Games Training (Mandatory Event)

[Kakita Kenji]

Kenji had a good time playing Go. Convincing the Sensei to go play Go was easy. He played a few nice rounds before the lesson was over. Soon it was time for the Great End Ceremony.

[Matsu Qiang]

Matsu Qiang had no previous experience with the game of shogi, but after the instructors explained it, he learned the game swiftly, having perceived how the pieces and their movements were analogous to battlefield maneuvers. It turned out to be surprisingly fun to move the little wooden markers around the board, and Qiang resolved to remember the rules so he could play the game again in the future.

[Kaiu Aiichiro]

Playing? That was easy for him. He knew that he could never be the student master of Go anymore, so he strived for Shoji master.

[Bayushi Kaidan]

Bayushi Kaidan sat down and started to analyze what to write in this game of letters. He should have thought about learning calligraphy at some point but right now he had to write this letter.

[Kokyou]

Kokyou manages to convince the sensei he's better a kemari, since he's good at kicking around. To show how good he really is, the Mantis boy takes the item from the sensei's hand and roundhouses it over the dojo walls, nearly into the moon.

Game over.

[Iuchi Prashant]

Prash bows to the Ikoma when his turn comes, smiling warmly. "Ikoma-sensei, I'd like to take this chance to thank you for your lesson on Kemari a few days ago! I had never properly considered what one could learn from games, and with your help... I believe I have learned a great lesson."

He then bows again, lower. "After your lesson, I have had the opportunity to participate in the lovely Go tournament organised by the Crane students", he says, happily, "and I took great liking to the game". He does not mention he won the tournament in question - it wasn't the point after all, was it?

"So... I would like to ask your permission to participate with the monks in the Go training today, Ikoma-sensei", he asks, bowing low again.

It might be because the Ikoma actually had heard of his victory, or maybe he just found the boy's newfound interest in games funny, but the Lion actually grinned before nodding and answering 'Hai, Iuchi-san, you're allowed to do it'

The Ikoma's smile widens a bit as the Iuchi starts playing. He seemed to have a natural talent to plan out a particular strategy and find a way to outsmart his opponent, and the little training he had in the tournament seemed to have started to hone that into a fine player indeed.

The boy is also quite able to keep focused on his strategy and avoid feints or distractions made by the opponent during the game. Near the end, he almost fell for a Ko feint that might have made him lose a good deal of the advantage he had built up during the game, but he notices it at the last minute, and manages to finish with a very good standing.

When the training is done, he bows low to the Lion sensei and thanks him again, smiling warmly, and is greeted with a nod, a smile back, and a finely crafted Go set.

The Iuchi thanks him, still bowing and smiling, and says some last words before leaving. "Ikoma-sensei, I'd like to have a word with you later if you can. Thank you very much again"

[Soshi Shiso]

Shiso criticised someone's cousin's choice of room decor for not enough pink. It was deep. It was full of subtext. It was super effective.
