Shuffleboard. Kurumi had seen her grandparents play it whenever they went into town to buy groceries. It was always a full day out, but a day where she usually had spent her time with her nose in a book and her brothers blowing bubbles with bubble gum or with their noses from boredom. The only sort of stick pushing she ever did wasn't pushing at all - it was whacking and there were a lot of rigid guidelines to it. This...resembled sweeping the floor really.
Okay, so maybe that wasn't being entirely fair to the sport, but you were using something that looked like a birstleless broom. Picking up the tang, Kurumi pushed the puck, erm, biscuit, erm...whatever it was, idly back and forth to try and get a feel for how it felt on the surface. Merlin, it was like the object had had a Gripping Charm placed on it, because it wasn't exactly gliding smoothly across the ground. Tempted to cast Glisseo to make it run smoother, but that probably wasn't allowed. Keeping her wand in her pocket, Kurumi approached the starting point, Kurumi pushed the pseudo broom back and forth again, flexing her muscles a bit and eyed the triangular scoring zone. Nice and easy now...Rocking her shoulders back, Kurumi twisted her arms and turned her hips a bit, Kurumi pushed tang towards the puck and made contact. It glided across the ground, spinning ever so slightly as it came to a stop...somewhere.
Kurumi stood on her tip toes to try and see where it had stopped and could only be sure of two things: it hadn't landed in the minus ten zone, nor had it ended it the plus ten. It didn't seem to have landed clearly in any of trapezoidal shaped, but rather on the line of two of them or...was it the corner. Kurumi hadn't put too much force into it, so her best guess was that it was in the seven area.
