Level 8000 (Gavi x Reader)

28 day writing prompt challenge - prompts are here

Day 6: Meeting for the first time

"Alright I'm going to get onto an online server. No one try to reach me for the next several hours."

Your roommates laughed at the warning as you slipped your headset on. You adjusted the ears, bringing the mic over your mouth, and settled back into the couch. Your hoodie and sweats swamped your form, providing maximum comfort for your gaming session. Were you a fantastic gamer? No. But had you fixated on two or three games for long enough to get good at specifically those games? Yes, yes you did. One of those games was FIFA. You had played all the events throughout the World Cup, in between the early morning matches, and late at night when your 7pm Redbull kept you up until the early hours.

This binge playing over your winter break, as well as the game events, lead to you having a crazy stacked team. You had a super high Neymar as your front man, meaning that as long as you got the ball in the last 1/3 of the field, you were almost guaranteed to score. When all your real life friends had grown tired of you winning 7-0, you turned to PS online. People on the internet were ruthless. You played against stacked teams, losing your first dozen matches. But as you practiced and upgraded your players (as well as googling some good team formations), you started to win. Your win-loss ratio improved immensely with the addition of one piece of equipment: headphones with a mic. You started to join the voice chat, and the sound of a woman sent these poor gamer boys into a frenzy, allowing you to score two goals before they could recover.

Now it was your escape. You loved the power of overwhelming men just by saying "good luck", and the profanities that followed when you won. Tonight was no different. You had already beaten four different whiny men, and had tied a game with another girl on the voice chat, who practically squealed with delight when she heard the sound of your voice. Now it was time for match number 6 of the night, and you were sufficiently warmed up, ready to destroy.

[Opponent] - 6avira30

You smiled, thinking to yourself 'Awe, a Gavi fanboy. I wonder if he has him in midfield." The audio connected, and you heard a couple different male voices yell at each other in Spanish.

"Hello?" You said softly into the mic. Couldn't have them think you were anything other than a soft uwu girl using her boyfriend's account. The voices stopped suddenly, with a long pause before the reply: "Are you a girl?" You laughed at the question. It was not the first time you had gotten it, but the utter confusion in the boy's voice caught you off guard. "Yeah, I am. Hurry up and lock in your team so we can start the match." "Ay, be patient. My great strategic mind needs time to work."

You groaned into the mic. These "strategists" often were the most annoying people to play with, and often the one calling you a cheater or a bot or saying that your "man" was playing while you were on the mic. You locked in the same team you always used, and waited for the great mastermind to lock in his squad. The match began a minute later, and you were not surprised to see it was mostly Barca players, old and new.

"Wow a Xavi-Iniesta midfield. It's been a minute since I've seen that." You said, trying to get the ball across the center line.

"They're the best duo in the world. Everyone should have them in the middle." The boy replied, harshly attacking all your midfielders. It had been a while since you encountered someone who played this aggressively, but it was interesting enough to get you to sit up straight.

"Really? Given your tag, I thought you would have Pedri and Gavi in the middle."

The boy got quiet at this, the statement clearly catching him off guard. It was the lapse in focus that you needed, getting the ball to your super-charged Neymar, and slamming a goal in from outside the box.

"What the actual fuck was that?" A yell came in from the other side. You laughed freely now. This was a fun match. You were being challenged in the middle of the field, really having your defense tested. The boy kept you entertained online, asking all the typical questions about how you got so good. The match ended 3-1 to you, and you were about to say goodbye when a notification popped up on your screen.

[6avira30] - Rematch Requested

"You want to play against me again? One loss wasn't enough?"

"I'm not going to lose again. I just have to recalibrate the squad."

You continued playing against the same opponent for 7 or 8 matches in a row, the conversation moving from the game to your lives.

"So you've never been to a football match in person? How is that possible? You live in Barcelona!"

"I'm a university student who is struggling to pay my rent. I don't have the time or money to buy tickets. Well, at least the tickets that I want."

"Well, what tickets do you want?"

"I want the ones that are right up on the field, so at the end of the game I can ask Lewy for his shirt at the end?"

"Lewandowski? Not one of the younger players?"

"Nah, everyone is always yelling for Gavi's shirt. And while it would be nice to see Gavi or Pedri shirtless, I feel like if I was ever lucky enough to get one of their shirts, my life would be in danger. So I would rather get a shift from DILF Lewy."

A loud laugh came in through your headphones. The boy yelled at his friend in the room, "She just called Robert a DILF."

At the end of the match (a 2-1 win for you), it was time to log off. You informed your online partner, bidding him a good night.

"Wait wait, before you get off, could you send your number in the chat? It's fine if not but I'd really like to talk to you again."

"My number? Why not just my Instagram?"

"I... Can't really follow you on Instagram. It's kind of complicated."

You sent him your number and logged off, going to bed with a stupid smile on your face. A boy had asked for your number. Could he be a weirdo in his mom's basement? Absolutely. But you could find that out later.

You woke up to a text that read: Hope you slept well - Lindo from PS Live. The stupid smile stuck to your face all day. For the next two weeks, you texted this boy almost every waking moment. You could not get enough of him, despite the fact that you couldn't get him to tell you his name.

[PS Live Boy]: Want to have coffee with me tomorrow?

The text set the butterflies in your stomach free, the fluttering feeling spreading to every cell in your body. You has said yes embarrassingly fast. He texted you the location: a pretty upscale coffee shop in the shopping district. Like 17 euro black coffee upscale. You now jumped up and down like a giddy school girl - PS Live boy had money.

You walked into the place, the hostess looking over your skirt and sweater with a sickly sweet smile, asking who you were supposed to be there with. PS Live boy had left the table under your name as to maintain his shroud of mystery. You sat at the table, reapplying your lip gloss and checking your hair in the camera of your phone.

[PS Live boy]: you can't freak out when you see me

[PS Live boy]: Because then I would have to leave and block your number

[PS Live boy]: and file a restraining order. and i dont want to do that

You let out a nervous breath, smiling at your screen. Usually when men said not to freak out, it was because they were ugly. The hostess that didn’t like you walked over to the table again, closely followed by someone in a hoodie, hood pulled up to cover their face. She pulled out a chair, and your PS Live boy sat in front of you. He thanked the hostess, before turning back you you and pulling his hood off.

“You’ve got to be fucking kidding me.”

Gavi looked at you with a cheeky smile playing on his lips. You were overwhelmed. Pablo mf Gavi had met you on PS live and liked you, asked for you number, and was now here on a date with you.

“Three weeks of being mysterious was worth the look on your face.”

“As Spain’s youngest player on the national team, how are you so shit at FIFA?”

“Okay okay okay, let’s go back to you being surprised and not talk about me getting my ass kicked 8 times in a row. Pedri still makes fun of me?”

“Dang Pedri was there? I should’ve asked for his number instead.”

“You have me leveled up to like 8000 in FIFA. I know you want to be here with me.”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A/N: this was supposed to be done last night but I fell asleep lol. I love the idea of Gavi being kinda cheeky and self confident. Most talented young boys are (because society inflates their egos). Anyways, see y’all later tonight w day 7!!

Touching is Good: A Retrospective

My trusty Nintendo 3DS, which has held out since I was gifted it for my 15th birthday, has turned one decade old with my 25th birthday this past November. Given new life with custom firmware and nds-bootstrap via TWiLightMenu, the 3DS is stellar for visiting any past handheld title or console title up to (and somewhat including) the N64. (Quick plug for the CFW/hacking community for the less popular PS Vita, too, which has accomplished some pretty crazy-cool stuff this last year.) I use my 3DS more often than I use my Nintendo Switch most weeks.

The Nintendo DS (minus the three) launched in late 2004. The second display and stylus support were novel tools for developers to experiment with, and the NDS is best remembered for its robust catalogue of RPGs and visual novels. Where it lacked in power, narrative-focused games flourished under its technical limitations.

That being said, while browsing the ROM archives on Vimm's Lair to pick up some titles, I was reminded of what an interesting era the mid-to-late 2000s were for games. While Sony and Microsoft were fighting over the "core gamer" demographic, who had outgrown Nintendo mascots, Nintendo led a series of wildly successful marketing campaigns for its hardware after the light failure of the Gamecube, where the Nintendo DS and then the Wii were targeted at...everyone else.

[Image source. Image description in alt text.]

If you look at ads for the DS and the Wii, you'll see that adults are featured much more prominently than children, especially women and seniors. (This did not go unnoticed, as I found this ancient relic of misogyny while looking for images for this post.) A Nintendo handheld was already an easy sell to parents with small children (though I think it's also notable that ads which do focus on children often prominently feature girls. Munchlax is pretty hot...), but Nintendo's angle for the DS and Wii was that their hardware wasn't just for children. The Wii was a way to get up off the couch and to play board games with grandma. The DS was a great gadget for a working woman to keep in her pocketbook.

This worked. The Wii and DS were two of the best-selling consoles of all time. In particular, the DS's marketing campaign only worked because it came out in the perfect window of time. PDA-phone hybrids had been around since the 90s, and the Blackberry had been kicking around for a few years, but the iPhone wouldn't be introduced until 2007, and the 4G LTE standard wouldn't be released until 2009. While the Blackberry was popular with businesspeople and the PDA was out of style, smartphones were luxury toys for several years; they wouldn't become near-ubiquious until the mid-2010s. I didn't get my own smartphone until probably around the same time I got my 3DS, a full handheld generation later.

Browsing the software library for the Nintendo DS and DSi with that in mind is really interesting. Many titles released for the platform serve the same purposes that would be fulfilled by simple smartphone apps less than a decade later: planners and diaries, fitness trackers, calculators, language learning and SAT prep software, even a guide to the then-most-recent version of the driver's test in the UK. These proliferated with the release of the DSi's virtual store, but they existed even with the base model. You could go to a brick-and-mortar store and buy them on physical cartridges. (You might be wondering, "Why would you bother carrying those around over just buying a Blackberry?" You can't underestimate how expensive the service bills for a smartphone were before companies realized they were the most powerful spyware tool in history.)

There was never a time where every single businesswoman in New York carried a DS Lite, but adults did buy and use them, and a not insignificant portion of the DS's software library is aimed at a casual adult audience. Another niche covered mostly by smartphone games these days—games designed to be picked up and played in short sessions on-the-go, in places like waiting rooms and subway commutes.

Nintendo made crazy bank in the seventh console generation. Publications of the time talked about a console war between Sony, Microsoft, and Nintendo, but the real battle was between the PS3 and the Xbox 360 over the gamer demographic. Nintendo was producing hardware for a niche who would quietly disappear once smartphone sales began ballooning by hundreds of millions per year over the course of the early 2010s.

After the failure of the Wii U, Nintendo's marketing strategy pivoted again, though I doubt they'll ever completely abandon their family-friendly image. Currently beat out only by the PS2 and the DS, the Nintendo Switch may very well climb to a status as the best-selling console of all time before the end of its lifespan, but the "gamer" demographic is much bigger than it was two decades ago at the dawn of the DS. As more and more devices become consolidated into the Swiss army knife the smartphone has become, consoles can only carve out a role as dedicated gaming machines.

I'm not sure we'll ever see anything like the Nintendo DS or the Wii again. I think they're worth looking back on for their uniqueness in that way as much as they are for the more celebrated parts of their libraries.

Johnvira HC's ♡

Note: I'm in dire need to make some Johnvira fluff after not writing for ages, so I'm doing this to get back into the grove. I do hope you're enjoy the HC's ❤️

Ps. This gif is how he looks at Elvira 🥹

After Elvira got woken up from her cyro state coma, Price offered her to stay at his home whenever they were off duty.

He knew that waking up 38 years later was hard, mentally draining and all things above that. He knew she needed someone.

Price didn't want Elvira to be alone in a accommodation where all she knew had changed so drastically in a blink of an eye for her.

Luckily he had a spare bedroom in his flat which he didn't use much, turning it into a bedroom for her.

No matter how many times Elvira offered to pay rent, or anything else he straight up refused.

"I'm doing this for you, love."

He was there she needed a cry, for some comfort, no matter how late it was. He was there for her.

Ghost, Gaz and Soap always joked around that Price was smitten for Elvira and they were right.

It didn't take long for Price and Elvira to get together, nor sleep together for that matter.

Price also introduced her to his parents, both of them adored her. Even to the point his mum pulled out the baby / teenage photos.

Despite it leaving Price embarrassed, Elvira found it funny and cute seeing all of the photos.

Price introduced Elvira to Video Games one day to cheer her up, and to help her use it as a form of distraction. He showed her the cozy games I.E Animal Crossing, Nintendogs, the most famous one and little farming games like Harvest Moon. Ect.

Although Price isn't much of a gamer himself due to his work, but it is a perfect way to wind down whenever he's off duty. Even if it was rare moment for himself.

Price got back into playing video games a little bit more because of Elvira, and her enthusiasm with discorving each game every time when they had an opportunity to.

Elvira fell in love with the games immediately and always played them, he also introduced her to more sction packed games and FPS.

Admittingly it made his heart melt with excitment, joy seeing her so excited about video games. And so he showed her nearly all video games that had been released.

Whenever Elvira is stressed she takes her anger out of FPS games, whenever she has an opportunity to use a Sniper.

But also finds the comfort in gaming wether it would be a co-op game with Price or single player.

There had been many times where Price and Elvira played video games until late in the night. And be tired the next day.

But in the end it was worth it as both of them spent time together.

Due to Elvira's occasionally sleep paralysis, he always makes sure she wouldn't fall asleep on her back.

Witnessing it once, Price had never been so scared in his life. When it was all over he stayed up all night watching over her.

An excuse to always keep her in his broad arms as the two sleep together in bed.

Sometimes hearing her sleep talk was funny and cute, hr even tease her whenever she woke up the next morning "did you get the bear?" He'd always say with a tease

even when she tried to get out of bed and walk around. He always gently guide her back to bed.

Price would always rub her back, rub his hands through her hair or even stroking her arm to help her sleep.

And always he is the big spoon ;)

[internetmisfitsworld]

ahh so there's another trailer drops. it showed makarov's mama receiving letter from him. makes me happy tho because i've always headcanon him as mama's boy so, thank you activision for that.

also, it's really cute that she packs some stuff for him. suits, snacks and a goddamn ps5 controller agagaga i know it's probably not serious and just a promotional for ps but it's funny to think makarov as a gamer boy agagagag.

imagine him raging on some poor kid for trolling him 💀

"What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you little bitch? I'll have you know I graduated top of my class in the VDV, and I've been involved in numerous secret raids on Al-Quaeda, and I have over 300 confirmed kills. I am trained in guerilla warfare and I'm the top sniper in the entire Russian armed forces. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the fuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of spies across the Russia and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You're fucking dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that's just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the Spetsnaz and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little "clever" comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn't, you didn't, and now you're paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit fury all over you and you will drown in it. You're fucking dead, kiddo."

Happy International Women's Day to one of the most badass video game ladies that I've ever had the pleasure of cosplaying as. 👩♀️💖

When I think about which characters resonate with me the most, Rise Kujikawa is at the top of the list. I really related to her inner struggle with regard to her expressing her sexuality and openness. It's been over a decade now since I last played Persona 4 Golden, but I often find myself thinking about Rise and how much her backstory impacted me when I was going through undergrad.

I struggled with my own sense of worth and body image growing up, and it wasn't until I was in university that I gained the confidence to put myself put there. It was through the love and support of my close friends that I was able to find my voice and truly face and conquer my Shadow, my true self. It's through accepting every part of me that I'm able to walk forward into the future with a firm sense of conviction that allows me to push forward no matter what life throws at me.

As I play through Persona 3 again, I'm reminded of just how important this series is to me not only as a gamer, but also as a cosplayer and person in general. The magic of experiencing the world of Persona has helped me immeasurably, and I thank my lucky stars each day that my good friend jose.colon.9659283 on Instagram recommended Persona 4 Golden as the first PS Vita game I should play. 🥰❤️‍🔥

It's through acknowledging your Shadow, your inner self, that you're able to find peace and serenity. When you open your heart and mind and welcome in the joys surrounding you, you're able to truly live your best life. ❤️

Something we need to address.

Very strong image for the start of a blog, I admit. Although I have blocked words out for personal reasons. I needed to discuss publicly how although I am anti-harassment, this type of "Callout in tags" and mentions of "complaining" when setting boundaries is absolutely disgusting. I will be writing my horror/thriller fanfic, I even started it when the votes were settled yesterday. But this is my genuine moment of taking a breath in and sighing. I was hesitant over whether I should even talk about this on Tumblr or not but there are very few TeruAoi fanfics on the tag and the fanfics on it are horrible outside of my own. I'd love to see less and less of this type of fanfics. This is the fifth one I see online. You are allowed to disagree with my "joke" headcanon as it all started from a typo which made me gain mutuals, but I like both cis and trans Aoi. Can we start a challenge with fluffy TeruAoi writing? Just one day other writers on the tag write fluff for them. Anything, small drabbles really. Life isn't entirely about sex and smut, I'm not going to dictate what you can and can't read, but please try to provide other types of content. Spamming a tag with an already bad reputation and using my headcanons to directly call me out is simply mean and uncalled for. So I'll create a tag called "TeruAoi challenge" and hopefully, before the end of 2023, other people will have joined in. Thank you, truly. Sincerely, a desperate TeruAoi-er. PS: If you need sfw TeruAoi fanfics, here are all the ones I've proofread or written to make sure they're not problematic in any other way then the original manga. If the writers are horribly problematic, just tell me. One - https://archiveofourown.org/works/35769124 Very little mention of TeruAoi but it parallels HanaNene Two - https://archiveofourown.org/works/37620811/chapters/93907264

The fanfic that made me ship TeruAoi Three - https://archiveofourown.org/works/47864101 Written by one of my old friends, a genuinely sweet fanfic. Four - https://archiveofourown.org/works/48853798/chapters/123241390 Fanfic written by me, it's an alternative universe where both have numerous count kills, and their pretty privileges are always used to their advantage but when put against each other, they are unable to fight. Five- https://archiveofourown.org/works/50115895 When I saw this fic pop, I screamed happily. Six - https://archiveofourown.org/works/50275678 Written by me again, it's just a TeruAoi sleepover with gamer Teru. Seventh - https://archiveofourown.org/works/50809261 This one feeds the TeruAoiKaners but the mentions of TeruAoi in this poly couple is absolutely adorable.
