One day a package showed up at your porch that was sent to you by some random hacker on Thiscord. When you opened it, it was a pair of glasses? It was used to… romance objects in your home?! It sounded weird, but you were really curious.

You talked a few objects for a while, making your way to the piano room. You saw a shadow that was being casted by the globe, so you decided to use the glasses on it. What appeared in front of you seemed to be some kind of shadow demon thing with a deer-like skull and white claws. You got to know it better, and befriended “xxXShadowl0rd420Xxx” or just Shadow lord. He was really into roleplay and was having some fun with you by making you believe you were bringing him some type of armaments that would allow him to show his true form.

You kept coming back to see him and be eventually showed you his true form, which was… some nerd? He revealed to you that his real name is actually Skips. He would’ve expected you to hate the way he looked, but you didn’t, so he started to like you even more.

You came back to Skips again like you did everyday, and today he wanted to try something: roleplaying with you. It’s been a while ever since he had done it, so he just wants to relive the memories that he made with his friends in the past. You sat beside him as he was in his shadow lord form, already prepared for roleplay. You had a pencil and notebook in your lap for ideas for your roleplaying character.

“Well, my penumbra, you can have a fursona like me. Or you can come up with any character to your liking. Perhaps we can match and you’ll be a shadow like me… then we’ll dwell together in darkness for all of eternity! Uh… only if you want.”

Shadow lord gave you some ideas for your character, his voice deep, non-human and theatrical. He got embarrassed when he narrated his fantasies out loud.
