[6:00 p.m.] TheAce sends friend request to BlizzardQueen

[6:07 p.m.] BlizzardQueen accepts friend request

[TheAce//6:10 p.m.] Hey, just wanted to say, your avatar looks amazing. 

[BlizzardQueen//6:11 p.m.] Awh, thank you. I spent a lot of time working on it. Your pretty low level, did you just start today?

[TheAce//6:12 p.m.] Yeah, my friend wanted me to play the game with him, so here I am. You seem to be experienced, how long have you been playing?

[BlizzardQueen//6:13 p.m.] I know I may sound like a nerd, but I’ve been playing Legends of Atlas for about 3 months now. Basically it’s been my summer thing.

[TheAce//6:14 p.m.] Oh that’s cool, you're pretty high level for someone who’s been playing for so little haha.

[BlizzardQueen//6:15 p.m.] I know right? No mean to brag, but I was able to get into the fourth strongest guild in the game lol. They helped me with the leveling process a bit. 

[TheAce//6:16 p.m.] Damn, how were you able to get in?

[BlizzardQueen//6:17 p.m.] Well you know, I do get some advantages in the gaming world, being a girl and all.

[TheAce//6:18 p.m.] Oh, so you are a girl?

[BlizzardQueen//6:19 p.m.] Is my avatar a girl?

[TheAce//6:19 p.m.] I mean…yeah, but you’ve been playing this game for three months, I know that you know that guys use girl avatars all the time.

[BlizzardQueen//6:20 p.m.] Lol, you're not wrong. But yeah I’m a girl, assuming that’s one of the reasons you messaged me.

[TheAce//6:21 p.m.] Not at all, I really did think your avatar looked really cool. And besides it would be beneficial for me to befriend a high level anyway lol.

[BlizzardQueen//6:22 p.m.] Sooooo you're using me for personal gain.

[TheAce//6:23 p.m.] No no, that’s not what I mean at all. I’m just trying to say I didn’t just add you because you're a girl.

[BlizzardQueen//6:24 p.m.] Relax, I’m just messing with you, but I am a little bored right now. So lucky for you, I’m willing to do some quest with you right now.

[TheAce//6:25 p.m.] Ok, I’ll send you a party invite.

[BlizzardQueen//6:26 p.m.] Ok, I got it. So where too?

[TheAce//6:27 p.m.] To Evergreen Forest we go, I need to kill some cursed imps.

[BlizzardQueen//6:28 p.m.] Well I can just one shot them if you want, how do you feel about that?

Help support creative writers by finding and reading their stories on the original site.

[TheAce//6:29 p.m.] Nah, I want to do it on my own. It’s more rewarding.

[BlizzardQueen//6:30 p.m.] Ew, your one of those people who love the actual work of leveling up.

[TheAce//6:31 p.m.] Lol, call me old fashioned, but yeah I do.

[BlizzardQueen//6:32 p.m.] Well, nothing wrong with that, but what do you expect me to do? Just watch you?

[TheAce//6:33 p.m.] Woah, you should be lucky to even witness someone as great as me lay dust to these creatures.

[BlizzardQueen//6:34 p.m.] Ooooo, you're right, you're so amazing. Let me bow to you, the all powerful haha.

[TheAce//6:35 p.m.] Lmao, I’m glad you realize the respect I deserve.

[BlizzardQueen//6:36 p.m.] Yeah... but in all honesty it is kind of relaxing to see low levels start out. Gives you a bit of nostalgia.

[TheAce//6:37 p.m.] Yeah I suppose it does. But hey, who are you calling a low level? I might be at a low level now, but give me a bit of time and I’ll be stronger than you.

[BlizzardQueen//6:38 p.m.] Is that a challenge? You do know I’m only 20 levels shy of being the highest level in the game right? 

[TheAce//6:39 p.m.] Doesn’t matter. Your level 80 right? I’ll reach that level before you reach level 100.

[BlizzardQueen//6:40 p.m.] Are you a cocky little brat in real life too? 

[TheAce//6:41 p.m.] My stance on that is that you're only cocky if you can’t back it up. I call what I have confidence.

[BlizzardQueen//6:42 p.m.] There's an extra thin line between those two traits that you're dancing on kid.

[TheAce//6:43 p.m.] Maybe lol, but why do you assume I’m a kid? I can be an adult for all you know.

[BlizzardQueen//6:44 p.m.] Well, you just remind me of someone, that’s all, and that someone is a kid lol. And don’t even ask, not in the mood to tell.

[TheAce//6:45 p.m.] Wasn’t even going to go there, but it’s an honor that I remind you of that person...unless you don’t like that person.

[BlizzardQueen//6:46 p.m.] I admire the attempt of trying to pry a bit more, but unfortunately for you it’ll stay just like that, an attempt. Maybe in the future kid.

[TheAce//6:47 p.m.] Haha, can’t blame a guy for trying.

[TheAce//6:50 p.m.] Hey, you specified the future, so does that mean you accept the challenge?

[BlizzardQueen//7:00 p.m.] Ugh, fine. You're lucky I’m so competitive. But I don’t have to do this, so I want a reward when I win.

[TheAce//7:05 p.m.] You say something like that and have the AUDACITY to call me cocky? 

[BlizzardQueen//7:06 p.m.] Oh whatever, tell me the reward or you can play this random little game with someone else.

[TheAce//7:07 p.m.] Hm, I really have no idea. What exactly do you want?

[BlizzardQueen//7:08 p.m.] I want any favor of my choice, don’t worry I won’t ask you for stuff in real life or anything. I just can’t think of anything right now, but a favor can be anything I want, I might change my mind in the future of what I want so asking for a favor is the best possible thing to ask for. Don’t you think?

[TheAce//7:09 p.m.] Wow, that is a good reason to ask for a favor, I never thought of it like that.

[BlizzardQueen//7:10 p.m.] Woah, you act like you're surprised. My brilliant intelligence must have startled you, you can back out anytime you want.

[TheAce//7:11 p.m.] Nah, no way. I accept your terms. I guess whoever wins gets any favor they want from the other person. 

[BlizzardQueen//7:12 p.m.] It’s a deal. Don’t even try to weasel out of it.

[TheAce//7:16 p.m.] No way I’m a man of my word, I’m already level 2. That’s what I call progress.

[BlizzardQueen//7:20 p.m.] Lol, the early levels are always the easiest. Is this your first mmorpg or something?

[TheAce//7:21 p.m.] No way, mmorpgs are my childhood. I’ve played quite a few.

[BlizzardQueen//7:22 p.m.] Interesting, well so have I. I don’t know, I just always enjoyed them. 

[TheAce//7:24 p.m] What’s not to enjoy about them, you can play as cool characters who fight for justice. And they’re so time-consuming that you can never get bored. 

[BlizzardQueen//7:25 p.m.] Maybe you're right. And listen, just because we’re doing this little challenge or whatever, doesn’t mean you can’t ask me for help in a dungeon or something.

[TheAce//7:26 p.m.] Oh, thanks. I was hoping you’d say that.

[BlizzardQueen//7:27 p.m.] And why is that?

[TheAce//7:30 p.m.] You're just fun to talk to that’s all. 

[BlizzardQueen//7:40 p.m.] Wow dude, talk about corny. 

[TheAce//7:42 p.m.] Lol, yeah whatever. I already know you feel the same way or else you wouldn’t offer to help.

[BlizzardQueen//7:43 p.m.] I just felt bad for you kid ;).

[TheAce//7:44 p.m.] Lol, well continue to feel bad for me then ;).

[BlizzardQueen//8:00 p.m.] Well, my guild’s doing a guild battle soon, so I’ll text you one day to check in on your leveling.

[TheAce//8:05 p.m.] We should do daily checkups, that way we can know that we both haven’t forgotten the challenge.

[BlizzardQueen//8:06 p.m.] Sounds like a plan, let’s set a specific time. How about 6 p.m. every night.

[TheAce//8:07 p.m.] That’s kind of early, how about 8?

[BlizzardQueen//8:08 p.m.] So sleep isn’t a thing for you? Fine, a daily checkup at 8.

[TheAce//8:09 p.m.] Haha, well I’ll cya tomorrow then. While you're doing guild battles I’ll be leveling up. I need to use any advantage I can get. 

[BlizzardQueen//8:10 p.m.] Lol, use everything you got. Your loss is inevitable.

[TheAce//8:11 p.m.] Atleast give me some hope, you're as cold as your name. 

[BlizzardQueen//8:12 p.m.] Well let me leave you frozen until tomorrow. Ciao.
