Eefa flinches the first time she loses.

Permalink

"We all lost," says Mikko. "We can try again!"

Permalink

"And what if we lose again?"

Permalink

"We can keep trying, or stop. It's only a game, so it doesn't matter very much."

Permalink

"We don't get hurt?"

Permalink

"Nope. It's just a game. It's just to have fun with; nobody gets hurt."

Permalink

Eefa is suspicious but will play a few more times to check.

Permalink

They win the second and third times!

Permalink

Well that doesn't let her check to see if it's dangerous! What if she throws a fourth game on purpose.

Permalink

That apparently makes the oranges suspect she's bored of the game and pack it up.

Permalink

"I want to finish this one!"

Permalink

"- it looked like you were trying to lose," says Mikko. "The point of the game is to try to win it."

Permalink

Mikko is glared at.

Permalink

"It looks like you're in a cranky mood and not a game mood," he says.

Permalink

She has no idea what that means.

"Want to finish playing it."

Permalink

...yeah, okay, expressed preferences are rare enough that they'll unpack and go back to it, though on their turns they don't help with losing the game on purpose at ALL.

Permalink

She can try to lose quite hard then.

Permalink

They lose the fourth game. The oranges look kind of puzzled at her.

Permalink

Does anything happen to hurt her?

Permalink

Nope.

Mikko slowly starts putting the game away again.

Permalink

She'll help.

"We didn't get hurt even though we weren't supposed to lose," she informs the oranges. 

Permalink

"Right," says Chioss. "Games don't hurt to lose. They're just for fun. It wouldn't be very fun if they hurt you!"

Permalink

"Could be fun for other people if it hurt me?" she suggests. She's confused why Chioss didn't think of this.

Permalink

"No!" exclaims Mikko. "It's not fun to hurt other people either!"

Permalink

"Hrm. Not sure if I believe you."
