Ami welcomed everyone, a bit nervously.

"Hi everyone. Sorry i was missing for two meetings. Thank you very much to the lovely Mr. Aziraphale who covered for me. I have handouts again, if anyone needs them."

She looked around.

"There are cookies and muffins in the back, as well as tea and soda. Now. Lets play."

Ami grinned. "I think i can find somewhere in my coma-addled brain the rules."

"Good cause I need you to let me know when I'm cheating."

Re: Play Chess

"If you are cheating, shouldn't you know?" Ami made sure the board was set and offered billy the white pieces.

Re: Play Chess

"Hence you telling me." he smirked. "I forget is there a coin toss to see who goes first?"

Re: Play Chess

[slr-mercury.livejournal.com]

"There is the guessing of the color. But you get white, so you go first."

Re: Play Chess

"Got it." He moved a pawn.

Re: Play Chess

[slr-mercury.livejournal.com]

Ami moved a pawn as well, shadowing his move.

Re: Play Chess

Billy decided to try clearing his mind like he had in meditating, to see if it helped.

He moved his pawn again.

Re: Play Chess

Ami moved her now free bishop to take his second pawn. And smiled sweetly.

Re: Play Chess

[l1ttle-billy.livejournal.com]

He would so kick her ass in tic tac toe. He smirked and moved a knight.

Re: Play Chess

[slr-mercury.livejournal.com]

Good thing knights could jump. "Oooh, bold move."

Re: Play Chess

[l1ttle-billy.livejournal.com]

"Sometimes you gotta take chances."

Re: Play Chess

[slr-mercury.livejournal.com]

"Indeed." Ami moved the bishop to threaten the queen. "Indeed"

Re: Play Chess

[l1ttle-billy.livejournal.com]

Billy made a handwavy move that got his queen out of danger.

Re: Play Chess

[slr-mercury.livejournal.com]

"Hm. Good." Ami took his pawn with her pawn to the right of it. "en passant".

sure hope i spelled that right...

Re: Play Chess

[l1ttle-billy.livejournal.com]

"No fair speaking French."

Re: Play Chess

[slr-mercury.livejournal.com]

"Sorry... It's just what that move is called."

Re: Play Chess

[l1ttle-billy.livejournal.com]

"Oh. Duh. Thanks."

Re: Play Chess

[slr-mercury.livejournal.com]

Ami grinned. "It is used if you went with the pawn over two squares, and are next to a pawn that you could have taken had you only gone one square."

Re: Play Chess

[l1ttle-billy.livejournal.com]

Billy looked over the board. "Ah, I see."

Re: Play Chess

[slr-mercury.livejournal.com]

"Sorry, just showing off. Have you learned castling yet?"

Re: Play Chess

[l1ttle-billy.livejournal.com]

"You go ahead and show off." he encouraged her. "No I can't say as I have."

Re: Play Chess

[slr-mercury.livejournal.com]

Ami moved her knight. "Alright, see how i have nothing between the king and the rook? And i have not moved either yet? Well i can next time it is my turn move them like this." she demonstrated and then put the two figures back "Thus protecting the king as needed."

Re: Play Chess

[l1ttle-billy.livejournal.com]

Billy watched carefully, nodding.

Re: Play Chess

[slr-mercury.livejournal.com]

"Your move."

Re: Play Chess

[l1ttle-billy.livejournal.com]

Billy's next move was, what he hoped, the opening of a gambit that would put her in check.

Re: Play Chess

[slr-mercury.livejournal.com]

Ami saw it but as she was going to do the castling next, she did that instead of parrying the gambit.
