Videogames was not particularly good at ... well, a lot of things, for one. Like moving around the group, and remembering to interact with people. The days blurred together, and each Videogames spent loitering in his residence, alone. Piecing together bits of ruined devices and scrap metal or wood to create something new. Like ... like, uh. Little knick-knacks. Or all the little accessories Videogames wore.
It was grueling work, but one Videogames enjoyed. Up until the point he realized -- oh, hey. He hasn't been outside in a while, and he literally can't walk anywhere because the floor is covered. Scrap metal in a pile, half-completed projects littered over the floor. The serval's ear twitches. He could step onto something -- and for that matter, he doesn't need this much, does he? He couldn't finish all of this. He'd just be piling more and more projects on.
It's with this decision that Videogames begins to clear out the space. Rolling whatever he can into a pile, before pulling apart the pile once more to drag out of the door. It's slow work. Some of it is ... awfully big. Bigger than him, even. Heavier, too. But he got it in, so he got it out.
Ultimately, this ends up with Videogames outside, sorting through a pile of junk. Metal, old projects, incomplete projects -- he frowns, balancing carefully on a slab of wood. It used to be a table. What would he do with a table? ... Right. Actually put stuff on. Like all of this that was surrounding him. Oh, but what about that little bracelet he was working on? He hasn't touched it in weeks. But, oh what if he decided he wanted to later? His attention span never was that good, it could happen. But what about -- no, no.
And this is how Videogames ends up sitting outside, surrounded by junk, mostly broken -- some not, but certainly without a home. And, even still, as he sorts through it all ... He just can't find anything he wants to get rid of.
What a hassle.
//this is ... ultra garbage but i just wanted to get this out there and get re-involved so. sorry (pensive emoji)

  [font=trebuchet ms]While Rin didn't spend much time forging anymore, a quantity of scrap metal as large as the pile that had collected at Videogames' door was enough to catch her eye. She had to wonder how he'd come across all of it, and what he'd wanted it for. Perhaps he was the tinkering type.

  Approaching Videogames within the pile of refuse, she swept her gaze briefly over the objects within, then looked back at him. "Cleaning house, I presume," she remarked. Either that, or he was trying to drag this entire haul into his house- and it seemed like a lot to carry at one time, so that was unlikely. "Do you need help getting rid of all this?"
