IC DATING SIM MEME

Anyway, I'm new here.

I didn't imply that bloodshed wouldn't be a necessity. Sacrifices MUST be made. The loss of a few outweighs the salvation of the many. In the loss, people will see just how hideous battle truly is and abandon it. With no possible victory, the game becomes undesirable and tedious. It ceases to be played.

You recognize it then? It's what I failed to put into action. Beautiful, isn't it?

→→In a way.
→→No.
→→What exactly are you getting at?
→→You and I may have something in common.

[As always, she's alert to those tiny possibilities of common ground and understanding.]

Even though I'm like this, I would also prefer a true end to the battles.

[How many times has she seen alternates of her defeated enemies, and known it all really is endless and infinite?]

But that's just a dream. You even just said it's something that failed in action. Chess is a good building block, but humans are different and don't always act according to expectation.

I was naïve.

While the ideal may not be reached, something close to it is attainable. Let's say one has to parry in a fencing match with the choice of attaining a flesh wound to the shoulder or being impaled. Anyone would know what would be preferable. Injury would be unavoidable but the degree would differ. Either way, the lesson would be learned. If you don't wish to be hurt, don't engage the enemy.

It's still your move.

→→Getting impatient?
→→Those are pretty words but have you even fought?
→→Why do you desire this?
→→Make the move.

[Ami takes another moment of deliberation before making her move. A decisive victory when Dorothy is aiming for stalemate would still be impressive.]

My enemies learn that lesson at the end of my sword.

[In dreams, she doesn't think to be as cautious about her identity; it was never as closely guarded in her world as some to begin with. Zoisite had known to target Venus as Aino Minako, and Kunzite had found Mizuno Ami when he wanted a senshi for his own.]

That so?

So did mine.

Though he now fancies himself a friend. Still as misguided as ever. That heart of his will get him killed.

[Dorothy visibly frowns at the new layout. Her stalemate is slipping away and she won't be forced into a win or lose situation. Life simply isn't that black and white. Time to strike hard. In two moves, she can capture the queen if all goes well. She makes what appears to be an assuming move and sits back.]

→→Prevent the queen's capture
→→See where this is going
→→Decide to force a win on her side
→→Player's choice

Congratulations on your victory! However, I'm not interested in friendship with a defeated opponent.

[Perhaps they have even more in common, as Dorothy called it misguided as well.

Ami's never counted the queen as highly as most chess players do; she's had Beryl and - if she needed more - certainly Princess Serenity for examples of how useless that great power can be. No, as she said, she loves her knights. However, she still doesn't want to give up such a strong support, and after carefully checking for traps, she takes her queen out of the danger.]

[She simply looks bored.]

That heart may lead him to demise but it's also what makes him the only one capable of defeating me.

[Of course, she'd never tell him that.]

Unlike me, he compromised. He lost to show me how hideous victory can actually be. So, in effect, by losing he won.

[So she's dodged her attempt to take the queen? Well, it at least left an opening. Just not one she wanted.]

Check.

[She frowned, obviously displeased.]

→→Move out of check
→→Shouldn't you be glad?
→→Who is this person you speak of?
→→Player's choice

So-called hearts are what destroyed everything once. I don't rely on them.

[Ami is lying, of course. No, rather, she means what she says - but she's still making all those choices emotionally even at the same time she says she distrusts emotion.

She is certainly telling the truth about the destruction. The feelings of anger and hatred, carried by the princess when the prince died, were what transmitted themselves to the ginzuishou and carried out the princess' wish for everything to be destroyed.

She moves out of check; it's not as if she'll willingly just lose.]

Don't rely on them or simply don't possess one? I'm asking in earnest as someone with similar thoughts on the matter. He used his to nearly destroy me. Causing tears to fall is more of a blow than drawing blood.

[And now the darting begins. She's going to chase that king throughout the board until her own king is similarly compromised in retaliation.]

Check.

→→Move out of check again
→→Attack her king and grant the stalemate
→→Protect your king by sacrificing a piece
→→Pause to think

Don't rely on them.

[She hasn't cried in... how long now? No matter what blows come. She's learning that trick of abiding them and moving on, forcing it down as ruthlessly as ever a lonely girl waiting for her so-called friends once did.]

[She moves out of check, but this will quickly get boring and she looks for a way to break it definitively.]

So you do have one? Therein lies your problem. It's not something that can be so easily suppressed.

[Because, damn it, she tried so very hard to do that after her father died.]

Like it or not, the day will come when it will force itself upon you with a vengeance. It's an inevitability and avoiding is like trying to set ice aflame without melting it.

Futile.

Check.

[And she's going to be persistent. She will get her stalemate.]

→→Move out of check again
→→Attack her king and grant the stalemate
→→There are ALWAYS exceptions
→→Player's choice.

[She's equally stubborn. She will get her victory. Ami moves again, serious and focused.]

Everyone has one. Maybe even someone like me.

(ooc: and all you need to know about Kunzury (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LiEBQ4EPQE0) in 3.5 minutes XD)

That so? Then I hope you don't suffer too much when it finally forces you to rely on it.

Check.

→→Move out of check again
→→Attack her king and grant the stalemate
→→Suffer?
→→Player's choice.

[ooc: *watches* And here, have 30 seconds of frustrated Q/D manipulation. Gawd, I hated tracing Quatre's hair for this.]

[She's a stubborn girl, and the dance goes on for quite some time. But eventually, either frustration or some vestige of simple good sportsmanship compels her to admit the outcome is certain.]

Stalemate.

Relying on it before was my mistake. I won't repeat it.

[This is a girl who even has a contingency plan to completely break and destroy her own lover.]

(ooc: I loved it <3)

And now mutual congratulations and condolences are in order.

You play very well. However, to win against me, you need to rely on what you fear will fail you again.

[OOC: Your pairing is officially stabbier than mine. xD]

→→Offer to help put the pieces away
→→Schedule a rematch in the future
→→Walk away
→→Player's choice

Thank you. I enjoyed the match. Shall we play again sometime?

[She'll just be completely ignoring the comments about heart.]

(ooc: and yet, Neph/Ami (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AuS7fin-pWY) is still stabby a bit, too. Oh, Dark Kingdom. Why?)

Edited 2011-03-19 09:20 (UTC)

I'd like that.

Another time then.

[ooc: Future ic chess dream, ftw? xD And, idek, stabbing seems like a ~metaphor. ~~Penetration and whatnot. ._.~~]

→→game over - neutral end ;)

Another time, then.

[And with that, Ami helps to put away the pieces before saying a polite farewell and turning to leave.]

(ooc: future chess dream y/y/y/y/y/y/y/y. And I have this amazing mental image of them having a sly, sneaky, twisted sleepover XD which would be so ironic, considering, y'know.)

Yeah, Dorothy likes skewering people (particularly Gundam pilots) so...w00t, tag team. xD

Fell misses skewering senshi. D: But she's up for training matches sometime! XD

As long as she's better than Quatre. Heero let her win until she frustrated him enough. ;D

In canon she knocks the others to the ground unable to get up right away in one hit. That work? XD

Yeah, that'll do. ;D She has a gun anyway. Lousy cheat. :p

So's Fell. She used the sword to channel her dark energy to do it. XD

Guess that's y all those GW/SM x-overs pair Mercury/Quatre. Good side's like him and dark's like D

Seems like! I am loving interaction with them both. <3

Power couple, ftw ;D We know it's a weird pairing but, hey, it's not yaoi. xD

hey, I ship Kunzite/Darkury like burning. short version: power couple and highly abusive :|

She's the abusive one in this dynamic with the stabbing and so on. xD But meh, we MUST make it work.

Kunz is... horrible. But he's also the one noticing her when she felt abandoned. hello Stockholm.

Eep... Not healthy but hey, sexy is sexy and evil is sexy. Q is just...too friendly. x_X

But Q is <3! and yeah, I love exploring how messed up Kunzury is, so it works for me XD

Yeah, he is. xD Meh, he'll break her eventually. Messed-up pairings are fun. <3

Ami's shippable with Nephrite, too, but it's sweeter and 'love redeems'/mutual lonely understanding.

The only other ship for D is Relena and yeah...no. xD Sweet can be good. :3

XD I've played both I mentioned, at different places/times.
