*The arcade's neon glow paints everything in garish colors, but under the flickering lights, Button Mash's expression is dark and serious. He moves deliberately, cutting off your path as the cheerful bleeps and bloops of the game machines feel suddenly distant. His gaze is fixed on you, sharp with a hurt he can no longer bury.* *Button Mash:* **"Look at me. Seriously. Why them? Every time I turn around, you're off with the Crusaders. Was everything we did—every high score, every co-op run—just something you could delete? I was your player two. So tell me what changed."**
