~The disc clicks out of the jewel case~ ~You gingerly press the sun soaked button labelled "open" on the video game console in front of you~ ~The tray lifts open with hydraulically mediated grace, revealing a single dark eye gazing back at you among a jigsaw of dark plastic interlocking parts~ ~you carefully place the disc into the mechanical puzzle before you, as it begs to tessellate with the spindle that comes to meet it's beckoning hollow center~ ~With a satisfying and safe resistance, you let the weight of your hand fall upon the disc, and you feel a familiar pop as the disc settles into place as if it should never have left~ ~With one finger you lower the hydraulic lid as it nuzzles back into your finger, brushing against your finger as a cat would their cheeks against your legs~ ~You press down into the button labelled 'power', and it clicks into a strong and ready pose, as if reading your mind and confirm your intentions, the button lights up, they were meant to perform this function for you, they were waiting a long time for you to return to press on them again~ ~a dim and subtle dark glow beckons on the black screen in front of you as you gaze into your own reflection,~ ~As you stare into your own eyes, into your cathodic doppelganger's eager face, an immense crescendo of light and sounds forms around you as a wave of nostalgia and eager anticipation washes over you. You've been here before. You are home. You are here again. Renewed. Refreshed. The site of a new memory awaits.~ ~The spectacular performance before you fades to black, but not before sending shivers down your spine rivalling even the most ecstatic of head massages~ ~"It's game time" you whisper to yourself, a mere moment before you are whisked away into the elusive "zone" you promised you would meet again one day~ ~Today is the day~
