Angelic Pastimes

[can_not_fly]

[So thanks to a certain aspiring scientist, Pit has discovered the magic of... videogames! (Insert dramatic sound here). It's not hard to guess he's going to take to them like a fish to water...

[...so some time later you might find him in a corridor, talking loudly to a portable console]

...come on, Snuggles! sit! Sit! No, wait! I have treats! [The virtual pet, instead, decides to go away. Pit slumps his shoulders] Awww...
I guess pets really aren't your thing?
[Pit hangs his head even lower for a bit before shaking it and turning the console off, and putting in another game.]
Bah, whatever, that game was stupid and I didn't really want to play it anyway!
Suuuuure...
[He looks over the borrowed games] Let's see what else is here...

[Some time later, if you happen to pass by Pit's room, you'll find the door is open, and that he's managed to get ahold of an old console and connected it to the TV, and is playing it enthusiastically. More interesting, however, is that he's not playing alone - there's a beautiful, unknown greenhaired woman in a white dress holding the second controller.

And, from the sounds coming out of the room, apparently schooling his ass into next week.]

Oh come ON! You're totally watching my side of the screen! How did you even know I was there?
Oh, don't be a sore loser, Pit. It's just a game. [Her smile, however, expresses her satisfaction at winning pretty visibly]

You punched a god in the face?

[Tobia takes a long, good look at Pit.]

You have to come along next time we fight one!

[can_not_fly]

More than punched one in the face - I've actually already taken down a bunch of evil gods already! [Pit puffs up, proudly]
You shouldn't underestimate Pit just because he's cute and tiny.
Hey! [And there he deflates again]

[not_the_deer]

He's not that much shorter than me...

[can_not_fly]

And you also look much less dangerous than you are, so it all fits! [Palutena smiles happily]

[not_the_deer]

Should I start wearing an eyepatch and a pirate hat?

[can_not_fly]

Well, I dunno about dangerous, but that sure would make you look cool!
I think that'd mostly just be really tacky.

[not_the_deer]

I know someone who wears an eyepatch. Tacky is not how I'd describe him.

[can_not_fly]

Zabine Chareux? I'm not sure, he does actually seem to be kind of tacky, what with all that "Aristocracy foreverrrr" stuff [Apparently Palutena does an admirable Rabid Zabine impression, who knew.]

[not_the_deer]

I don't agree with his point of view, but he can be really intimidating at times! And he's a hell of a good pilot.
