Happy Birthday, Uncle Les.

For your special day I thought I might let you have a win 😊😇

(Claudia's gift for Lestat is an elegant marble chess set)

	Thank you for the beautiful gift, mon ange. I think we ought to play a game tonight and see how well I fare against you. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	I thought the nice new apartment deserved a nice set. Maybe you can practice while I’m away. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You thought right, of course. ~~I keep forgetting you will~~ Always. Though that may be a matter of convincing Louis to play for once. Or perhaps there is another who lives here who enjoys chess. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You’ll have to ask around. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I am certain I will be able to find someone who would like to play a game or two in your absence. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	We can have a rematch, at Christmas. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	vampirelestat 2024-11-08 09:27 pm UTC (link)
	That sounds like a deal to me. Do you think we ought to rent out a home for the trip? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	growintothis 2024-11-08 09:30 pm UTC (link)
	That'd be nice. Maybe we can find one close to home. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	vampirelestat 2024-11-08 09:34 pm UTC (link)
	I am certain we can. I'll even ask them to have it decorated for our arrival. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	This what happens when you get access to all that money again? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	vampirelestat 2024-11-08 09:37 pm UTC (link)
	All that money. This is a fraction of what we had before, cherie, but I think a beautiful Christmas is a good thing to spend it on, no? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	growintothis 2024-11-08 09:39 pm UTC (link)
	I think it should last you a little while. It's a good thing. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	vampirelestat 2024-11-08 09:40 pm UTC (link)
	It will last us all quite a while, I promise. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	growintothis 2024-11-08 09:41 pm UTC (link)
	I'm not worried. You're not the only one with money. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	vampirelestat 2024-11-08 09:47 pm UTC (link)
	I can't say that I'm surprised by that. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	growintothis 2024-11-08 09:49 pm UTC (link)
	Wanted some of my own for travelling. Have to get you and Louis souvenirs after all. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	vampirelestat 2024-11-08 09:54 pm UTC (link)
	That is very sweet of you. Have you decided where you will be going yet? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	growintothis 2024-11-08 09:58 pm UTC (link)
	A whole lot of places, starting in Norway. I've got an itinerary. I left a copy with Louis, cause he was doing all this planning for me. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	vampirelestat 2024-11-08 10:03 pm UTC (link)
	Make sure to take a coat with you, oui? I know we do well in colder weather, but Norway is especially cold this time of year. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	growintothis 2024-11-08 10:05 pm UTC (link)
	I bought one just for the occasion. It's green and so pretty. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	vampirelestat 2024-11-08 10:11 pm UTC (link)
	You will have to show it to me before you leave. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	growintothis 2024-11-08 10:13 pm UTC (link)
	I will. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Out of sheer curiosity, what is it that you're letting him have the win at? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	growintothis 2024-11-10 01:10 am UTC (link)
	Chess. He taught me how to play. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kittynorville 2024-11-10 01:12 am UTC (link)
	Chess is definitely not one of the things I've learned over the years. How long have you been playing? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	growintothis 2024-11-10 01:14 am UTC (link)
	It takes a bit of time to learn. About three years, maybe. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kittynorville 2024-11-10 01:16 am UTC (link)
	Well heck. I should really get a move on about that. I'll pester Stiles. He can take it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	growintothis 2024-11-10 01:18 am UTC (link)
	Does he play? Lestat needs some practice while I'm away. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kittynorville 2024-11-10 01:26 am UTC (link)
	Stiles can do anything he puts his mind to. But yes. He gifted me a set that I admit hasn't seen much use. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	growintothis 2024-11-10 01:28 am UTC (link)
	Then you should definitely have him teach you. You and Lestat can play too. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kittynorville 2024-11-10 01:35 am UTC (link)
	I'll see if I have a mind for it. It was never really a game I thought I would play. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	growintothis 2024-11-10 01:36 am UTC (link)
	I knew nothing about it before Lestat showed me. (Reply to this) (Parent)
