"Right?" While Eight enjoyed the strategy and technical planning of the game, she really enjoyed the fantasy of it all. She could imagine each of the pieces going on grand adventures and falling into battle. Like home, being beaten doesn't mean that one was gone, and at any moment the pieces could jump back on the field ready to fight.

"I can remind you what pieces do... and will let you know when you make a move you can't." It was her first time, after all. Eight decided a better strategy was to play it defensive, and only work on power plays when the game got past mid-point.
