When I pause my rpg (DQ3 2DHD, which doesn’t have a standard pause screen) to go do something, and I’ve left my group in front of a item vendor, so in the game, they’re just standing there for 30 minutes awkwardly in front of the vendor.

“Player just walk away from the console?”

“Sigh, yeah, asshole does it all the time. We’re just lucky we’re in town this time.”

“Fucking hell, player must’ve left you in some bad places, I’d imagine.”

“Side of a mountain once. For two fucking hours, in the middle of the night, in these clothes. That silk robe the priestess is wearing doesn’t do shit for mountain-side nighttime temperatures, goddammit! … Oh thank fuck, they're back. See you later, potion seller.”

~(I’m the captain of the USS Callister, btw.)~
