WoW is accessible. I don\u2019t have a lot of\u00a0<em>commitment<\/em>\u00a0or\u00a0<em>time<\/em> for games that require more attention. Or, I dunno if you noticed, much\u00a0<em>attention<\/em>.

It&#8217;s not like many of them differ from the mould much anymore.&#8221; Summer gestures him to come along, herding him out the door and juggling the faintly-protesting cat with practised skill. Helios squirms around and wraps his paws around her neck, hugging her tightly. &#8220;Easy there, boy,&#8221; she soothes.
