STAY PUT DANGIT

You look like you are having fun.

[ It's while Cloud is still playing skeeball that Adela wheels up, smiling and nodding to him in greeting as she starts to watch what he's doing. Good Nehra that is a big pile of stuffed toys though, just how many games has he won? ]

CAN'T STOP WON'T STOP

[Her voice is familiar, and it's the only thing that keeps him from glancing back over his shoulder, attention remaining fully on the game. How long has he even been standing there, shoving endless money into the machine? He's completely lost track.

But he's found a rhythm and so it seems silly to stop now. Even if he's currently got enough toys to gift everyone he knows with two.]


I guess I am.

[Tossing another ball, if falls easily into the second highest ring, elevating his score even more, ensuring he'd be getting yet another prize.]

Want to give it a try?
enchantressofore: Thanks to Tarot for the B/W bases! (Just what do you want with me?)

I do not see why I should not.

[ She nods, trying to roll up to get a little closer... Only, because she's in a chair the angle is awkward so her roll doesn't end up going very high or scoring very well.

She frowns, her shoulders slumping a bit. ]


I cannot help but think it would be easier if I were standing.

[In truth, it would be far easier if she were standing in the proper position instead of sitting in an awkward one. But limitations shouldn't stop somehow from trying, or from having fun.

They would just have to find a way to make it work.]


You just have to get the angle right.

[Hunkering down, weight carefully balanced on the balls of his feet next to her, he took the next ball, carefully calculating for a moment before tossing, adding a little bit of extra force.

It doesn't go quite as high as his other's, landing somewhere in the middle, but it's an improvement.]


Trying throwing it a little harder. It's better to over shoot it then to not add enough force.
enchantressofore: Thanks to Tarot for the B/W bases! (Perhaps I will show some gratitude.)

[ She watches him, trying to see what he's doing differently before trying it herself.

Better, though not great, but better. She seems satisfied enough with it, smiling a little more. ]


It is still difficult. Is this a game you like a lot?

You just need some practice.

[Choosing another ball, he remained in his bent position, throwing it as he had before, adding a little more force. It went further this time, landing in the second smallest ring, the score changing to reflect the new addition.]

I kind of lost track of time.

[Which is his way of saying he was enjoying himself.]
enchantressofore: Thanks to Tarot for the B/W bases! (Maybe you are not so terrible.)

[personal profile] enchantressofore 2016-08-18 04:17 am (UTC)(link)
You are quite skilled at the least.

[ She chuckles, indicating his most recent score and taking to just watching him for the time being. Maybe she'll figure something out by seeing how he plays the game? ]

Were there things like this where you are from?
meteorrains: (Hidden Meanings Deep Inside)

[personal profile] meteorrains 2016-08-18 04:52 am (UTC)(link)
Thanks, but it's mostly good hand - eye coordination.

[Pushing himself upwards, he tosses the last ball, aiming it perfectly and landing it in the smallest ring, earning himself another high score in the process.]

At the Gold Saucer.
enchantressofore: (This has to be the best time I've had!)

[ Have some applause for that Cloud! Her poor throw couldn't have helped with that, but hey at least he did it! ]

Did they do things like this festival a lot there then? The games, rides, and such.
meteorrains: (Needs His Theme Music)

[personal profile] meteorrains 2016-08-21 11:06 pm (UTC)(link)
[Congrats, Adela, because this is absolute closest you'll ever going to get to seeing Cloud flustered. He definitely was not expecting the applause.]

It's an amusement park, so it's kind of like this all the time.
enchantressofore: Thanks to Tarot for the B/W bases! (I am not certain that I understand.)

I would not know -- I have never attended one such as this before.

Don't they have them in your world?
