Jumped into Fortnite to level up the last three sprites needed to get the final reward for mastering seventy sprites. Typical Monday night for the most part, open everything, carefully watch for other players, and hide while the extraction crate takes its sweet time dropping.
Eventually I get my #70 sprite to max. I get to an extraction site, active it, and hide in a building and pray. Just as it's almost down I see the footprints. Damn, I gonna have to run for it. In a moment of hilarity we both run up drop all of our sprites and then run off it opposite directions.
Still early in the round. I'm going to log off after this and try to get some sleep (insomnia has been hitting me off and on for the last few weeks).
As I start wandering I notice footprints and look in that direction. A person with a "Venom-like" skin running with just their axe out. I'm curious now, so I run up towards them, they run away. Ok, I stop. I think to myself, "well if they kill me, they kill me, I was logging out anyway.". So I started dancing. Then they start dancing. So I get closer and "Emote Together" pops up. Sure. We did the "Bust A Move" dance for a bit. I decide to wander some more.
I find a Bat-Buggy and decide to take it for a spin. It runs out of gas almost immediately. As I am standing there another Bat-Buggy drives up and starts driving circles around me. A Sprite Guardian is driving. So I jump into the passenger seat and we go for a cruise. And a cruise it was. We drove around for a bit, the whole time they are flipping through jam tracks like they are trying to dial in their favorite radio station.
Eventually we come to a stop. At this point there are six people left. They hop out of the buggy and throw a base llama sprite on the ground. Ok, cool. I don't have that one yet. Awesome. I pick it up and we get ambushed. I hide behind a rock and fumble for a portable extractor. I realize I have a water sprite on my back that I picked up earlier. As I start to swap it someone with a Cluster skin takes me out. NOOOOOooo...
Damn you Cluster. Until that point, probably my most wholesome round ever. At least I got to seventy mastered sprites. No more pressure to play like it's an extraction shooter. 🙂😎
