It's Saturday afternoon in the spring, weather's a tiny bit overcast but still a bit on the warmer.
You were vague with Kronii about what you had in mind for today, only telling her that the two of you might be getting your hands a bit dirty since you wanted it to be a surprise.
That being said, she didn't take much convincing since she didn't have anything planned that say and part of her enjoyed it when you were a bit spontaneous.
You drive a bit until you reach your destination, and when Kronii realizes looking out the passenger side window a realization starts to manifest itself on her face.
"Wait... this isn't what I think it is, is it?"
"Yeah, it's my parents' place."
Kronii immediately starts to panic; she hadn't met the folks yet, and you can obviously tell that she's distressed by the fact that she's dressed more like she's doing some yardwork than for a first meeting.
"Don't worry, they're out of town this weekend. But we are here for something."
The bewildered expression on her face softens to a puzzled one followed by a confused-sounding "okaaaay?"
You open the garage door while she waits outside and start wheeling out the reason why you brought her over today.
"Wait, is this actually a joke?"
"Nope, it isn't."
The old man had asked earlier in the week if you'd be interested in helping him pressure-wash the place while he and your mom were out of town, and you figured you could turn this into a potential date opportunity with Kronii since you knew how many hours she sunk into a certain game.
"Figured we could take turns starting with the driveway. You said you were curious about doing it in real life, didn't you? "
"I did... didn't I?"
She was trying to sound disinterested, but you could tell from the way her voice cracked a bit in her response and the way she was side-eying the washer itself that her curiosity was certainly peaked.
You hook up the washer to the garden hose and turned on the water, and handed her the spray gun; fortunately for her it closely resembled the one she had grown accustomed to playing with her game, though it maybe looked a touch bigger in comparison with the way she was holding it.
"Okay, so I just need point the nozzle and press the button-GWAK!!"
A short burst of water came out from the spray gun onto the driveway, Kronii recoiling a bit from the sudden action.
"You okay?"
"Y-Yeah, I'm fine. I guess it would make sense that the virtual one doesn't have any sort of recoil compared to the real one."
You offer to take it off her hands, but she shakes her head and grips the spray gun tighter.
"I think I got it now, that just caught me by surprise is all."
With a new focus and bracing her shoulders and bit, she once again points and sprays a straight line across the driveway, leaving a noticeable contrast between her nice clean line and how much dirt had built up on the rest of it.
"Oh wow the dirty water flows down the driveway, the game doesn't have that! Rinse and clean until it is done!"
You only slightly regretted this decision because the spray gun became glued to her hands for the next few hours at her insistence, but god were you fortunate to have like a loveable dork in your life all the same.
