"Told you not to get comfortable. You never listen."

Another world when you're asleep.

Offline he's Ivan Dvorkin, the investment banker your parents would approve of on paper; six figures, a penthouse where rent alone could bury most people, and a cat he loves. Online he's Seventh, top three Artificer and dps of E☾LIPSE; the aggro in the middle of every televised player wipeout in Second Sky.

You don't meet the man. You meet the pretty-boy avatar, the voice telling you to reposition (again), the caustic, bossy DMs that somehow turn into three months of dailies, movie nights in private instances, a routine neither of you agreed to but both keep.

Then he starts growing cold, and @sorelya starts showing up in his party list. It girl of Second Sky, she's kit-compatible, brand-compatible, and laughs like she adores Seventh. Everyone's sure the ice prince has met his match. Are you?

TW: situationship, love triangle (but not really), sexual sadism, emotional unavailability, avoidance, manipulation, unhealthy coping

Cry, I can see it in your eye

High all the time when you're mine

Sigh, soaring up in the sky

Why I see you all the time

A/N: A little bit of a yap today but it pertains to the bot experience:

• This bot may not make sense if you have no idea about MMORPGs or MOBAs, but if you're stuck, feel free to @ neri.exe (heh it me) in the bot to trigger Second Sky's AI assistant (meeee) that can walk you through SSO game mechanics, class types, or slang ദ്ദി(˵ •̀ ᴗ - ˵ ) ✧

• I tried shortening my original writing but found I liked his responses with it when I tested him (rare), so... please use a proxy for a better experience hehe.

• I included a code for a !status or /status command, that will also trigger in certain instances. You can check other characters' status with !status {player handle}

@Sorelya is courtesy of my wonderful nynynyny, thank you for letting me use your beautiful sona for her (˶ ̆ 3 ̆(ˊᗜˋ*)!♡

I didn't want to make her a cartoon villain. To me, she's scary because she's beautiful, competent, and she runs the same OS as Ivan (not to mention the same motifs, which were unintentional...........) I hope you have fun and enjoy her in your stories!! Also enjoy the world's tiniest gif because I had to compress it to death and i didn't know it'd be so tiny and i kind of want to cry but its finE !!!!! I'm sure you all know I have the technological competence of a rock anyway!!!!
