"Then I'll guess i'll start at the very beginning."Desman responded in the sad tone he had recently adopted. "I was not what you would call an average child, I was extraordinary smart for my age, or so I've been told, must of been true considering I finished high school at the age of twelve. Anyway, due to this I never really interacted with anyone, I was too shy with everyone around me being significantly older. But then, then there was nexus," The root paused to remember how good he was, allowing enough time for a dramatic effect. "Normal intellect, popular, my brother... He was the only one I could ever truly call my friend. Fast forward to when I was 17 years of age, I got invited to VR testing site, what for doesn't matter, what does matter was that I could choose a pus one to come with me, and of course, I choose Nexus, that's when things started to go wrong. Unknown to us a hacker got into the system and unleashed a virus. When we logged ourselves into the mainframe, the virus quickly took over, locking us in, giving our nerve sensors a bonus 'push', making whatever happened to the our game avatars happen to our real life bodies, many were killed in the first few hours. What was left feared only one thing, the player hunters. They were the most powerful enemies in the game, being able to be randomly encountered anywhere, and I was the first one to do so. We had just set up camp and the players had split up into groups of two to do the various tasks needed to survive, me and Nexus were on guard duty, it was a dense forest so he could see who had appeared, when he stepped into the clearing of the camp..." Desman looked up sobbing. "He was one-shotted in the heart, killed in real life by a computer enemy."

A lot of things went through Ash's head as he told his story, none of them being things that a 'friend' would have been thinking while listening to his sob story. The Storm Demon was comparing his story with her own; more accurately of what she knew of her own world's history. There were a lot of holes, and nothing people could fill them with. Mostly because at some point, the whole world went black once. No VR, Matrix, nothing. Something to do with AIs and such, she never got into it really. She's read stories and theories, but other than the ones in her games she didn't want to touch those programs.
VIs were bad enough as it was, having to use whatever backdoor she had access to in order to avoid big fights. She did it all the time.
But VR for here is harmless. Because VR for her and the VR here and apparently the VR for Desman were all different. To them, sounded like they were talking about hot SIMS. It was dangerous, but you were so much faster. It was addictive as hell. But you could die. You could die in cold SIMS. But it's easier than that.
This VR, however, was closer to her VR but that wasn’t saying much because she still had to Jack In. Still, it was relatively harmless.
Her mind quickly righted itself, she had to respond to his sad story. Which she would admit was pretty sad. Being forced to play someone’s twisted game and losing your brother - the only person who seemed to be anything to him - in the process did suck. However, Ash has long since lost her sense of empathy for this kind of stuff, along with sympathy and whatever else have you. That said she still knew the motions and debated on just giving him what he wanted. If she was going to keep on good terms with the two, she might as well.
Ash pulled him into her chest, her naked top seeming trivial at the moment, and pat him on the back but let him have that good cry that people needed.
After he eventually calmed to just a sniffle ever couple breaths, Ash decided pity was the next step. Although it was hard to call it pity. Despite it being VR he had been kind of a badass. "Well... Seeing how you had to save me, I suppose that means you won the game. So the prize is yours to collect whenever." It was easier to admit defeat when she already had what she wanted to begin with.
"Pr-prize? Oh yeah, that." To be honest, Des hadn't thought about what he would use his prize for, just just to avoid Ash getting it. When he had thought of something his charisma suddenly returned, making what little was left with crying unnoticeable. "How about we save that for later? Who knows what opportunities we may need it for."

So you know... normal stuff
