chillMaiden: The TV remote’s under the couch. Lift it up for me?
DazeMage: wha?? im a builder not a servant!!
chillMaiden: You promised.
DazeMage: i did, didnt i…
You glance down over the loft railing. Sure enough, your couch has started glowing a faint emerald green, and starts to levitate upwards.
So this is the power of video games…?
You float down to the main floor and swiftly pick up the remote, setting it on the coffee table before climbing back to the loft. As you make your way up, Marisa drops the couch. You hear the floorboards creak beneath the weight.

DazeMage: sorry!!! getting used to the object select tool.
chillMaiden: It’s fine. Nothing broken. Yet…
DazeMage: so what else do you want?
———
If she can just lift and move objects, then really what are the limits of this strange magical game?
You get a perfect idea.

chillMaiden: Marisa, it’s your favorite.
chillMaiden: Stealing.
DazeMage: Yo???
chillMaiden: The Moriya Shrine’s donation box… I’m finally getting paid.
DazeMage: you got it boss!
———
That rival shrine needed to be taken down a peg. It’s not like they’re hurting for cash with that shrine in town, they actually get real traffic. So you don’t think they’ll mind. Besides, if Marisa deletes the box afterwards, none will be the wiser.
———
DazeMage: shoot.
chillMaiden: What’s wrong?
DazeMage: I can’t move the cursor or camera too far from the source of the client…
chillMaiden: You win this one, Byakuren…
chillMaiden: Fine. Just build me a new donation box, then? The one out there’s been around since forever, and it’s rusty…
DazeMage: aye aye
———
You hear the telltale sound of deletion, praying that she didn’t mess up the depth this time…
You wonder. Marisa called this an “RPG”, but what the heck is the objective of the game? And why don’t you get to DO anything?
———
chillMaiden: So what are we actually SUPPOSED to build?
DazeMage: After I’m done with this bin, I’ll deploy the toolsets.
DazeMage: One more issue. I can’t make a lid for the box. You can’t build from thin air, and you can’t build with physics properties.
chillMaiden: How the hell am I going to lock it away from thieves, then?
DazeMage: we’ll figure something out.
DazeMage: aaaaaaand done.
DazeMage: while that was going on, Aya just dropped off the morning paper. its probably about the meteors tonight…
DazeMage: standing by! tell me when you’re ready to deploy the real toys. at least the ones in the manual. it keeps alluding to unlocking more down the line…

Amusing thing, this game.
