Aggro? What are you talking about? [ Stop using your weird slang on him!! Thankfully, Roland understands context just fine, so he doesn't miss a beat on his controller, watching the dragon jump right back into the fray as Tidus pelts it with arrow after arrow. He uses up his final ether, because there's no way he was going to risk it when they're this close. He sees the pattern, the distinct tell when it's about to give them a window to shoot. His mage is just as badly damaged, with one or two hits more before he might see a game over screen, but he's laser focused. The cool-down animation starts up and he's already charged for a final Blizzard move. ]

You're mine.

[ He lets the combo finish and it hits its mark. The dragon feels the full assault of a fully charged spell and the dragon begins to stagger for one final time, an animation transitioning smoothly into the foreground as flash after flash of light cover the screen. As soon as it roars, Roland uncharacteristically shouts out a "Yes! Alright!", finally sounding in line with the youthfulness of his visage. Like a kid who just finished his first video game. He even air pumps on final time, and the cartoon slowly fades in after a brief loading screen. He drops his controller unceremoniously against his lap as he sits back down. ]

My heart is beating way too fast. I feel like I just ran a marathon. We did it. We actually did it.

[ The VR headpiece is still on, but Roland still cranes his head to look at Tidus with a grin on his face regardless. WHAT A TIME TO BE ALIVE. ]
