Yeah, and I'll blow you outta the water in that too.
( jinx teases right back while shifting her weight from one foot to the next. a resemblance of the past creeps and swirls within her bones, a scar that once healed, but now steadily reentering the surface. a time when her world was less terrible and she had a decent family.
she and ekko did this exact thing once upon a time; ripping on each other before starting a game match. and every day, they kept score by documenting each win on whatever blank sheet of paper they could find. if jinx remembers exactly, ekko was the one in the lead. typical. that bug always found a way to one up her at the very last second. it's years later and it's still so damn infuriating. )
Do we really gotta enter a coin to play?
( she asks, aiming the barrel at the secondary flashing sentence (a way to draw the attention away from her brief silence prior). it'd make sense if this game was personally owned by someone. but if it's a free for all, who are they paying to, exactly? hopefully not the council. )
