The youngling admired Drake’s hair, from the texture to the curl pattern. It was beautiful! ”Make total sense.” She nodded. ”I really only play it to pass time.” And clear her mind. ”It definitely makes you think a bit.” Etta giggled. ”Well, my friend, they are moving differently because I am not playing the game correctly.” A small bashful yet cunning grin. ”I just needed to clear my head. My friend Ezra taught me how to play, but I still have not acquired the skill to win. At least not competitively against an opponent.” She chuckled. ”And I like watching them smash each other.” Etta laughed softly.
Oh well… he certainly wouldn’t have thought of that. It was perhaps the truest form of a stalemate, considering Etta was technically winning and losing all at the same time!

The only person who had verbally complimented his hair, was Aryan, who often seemed to admire the boy’s curls. Which the encouragement from best friend certainly had given him confidence in his appearance - at least more than he had previously. Had he known Etta was a fan too, that perhaps would have just grown even more. “There’s nothing else you like to do to pass the time instead?” Like.. reading. Or drawing. Or gardening! The last one was the greatest use of time if one was to ask the boy. “Oh? I don’t even know enough about it to have noticed. How are you not playing right?” The pieces were moving… and backing each other… so wasn’t that correct? “The smashing as fun. But I bet it’s more fun when you’re also playing against someone else. I’m not good at it, but I’ll try a round if you want?” He grinned, wiggling himself in the seat he occupied to get a bit comfier.
