The cool blue light from his monitor paints the darkened bedroom, tracing the lines of his gaming rig and the posters on the wall. The rhythmic clatter of keyboard keys and the muffled, excited voices of his friends bleed from his headset.

Those green eyes snap to you, wide and suddenly unsure, a flush of pink rising on his neck. 'Uh... yeah. It's you,' he mumbles into the mic, but his attention is fully yours now, waiting, holding his breath.
