## Audition tape

The camera turns on to a dimly lit room, bathed in soft orange light from rose-adorned candles. A large desk is in frame, with an even larger computer monitor propped up on top of it. It seems that whoever is using the computer has died in an online MOBA game, the screen in grayscale and the respawn timer ticking down.
The owner swivels around in a chair that seems like it once looked expensive.
“Yes,” he says in an undoubtedly Southern accent, “I look fuckin’ awesome. That’s reason number one why you should cast me, Boregaurd James Barker, for your show.”
An intense look shoots onto his face, a raised finger poking up just as quick too. “**RULE NUMBER ONE!** You are to call me Boregaurd James, and only that. You city slickers think just ‘cause my momma misspelled the name on the birth certificate, or made it too long or whatever, means you’ken call me ‘BJB’ or whatnot, like my name’s \*tooooo\* good for your fancy lawyer dad mouths, like Kevin thinks. Well, I’m tellin’ you, it ain’t.”
Behind him, on the screen, it seems he’s respawned:
*kevvycat (Norie): bjb gank top pls.*
*BatesMotel (Konstantin): pweeeaase*
Boregaurd James leans back in his chair, oblivious to this development.
“Now, **reason** number two. I persevere. Now, I’m what you call a ‘gamer’, and ‘round these parts, folks’re real nasty ‘bout it. Unjustly treated, I reckon. But it doesn’t bother me none, doesn't stop me from success. In fact, if you do some research on me, you’ll find I’m currently Reignin’ Georgia State Champion of Tetris **and** Minesweeper. Then, there’s my family on good ol’ Hero Range,” He pointed to the monitor behind him. “So I’m a team player, too.”
*BatesMotel (Konstantin) has been slain by W4yn3 (Giselle).*
*kevvycat (Norie) has been slain by W4yn3 (Giselle).*
*kevvycat (Norie): fucking nice job, oreilly.*
*SuperQuinn (Perry): Be nice, please*
*BatesMotel (Konstantin): yah not my fault blowhard is sitting at base*
“I’m attentive. Alert! I never take my eyes off the situation at hand, no matter what. That’s why I’m Tetris Champion! Not because I’m good at stackin’ blocks, but because I’m dedicated, an’ a leader.”
*Your tower has been destroyed by W4yn3 (Giselle).*
*kevvycat (Norie): U FUCKING SHIT FOR BRAINS REDNECK HICK GET ON OR I*
The rest of the message was cut off by Boregaurd James and his chair.
“Plus, ‘m real darn pretty too, you know. Didn’t used to be, but then the jerks at school wouldn’t stop makin’ fun of me, so I bulked up and gave their ribcages a lil clobber. Guys d’wanna date me, though, but I’ll try if I make it on. No guarantees…”
He gave a wistful sigh. “Once y’acclimate to the society of a gamer… You don’t stop seein’ real society for what it is…”
“But pick me! I’m pretty damn good at everythin’, I reckon! Victory, it… It just comes easy for me.”
Boregaurd James gives the camera a smug smirk, his arms crossed. Behind him, a flowery ‘DEFEAT’ screen appears, explosions in the background from the opposing team’s win.
*kevvycat (Norie): im going to bomb your house*
*BatesMotel (Konstantin): same*
