[ Helix was definitely the strategist of the two and knowing that he'd been off learning how to play chess over the last few weeks... well, that should probably make Aidan feel a little intimidated. He wasn't though — he'd played a similar game a few times before when he was younger and although he had no grand illusions of victory, he was pretty confident that he could put up a decent challenge.
Once satisfied with his setup he looked up at Helix, lopsided grin tugging at the corners of his mouth.]
