Nazerthst wakes up, surprisingly having slept AMAZING!!! He hops out of bed, a spring in his step that carries him across his bedroom to his PlayStation— OH MY GOSH!?!?!?
Nazerthst’s hands shoot up to each side of his head, covering his ears as his mouth hangs open in shock and his eyes don’t dare to blink.
GTA VI is illuminated on his screen in bright colours. His hands scramble to grab the controller, clicking on the screen. There’s a note as he opens the game.
Dear Nazerthst,
You’ve been locking in on the PlayStation, that’s GREAT! We here at the gaming studios who developed GTA VI think you’ll be the PERFECT gamer to play the early release version of GTA VI (No one else has EVER played this game before, you’ll be the FIRST IN THE WORLD!). We hope you enjoy this, and remember— you’re AWESOME SAUCE!
From the Gaming Studios,
Nazerthst rereads the text on the screen again and again, the shock turned to excitement. He gets to be the first ever person to play GTA VI… HOLY SHIIIIII—
Nazerthst drops the controller and does a Super-Mario-Fist-Bump-Jump in the air, screaming
YAHHHHHOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nazerthst starts doing the jig with his foot, chanting over and over and over:
“I GET TO PLAY GTA VI! I GET TO PLAY GTA VI! I GET TO PLAY GTA VI!”

Nazerthst
Sure idm

Nazerthst then nonchalantly sits down on his gaming chair, exiting GTA VI then selecting Fortnight. He proceeds to ignore GTA VI’s existence as he gets victory royales and dabs on noob’s dead bodies.
At noon he gets a text.

Lando Norris
Hey Nazerthst, I heard you’re my number one fan. I’ll be picking you up from your house in five minutes. I’ve got a surprise for you!

Nazerthst screams, then screams, then rushes into the bathroom to brush his teeth, then screams once more, then drinks some honey tea because his throat got sore.
The. LANDO. NORRIS. Has. A. Surprise. For. Him.
He. Gets. To. Meet. The. Greatest. Formula. One. Player. EVER!!!!!!!
EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Ding-Dong
Nazerthst sprints comically to the door but before he can open it the door abruptly goes off the hinges, ceremoniously falling forward to reveal a race car driver with a cape.
Lando pulls off his helmet, tossing it to a stunned Nazerthst who grasps on to the helmet to make sure he isn’t dreaming.
”You ready kid? — Or should I say Unc? “ Lando announces.
”Huh?!” Nazerthst stares, confused on how this adult older than him is calling him Unc.
”I hacked into your WhatApp,” Lando explains a little too casually. “Let’s go, I’ve got a race to win,”
Lando winks before running back towards a helicopter, Nazerthst follows, jumping into the passenger seat, bubbling with excitement.
”Wait— if you hacked my WhatsApp… does that mean…?” Nazerthst asks, nervously trailing off.
”Don’t worry Nazerthst, your AO3 private bookmarks have been left untouched,” Lando announces, he pulls out two iPads from a bag,”Speaking of AO3; When there’s a screen, AO3 shall be seen!”
Lando passes Nazerthst the iPad as he gently places down the helmet.
”Thanks Lando. You’re the best!” Nazerthst replies, his face glowing from awe in Lando Norris’s presence.
The teenager and grown adult then have some AO3 reading time before riding at the race track.
”What do you say Unc— want to start the race?” Lando asks.
Nazerthst beams with joy. Two seconds later he’s holding a flag and a massive megaphone.
”Three… Two… One… GO!” Nazerthst yells into the megaphone, waving the flag down.
All the race cars speed off, and Nazerthst cheers as Lando crosses the line first. Lando exits his race car and runs over to Nazerthst, squeezing him in a massive bear hug.
”YOU DID IT!” Nazerthst screams.
”I DID IT ALL THANKS TO YOU!” Lando responds.
Both guys cry from joy and they jump together in a circle. Nazerthst’s legs then start to wobble, he then passes out.
Lando gently places Nazerthst down on a nearby bench, worry frozen on his face. He calls out for a medic but before the medic arrives Nazerthst’s eyes are already open again.
“You just fainted! Are you alright Nazerthst?” Lando asks, his face anxious.
”Don’t worry Lando, my body just is like that sometimes— but this is the BEST DAY EVER!! F1 FOR THE WIN!!!!!!” Nazerthst screams, smiling.
Both men hug once more and laugh until their stomachs are sore.
