Ahh, console video games (or vidcons as I call them). the ultimate medium of expression, able to convey any emotion ranging from hatred to love, loyalty to fear, all in front of our eyes. Ah, and with lovingly crafted art, music, and the ability to control the action, vidcons are the ultimate combination of the high arts. While I tend to play the stoic, I will be the first to admit that vidcons haven driven me to cry, to scream and shout, to feel actual hate; such is the power of this force beyond our wildest reckoning. And here I am, before you, to temp your tongues with the taint of such a tantalizing topic.
And the Japanese, the true geniuses behind the world of video games. Pah, I throw my scorn upon such incompetents of the West who would mock the true art of the Japanese with 'games' such as Baldur's Gate and Madden. Perhaps it is that the West is not as intelligent as the East, but this is a matter for another day. Japan has given us such masterpieces as the Final Fantasy series, Star Ocean, Wild Arms, and of course, Arc the Lad. Yes, some of the finest vidcons in the world were created by Japanese. I come to you today to ask you in all earnesty, what is your favorite vidcon? I will reveal mine after the grand debate has illustriously begun, but not before the first poster falls victim to my plot of discussion.
In other words, this is a thread on an imaginary forum our avatars frequent. The topic can fluctuate, and its mostly just general discussion.
see you, space cowboy.

What exactly is an "inkling", if I may ask?
"Don't cry because it's over, cry because it happened."
DRAT, MY CAPSLOCK KEY IS JAMMED. MUST HAVE BEEN FROM THE BATTLE BEFORE...
ANYWAY, INKLINGS ARE THESE ANNOYING AND HORRIBLE CREATURES WHO KEEP TRYING TO TAKE OVER MY TURF! LIKE, NOT COOL, MAN!

That sounds terrible! I have to fight off troublemakers as well. There are these six monsters from my town known as the "Matsuno Sextuplets". They are ravenous beasts; pure chaotic evil. Master Iyami built me to resemble one of them so that when I wreak havoc, the townsfolk will mistake me for one of them.

AN IMPOSTOR, HUH? SOMEONE THAT RESEMBLES YOUR ENEMY... MAYBE I CAN MIX UP ONE OF THOSE... WAIT, I ALREADY HAVE THE OCTOLINGS... AAARRGH I FORGOT!!!

It is this octopus. Apparently his caps lock key got stuck.
"Don't cry because it's over, cry because it happened."
Iris points at DJ Octavio, but since this is the internet nobody can see her do that.
His shouting. Although according to him that's Caps Lock, whatever that is.
YEAH, MY CAPSLOCK KEY IS BROKEN, ALONG WITH THE REST OF MY SHIP HERE. I GOT DROP-BEAT BY ANOTHER FLIPPIN' INKLING! THIRD ONE THIS WEEK, UGH...

Caps Lock is a key that, when pressed, makes everything you type into capital letters. I do know a fair amount about computers, given that, in a way, I am one.
"Don't cry because it's over, cry because it happened."
Don't step on the flowers.
Oh dear, what happened with your ship?

That is an awful shame. It reminds me of the time I combusted. I looked like a broken Kelpo toy. But then, Master Iyami fixed me up....so maybe he can do the same for you.

Artificial life? That's to be expected. Most things are artificial now. How is everyone?

Artificial life? Oh, it must be me you are referring to.

I'M GOOD, EXCEPT FOR THE FACT THAT MY SHIP IS BROKEN AND I'M NOW FLOPPED UPSIDE-DOWN— WAIT, WHERE ARE YOU STUPID INKLINGS TAKING ME TO

In case you're wondering, the Inklings took Octavio away after they defeated him. Anyway, good night, everyone.

Hopefully our friend makes it out of their predicament. Whatever that was about.
Good night.

I have no context, but I imagine he's about to be sentenced to death.

Sentenced to death? How brutal...
"YOU SHALL FEEL THE FLOWER'S WRATH"
Do not worry. I have learned to live with my condition. I wouldn't call it much of a curse, although it has brought me grief a few times.
I am grateful for some of the advantages it has brought me. While most of my memories do get forgotten, I can use some of my power to remember what I have learned.
