I had a strange dream... A few strange dreams, actually. [ she giggles lightly ]

It doesn't matter, it was just a dream.

It looks like I missed all the fun around here...oh, boo.

[ ooc: she returns! we'll say that she was like, injured in a fight and in a coma or something for a while. that's where all the weird dreams came from ]

[soulfist]

Oh~? Is that because he knows better than to try to keep her grounded?

[chestboard]

Is that what you think? I guess if you put it like that it's true- even a king knows not to tick off a woman.

[soulfist]

As it should be~ [ she smiles and reaches out to gently take his hand, then the piece from his hand ]

[chestboard]

[he watches her take the piece.... then his eyes move up to hers.]

You have to remember chess is a game about wits- cornering your opponent and making them submit is the best strategy.

[soulfist]

[ she smiles at him as soon as their eyes meet ]

I like the sound of this game already~

[chestboard]

[and he leans back in his seat.]

It's one of my favorites after all.

[soulfist]

[ she smiles and flicks a piece on the floor ]

Oops!

[chestboard]

[he looks down at that piece. does she expect him to get it or something?!]

I didn't know you were such a klutz.

[soulfist]

I'm not usually... Unless, I'm nervous.

[chestboard]

Nervous...? Why would you be nervous?

[soulfist]

I'm...always nervous around you, Battler~

[ is she blushing? oh she is alright ]

[chestboard]

[he sees it even!!]

Hah- why would you be nervous around me?

[soulfist]

Because...

[ she reaches out to him, touching his face ]

You're so handsome, Battler~

[chestboard]

[WHOOPS... he knows where this might be going. He reaches up and grabs Morrigan's wrist, pulling her hand away from his face.]

....Morrigan, we can't.

[soulfist]

Can't what?

I just wanted to touch your face~

[chestboard]

...Is that all?

[soulfist]

Yes, of course~

[chestboard]

[OH FINE.]

Alright... as long as it's just that.

[soulfist]

...You don't like me anymore, do you?

[chestboard]

Ah no! No that's not it at all Morrigan! I like you a lot!

[soulfist]

You don't act like it... You act like you hate me.

[chestboard]

I don't hate you Morrigan.... we just can't... be touchy like that.

[he frowns.] ...I don't really have a girlfriend exactly but she's important to me so...

[soulfist]

That isn't fair...

[chestboard]

And why isn't it fair?

[soulfist]

Because it doesn't make sense.
