A cold, delicate hand grabs yours and pulls. It pulls, and it pulls... there's a sense of urgency in this icy grasp, as well as a trace of reluctance. Abruptly the hand let's go, right as your vision fades to black, and for a brief moment, only a brief moment, your senses disappear. There's only the eerie sensation of weightlessness before your feet are settled back on solid ground again.

Oh. You have her interest. The knife is still at Echo's throat, but she pulls her hand away from her face.

"What kind of game are we talking about here?"

[ ... looks at Kise, GOOD QUESTION ]

[ that is an excellent question. Let's bullshit something ]

We can go with a logic game or sports. Your pick.

She just looks between the two of you two, amused.

"Logic, then. Even if neither of you have useful skills. Is that right?"

-- Logic?!

[ HISSED UNDER HIS BREATH AT KISE ]

I--it'll be fine, trust me!

[ talking with his voice low, at Aomine ]

... do you even know any logic games?

No!!

—Let's have a game that's a mix of both!!

She sounds annoyed at first.

"What were you two—oh... you're changing it? Very well! I know it'll be a game I can win, so just pick already, or I'll pick off parts of her face!"

That's even worse!

It's dodgeball.

Huh, sort of. Can you materialize three tennis balls or something like that? I'll explain the rules if you can.

"Tennis balls?"

Even if Victorian Pandora Hearts time had tennis balls, Zwei wouldn't know them. But at least she's cooperative.

"Let me manage something else!"

Three balls that are conveniently the size of tennis balls roll out of one of her sleeves, and stack ~magically~ on the palm of her free hand. They look like eyeballs, though, but in a very cartoony way!

... We got enough room for dodgeball here?

It's better if we don't! It can work, really!

[ and then he turns to zwei ]

Well, here's the rules. Aominecchi and I will use these to hit you. You can move either left or right to dodge them, but you can't jump or move forward or backwards.

If even one balls hit you, it's our win.

If it doesn't, then it's yours.
