[ dextera is a little more indignant at the suggestion that it was a tantrum, but it’s probably true—even if he wouldn’t admit it, he takes a lot of pride in his chess skills, and guren brings it out of him.
he’s focused on the board now, not on the silent seconds ticking by, and he makes a few moves that seem regardless of where guren’s pieces are on the board.
he has a plan in mind, and he’s going to execute it.
eventually, though, that stern look on his face eases, and he thinks it’s probably an inevitability that he’s going to win. still, it doesn’t change the fun of playing. guren doesn’t play like someone who has studied chess, and that’s interesting. ]
