Andrea Marguiles has posed:
Andrea Marguiles took a train into Manhattan, and that's where she is. Uptown near a big university, she slips into an old school arcade. Her clothing is a compromise. She has some sort of black suit on underneath a fun yellow tank top and denim skirt, keeping from getting stiff in the weather.

Kyani Kohanna has posed:
    Having been delivering packages most of the morning, there was another package he had to take to the Old Skools Arcade in Manhattan. Walking in through the doors with a box, the owner sees Kyani and gestures for him to come to the main counter, the two speak for a few moments and Kyani has the owner sign the iPad he has with him and he is also given a tip by the owner. "Thanks Charlie." he says and with that. Kyani buys a Mountain Dew, though he gets it free and Kyani begins walking around, he sees Andrea and nods his head to her. "Hello."
    

Andrea Marguiles has posed:
Andrea Marguiles is in the middle of getting some tokens changed when she's address. "Oh hi," she smiles, her tails bouncing when her head turns. "I thought most of the college students were still sleeping." she laughs before stepping up to a pinball machine.

Kyani Kohanna has posed:
    Drinking his soda, Kyani laughs as he drinks more of his soda. "I'm not a college student, never went." he laughs as he gestures to his messenger bag, "I'm working or well on break right now." he tells her. "So your a pinball enthusiast?" he asks.

Andrea Marguiles has posed:
Andrea Marguiles snickers, as she drops a token in, and leans foward over the machine. Bracing herself against it, one hand on each side. "I've never actually played it before in my life. Not you know, a real one. Only video games."

Kyani Kohanna has posed:
    He nods his head as he watches her and he looks to the game as she begins, "I've played here and there." he says to her as she begins playing. He stretches and finishes off his soda and leaves to go get another. "So do you go to school around here or no?" he asks.

Andrea Marguiles has posed:
Andrea Marguiles smiles. "I'm in high school, in a private school in the suburbs. She clings tightly, getting up on her toes as she starts playing. Tilting a little with her whole body, as she gets kind of into it. But she keeps talking as she stares at the game, bent over it. "So I guess I'm right, and it's just everyone else who gets to play today."

Kyani Kohanna has posed:
    Kyani watches Andrea and he stretches out a bit and looks to her and the game watching how well she plays, "Cool, you close to graduating?" he asks. "Is the school any good?" he asks curious knowing that there are a ton of private schools in New York, some more exclusive than others.

Andrea Marguiles has posed:
Andrea Marguiles nods. "Yeah, this is my last year," she explains with a grunt as she continues to tap at the buttons, all the clicking and sound effects going off. Biting her lip. "It's a good school, but it's unconventional." Then the ball drops and she sighs heavily.

Kyani Kohanna has posed:
    "Come on you got this." he encourages her on her game. "Awesome, I'm sure your parents will be happy with you getting ready to graduate." he smiles always happy to hear about people having good thigns happen for them. "Any plans for after graduation?" he akss.

Andrea Marguiles has posed:
Andrea Marguiles giggles softly, glancing over. "Thank you, but playing on a real machine is waaaay different from playing a video game pinball." She then tries again, holding her breath as she starts. "I don't even know, depends on what opportunities I get." She does not say a WORD about parents.

Kyani Kohanna has posed:
    He nods his head, "No prob, that's why I'm not in college, didn't really find anything I want to persue yet, and honestly I'm doing pretty good doing my job so haven't really thought much about it." he says to her. He does notice she doesn't mention anything about her parents. He doesn't continue on that line, respecting her privacy. "So you're a gamer?" he asks. "Obvious question, but some people are casuals and than you have your gamers." eh chuckles.

Andrea Marguiles has posed:
Andrea Marguiles giggles softly, a little breathy as she's focused on the game, and getting into it. The machine shaking slightly as she, on her toes, tries to get a little leverage. Grunting quietly. "I guess, I think people try to put a lot into that word, but I like video games.. and I play them a lot."

Kyani Kohanna has posed:
    "We will have to hook up sometime online and play than." he laughs as he watches and he can't help but laugh as Andrea gets into the game. He shakes his head and checks her score and his brow raises checking out her score, "Damn girl get it!" he says as he moves up along the game but not getting in her way. "I think you're right, people do put too much emphasis on what types of gamers there are, but I'm just doing what I love and what I have fun doing."

Andrea Marguiles has posed:
Andrea Marguiles fails again, and sighs. "Alright, one more ball." she giggles. Biting her lip, she pulls back very carefully, fingers gripping, eyes intent, then she lets go and starts again. "So did you just come here for work, and now it's a good spot for a break?"

Kyani Kohanna has posed:
    Kyani is just enjoying this way too much and when she loses her ball, he shakes his head. "This was my last delivery before my break, so seeing as I like chillin' in fun places, and meeting a chill person, why not." he says as he looks to her. The door opens up and a new arcade game comes in, he quirks a brow and sees it's Street Fighter V. The game is setup in a new spot, "Oh hell yeah." he says. "You into fighters?"

Andrea Marguiles has posed:
Andrea Marguiles shrugs. "Yes and no. I mean, I've tried them. Dhalsim is so under powered, and that put me off of Street Fighter and stuff," she explains not having lookd up, still focused on her game. Hips shaking as she trise to hang onto this ball. "But I've tried most games, at least once. You like those then?"

Kyani Kohanna has posed:
    "Well we will check it out." he says to her. Still watching Andrea play, he sees the focus on her face as she is trying to up her score, "Yup, adn you will like Dhalsim in the new game, if they just brought in Champion Edition, he's been buffed. Still focus on this." he says to her. "Come on now beat the current high score."

Andrea Marguiles has posed:
Andrea Marguiles giggles and tries, but fails, she then slighs, shaking her head. Turning to face Kyani, leaning her hip. "I'm Andrea by the way, hi."

Kyani Kohanna has posed:
    Kyani reaches out and holds out his hand to her, "Nice to meet you Andrea, I'm Kyani." he says to her. "You did pretty good, though if you're good on the video game pinball, you can get just as good on this one too." he says to her. "So you interested in another game?" he asks with a smirk.

Andrea Marguiles has posed:
Andrea Marguiles takes a deep breath, considering. "Sure, I have plenty of tokens left," she'll giggle, walking up to Kyani, placing her hand to his. "Kyani, that's a nice name. So what game would you like to play?"

Kyani Kohanna has posed:
    Kyani shakes her hand and begins to let it go if she does and he walks over towards the Street Fighter V machine, he watches it for a moment and smiles as it's Championship Edition, "Charlie thanks man!" he calls out and he puts in tokens for both him and Andrea. "You ready?" he asks.

Andrea Marguiles has posed:
Andrea Marguiles laughs. "Alright, we can play," she giggles, coming up to one side of the machine. "Well, let's see. I'm sure if you love these games it'll be quick..."

Kyani Kohanna has posed:
    Kyani laughs and he slings his messenger back behind him and he picks Ken, and waits for Andrea to pick her player. "So how much longer until you graduate?" he asks her.

Andrea Marguiles has posed:
Andrea Marguiles snickers. "Months, but it feels like forever," she smiles. Picking Dhalsim of course, as she said. "So you done with work after this?"

Kyani Kohanna has posed:
    He nods his head, "Well you got this, finish up and than you can do whatever." he says to her. The game starts and he starts getting into the game. "I pretty much set my own hours for the most part. Why whats up?" he asks.

Andrea Marguiles has posed:
Andrea Marguiles giggles and she's doing her best to use stretchy long reach, but she's not played much, and is rather ineffective. "Just wondering if you wanted to get some pizza or something, you know?"

Kyani Kohanna has posed:
    Kyani is watching how Andrea plays and he grins at her as he jabs some of her long range attacks and begins putting pressure on her, "Sure, I'm down for whatever." he tells her. The first round is over pretty quickly. He than watches as they start the second round, and he begins playing defensively.

Andrea Marguiles has posed:
Andrea Marguiles glances over briefly as the second rounds starts. "Oh come on, now you're toying with me," she giggles, shifting her hips really jamming at the joystick, her fingers gripping it tightly. "You live around here or?"

Kyani Kohanna has posed:
    Laughing ensues, "I have to give you a chance at least right." he says to her. "Besides, I want to see that focus increase and see how well you can get into Dhalsim." he says and goes into a low to Fierce Dragon Punch combo taking away half her characters health. "I don't live too far why?" he asks.

Andrea Marguiles has posed:
Andrea Marguiles grunts when he actually starts attacking again. "No don't hold back," she breaths. "Just curious, if you know what's the best cheap pizza place around here."

Kyani Kohanna has posed:
    He nods his head when she tells him not to hold back, and he doesn't he goes in on her setting her up but than taking a few hits as he starts a combo but misses a button which will allow for her to take advantage. "I know of a few places, we can go after this match." he says as he focuses on the game.

Andrea Marguiles has posed:
Andrea Marguiles does her best, starting to breathe a bit harder, under the tension of the direct competition. Getting up on her toes again, she bounces around a bit... but it's not really helping. She tries, but she's not doing combos.

Kyani Kohanna has posed:
    Kyani is hit a few times but he catches her as she jumps and punishes her character and ends the round. He grins, "That was pretty fun." he says looking over to Andrea as she is still on her tiptoes. "You wanna go again or get food?" he asks her.

Andrea Marguiles has posed:
Andrea Marguiles giggles, and sighs. "Well that's all the tokens I bought, so it'd be a good time to get food. I'm hungry today. Didn't eat all morning since I was taking the train down here."

Kyani Kohanna has posed:
    He nods his head and gestures for Andrea to follow him. He stretches a bit as they walk towards the door. He does look at what Andrea is wearing notices the black leggins and the skirt. He than looks out the door opening it. "Follow me." he says to her.

    Once they are outside, he turns to his left and begins walking down the street, "I will take care of food, it's a pretty nice day out we can sit outside or go to the park and eat if you want."
