I had a weird, quite detailed Touhou dream just now.
If I remember correctly, I was in a place kinda like a festival with all those colorful little flags around and stuff, except a really long table was somewhere close to me, giving the feeling of a tournament of something, as there were multiple sets of two people in front of each other, each playing something.
So, being interested in what they're playing and whether or not I can join them, I got closer to... ... Kogasa and Parsee. Just seeing the game gave me a sort of nostalgic feeling. It was Backgammon ((who plays that game even :V )). Somehow Parsee seemed to get a bit nervous (or Jealous
) when I got close to that match, I didn't know why until later. I don't know who actually won that match, since at what seemed like mid-game, I went to watch another game.
Going to one of the ends of the freaking long table, passing through some old men playing against each other (not all of them were Touhou characters apparently) , I saw Byakuren and Shou playing at the end of the table, the game being finished with Byakuren's victory before I even got there, Shou leaving her seat. ((Now that I think of it, it was probably more of a friendly game than a serious match, maybe Byakuren was even going easy on her. ))
After that, Byakuren left her seat too, approaching me, seeming calm as usual with a little smile on her face. The next thing I remember, was me saying a thing, in Japanese (Totally not my native language, nor I ever learned it properly) , something like "Taishou Taisen wa Ikaga?" , now that I think of it it translates to "How about a captain fight?" or something like that, Byakuren apparently accepting, returning to her previous seat, me replacing Shou. It was then that I understood why Parsee tensed back then, it was probably because I was her assigned captain/leader , and I was watching her match directly. A lot of people were watching that match of ours, me vs Byakuren, at least about 8 spectators (couldn't identify any Touhou characters among them though...) . I clearly remember rolling for who starts, Byakuren rolled 2 4, and I rolled 1 1 (doubles lol ) , I clearly said in English "At least it's doubles..." , chuckling to myself a little. After Byakuren made her first move (which I don't remember, I looked at her rather than at the board for some reason, what I do remember is her hand reaching far into the board, towards her two 'isolated' as I like to call them, so probably her move was there.) , the dream then ended.
I really wanted to beat Byakuren there, but in good spirits, Gensokyo-style
. It was like Backgammon entered Gensokyo, and there was a huge tournament with two teams, for each assigned a captain (huge teams :wat: ) , each team battling it out, only the winning team being able to challenge the opposing captain... or the two captains can challenge each other like what actually happened. Food for thought is, that I didn't have any chance to look at myself in the dream, so it's kinda nice to imagine 'what if I was *insert character here*' , my character of choice being Myouren.
Lastly, I WAS good at Backgammon, but I stopped playing that, and as a result my skills greatly rusted.
