. It's surprising that he didn't collect all the Playstations. He's missing Playstation 3 and 4. Then his Sony collection is complete."
"He's not against videogame violence, I hope? ...Is Elder scroll a RPG? I don't really know the newest games. I played only once some VR and don't remember the games I played. I don't even know if it was a PS4, all I know is that I had a headset on and it wasn't Mario or else I would have known it was Nintendo."
"He doesn't mind, but he doesn't want Li-Mei involved. He doesn't think she's old enough to watch people get murdered on Mortal Kombat. Which is fair. But I don't know why he won't buy a PS4. He says he's too busy... I would get a job and try and buy me a PS4, but Uncle Wulong says it is very important that I focus on school, since he and my grandfather both made sacrifices at my age just so I can get into a good school... And yes, the Elder Scrolls is an RPG game... going all the way back to DOS. I'm excited for Valenwood. The sixth installment in the series."
Steve had no idea what to do in this conversation. He doesn't know anything about video games.

"Oh yeah, I guess age can be an important factor... I wouldn't want a little five years old to be traumatized for life, I got traumatised with Jaws when I was a kid... I would have to fight a shark to fight that traumatism away... Even if it's a wild animal, a bear is not the same so I don't fear them and still fear sharks... Anyway the only real bear I saw in a movie or TV series was... I don't remember the series but there was a bearded guy with a bear... and the bear was kind, not like that annoying Kuma... But aside from this, I don't think violence in videogames is that much of a problem..."
But Paul was now starting to get a little lost like Steve since he knew DOS games were computer games but never played any, he mostly played with Atari, Nintendo, Sega, when those came out. He didn't touch computers. He even called Marshall 'nerd' when the latter told him he played such games when they were teenagers...
"I didn't know that game was that old..."
