The Art of Battle Games - Tuesday, Third Period [08/10].
As much as he despised the fact that he'd been wrangled into a bit of a fighting class this semester, Shunsui had to admit that the premise, at the very least, allowed for him to just sort of phone it in a little on his end and just set a few objectives and let his sometimes very eager determined students just...have at it and wear themselves out.
Which was generally his favored approach to all things battle-related, anyway.
And this was especially true of this week's game, which not only was something where they could just fight it off amongst themselves, but was also incredibly simple in concept.
"Konnichiwa, my little fighting ducklings ♥!" he greeted them happily, eager to get through the minimal instructions and then just sort of hang back and play professorial observer for the rest of the time. "Today's game might not sound familiar, but I'd be rather shocked if you weren't already familiar with some version of it in some capacity ♥. As far as my skillset goes, it is called Daruma-san ga Korona, or 'the Dharma Doll Fell Down,' which is based around a children's sort of stop-and-go game. Essentially, you will each take turns being chosen to be 'It'. The others must try to attack you and catch you be surprise, but there is a caveat. If the person who is It catches you in the act of movement, you are out. So you must be sneaky. You must be clever. You must be fast. Or, alternatively, you must be sharp-sighted and well-aware of your sneaky, clever, fleet-footed opponents....
"Any volunteers," he asked, now giving them a lazy, crooked smile, "to be It first ♥?"

Listen to the Instructions - AoBG, 08/10.
Daruma-san ga Korona - AoBG, 08/10.
Which I have no idea how to even RNG or determine any of that, so probably just make a thread for your student being IT and let everyone tag in how it goes from there, I guess? The game is simple, but mechanics are hard sometimes!

"Bring it," she said, with a glare around at her classmates in challenge, realizing now that, okay, keeping an eye on all of them at once might be trickier than originally assumed...
Talk to Shunsui - AoBG, 08/10.
OOC - AoBG, 08/10.
ALSO, hi, I just got surprise new canon with some seriously fucked up implications that I am sooooooooooo stoked to explore eventually!
