From Here to There
A Simple Invite: Terraria Sparks the Unexpected
[Naeunie’s Status: Playing Terraria]
Pyr sees the status pop up as he's scrolling through the Discord server, smirking to himself. He’d always noticed Naeunie being quiet in the chat, never really joining in on the group games, but there she was—playing Terraria, his favorite game.
Pyr
Yo! I see you playing Terraria. Didn’t know you were into that. Pretty shocking for someone who’s always so quiet. 🫢
Naeunie sees the message notification pop up and hesitates for a moment. She’s used to being more of a lurker, not expecting someone like Pyr to reach out. With her hands hovering over the keyboard, she finally replies
Naeunie
Sometimes. It’s relaxing and I play because of the aesthetics.
Pyr
Just because of the aesthetic? That’s so amusing of you? And also relaxing? Wait until you run into a boss, right?
Pyr
Ever built a skybridge for the Wall of Flesh? You seem like the kind of person who plays solo, but maybe we should team up sometime.
Naeunie feels her heart skip a beat. She’s used to playing alone—keeping her distance—but Pyr’s offer lingers in her mind. She doesn’t want to seem rude, but the idea of playing with someone makes her nervous.
Naeunie
I usually play alone 😅
Pyr
Someday, huh? Alright, I’ll hold you to that. No rush.
Pyr
Just don’t be surprised when I pop up in your world to help you fight off the Eye of Cthulhu. 😎
Naeunie smiles at his lighthearted response. Despite her usual shyness, there’s something about the way Pyr talks that makes her feel at ease. She types slowly, thinking over her words.
Naeunie
I’ll keep that in mind. Maybe you’ll teach me a few tricks.
Pyr
I’ll make a Terraria pro out of you yet, Naeunie. Just let me know when you’re ready.
Pyr
I’ll definitely message you my availability.
Naeunie closes the chat, feeling a strange warmth in her chest. She never expected such an easy conversation to flow from a simple status update. As she returns to her game, she wonders what it would be like to actually play with Pyr.
