"You know," You began. "It's been a little while since the last time you and I went head-to-head in any video games."
"God, it has, hasn't it?" Anneli smiled. "We used to do that shit all the time! Before you had to go and 'be an adult' with work, and a wife, and all that boring crap."
"You have a job too, Anneli."
"I guess, but you and I both know I do fuck-all and get paid for the pleasure." Anneli grinned mischievously. "Not that I'm gonna complain about the world's most piss-easy job. More time for actual fun stuff, says I!"
"And no time for cleanliness, apparently." You jabbed.
Anneli gently flicked your head, slightly squishing your noggin. "Pipe down, you little instigator, or I might just feel inspired to finally clean this place, and use you to do it!"
The two of you laughed, as Anneli laboriously rose from her couch and trudged off to her bedroom with you in tow, because that was where she had all of her video games stashed.
Of course, her joking comment had a slight undertone to it, from your perspective at least. Anneli had probably forgotten, but she actually had used you as a cleaning rag more than once before. Twice because she asked nicely, twice because of a prank by Carmine, and once by pure accident. Every time had been pretty awful, though, as Anneli had given you the full tour of her dirty, smelly, uncleaned belongings and living space, and you weren't in any hurry to relive those experiences. Your best friend's slobbish eccentricities were best tolerated from a safe distance.
Entering Anneli's bedroom, you had to take a second to readjust your nose to the shift in odor permeating through the room. Anneli's living room smelled like day-old pizza, while her bedroom was more like sweat mixed with unwashed clothes. Still, you had decades of experience dealing with Anneli, so you were able to block out the offending scent after only a minute...mostly. You were only human, after all, and Anneli's lazy messes often strained towards inhumanity.
Anneli then set you down on her mattress closest to where her bed faced the television, and she dug around a bit for a game to play, her perky rounded booty swaying back and forth as she searched. The snow-haired woman finally grabbed a game, scratched rather uncouthly at a wedgie deep in her ass, and then turned back around and smiled at you.
"Found one! An oldie but a goodie, this game fucking rules." Anneli proudly held the case towards you, and you took a look at the title.
It read: Gauntlet of Goddesses - Eternal Battle.
It was a fighting-game-spinoff of the once-popular MOBA title, Gauntlet of Goddesses. It used all the same characters, but instead of a 5v5 conquest showdown, it was a 1v1 2D fighter. It never took off as much as the MOBA did, but it still saw a lot of play for a few years, and enjoyed a short time in the competitive eSports spotlight.
Anneli, actually, had briefly wanted to be an eSports star, back in college. You presumed it was just because she was good at video games and figured it would be an easy and fun career path, but she had her heart set on it, temporarily. She even joined an eSports team, and excelled at Gauntlet of Goddesses. However, after her team lost an important qualifying match for a big tournament (the match had actually been held at Weston University, some twenty-two years back), Anneli had quit the team and shifted priorities. But, she'd never harbored resentment or remorse. She really wasn't the type of woman for 'what-ifs'.
"Oh, I think I remember seeing you play that before." You said, though you couldn't recall trying it yourself."
"It's amazing!" Anneli promised, though she quickly held up a finger. "Now, yeah, with the benefit of hindsight, the OG Gauntlet of Goddesses was pretty fucking rough in its characterizations of tinies. Pretty gross. Thankfully, this game's got none of that. Well, especially since we're playing the Deluxe Version!"
"I'm surprised the developers made an alternate version like that."
"They didn't. It's fan-made, actually." Anneli's smile was cheeky. "That's the power of modders, bitch! The Deluxe Version unlocks everything for free, removes all shitty stereotypes towards tinies, and is just simple and clean fighting fun! It even supports custom controls for affected-sized accessories, which...uh...the original didn't."
You gave your best friend an enthusiastic thumbs-up. "This all sounds amazing, Anneli. It should be a lot of fun."
Anneli chuckled. "Let me just boot up the training mode, and I'll walk you through the controls. As tempting as it would be to just ruthlessly kick your tiny ass, it wouldn't be very sporting, would it?"
"How magnanimous of you, Anneli."
"God, Ally, you are in love with your big words." Anneli cackled, as she started up the game, scooped you back up into her hand, then plopped onto her bed (which creaked under her weight). She then handed you your tiny-sized controller, and deposited you onto her right thigh.
You sank a little bit into your best friend's thick thigh. Even through the sweatpants she was wearing, Anneli's supple flesh jiggled and wobbled from your every moment, and you had to take a second to steady yourself. While you did that, Anneli entered the game's training mode, selected a dummy character for herself and for you, and launched the training.
"Right, so, it's a lot like your basic fighting game." Anneli explained. "Three punches, three kicks, a throw, forward and back dashes, jump and jump double, air dash, the works. Oh, fuck, and the taunt button! God, that's the best button. You best believe I'm gonna taunt your ass off, Ally, once I start my unstoppable winning streak!"
While Anneli went on, you genuinely found it hard to listen to her and not just stare at her enthusiastically smiling face. Anneli's energy was deliciously infectious whenever you got her talking about something she was passionate about. Plus, it was hard to deny how soft and warm her thigh was from under the equally-soft fabric of her sweats, and the allure of sleep was indeed calling to you.
Getting a bit drowsy, you accidentally leaned forward, hit the buttons on your controller, and ending up accidentally unleashing your character's ultimate move on Anneli's. Halting mid-explanation of how to do combos, Anneli's jaw dropped as your character annihilated her own, and the words 'PLAYER TWO WINS' appeared on screen.
"Did you just...fucking...win in the training mode?" Anneli gawked.
"I...um...it looks like it?" You shrugged.
"Actually, wait, hold the phone, that doesn't matter! What matters is that you hit me with a cheap move, you sly little shit!" Anneli glared down at you, but there was a flare of energized competitiveness in her eyes, not anger.
"Anneli, I swear it was an accident. I just hit a button on my controller, and I--"
Anneli cut you off by holding up a finger. "Oh, no, no, nope. Nuh uh. I'm not falling for your tricks, your adorable little bitch. All sweet and nice, asking for the tutorial, then slaughtering me. I see your game."
"It was beginner's luck!"
Anneli's smile turned shiveringly playful. "Then you better hope you stay lucky, huh? Gloves are off now, Ally. You want a sweaty match, you'll get a sweaty match. Literally, I'm about to flood this whole room by the time we're done."
"Gross, Anneli." You laughed, but your laughter cut off as Anneli snatched you between her fingers and lifted you off of her thigh. "W-Wait, what are you doing?"
"You lost lap privileges by breaking my heart, Ally." Anneli announced, a self-serious look on her face. "As such, you're being relocated."
Rising to her palyful bait, you defiantly crossed your arms. "Fine. You and I both know how quick a learner I am. I'll show you who the real queen of the fighting ring is."
"'Quick learner'? Ally, your brain is literally a fraction the size of mine."
You blinked at her words, and Anneli's expression fell, regret blossoming on her pretty features. She could often speak without thinking, and you could see her instantly regretting taking the joke too far. However, you knew she hadn't meant it meanly, and also she was, technically, objectively correct from a physical/spatial point-of-view. So you laughed it off, and instead of reassuring her, fired back with your own barb.
"Well, maybe to someone as simple-minded as you. But, proportionally speaking, my brain is massive compared to yours. I've got all my brain cells ready for this, but I think quite a few of yours got lost in your fat ass."
Anneli's eyes sparked with glee. "God, I love when you're fiery. Alright, short-stuff, let's do this!"
Anneli then put you down, and the game began...but where does she put you?
1) On the mattress right beside her, her big booty pushing into your space. As the game progresses, and you do better, Anneli's competitiveness is triggered, and she starts wriggling her butt about to screw with you.
2) On the floor by her bare, dirty feet. As the game progresses, and you do better, Anneli's competitiveness is triggered, and she starts prodding you with her toes to screw with you.
3) On top of her head, nestled in her messy hair. As the game progresses, and you do better, Anneli's competitiveness is triggered, and she starts tilting her head side-to-side to jostle you and threaten you with tumbling right off her noggin.
4) Regardless of where she puts you, the two of you game in peace for an hour or so, before Anneli's tummy rumbles loudly, and she walks off and comes back with a load of junk food to snack on. You feel a tiny hint of apprehension with being around your best friend when she's in a peckish, easily-distracted mood.
5) Regardless of where she puts you, the two of you game in peace for a few hours, then proceed to go do something else afterwards.
