Sorry for the delay, I had tutoring and mock trial today...
It looks to be around early-morning when you awaken, or at least, that's what the walls of your room, currently displaying a tranquil nature scene, show. The words, "Good Morning, Xanthus!" drift across the ceiling.
The contact lenses in your eyes sync the virtual reality over the present. A code from a player you hacked yesterday appears on your screen.
(oof,well I hope that went well)
He yawned and sat up,"another day another drama" he muttered getting himself to wake up the rest of the way.He glanced at the code and squinted at it,he couldn't remember off the top of his head what this one was for.Gosh damn it,this forest is too noisy.he waved his hand to shut off the tranquil wood scene

The words ORDER PENDING flash once and disappear. The stuff you ordered should arrive in a few minutes, the cost automatically subtracting from your Credits.
The virtual newspaper on the table glows brightly blue once again, calling your attention to it.
What do you do?

(Lala, do you mind if I casually yeet in for a bit because I'm so bored rn and you're not online? You can take over for me as well if you want if I'm not on)
It disappears and is replaced with the boring white screen-walls of your bedroom, blank except for the code. Before you can read it and remember what it was for, a glowing blue newspaper appears in the air in front of you. It's not physically tangible but tapping it should let you read the day's news.

He sighed,"Let's see what S*** the worlds got going on today" he mumbled tapping on the paper bored.It was probably something about the research of the disease which was a bunch of BS.It's not like he HAD to read the paper,it just helped.It wasn't even paper anymore for Christ's sake.

Cody shrugged, deciding to let Chisei wander around out of his cage for a bit while he read the news. Who knows? Maybe politicians were being stupid again and he could get a laugh out of it.

It (he?) squawks, "Hello," and starts flapping around, probably looking for food. Hopefully it doesn't accidentally fly into a wall.
The 'front page' declares, 36 CONFIRMED flops FATALITIES TO NEWLY DISCOVERED DISEASE. Not this again. It had started around a month ago. A disease, never seen before, had popped up. At first, it had been nothing to worry about, surely there was a cure, but against all odds, it had resisted all treatments and claimed its first victims.
You swipe to the next page, but all you see are articles about politicians being stupid.

You skim the article, which is, as expected, more stuff about how the disease is spreading and scientists are working on a cure from the (ugh) dead bodies of the victims. Nothing new. Once you're done, it appears to roll up and disappear in a flash of blue light.

(Yeah, the bird's a he.)
"Well, doggone it." Cody mumbled, feeling a bit of a knot in his stomach. "Is this how people a thousand years ago felt about cancer?" He shook his head briefly and turned his attention back to Chisei. "I know. Any moment now buddy."

As you turn away, the paper disappears in a flash of blue. Just as you say that, you hear a faint ping alerting you to the fact that your delivery is here. Chisei squawks again and flaps his wings at the front door, confirming it.

"Comin'!" Cody called across the room before making his way to the door. He quickly stooped down, beckoning the parrot onto his hand with a half-mumbled "Step up," before answering.
