Really, why would you pick on one of them like that? They can only move forward or diagonal, and the latter is conditional. Their lives must be rather difficult.
[flippantly, and he pushes one of his pawns forward]
Alas for the struggling pawn. [the corner of his mouth twitches, and he continues to play--logic, erratic, and back and forth again and again. Losing seemingly important pieces, keeping others that are often considered to have little use]
They were drafted, poor things. As I said, very little they can do. [he'll let Edward take a couple more important pieces, before finally taking one or two of his. Nothing dramatic, though. A pawn and a knight.]
I suppose if you wanted to get all technical about it. [yep, going to pull a couple erratic moves twice in a row now. Mostly because he's starting to get thin on pieces]
I was going to say profiteering of the upper class, but I suppose your answer works also.
One never knows. Sometimes the obvious needs to be pointed out. [he'll take another one of Edward's pieces--a bishop this time. Granted, he loses another piece for it, but he hardly seems bothered by it, as per usual]
As I've said, I do endeavor to be~ [he smirks across the chessboard, and continues playing, tossing out flirting comments here and there until he's basically backed into the corner. He's got about maybe two moves left before Edward has him in checkmate.]
Well. This certainly has been exciting, hasn't it?

Instead, he reaches across the board...and pushes his pawn into place all the way on Edward's side of the board]
Time for a switch, Edward~
