[fetteredwings]

[ fuck beach parties Nala is chilling with some board games and apparently one Yugamu]

Hmm...what board game should we play?

[Yugamu, who grew up in an insane environment;]

You choose! The only games I know are the ones my grandfather taught me, shogi and mahjong.

[fetteredwings]

Hehe. Those are like... chess, right? [ hmmmm what games are in this pile]

When I was at the Heartfelt Home, the Colonel tried to teach me chess and checkers but I fell asleep each time.

[vivisexual]

I dunno! A lot of culture was lost when humanity fled to the TRC from the ruined earth.

[Yugamu lore... Anyway.]

You should pick whatever you think looks exciting, Miss Nala! I'm easy to please and I learn fast.

[fetteredwings]

I...see. Then, let me check these out

[ help Nala can't even process that...

But she does pull out a game from the pile with glee . It's the Game of Life]

Ohh, I remember this.

[vivisexual]

[Yugamu peers at it. He's never seen this before in his life.]

With a name like that it's bound to be exciting! Do you want me to grab some snacks from the cart while you set up?

[fetteredwings]

Ohh, that would be nice. Did Y'shtola leave them here?

[Setting up the game and all the pieces...what colour does Yugamu want to be? She'll give him a blue]

[vivisexual]

[Yeah he would have picked blue... His color. Nala should see his room back home.]

I think so! I never actually asked her about them. Is there any flavor that's your favorite?

[fetteredwings]

Hmmm, I'm a fan of strawberries.

[Setting up all the cards and the dice. Okay, done!]

[vivisexual]

[Perfect. He grabs some strawberry tarts and also some lemon squares and some other assorted pastries.]

Alright, so how does this game work? And what stakes are we playing for?

[fetteredwings]

This is the game of life. We roll our dice and choose what paths we take throughout life, based on the cards we pick up and the spaces we land on. Uh---the person who wins is the one with the most money by the end.

[Reading the instructions. It's been thirty years...]

If you have some stakes you would like to consider, you may offer them up.

[vivisexual]

[Hmmm... He considers the setup. There's not a simple adaptation of strip poker rules, so;]

Maybe we each pick a number and when the other person rolls that number, they have to do a dare? Or maybe when you lose money. They really said that the only way to win at Life is to be rich, huh...

[fetteredwings]

Oh, that sounds like fun. Hmmm. Since we can only go up to 12 with our die, lets do it when we land on a space where we lose money.

[so many tax spaces... ]

[vivisexual]

Okay! Do you want to start so I can follow your lead? These cars are our pieces, right?

[fetteredwings]

Yes. And those parts...are where we can put children in if we decide to have them.

[It quite literally is, the game of Life. Nala rolls the dice and moves forward. One two]

Ooh, I can change my job and earn more money.

[Time to become a flight attendant]
