If   You   Stand   For   Nothing,   What   Do   You   Fall   For?
Summary
'In 2004, the folks at Penny Arcade decided they wanted a show exclusively for gaming. Sure, comics, anime, and other nerd hobbies were cool, and those activities all had their own shows… so what about games? From that idea spawned a small 4,500 person event in Bellevue, Washington, focused on the culture and community that is gaming.Since then, the show hasn’t looked back. Doubling in size each year until venue capacities were reached, in 2010 the show expanded into Boston for PAX East, drawing tens of thousands of attendees in the inaugural year. The shows in Seattle and Boston represent the two largest gaming events in North America!'PAX East was the time of the year when tens if not hundreds of YouTubers would meet in large rooms full of fans. That was the dream, to get to be Mark or Jack. Perhaps even Felix? For the DerpCrew, however, it was sometimes just an excuse to make a gross amount of Vlogs and collaboration videos. Still, they'd meet plenty of fans along the way. But tensions were slowly rising, and all it took was a mask, a carton of soy milk, and at least four bottles of alcohol to make everything start moving. And, once things start, it is sometimes hard to stop.

Stutter Babies

Adam felt his heart fill with an odd kind of joy as he sees Steven's expression briefly flash with a strangled sadness. The lies on his tongue felt natural, but heavy, as he knew that Anthony's feelings were not true to his own statements. His lips kept moving, the naturalness of it almost shocking him. He had trained for that moment for such a long time, but then it was happening. He felt a good kind of warm, one that you would feel if you were sick and someone you love brought you a blanket and chicken noodle soup. Steven said something, Adam didn't really pay attention to what it was, and got up, walking out of the room, a painfully forced smile beautifully arranged on his face. Adam felt the feelings swell in his heart, he felt at peace. Standing up, he walked out of the room as well, before heading to Anthony's room. Knocking on the door lightly, he coughed, hoping Anthony would hear either noise.

"Anthony? You in there?" Anthony looked up from his phone and walked over to the door, his hand pausing at the shiny bronze handle. Something in the back of his mind said not to open the door, but he pushed it away, twisting the doorknob and pulling open the door. Adam stood there, a bright, cheery grin on his face. 

"Did you need something?", Anthony asks, tilting his head. Adam nodded, before entering the room, Anthony getting out of his way.

"Hey... I think maybe... Can I ask you about something?"

"Uh, sure, buddy." Adam paused then, biting his own lip softly as he tried to think of the right words to say.

"W-Well... Uh, aha... Ch- Anthony. Anthony. Can I... talk to you? I mean... As in somewhere else. Can we go out. ...To eat!" He mentally cursed himself for stumbling over his words before finally continuing.

"Anthony, can we go out to eat so that we can talk?" Anthony laughed, putting his phone in his back jeans pocket.

"Sure, bud! I'm guessing you don't want the rest of the crew coming with?" Adam nodded sheepishly.

"Alright, its chill. Uh... Wanna maybe just... Go to Lafayette?"

"Laf-?"

"Oh! Its a, uh, neat little breakfast place. You'll like it."

"S-Sure!" Anthony smiled before shooing Adam out of his room so that they could both change into street clothes. Anthony was just slipping his shoes on when Adam knocked on his door again.

"You ready?", Adam piped, and Anthony responded with a bright laugh.

"Just about!" He finished tying his shoes and skipped out of the room. It was still fairly early, and GaLm and Smarty weren't awake. Adam told Anthony that Steven was awake, but they hadn't seen him while getting ready. Adam opened the front door of the apartment for Anthony, who gladly stepped through, and they were off.
