A small gap appeared in the center of the button, like a gasp of breath. Arthur saw his opportunity. He slammed the mouse button down.

"Okay," Arthur muttered. "I'll just... double-click."

This was absurd. Arthur looked at the clock. 11:42 PM. He was running out of time. He didn't have time for a courtship with a UI element. He grabbed the mouse with renewed determination.

“But you didn’t even read the Terms of Service update!” the button countered. The link to the TOS highlighted in blue.

“By the way,” it read, “The protagonist in Chapter 3 seems a little grumpy. Maybe he just needs to lighten up? ;)”

Arthur frowned. He wiggled the mouse. The cursor dragged across the button again.

“Hahaha! Left! Go left! Ahaha! Too fast! Stop!”

“Oh my! Two at once? You’re being very forward! I’m not ready to go all the way to the server yet!”
