Interactive Fanfic [IRL FORTUNA]

You were in bed sleeping; spring break finally came and you intended to catch up on sleep. Nothing else. Sleep. It was essential to the human body and such, so when people called it a waste of time, you found it a very vital thing to have.

You wished that your friend appreciated that enough.

He seemed to need no sleep whatsoever, always stuck on that new video game called Fortuna. You were given a copy but you were still on your first game. In the tutorial Hermes had informed you about the game properly, but you really didn't have the motivation. Fortuna was complex and hard to understand.

You were snapped out of your thoughts when there was a loud klunk! Your friend was active and often did extreme late-night gaming or something. You groan and get out of bed, deciding to shoo him out of your house.

Your friend was hanging out in the office, a room that was mainly used to store random crap. You squint after turning on the lights.

God, what time is it? 2:00 AM?

Your friend stops suddenly and the thing the were sneaking through into the window crashes onto the floor, definitely waking you up. You grumble and decide to chew them out.

"Dude what the actual hell? It's late and you're sneaking crap into my house and- what are you doing?" You notice them ignoring you and opening your game of Fortuna. "Hello?"

"Oh! I'm making the Gods in the game... real!" They exclaim. You just stare at them dumbfounded.

"I have no idea what you're taking about." You reply.

"I have been working months on this. I realized that there are character files for the Gods if you clear out most of the unnecessary code. I have connected multiple wires that connect from your character to bring at least two Gods into these robot bodies that I have created!" They whip off the cloth on the thing they were sneaking into your house. An exact replica of Helios, save for a few dents from the falling.

"What-- for months? Why is Helios here? And the other God?" You barely managed to get out of your confusion.

"I chose Helios because he is your patron and that he could enlighten the world with his knowledge. I have Athena back at my house. She's too heavy to carry here." They smile, proud of themselves. "Also Hermes may or may not be active, it's been glitchy."

"Okay what?" You sigh, upset and confused.

"You'll see!" They begin contacting Helios, and he seems confused on their erratic behavior yet used to it. So they have been doing this for months. Your brain spins until all the lights go out. At first you thought that you blacked out, then you realize that the power has gone out.

"Goddamn." You hiss. Your friend flees out the window, saying something about activating in five minutes. You presume they mean Helios and he's going to activate in five minutes.

You realize that he is going to panic at the fact you're a human. In Fortuna, Humans are seen as horrific creatures that bring nothing but horror and terror. You are lucky to wear a sweater already and you grab a marker. You scribble a random letter and some numbers after it.

You also look for a mask, and settle for a plate of metal your friend left behind and draw a "»·w·«" expression onto it. Right after you put it on, you hear someone.

"What?"
