Amrita had been pretty much harassing Ren quite a bit lately. First was about setting up the Yearbook booth to get everything going on the actual purpose of the 'club', and after day one of the booth being up, she was bothering him about extracurriculars that could be done in Yearbook's name. She only had a couple of ideas - and even those ideas were minutely borrowed from previous years yearbooks (though they looked to be old enough to belong to her clan elders, really). No matter how old or how borrowed she was hellbent on giving it a shot, and poor Ren, her now-dubbed co-president of the Yearbook, was never going to hear the end of it.
School was stressful after all, and she wanted some fun for everyone to do on the side!
A text had started their little meeting, and as they walked campus she expressed the game she had her sights on playing - something involving clothes pins. For an Undead she was pretty animated as she talked, her backwards hands becoming little pincers as she explained the whole pinning your target deal; of course she pinned herself with her pincer-hands, because it probably wasn't polite to suddenly pinch Ren.
"So?" She asked when she was finished, staring up at the Gryphon. "What do you think?"

He had no idea when he'd somehow become the unofficial co-president of the Yearbook committee - but Ren was all right with it anyway, and despite the fact that Amrita seemed a little anxious about the whole thing, he was quite keen on helping out anyway - so everything had worked out nicely.
Now he walked along beside her with his hands slipped into the pockets of his black, pinstriped slacks, wings lightly rustling as they pressed against his back, his tail flicking against his leg.
"I think," said Ren, once she had finished talking. "it sounds like a great idea."
He smiled brightly at her, and then shifted, one ear flicking backwards against his short blonde hair and tilted his head to look at her. "And I think this is a great idea to kick Tybalt's butt..."
Tangents, Ren, tangents.
He cleared his throat, coughing surreptitiously. "Er, that's beside the point. Really, I think this is a great idea, Amrita, you've really thought things through."

Amrita grinned at Ren's little tangent, though she certainly did not recognize it as one. "Well yeah! But uh, don't actually hurt him, that's not the point!" There was a mild tsk to her voice as she stressed this to him, but as she was still smiling clearly he was off the hook about it. She was growing fond of minor rivalries, they made life interesting so long as they never got out of control, and Ren certainly never seemed the type to lose control. Tybalt though, well...she didn't quite remember Tybalt very well. "You can play, too! I think any of the yearbook group can, the more the merrier, right?" If she played though, she wouldn't take any prizes; that just felt weird to her. Ren and the rest of them however, could take whatever he won!
"Ahh...th-thanks, but uhm...It's not my idea." The patchwork admitted sheepishly, idly scratching her bone cheek. "I read it somewhere and...thought it'd be fun. I just wanted to get someone's opinion on it." She admitted, ducking her head shyly. Despite having all these ideas and all these previous games to bounce off of, she was a little unsure of how they would be received, or if people would actually play along.
"You'd actually play it, then? And uhm...Would you like to rest run it with me? I found these..." A backwards hand dug into her pant pocket, digging out four slightly snippy clothes pins of various colours. "So it'd be you, me, and...maybe grab someone else once we've gone through it?"

"Oh, no, I won't hurt him," said Ren way too cheerfully, as though he were saying the exact opposite of what he really meant. He gave Amrita a bright smile and pushed a lock of hair away from his face, the tiny chime of bells ringing in his ears. "That being said, I think I'd really like to play. It sounds like something a lot of students to get into."
He rocked back on his heels, wings flapping, and added, "And thanks for letting me be a part of this. I like helping out when I can, you know!"
Flashing her another smile, Ren's eyes flickered down towards the clothespins in Amrita's hands, and he gave a small nod, reaching out to pick one up, dangling it from freckled fingers.
"Sure thing," he said, and glanced around. "I wonder who I could bother to help us...

Amrita was thoroughly fooled by Ren's reassurance. Whew she thought, relieved that he didn't want to hurt Tybalt. "Well, thank you for helping me with this! I was lucky to find you~" She said, completely innocently and meaning every moment of it. Having someone so dedicated to helping was rare in her life, and it was a great change of pace for her. Plus, he had great ideas, could handle nasty crowds and was super nice to boot.
"Ah well, we'll just go drag someone into this later~" As Ren picked one up, she slipped two back into her pocket, leaving her with a snapping little green pin with what looked like ripped purple pants. She clipped it open and closed, listening to it growl and hiss and click. Charming little thing, really.
"Okay, so one of us has the other's name, and the other has someone else's entirely. So if I get your name, you have to avoid my clip, and vice versa!" She explained, and then held out a backwards hand, balled into a fist. "Rock-Paper-Scissors to see who has one of our names?" Yet another game she only learned about during school! It was an excellent way to decide things, really.
(( 1 = Rock, 2 = Paper, 3 = Scissors, standard RPS rules reply! ))

"Ah, well," said Ren, in an oh-so-bashful manner as he scuffed the toe of his shoe against the ground. But he was grinning, and couldn't keep up the facade for very long.
The pin in Amrita's hand was wriggling, snapping, and Ren peered curiously at it, tilting his head to the side. "Got it," he said with a nod, wings rustling as they pressed against his back. Tail curling around his leg, he pulled his hands free from his pockets and held one above the other.
"One...two...three...shoot - "
Rock. Ren dropped his hand and smiled.
"Looks like you're up first!"

WOO!
Wait.
Was she supposed to want to win this one? Ahhhh.
"Okay!" Just to be safe, Amrita went through the rules again, since she had only gone through it once before.Game Mechanics Legend Attacker is the one trying to do the pinning. Defender is the one trying to avoid being pinned. HP in regards to the Attacker is the stamina of the pin they're using. HP in regards to the Defender is the stamina of their escape attempt.
Everything Else Use Y1 Mechanics (2d6, -6) Both parties have 15 HP If attacking, you must get your opponent to 0 hp to successfully pin them. If defending, you must get your attacker to 0 hp to escape If the defender hits 0 HP, the attacker gets their clothes pin and may move on to the next target. If the attacker hits 0 HP, their pin has passed out and they must wait 6 OOC hours before attempting to pin the Defender again. You may only have 1 game PRP running at any given time; so if you are attacking in one PRP, you may not have a second PRP for defending!
"Does that make sense? Do you need me to go through it again?" If this were a video game, there would be a little pop up giving Ren two options; 1) Okay, I got it! and 2) One more time... It appeared he seemed to understand, and so after a moment or two she found a way to hold the pin that made it easy on her, finally taking a stance.
When she lunged at Ren, the clip was snapping eagerly, trying to nick any loose fabric to get a grip on.(( Amrita is an AttackerPin HP: 15/15 Damage: 1 ))

"I think I've got this," said Ren, with a nod, straightening and getting into position.
Amrita flung herself towards him, the little pin scrabbling for him, and Ren gave a shout of surprise and amusement, staggering back a few steps. Grinning, he darted away from her, smoothing down the front of his shirt and tugging on the suspenders.
"Not quite, but almost - "

The way Ren dodged made her laugh, and his sudden movement out of her clip's grasp made her stumble. The clip was snarling and snapping to try and grab him anyway.
"Yeah but I'm not done yet!" She promised with a giggle, changing tactics to instead toss the clip at him; maybe it'll clip itself!

Ren ducked, his hands going over his head as the clip went flying over, bonking his forehead in the process.
"You are so not winning this," he said, giving her a Look that clearly said he had every intention of not getting clipped as he pranced away again, attempting to get out of range.

"We'll see about that!" Amrita challenged, trying to run past Ren to grab the clip that insisted on nipping at his heels. "You're getting slower!" At least, she thought he was. A little bit.

"I beg to differ," said Ren, with as much dignity as he could muster.
...which wasn't much, considering that the little clip was now dogging at his heels and he was having trouble attempting to walk.
"Off off off, you - "

"Yeah but---AKJGHAKGBA!" Amrita tripped while she tried to grab the pin; the good news was that it stopped biting Ren's heels looking for something to grab onto. The bad news - for Amrita, anyway - was that the pin was now crushed under her backwards hand. Whoops. "Ooowwww~"

Ren paused in his skittering around to bounce back over to Amrita, peering down over her.
"You okay?" he asked her, with a slight frown, holding out a hand to her.

"Augh, ugh, yes." Amrita pushed herself back up to her hands and knees, holding onto the growling and wriggling clip as she went. "Sorry..." Ren's offered hand was given a blank stare, and after a moment of attempting to process what was going on her eyes flicked up to meet his, her lips curling into a wide grin; her hand shot up, trying to clip him.
