[Sollux smirks, leaning over the back of the couch with the controller, eyes intently staring at the screen.]

Videogames, dude.

[He picks the car that has the most pleasing arrangement of red and blue and acceptable stats and is done with it. At least from what he can tell of the random ratings on the screen.]

I'm wreck you.

[metabee]

That's what you think, dude. It's ON.

[Metabee made sure to select his best track before Sollux managed to take over the menu controls again. and leaned forward in his seat as the level loaded up.]

[nitrodamus]

[It takes about a lap for Sollux to start figuring things out, and then another lap for him to catch up. By the end of the third lap, though, he's getting very close to schooling the heck out of Metabee. Watch yourself, bro.]

[He is also smirking quite a bit.]

[metabee]

[Metabee is not a quiet gamer, and get progressively louder and more agitated the better Sollux does. By the third lap he is basically falling off the couch he is leaning so far toward the TV.]

What the heck, man? There is NO WAY you can be this good. It has got to be illegal or something.

[nitrodamus]

[Sollux, in the past, would have been snarky more than loud (Karkat had always been the loud one) but with his limited vocabulary it's hard to pull that off.]

More good at you.

[Wow burn. He sticks out his grey tongue though his fangs. Moments later, he blitzes past the finishing line, about three seconds ahead of Metabee.]

[He cheers something in Alternian.]

[metabee]

NO! NO WAY MAN!

[Metabee fell back on the couch, dropping the controller on the seat next to him, almost too baffled to sulk properly]

HOW are you this good?!? That shouldn't be possible, dude! You sure you didn't use your alien mind powers to cheat or something?

[Did Sollux have alien mind powers? Metabee was pretty sure Karkat had mentioned something about alien mind powers.]

[nitrodamus]

[He grins, slightly.]

Good for videogames.

[metabee]

Ok, first off, it's good AT videogames! Second, there is no way I'm letting some alien first-timer show me up!

[He grabbed his controller in an irritated snatch and navigated the menu to a more difficult track, hoping he could catch Sollux with some of the gimmicks.]
