Once you go live...

Aiko woke up the next morning and took off her helmet. She remembered clearly the simulation and how fun it was playing video game for a public. But she had to go back to her studious life. After her studies she should for sure play again...

After putting on some clothes, she went back to class. On her way there, she met Kory, a classmate.

"Hi ! How was the first night with the InLiCSim ?" She asked.

Kory was one of the only persons she talked about her purchase.

"It was really fun actually, it work really well. It's impressive !"

"And so, what did you explore ?"

"What it would have been like to have more hobbies. And I ended up playing videogames on youtube. It was... fun."

"Ahahah, I can't imagine you playing video games, it's so crazy ! What are you going to explore next ?"

"I don't know, more friends, more open minded parents ?"

"You'll have to tell me how it went..."

And with that, they went to class and the cursus started. It was strangely boring to Aiko, though. Her mind was constantly back to the games she played in the simulation. It was quite annoying, her grades could take a hit, if she didn't succeed to focus. And so, the day went on and she managed to kinda get back on track.

That night also, she took the helmet and went to sleep with it.
