What kind of games do people know how to play...? I know tag and hide-and-go-seek but I want to learn more! Does anyone want to play something sometime...?

[Growing up in the Phantom Zone, Chris never really got to play and during his short time with Clark and Lois, it was a little awkward trying to pretend to be normal while hanging out with the other kids when he went to school. Still, Chris liked having the freedom to have fun and he hadn't really ventured out into trying to make friends here yet, mostly sticking with Clark and Lois and exploring the place. But now he was getting used to being in Paradisa and he was ready to meet some new people, especially if there was anyone around his own age.]

Hide and seek?

[She doesn't know what that is but it sounds like fun.]

[childofkrypton]

Yeah! Haven't you ever played it...?

[fly_little_bird]

No... how do you play?

[childofkrypton]

Somebody is it and they have to count to 60 while everyone else goes and hides. Then when whoever is it gets down counting, they have to go find everyone. The first person to be found is it next time and the last person to be found wins!

[fly_little_bird]

[Hiding? Oooh she can do this]

It sounds like fun!

[childofkrypton]

Maybe if we find enough people, we can play it some time! And find a place to play it... It'd be really hard doing it anywhere in the castle. It'd take forever to find everyone else because it's so big.

[fly_little_bird]

[She laughs] Yeah, too many places to hide. Maybe outside somewhere?

[childofkrypton]

Outside could work!

[fly_little_bird]

Okay! I can't really play right now, but I really want to!

[childofkrypton]

That's okay! I'd have to ask my mom and dad first anyway.

What's your name? I'm Chris!

[fly_little_bird]

Your mom and dad are here?

Oh. I'm Rue. It's nice to meet you, Chris!

[childofkrypton]

Yeah! Kinda. They're my foster dad and mom.

[fly_little_bird]

"Foster"? What does that mean?

[childofkrypton]

My real mom and dad are bad people... so Mommy Lois and Daddy Clark took me in after I got away from them and were taking care of me instead. They're good guys.

[fly_little_bird]

Oh... I'm glad that you're with better people, now.

[childofkrypton]

Me too. I'm happy I get to be back with them again here.

[modernholmes]

Do you know how to play soccer?

[childofkrypton]

I know what soccer is but I've never played it before...

[modernholmes]

It isn't difficult to learn.

[childofkrypton]

Are there a lot of rules besides kicking the ball?

[modernholmes]

Some. But most of them come into play when you have a full match between teams.

[childofkrypton]

How many people do you need for a full match?
