"I'm gonna be honest with you guys," said Summer, leaning against the desk as per usual at the start of the class with a little bit of a shrug, "this week's class isn't going to be focused too much on how fuck-y the multiverse could get, but it'll be another one just looking at the diversity of the multiverse, in a way that definitely doesn't have anything to do with me being too lazy to put anything else together right now. Look, it's been a rough month, and sometimes, you just gotta take a trip on over to Blips and Chitz for a class, because why the fuck not?

"What is Blips and Chitz, you may ask?" she continued. "It's pretty much my universe's answer to Dave & Buster's in space, so a giant, sometimes planet-covering arcade filled with all sorts of games, prizes, food and booze. It's a class, so I suggest you avoid the booze, but I've got cards loaded with credits for you guys so you can play whatever you want an experience a vast array of media that maybe be just slightly similar to something in your own dimensions but just a little different, while being around a lot of different aliens from all across my galaxy.

"If there aren't any questions before we go, I'll pull up the portal and we'll just go have some fun for a bit and, I don't know, just to make things feel a little more class-like, try to, like, think about how even in the infinity of space, big loud consumerism is still a driving force and blah blah blah capitalism, or something. Or how some of us were kids this weekend, and this is a place where you don't have to be a physical child to tap into that childhood nostalgia or love of games and fun. I don't know. It's a space arcade field trip, it doesn't have to be that deep, but your assignment today is to pretend that it is."

Being a kid again, obvi.

Not a whole lot to prepare you for on this one, but if there are any questions before heading out to Space Dave & Busters, speak now, or forever be drowned out by the sound of hundreds of video games all going on at once over the drone of sports and loud dad rock.

As mentioned, Blips and Chitz is an incredibly popular chain of adult-focused video game arcades throughout Summer's galaxy, featuring a wide variety of state of the art games and attractions, overpriced bar food, and alcohol, and she had footed the bill to give everyone a playing card with a butt load of credits on it to spend at will. Hey, maybe you'll even earn enough prize tickets to get yourself a Vindicators pencil topper or a Two Brothers bouncy ball!

Of course, the crowd favorite is still Roy: A Life Well Lived, a reality simulator where you play as Roy and guide him through his day-to-day, but the latest upgrade in the sequel Roy 2: Dave is getting some attention, too.

You might want to avoid the far inferior copycat Troy, where everything is cardboard.

Please feel free to mod whatever sort of weird space consoles or meta-games you'd like, but good luck getting the skinny teenagers and the one surprisingly agile space blob off the Dance Dance Evolution! machines.

She's mostly just keeping an eye on everyone, but you know she has to sneak in a few rounds at Asteroid Shooter 5000 and, when push comes to shove, Big Buck Hunter, only it's with alien deer that have two heads and their antlers shoot lasers.
