Chess

[ristin]

I just got my butt handed to me in a game of chess.
It was pretty even in terms of pieces lost until near the end...when i got distracted, and then let my last bishop get trapped and killed, only taking a pawn to hell (where all clergy go) with it...
Not long after that i procrastinated, delayed a little too long, and realised i could no longer catch a pawn on it's way to queen-hood. A quick little bit of slaughter later, and my king was being hunted down by a rook, queen and king.
*splat*

All hail the victorious parakleta!

I think I feel like your king did...

You're the first one I've heard describe chess like a roleplaying game! I think we'll be pretty evenly matched when we play chess. We can play a few games on my computer and if we decide we like it we can always invest in a physical chess board. One of those cute ones with Australian animals for the pieces...

(Alright, kidding about the type of chess board.)

Why kidding? ^_^

I thought this was some Euphemism for sex...

You're saying it's healthy for you to fixate on the sexlives of a couple you know?

Ristin! Stop teasing the Sith Lord! You know perfectly well the poor thing is desperate to get under your tail and he's consumed by jealousy that I own it now. Now his only hope is to persuade us to come over and play with his, ah, chess board.

Interesting enough, I have a chess variant called cross-chess...
