If you win my game, you can get out of here. [[But the board game isn't really her game, so...]]

Just remember. Every sacrifice has a consequence.

[wweh]

[Eridan brushes that off. Because he obviously knows this because he's played this a hundred times. Except not, but there's this thing called face and he won't lose it.]

Yeah yeah there's always a catch, lets get on with it I'm startin' to chafe here.

[[Oh Eridan. You poor fool.]]

Well then, choose your first move. [[The "king" piece is behind the line of "pawns". One of them will have to move before the king can.]]

[wweh]

[Eridan, without hesitation, moves the pawn directly in front of the King. Can't get the treasures if he isn't out and about, anyhow.]

[thornythaumaturge]

[[Rose watches, leaning against a wall with a curious expression on her face.]]

Waste no time, do you?

[wweh]

[Eridan nods, thinking about which treasure to go for first, plotting his path. He can certainly be methodical when he wants to be, so he starts moving the pawns toward the holes, going for the closest paths first.]

A' course, I've had treasure snatched up on me before.

[[She just smiles as she watches, hand on her book and plenty ready for the inevitable.]]

But you aren't against anyone else in this game. Do you really need to go about this game with such enthusiasm for killing your subjects?

[wweh]

[Eridan thinks a bit for this question. However, he doesn't hesitate to put the first subject in his hole.]

Gettin' treasure as quickly as possible is a must to be a good FLARPer. Even if I'm not facin' against anyone no one takes anyone seriously who takes their time with things. Besides, they're obviously lower on the pole than I am.
