The Queen of Sapphire part 1/2.
The noise and the excitement of the Penny Arcade Expo got to Verbatim. He hated crowds and he hated noise. He was incredibly lonely when all he did was live in his mother's basement and hate the world. Verbatim hoped that by coming to PAX, he would make new friends. But now he wish he had never come at all. People were screaming with excitement jostling into him and bumping into eachother.
Verbatim tried to focus on the different booths, hoping something might catch his interest. He saw many banners and signs advertizing the big event scheduled to happen at PAX, including a special celebrity appearance by Sigourney Weaver to promote the new game of the Alien franchise: The End. Another banner advertized a new halo game: Halo xbox one 2.
Verbatim almost lost track of Camnator and Vien and panicked a little bit. But fortunately Vien's height made him easy to spot in the crowd. He ran over to Vien and shouted angrily "DON'T LEAVE ME BEHIND! I have no idea where we are going!" "Forgive me" Vien said, "But it appears Camnator knows where we are supposed to meet up with the bungie.net community." Indeed, Camnator, although he was no doubt stoned beyond belief, seemed confident that he knew where to go.
They both followed the pothead for a while, looking at the different booths along the way. Camnator kept laughing hysterically at random moments, he seemed to find the most amusement in the most trivial of things, such as trash cans, the incoherency of government, the benefits of weed, the beauty of weed, the smell of weed, the sexiness of weed, and talked about different recipes you could use weed in.
Suddenly, Camnator stopped, looked around, and then pointed and said "There they are, look I can see Foman talking to CamCamm," Verbatim looked and saw a group of people wearing namebadges with their bungie.net usernames. Foman was indeed talking to CamCamm about something. As they got closer, Foman suddenly looked up and pointed at the cieling and said "WHAT THE HELL IS THAT?". CamCamm looked up to where Foman was pointing. As she did so, Verbatim saw Foman sneak a creepshot of the underside of her chin with his cell phone. "What did you see?" the clueless mother said still looking up, "I don't see anything unusual." "Oh nothing" Foman replied, a perverted grin spread across his face. "I must have been seeing things."
There were others there as well. Recon Number 54 was sitting down at a table, talking to a few of the other forum ninjas, his weight causing the table to tilt a little bit. Spartan Ken was running around and showing off his swag with a disturbing amount of enthusiam. Others he saw were Raw Sugar, SecondClass, Elegiac, Loaf, MyNameIsCharlie, etc. Lonepaul was there with his girlfriend, who looked like she was no older than 12, which made Verbatim to a little bit queazy more reasons than just his hatred of kids.
Then he saw Harlow And JayTheNerdKid. Verbatim was hoping that Harlow wouldn't make an appearance, he really hated that stuck up piece of crap. But he noticed something strange about the two. Harlow seemed to be standing there, expressionless. He was talking to True Underdog, but his words carried no inflection, his face showed no emotion. Jay on the other hand was flamboyant and loud. Her namebadge read "JayTheNerdKid, queen of sapphire."Her laughter carried in the air like nails on chalkboard. And she was pregnant....very pregnant. In fact, Verbatim had never seen anybody so pregnant. It looked like she was going to have twins or triplets, maybe even quadruplets.
As the trio got closer, people said hello to Vien and expressed wonder at his tall stature. But Verbatim couldn't take his eyes off Jay. He never liked her, not at all. But he never felt anything uneasy about her. Now, there was something not right about her other than the fact that she is pregnant. Jay turned to look at Verbatim and smiled at him....AT him. Something in her eyes sent chills down Verbatim's spine. She waved at him and he averted his looked away, he did not want to look at her. Then he saw Camnator and was shocked to find Camnator trembling nervously.
This whole time Camnator had been jovial. High, but Jovial. Now he looked like he was petrified, as if he had seen a ghost. He too, was staring at Jay with a look of sheer horror. But then he gathered himself and joined Vien. Verbatim wondered what that was all about, but then he rejoined Camnator and Vien. After listening to Vien and Camnator chatting with some of the old floodians about PAX and about bungie.net, he noticed a pressure in his bladder. He suddenly had to go to the restroom very quickly. "Guys, I'll be right back. I hasve to piss." Verbatim told the group, then ran off to find the men's room.
After finding the men's room he opened the door and went inside and found it rather empty, which surprised him because PAX was a huge event. He expected more people to be using the restroom. But he didn't give it much thought. He went to the nearest urinal, unzipped his pants, and went about his business. When he was done he zipped back up, went over to the sink to wash his hands. He looked in the mirror and saw that his face was sweaty. He splashed water on his hands then splashed it on his face, scrubbing his cheeks with his palms. Then he grabbed a paper towel and dried his face. When he opened his eyes, he saw Jay standing right behind him, wearing the same eerie smile she gave him a few minutes ago.
