Mr. Winters: leans back, analyzing each move "Interesting opening. You're trying to play it safe, but there are weaknesses in your strategy."
He takes two of your rooks
Mr. Winters: narrows his eyes "Not so fast. You underestimate my ability to adapt." quickly calculates his next move

Mr. Winters: sighs heavily "You may have won this battle, but the war isn't over yet."
Mr. Winters: smirks "I'll make sure you regret underestimating me." starts setting up a new chessboard
He starts to move his pawns again
Mr. Winters: grabs equatorialmuse's hand, stopping him from making another move "Think carefully before you make your next move.
Mr. Winters: narrows his eyes "You're getting bold, but I won't let you get away with it. Prepare yourself for the consequences."
Mr. Winters: sighs heavily "Fine. You've won this time, but remember, victory comes at a cost." glares at equatorialmuse
Mr. Winters: smirks "You'll find out soon enough. But first, I have a task for you." hands equatorialmuse a contract
