(Arcade thread for Conner and Sparrow, eventually Daken) Conner walked into the Arcade looking around for something to do. He had a pocket full of quarters and his shield in his backpack. He hoped no one was playing Pac Pong. It was one of his favorites. An oldie but goody. He still wore his usual clothes, red pants and his blue "super shirt. Though he had a black jacket to cover it up. In a way he was emulating his "big brother" Peter.

Jubilee was in the arcade playing Pac Pong. She was going for the new high score, and she was developing a small crowd behind her. But this might have been due to the fact that she was just a cute punk Chinese girl. She wore a heavily distressed dark claw t-shirt, and a pair of jeans with more holes than fabric, and a pink crop jacket. "C'mon baby! Momma needs a new high score!"

Conner walked up noticing the crowd around the girl. "Wowzers you're pretty good." he said watching her score rise. "I don't think you'll beat my score though."

Jubilee glanced over at the boy but kept her focus on the game. "Oh yeah? Are you SUP on here? Nice score. But I'm gonna break it."

As she glanced up at him Conner blushed a little not knowing why exactly. He shrugged it off and continued to watch her play. "We'll see about that."

Jubilee widened her stance on the machine, looking like she is ready for battle. She leaned into the controllers and her moved faster, she found some of her training with Claw was already helping her speed. "Oh yeah? Well watch this SUP."

"Not bad, but I'm way faster." teased Conner as he watched her play. His head turned a little noting her posture. It was odd, when he was with Peter and those girls came on to him he didn't have a reaction, but for some reason he was feeling things. Weird. This was an odd new experience. He never really got into girls even before he became Super Patriot.

Jubilee finished her game, knocking out his top score. "Allllllllright guys I did it woo!"
She raised her fist into the air in triumph the looked back over to Conner. "Care to give it another shot SUP?"

"Why not." he said with a smile as he cracked his knuckles and pulled out a pair of quarters. As the game started he immediately started using his powers just enough to make him react faster than the average human. His score was almost a five thousand within a minute of game play.

Jubilee crossed her arms as she watched, her jaw dropped. "Wow...you're really good..like really really good."
She looked over to Conner and smirked, Dark Claw was right.

Conner blushed a little when she complimented him as he continued to rack up his score."Thanks I try." He began to go a little faster, showing off for the cute girl. Peter was obviously having an influence on him.

Jubilee began cracking her knuckles. "Yeesh, this is going to be another nasty score to break."

"This is just me going easy, before I moved in with my big brother I wasn't allowed to hang at the arcade all that often." said Conner. "My name is Conner by the way."

Jubilee rolled her eyes. "That so? Yeah well I'm Jubilee, I wasn't exactly trying too hard either."

"So...um do you come here often?" It was obvious that he was failing at flirting with her. He was using Peter's advice, but even he was starting to doubt that Peter actually had that much skill. He continued to play, though his focus on Jubilee was making his reactions slower.

Jubilee gestured towards the machine. "Eyes on the prize cutie, you're not going to beat my new awesome high score if you don't. But if you really dont caaaaare..."
She stood next to him and moved in closer to watch the screen. "Sometimes, it's a pretty kickin Arcade. I'm pretty sure you come here a lot."

Conner blushed a little more when she leaned closer. He had definitely never been that close to a girl before. He tried to stay focused on beating the high score as best he could. "I come her a lot, but my visits don't usually last long. It's cool to meet someone who's just as good at video games at me."

Conner started focusing on the game as his score rose to over 82,000. He was nearing Jubilee's high score and he planned to break it. Although now it was because he wanted to impress her, not prove he was better.

Jubilee bit at the bottom of her lip. This boy was cute. She leaned in closer to his ear and whispered. "Don't worry if you don't beat my score, I think you're really impressive."
