Bustin' Makes Me Feel Good! (For Bare)

Post by CyanDimitrik »

It was wild, getting her debut match underway and done. Wild and painful. Camille is still working through the jet-lag of her flight from Mexico, as is the rest of the Reyes clan. But right now, the majority of what she's feeling is the residual pain still throbbing in her body when she moves too quickly or stretches too suddenly.

But it's been a few days. She's mentally prepared for the next challenge. Or so she thought. The message helpfully translated by her phone detailed what her next bout would be, and her it nearly sent poor Nana Lola loco trying to figure out why precisely they'd be expecting her grandbaby to wear a swimsuit for it. That was an awkward conversation. And some mental gymnastics. And probably a healthy dose of blissful reality denial in the process, assuredly confident that this is just how the big time does things. They have special themed matches! And special locations! Naturally it'd be more thrilling for the competitors to dress for the occasion! No one blinks at the volleyball tournaments in mandatory bikinis!

She spent most of the day snooping around for a swimsuit she felt would reliably stand up to the rigors of competitive grappling and the wildly energetic athletics she employs in the ring. But nothing doing today. It made her a little nervous that she might have to compromise and risk wardrobe malfunctions just due to not being able to navigate the city effectively enough to find what she needed. But the thought was pushed out of her mind when she stumbled upon something... magical.

Dave & Buster's. Right here in Japan.

She'd been once or twice with her family in Mexico. But imagine seeing it here of all places!

Deciding firmly to relax away the stressors of her upcoming bout, Camille lets thoughts of her alter-ego be put aside in favor of just... being her maskless self for a while. Not that she'd be doing anything to garner attention, specifically! She's not even dressed in any kind of eye-catching way, so far as she knows! Just her regular, easily-overlooked self.

At this point, the Latina has found her way over to a complicated vector game requiring high levels of dexterous coordination between two simultaneous joysticks. She has no idea what it's called, because its title is written in the mysterious moon-shaped etchings of the far east, and she doesn't recognize it. But she's figured out the game quickly enough. So now she stands poised in front of the cabinet, her long, thick hair resting loose against her back, crucifix necklace dangling a little in front of her chest, hazel-green eyes glued to the screen in deep focus and concentration. Even her tongue pokes out slightly from the corner of her lips.

The game itself is a rail-shooter, and each joystick controls a rotating turret. Both are required to keep enemy ships from shredding the player's. And for Camille, it's coming down to the wire. Hull integrity is down to 20% and dropping bit by bit!

Teuila sighed contently as she stretched her arms above her head while enjoying one of her new favorite spots in Tokyo, that being Dave and Busters. It was a place she had heard about but never actually visited since there weren't any locations where she lived in the U.S.... Well that and being broke at the time to afford wrestling training. But in any case once she had found out there was one here she definitely wanted to check it out for herself.

'Definitely gotta take Nico with me next time she'd LOVE this place.' Teuila thought to herself but unfortunately the spastic blonde had to head home for a bit to deal with a family holiday thing or something and Teuila wasn't rally feeling it despite being invited. As such she took it upon herself to... test run this place out for date night and she'd one hundred percent be taking her girlfriend here once she was back. Still Teuila was relatively fresh in her visit to the adult arcade and while having played some fun games earlier before taking a break to eat she was definitely wanting to get back to it.

So after scanning the large room of games Teuila smiled as she spotted an interesting looking one that seemed to be a street fight or mortal kombat off shoot. 'sweet!' Teuila thought to herself skipping over to where the machine was located, ending up standing right next to another girl who seemed to be her age with dark haired and tanned skin, though not as dark as Teuila's own. But for now Teuila wasn't focused on that as she started up the game and started playing, getting fairly far into the arcade mode while her compatriot lasted longer and longer on her own shooter based game it seemed like.

Unfortunately... "No no no! Gah come on dumb ass game he just kept crouching and hitting uppercuts how is that fair!?" Teuila snapped, clearly sore about losing as she kicked the game, her loud exclamation and close proximity to the girl next to her no doubt affecting her own playing time.

Camille wasn't really much of a gamer. She'd played at arcades before, sure. But her little brother was definitely more hooked on them than her, for better or worse. But right now? This feels familiar. This feels more like home. Everything is written in Japanese, and the ambient chatter is alien to her, but the screen and controls? Those are universal, baby.

Okay, mostly. She got the gist of it, anyway! And there's a rhythm to this game. If you can match the turret rotation to the pattern of the enemies' flow, you mitigate a lot of damage! And that's how she's hanging in there! She's entering that flow state! She's the gamer girl! She's the girl who wins!

Recognizable obscenities ring out beside her, causing the Latina to jump in surprise. She shoots the girl a wide-eyed, surprised look, only for a nearby explosion sound to yank her attention back to the screen.

"Aaahhh!," she frets, her voice caught high in her throat as she tries to make up ground. "Chin! Chin! Chin! Chin! Chin!"

Kaboooom. The screen flashes with the epic explosion of Camille's spacecraft. She is no longer the gamer girl. She did not win.

"Ay, chale!," huffs the girl, whapping her hands lightly on the cabinet's flat surface in frustration.

It takes a few beats of her staring grumpily at the screen before she drags her hazel green focus to the girl beside her, and finally really gets a look at her. The very first thing she notices are the adorable enormous puffy ponytails. Then the cute face. She looks like they're the same age! Then the chic fashion sense. And just like that, Camille is inwardly judging her own wardrobe choice. She must look like a dork who just walked out of a department store.

She tucks her chin sheepishly and folds her hands together before herself.

"It likes to cheat, ah?," she asks meekly. Her English is richly accented with a Spanish flavor, leaning heavily on the consonants and giving her sweetly youthful voice a honeyed texture. "My brother says 'de same thing. Do, um- are you from around here?"

Realizing she's trying to spark up a conversation with someone who looks like they'd fit well into the more popular cliques at her school, she stammers, "O-oh! Ah- I'm Camille. Hi." An awkward smile follows, and she spares a hand to tuck some errant tresses of hair behind her ear.

Teuila glared grumpily still at the arcade machine. Internally debating whether or not she wanted to try again or just keep beating the crap out of it. Though if she did the latter and was caught she may have to pay for it... So really the question was whether that would be worth it or not.

However before Teuila could decide on one or the other option she would turn her head as someone got her attention next to her making her realize her outburst had probably made the person playing the game next to her to lose. Blushing immediately at that thought Teuila would bashfully scratch the back of her head before she'd speak.

"OH hehe, well... more like playing cheap than anything hehe uh..." Teuila started to say only to process the rest of what the girl said, including introducing herself as Camille. "Oh nice to meet you Camille. I'm Teuila." Teuila answered, put at ease a bit by the apparent friendliness of the girl as she reached forward to shake her hand.

"And that kinda depends. I live around here yeah but obviously I'm not from Japan hehe." Teuila answered while gesturing at herself to show she very much wasn't native to the land of the rising sun. "Howww about you? I'm guessing by you're accent you're also probably not from around here? So tourist?" Teuila said trying to keep up the conversation.

The very first thing Camille takes note of when Teuila answers her is... she seems nice! Maybe she isn't the highschool queen bee she immediately assumed? Maybe she's extra dolled-up because she's here on a date! But if that's the case, where's the guy?

Camille catches herself quickly scanning the space near Teuila for anyone who seems to be lingering or paying special attention. But finding none, her hazel-green eyes zip right back to her. "Teuila! Am I saying 'dat right?," she asks with a little tilt of her head. She is, in fact, saying it right! Mostly! It's difficult for her to pronounce much of anything without that accent coloring her delivery at least a little.

The little laughs peppering Teuila's speech helps Camille relax. It almost sounds awkward! And if this girl is sounding a little awkward, or at least sort'a giggly, then she shouldn't be so nervous talking to her! Right?

"Eheh, yeah, obviously," she adds with a lopsided grin. She can't be sure where exactly Teuila is from, though. She has one of those exotic looks that suggest it could be from nearly anywhere. Maybe Brazil? But she's not going to ask something like that, it feels too personal! Too demanding! And also the girl's given her something else to answer!

Folding her hands neatly before herself, her shoulders shifting forward in a slightly self-conscious way, she says, "Is true, I'm not from here. I'm from México," she volunteers. "Very, very recently. I moved here with my family, 'de grandmother and brother and sister. So we're kind of here for 'de long haul, ah?"

The rhetorical question is presented with a perky smile.

"What about you? Did you go to school here? Or are you touring?" That shouldn't be too invasive, right? They look the same age, she thinks!
