-Armane took his shot, hitting one of the balls and not even getting it close. Eriess stepped up and aimed the cue carefully to the Cue ball. She hit it and bounced the cue ball off the fourteen ball, the striped taking the momentum and hitting the two ball in to a pocket. She intentionally missed her last shot. Crowbar aimed and used the misplaced fourteen ball to get an instant hole, then missed his next shot. Die did a corner shot with the cue to knock the nine ball into a middle pocket. Snowman used the cue ball to hit the eight ball to sink the one ball. Carolus seemed to be enjoying watching but he really didn’t like the lack of awareness. But their response to a new presence had set him at ease. He blinked as he said, “Why are you holding back?” Eriess turned to him and said, “Sir, we are letting her have fun.” Carolus smiled and said, “How about after, she gets to see how you and Crowbar play alone? Don’t call me sir in downtime.” Eriess nodded and said, “Alright, Carolus. What do you say to that, Casi?”-
-
Casi beamed,”I would love to!” She when once more she got two more balls, but none after her next hit. She retreated from the table to make room for Armane, she waited for every one to go again and looked around the room absently.
-
-Armane went up to hit and he decided since he couldn’t aim properly, he’d just smack the cue ball randomly. He walked away from the table and the cue ball bounced over the eleven ball and hitting the eight ball into the corner pocket. Eriess looked at Crowbar and him back at her. Snowman tilted her head and said, “I don’t know how to call that… All the solids were in… he never hit a ball…” Die said, “Let’s suppose he won. Colors to stripes rules don’t have anything on not hitting one so… we can assume since he was aiming at solids, kinda…” Carolus was chuckling at the confusion. Armane smiled and sat to the side then. “So us now?” Eriess asked. Crowbar smirked and taunted, “You’re on, toots.” Die gathered the balls and reset the rack. He removed the triangle and moved away. “Casi,” Carolus said, “you pick which of them goes first.” Armane put his cue away since he sat near a rack, Die placed away his, and Snowman put away hers.-
-
Casi gave them a surprised look,”Well, as the saying goes Ladies go first!” She ambled over to Armane and sat down by him, tucking her feet comfortable under herself with a small smile. The girl patted his hand in congratulations and leaned on him slightly to watch the game.
-
-Armane smiled and leaned next to Casi. Snowman and Die sat next to them. Snowman said, “This is going to get intense. It’s almost like when they are pitted against each other they are Kesmisis instead of Matesprit.” Die was silent and already on the edge of his seat. Carolus was smirking. Eriess set the cue ball and aimed her cue, doing her classic break to get the seven ball in. She waited for the balls to stop then hopped the cue over the eight ball, which stayed firmly in place, to knock the nine ball off the corner of the middle pocket and hit the one ball into the corner. All balls were still at the sink so she fired the cue ball over the eight ball again and into the two ball. It just hit the back of the hole but hopped back out. She stood out of the way as Crowbar took to the cue ball. He hopped the cue ball over the three ball, it passed the eight ball and hit the fifteen ball at a perfect angle to hit it into the corner but the cue continued by hitting the six to the edge and the cue heading back to the twelve to sink it into the other corner. He waited for balls to settle then shot the cue at the six at the other side, it bringing the six out but giving the cue more speed as it recoiled to a different direction and hit the fourteen ball towards the corner pocket. It didn’t quite go in but the speed of the cue ball plus its rotation caused it to come back and tap the fourteen in. He then shot the cue ball from out of the corner and tapped the eleven ball barely causing it to roll towards the other corner but not enough to go in. The cue didn’t his anymore balls.-
-
Casi watched the game excitedly, enjoying the intense atmosphered. The girl adjusted her shades, as they where slipping down her nose, though she was slightly lost. The clicking of the balls, and the fast moves made up for the lost knowledge.
-
-Armane placed his hand on his lap just out of excitement. Die was nearly falling off his seat. Snowman stood up and yelled, “KICK HIS ASS!” Carolus was refraining from laughing so instead was smiling at their intensity. Crowbar flicked the edge of his hat as Eriess cued up. She hit it from its position over the eight and into the two, knocking it in and the cue had enough backspin that when it hit its target, the three ball, it gathered a reverse spin. It hit the edge and traveled behind the eleven ball to get into the pocket. The cue ball continued and in its new tradjectory bounced off two walls and and hit the two ball to make it travel up the edge and gently tap into the other corner pocket. The balls settled and she hit again, hopping the cue ball over the five into the six ball and knocking it into a side pocket, the cue ball went backwards and tapped the five to the other side pocket. She waited for balls to settle and she hit the cue ball again. It hopped the eight ball and went around the outside hitting back in and just missed a direct hit on the four ball and causing her to miss the hole. Crowbar took his turn and hopped the eight ball and the cue ball struck the thirteen ball, sinking it in but it missed other balls. He took his shot of bouncing the cue ball off the edge to smack the eleven ball into a side pocket as the cue whirred to the ten ball and hacked that into the other side. The cue stopped and he took the next shot at the nine ball, it just barely bouncing off the edge and slowly rolling back away from the hole.-
-
Casi clapped and almost fell from where she was sitting as Armane has a fit of excitement. The girl was greatly enjoying this exciting game and pushed up her shades once more.
-
-Armane yelled, “Eriess! Make the felt look like chumps!” Die smirked and yelled the friendly remark, “Crowbar! Take her to the cleaners!” Snowman was all a twitter about it. Carolus was just enjoying the intense energy. Eriess gave Crowbar a gentle rub under the chin as she went to take her shot. He smiled at her. Eriess hit the cueball and sunk in the last solid and was staring at the last stripe and the eight ball. She smirked as she hopped the eight ball, that amazingly was not moved from the center the entire game, She hit the striped in and it the cue smacked the eight ball. It rolled over and slowed near the hole. It inched right up to the edge and gently fell in. The cue ball was the only ball left. Crowbar smirked and said, “Why not have just taken me out in the first turn?” “That’s no fun,” Eriess smirked and kissed him gently. Carolus stood up and clapped for them. Snowman did too, Die also did so. Armane remained seated while clapping.-
-
Casi stood and clapped, laughing, she pulled Armane to stand and clap to. “That was amazing!” The girl’s smile was blinding the skin around her sunglasses crinkling.
-
-Armane stood and clapped. Carolus smirked and said, “Eriess, Show your skill.” Eriess nodded with a cleaver smirk. She set the balls herself and cued up. Crowbar went and stood beside Casi and whispered down to her, “She should’ve beat me like this.” Eriess placed the triangle to the side and aimed her ball. She hit it with enough force that knocked all the balls to the sides and bouncing around, the seven, one, five, and two balls went in first, the cue ball rounded off and knocked the three and four into pockets. She watched as the ball then took out the six, fifteen, and thirteen. With a slow roll, nine and ten escorted themselves into the side pockets. The cue gently tapped the fourteen, twelve, eleven, and ten balls into the corner pockets. The cue then slowly rolled and tapped the nine, causing it to roll off to the side and leave only the eight ball in the center, untouched and the cue ball lined up to slam it into the back corner pocket. Eriess smiled and said, “That’s what a few hundred sweeps of playing does.” Crowbar smiled and said, “You struck me in the heart when I first saw you play.” Eriess blushed and said, “But you know I love you for your riddles most.” Crowbar smiled, “Our Charms will forever match.” Carolus was chuckling and said, “Get a room.” Both Eriess and Crowbar blushed. Snowman laughed at it. Die brought his palm swiftly to his face. Armane smirked at it.-
-
The girl clpped o nce more, her grin in place. Casi laughed, her voice light as bells,”I think they’re cute together.” She looked up at Armane,”Are there more people in this so called dreary castle for me to meet?”
-
-Armane nodded and began leading out. The group stayed behind to keep playing. Armane knocked on another door to no answer. He went down to the next door and knocked and heard an okay. He opened the door and a small unseeable blur zipped past him and was standing right in front of Casi. Armane did see the slow moving Doze before him though. Armane pointed at Doze and said, “This is Doze and..” He turned and pointed at Itchy but he moved again. “That WAS Itchy…”-
-
Casi blinked then waved,”Yo, I’m Casi,nice to meet you.” The girl gave them a small smile, her grin having toned down to a neutral expression before they reached the room.
-
-Itchy came back to her and reached out his hand to shake. “I wouldn’t do that…” Armane gave him a glare, causing him to run off. Doze was still not even outside of the door. Armane sighed, “Moving on.” He went to the next door and knocked, he got a friendly answer and he opened the door to see Cans and Biscuits attempting to arm wrestle, Eggs was watching. Armane said, “The biggest one is Cans, the one he is arm wrestling is Biscuits, and the one at the side is Eggs.”-
