[Hi Paradisa, have the sound of a pen tapping against the journal]

[Tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap-]

[Finally the sound stops and there's a melodramatic defeatist groan]

Ugh! Fine I give up!

Hey Paradisa! How are you all?

Tell me, what's a good way to kill a lot of time without going crazy? And please, nothing about reading, training or playing in the snow.

Thank you! ♥

[Hey hey hey HE IS SO NOT CHEATING HE IS BEING CLEVER]

And...I think so! What now?

[wolfchild]

[ Arya pulls the screen off with a flourish. ]

We start! I go first! [ She wags her finger at him. ] You better not cheat!

[wilder]

Heeey, I'm not gonna cheat!

[wolfchild]

I'll be watching you!

[ She sticks her tongue out at him. ]

[wilder]

[He'll stick his tongue out right back at her!!]

Maybe I'll be watching you too!

[wolfchild]

I am good! Ha! I took your horse!

[wilder]

Huh?! Heeey! How'd you do that?!

[wolfchild]

Skill. You ought try some.

[wilder]

This is going to be a slaughter...!

[wolfchild]

Are you giving up already? We should have wagered. I'd have won.

[wilder]

Hey I never said I'd give up!

[wolfchild]

You might as well.

[wilder]

Jeez, so much faith in me.

And...ha! Took your horse!

[wolfchild]

[ D: ] Only because I felt bad for you! And whoever would be stuck listening to you complain you were butchered by a girl!

[wilder]

Huh? Why would I complain that it was by a girl?

[wolfchild]

Because all men do.

[wilder]

[he snorts]

Maybe in your world.

[wolfchild]

This one too. And loads others.

[wilder]

Well, not mine.

[wolfchild]

[ She tosses her discarded horse tile at him. ]

Do you want a prize?

[wilder]

[Catches it!]

I'll settle for the look on your face when I win.

[wolfchild]

[ She makes a face at him. ]

Not if I do! [ A doubtful look shadows her. ] Do you like it?

[wilder]

[he chuckles before reaching over to ruffle her short hair]

Yeah, I do!

1/2

[wolfchild]

[ She smiles, setting her chin on her crossed arms on the table. ]

Jon would do that all the time. He'd mess my hair and call me little sister.

[wolfchild]

[ As she considers her next move: ] You're quieter than I remember.
