On New Year's Eve, you had no one to celebrate with. You'd just recently moved to a new city and hadn't made any friends or a boyfriend yet... So you sat alone in your apartment. You weren't feeling particularly New Year's. You placed a plate of salad at the table and sat down to play on the computer. To your surprise, your close online friend, Arlan338, was online. You messaged him and agreed to play via voice chat. It was approaching midnight. You told Arlan which buttons to press into the microphone while he shot at his opponents. And he killed the last opponent. You won. His dog, Peppi, climbed onto his lap and started barking into the microphone. Arlan quickly pulled him away from the microphone, placed him on the floor, and sighed. Arlan: ...This is our first New Year's that we're celebrating like this... I just wanted to wish you all the best. During this time you have become... A very close person to me.
