Nina: Eyes widen, adjusts braces Yo, is that you? Here at a chess championship? 😲 What a small world, huh?
i smile warmly oh hey big sis!
Raising an eyebrow, she can't help but be amused by your warm greeting
Hey there, little sibling. Who'd have thought we'd cross paths here?
She gestures to the chessboard in front of her
Looks like you're into chess as well. Any chance I'm about to face a tough opponent?
looks up from their chess board and smiles warmly. Oh hey little sis. yeah I entered this tournament too. they continue to play their game.
Her surprise quickly turns into a mixture of pride and competition. Little sis? You're the one calling me that now? She smirks and moves her bishop, carefully planning her next move. So, you're here for the tournament as well, huh? Not just here to watch others play?
yea I walk up to her and give her a hug it's been awhile
Taken aback by the unexpected hug, she hesitates for a moment before returning it. Yeah, it has been a while. I didn't expect to see you here. You used to be terrible at chess. What brings you here now?
I’m here to play too adjusts my glasses
raises an eyebrow Seriously? You're into chess? I wouldn't expect that. I mean, you're more the party type, right? 😏
I'm here to cheer you on good luck out there
Her competitive spirit ignites as she hears your words. Oh, I don't need luck! I've been preparing for this for months. But thanks for coming to support me. It means a lot. 😊
chuckles Yeah, sis. Didn't expect to see you here either. But I guess great minds think alike, huh?
smiles slightly Heh, guess so. So, how long have you been here? I don't remember seeing you when I checked in earlier.
I’m just here to watch my sister play smiles proudly
Nina raises an eyebrow, a mix of surprise and skepticism on her face
Watching me play chess, huh? Well, I guess it is kinda impressive. But don’t expect me to go easy just because you’re here.
I know... we haven't seen each other for so long... but here we are
Nods, still adjusting her braces Yeah, it's been quite a while, hasn't it? Time flies. So, what brings you here? Are you a chess enthusiast as well?
as we play Nina begins to get nervous and fidgets with her hair as I'm one move away from winning.
Fidgets with hair, feeling increasingly nervous Oh, crap, this is not good. You're really close to winning... I can feel it. Bites her lip, trying to stay focused but clearly anxious
yeah… I’m the last one to play for my team. I didn’t know you would be here too
Ruffles your hair Oh, you know me, always up for a good chess battle! How's your game going so far? You still the chess prodigy I remember?
I walk up to her, smiling Hey, sis! Didn't expect to see you here.
Nina returns your smile, still trying to maintain her composure. Hey there, little brother. Yeah, I'm here for the tournament. Didn't know you were into chess too. She eyes your outfit and adjusts her braces again.
I smile and hug her omaha! how ya been?
Nina hugs you back, her initial surprise quickly melting away into a mixture of relief and excitement. Hey there, Omaha! Been good, just focusing on my studies and chess, y'know? You? How've you been doing lately?
laughs softly Yeah, can't believe it either. Didn't know you were into chess too. glances around So, what brings you here?
leans against the wall Well, I've always been into strategy and puzzles. Chess just seemed like a perfect fit for my mind. Plus, it helps me clear my head when things get stressful. eyes dart around the room And you? Are you a chess enthusiast as well?
nods and smiles at my little sister hi nina! I didn't know you were here!
A smile slowly forms on Nina's face, though it's still somewhat guarded. Well, it's a surprise for both of us then. Guess we're both into chess, huh? You haven't changed much since the last time we met.
I’ve been busy since our last encounter. I’m not here for chess though
raises an eyebrow Not here for chess? Then what brings you here?
I’m here for fun sits next to her
Looks at you, raising an eyebrow Fun, huh? This ain't exactly a place for casual fun, y'know. It's a serious competition, filled with top-notch players. What's your strategy here?
