chesspolitik: (Each Game Of Chess)
[personal profile] chesspolitik
Anatoly had his routine for chess. He played his games in the rec room until he was gently reminded of the need for eating or for taking a break. This afternoon he had set up his board on a table outside of his hut - not only to take advantage of the sunshine but to shield himself and his opponent from the prying eyes of one Freddie Trumper. Yes, he might be Jonas's protege but that did not mean he had to be present at every game, especially for this one.

"Black or white?" Anatoly asked as he faced Jonas, an easy smile on his face. They had played many times before but there was nothing quite like the thrill of anticipation, of waiting for the first move and the game to start properly.

Jonas knew all too well about Lex's encounters with Freddie, he'd heard about them from the other end. And it really only increased his curiosity, not that he would say that in front of either man. Maybe he'd bring that up with Anatoly next time he was alone with the man.

"And I would love to stay for dinner. Though Lyre might come looking if I stay too late." The large blue cat was oddly over protective of his owner.

Who needs a dream?
Who needs ambition?
Who'd be the fool
In my position?
Once I had dreams
Now they're obsessions
Hopes became needs
Lovers possessions
