Cozy Glow pushed the pawn forward. A theatre of conflicts played out across her features before she moved the piece a second time. A predatory smile twisted her lips.
Flurry Heart grimaced, grateful to be distracted from her scolding cheeks.
"Should I even ask if you're sure?"
The smile widened. "A queen is always sure."
"Future queen. Somehow." Flurry Heart massaged her temples. "Anyway, the lesson is about respecting your pawns, remember?"
Cozy Glow rolled her eyes as her sole surviving pawn fell to a bishop. "Even though they're weak and useless..."
"They're an important part of your resources! One of the most important."
"More important than the Queen?"
Flurry Heart allowed the sweetly asked question to echo around her bedroom. "This was a dumb idea."
"Oh don't be like that. I love spending time with you."
Flurry Heart spluttered. "R—Really?"
Cozy Glow giggled. "See? I can respect my pawns."
A new one! First in a while, in fact. Written for the Feb Flashfic prompt, and tweaked a little (whilst still adhering to that contest's word limit).
Had fun with this one. It's a candidate for my occasional dalliance with turning a Flashfic entry into a longer piece of work.
