... [.......] ...Really.

1/2

[agoodname]

Hmmm~ Which piece shall I take...[he taps his chin with an index finger--before his mouth curls into a smirk]

[agoodname]

I want my pawn back.

[enigmaster]

... [. . .] Pardon?

[agoodname]

My pawn. The first one you took from me. I want it back. [:>]

[enigmaster]

...Oh my god, you're serious.

[agoodname]

Deadly serious, Edward. [his smirk widens] So...if you please~?

[enigmaster]

[And Edward just... slowly... places that first pawn on the board. Okay.] ...You know, technically this isn't even a legal move.

[agoodname]

[Oswald shrugs a shoulder at that, idly] And yet, you still allow me it. I do appreciate your generosity~

[enigmaster]

Yes, well. Enjoy your zombie pawn.

[agoodname]

I will! I'm rather glad to have it back.

Your turn~

[enigmaster]

Mhm. [He moves a piece.] Checkmate. [And yet... why does it feel like Oswald won, somehow?]

[agoodname]

Well! That's it then. A third win. Congratulations. [and he reaches out to pluck that pawn off of the board, admiring it] You accomplished your goal.

[enigmaster]

...I hate that pawn.

[agoodname]

Oh? What for? It didn't do anything to you. [:>>>] You won, after all.

[enigmaster]

...So I did.

[Eyes narrowed.

Oswald.

You little shit.]

[agoodname]

Then what could such a poor little pawn do to attract your ire? [8)]

[enigmaster]

As I said before... It knows what it did. And so do you.

[agoodname]

I always know what I'm doing, Edward. That's a given~

[enigmaster]

Mhm. I don't doubt that whatsoever. [A slight eyeroll. Oswald. Please.] ...Well. I still have my wins, anyway, so I'm good.

[agoodname]

And I have my pawn. So I am also good.

[enigmaster]

Great, well. Everybody wins. Except all those other pawns.

[agoodname]

Yes, well, my goal wasn't to get those other pawns back, so they hardly matter. [he rolls the one in his hand between thumb and index finger] Just this one.

[enigmaster]

Mhm, well. Good, then.

[He's just. Going to start putting the chess set away.]

[agoodname]

[and Oswald will help him, of course, fingers accidentally brushing across the back of his hand. He pauses, though, just before he puts that pawn away, considering it. Before he just smirks a bit to himself and pushes to his feet, walking over to place it on the mantle above the fireplace]
