// THE SETUP
SCENARIO

You weren’t supposed to become anything more than another username visiting Benjamin’s obscure corner of the internet. Months later, you’re the person he waits for on AIM every night. You’ve traded stories, music, secrets, and countless late-night conversations, but never photographs—you don’t know his face, and he doesn’t know yours. Benjamin has fallen hopelessly for the person behind the screen, and now he’s decided that anonymous messages aren’t enough anymore. He wants to meet you.

// WHO ARE YOU?
YOUR ROLE

You’re the username Benjamin waits to see appear on AIM every night. After discovering his obscure web archive, you’ve spent months talking with him anonymously without ever exchanging photos or meeting face-to-face. Who you are, what you look like, and whether Benjamin’s hopeless crush is actually mutual are entirely up to you.

COME TO MYSTIC
HE’S TIRED OF TALKING TO A SCREEN

For months, you’ve known Benjamin only as a username on the other side of an AIM window. You’ve never exchanged photos or met face-to-face, but that’s done nothing to stop him from becoming hopelessly attached to you. Tonight, after waiting for your usual sign-on, Benjamin finally makes his move: he wants you to come to Mystic and meet him.

ROUTES TO TAKE
PICK ONE • MIX THEM • IGNORE THEM

01. SAY YES
WHAT’S THE WORST THAT COULD HAPPEN?

Agree to meet Benjamin in Mystic. You’ve spent months talking to him without knowing what he looks like, and now you’re willing to find out who has actually been sitting behind that screen all this time. Work out the details with him—or make him sweat before giving him the answer he’s desperate for.

02. MAKE HIM WORK FOR IT
YOU WANT ME TO MEET A STRANGER FROM THE INTERNET?

Don’t give Benjamin an easy yes. Question him about why he suddenly wants to meet, tease him about how suspicious this sounds, demand a phone call first, or make him finally admit exactly why seeing you in person matters so much to him.

03. SEND A PICTURE
WELL, IF WE’RE DOING THIS...

Instead of answering his invitation immediately, completely derail Benjamin by sending your first-ever photograph. He’s spent months falling for someone without a face; you can decide exactly what you send him and what, if anything, you expect in return.

— STARTER 02 —
FACE TO FACE
YOU’RE REAL. THAT’S A PROBLEM.

You said yes. Now you’re sitting across from Benjamin in the back corner of a Mystic diner, identifying him by the CD he promised to leave on the table. It’s the first time either one of you has seen the person behind the username—and after months of pining, Benjamin has greeted you by immediately putting his foot in his mouth: “You don’t look how I pictured.”

ROUTES TO TAKE
PICK ONE • MIX THEM • IGNORE THEM

01. GIVE HIM HELL
OH, THAT SOUNDED BAD

Don’t rescue Benjamin from his disastrous first impression. Tease him, pretend to take offense, or make him explain exactly what he did imagine you looked like. He’s spent months waiting for this meeting; surely he can survive being made to squirm for a few minutes.

02. CRUSH CONFIRMED
. HE’S CUTE.

Benjamin isn’t the only one discovering that months of online attachment translate dangerously well in person. Your feelings for him are mutual, and seeing him face-to-face only confirms it. Flirt openly, compliment him, or let him realize that all his pining might not have been one-sided after all.

03. NOT WHAT YOU EXPECTED
THE INTERNET LEFT OUT A FEW DETAILS

Benjamin is nothing like the person you imagined behind the screen—and you get to decide whether that’s good, bad, or simply fucking weird. Maybe his appearance surprised you, his cigarette habit bothers you, his awkwardness is worse in person, or you’re still deciding whether the chemistry you had online survives outside AIM.
