I'm terrible at most of them, but yes, they are games. [ tilts his head. ] Are places like these familiar to you? I know many of our number have expressed to me that this place is overwhelming.
[ he'll show her the taiko game, though - gestures for her to take a drumstick. you look like the kind of girl that could have some fun whacking a drum tbh ]
[she steps forward and takes a drumstick. okay. let's go.
she is going to beat the shit out of this drum. but she'll do it in rhythm because she does actually know how to play instruments, so like, she's got a decent sense of rhythm.]
...I suppose I have my mother to thank for that. She taught me to play the guzheng, and though it is a very different instrument, any musician must be able to keep a rhythm.
So many of you prefer to be addressed informally... I fear I will get into the habit and will offend someone, should I make it back to Daxing. Very well, Jiaoqiu it is. [waner smiles faintly.] ...I suppose I have. This "Heaven" is very pleasant, which... I imagine is the point.

No, this is entirely unfamiliar to me. I have never seen a collection of games such as this in Daxing.

between the two of them they're going to get a kickass score tbh ]

when the score pops up, she looks pleased.]
I can see why you were playing this one before. That was enjoyable.
no subject
[ he's pleased too! ]
But I thought that might be true. You seem like you have a good sense of rhythm.

[she smiles, accepting the compliment.]

Oh - the guzheng, I know that instrument. You play? [ wah!! familiarity! ]
I don't know if they're available here, but I'd love to hear you play sometime, if you wouldn't mind...
no subject
[she smiles.]
I would be glad to perform, but if you have instruments you enjoy playing, I would love to hear that too.

[ he folds his arms behind his back. ]
Perhaps I'll try to learn. We have nothing but time, here.

Ah - I'm sorry, I've forgotten - did we ever exchange names? There are so many new faces that I've had a difficult time keeping everyone straight.

[she did read his profile, so she knows it, but she will do the polite thing and allow them each to make their introductions.]
My name is Su Waner. And your name is, sir...?
no subject
Jiaoqiu. Sir is not necessary - but it is good to meet you properly. Have you settled in alright?

[ sometimes you're a rude bitch ]
It is supposed to be paradise. I've found it acceptable so far, though I would prefer a real garden to exist.
no subject
[she shrugs.]
...then again, who knows where else that "train" may take us in the future? Perhaps a stop with a real garden will become available to us later on.
