“Welco ho, sweetie!” Brenda greeted her son, the mont he closed the door behind him. She erged from her part of the house and looked him up and down. “How are you?”
“Great!” he responded truthfully.
“You look like it… you look really healthy. Going outside gave you a bit of colour.” She nodded a few tis to herself.
John had gotten the slightest bit of a tan, but what she was noticing was certainly everything the increased Stats had done to him. It must have been just mild enough not to trigger any alarm bells with her or Gaia was preventing her from doing so.
“Hope it was fun? Did you hang out with that girl so more?” Brenda asked.
“G-girlfriend,” John corrected and his mom happily clapped her hands together. “We finally got together today.”
“Oh my, I’m proud of you! Just make sure you don’t take the rose-tinted glasses for granted, alright sweetie?” she walked over and gave his chin a motherly pinch. “It's easy to fall in and out of love when you’re young, so think a lot about what you see in her, alright? And bring her over soti soon!”
“I will ask her,” John promised and yawned. “Can I grab sothing from the fridge?”
“Yeah, there should be leftovers. I still cooked for two. Old habits and all that.” Excited, she tapped from one foot onto the other. “Oh, I just have to tell your father about this! You go ahead and eat and play your video gas. Sounds like you earned it.”
John wasn’t too sure what to make of the way this news spread so quickly from one parent to the other. Besides that, he was happy to follow his mom’s recomndation. Taking the leftovers with him, he vanished in his room.
The sll of his room was rancid, after hanging out with Rave for two days. The scattered objects all around, the accumulated dust, none of that had ever bothered him. Now he imagined Rave coming over and seeing all of it and he imdiately turned red. “I’ll have to clean this up,” he thought and put the backpack down. He was vaguely aware of the bottle of hair removal in there. ‘Is there a similar product for other areas?’ he wondered. He wasn’t a fan of the armpit hair or anything below the neck really. He could have been a fan of a beard, if he was capable of growing one.
Permanently removing all of that would be nice. To rub his smooth skin against Rave’s, to feel as much of her as possible, it was a fantastic ntal image and rembered sensation.
“I’ll start cleaning up my life tomorrow,” he thought out loud. He had gone through enough today. Ti for video gas, food, and Youtube videos about the importance of tadpoles to the ecosystem.
While his PC was booting up, he opened his Character Sheet again. Nothing new there, just the Skill Evolution Point still lying around. What an SEP was useful for, he might as well find out right now.
Tapping the counter caused a couple of signs to appear next to a select few Skills. None of the Passive Skills were available and neither were Observe, the two I.D. Skills, Enchant or Craft. He tried Create I.D. anyway, just to see what the system would return.
