    Dallas had spent the earlier part of the day wandering around the castle, exploring various rooms and just generally sticking his nose where it probably didn't belong. On one of the lower levels, he'd discovered a big box full of fun looking games and toys. He dug around it for a bit before discovering a small, slightly deflated football.

    [i]Oh hell yeah.[/i] He'd played this a few times back at the Church. It was something they did just for fun every now and then but the more he thought about it, the more the idea of a clan-wide league appealed to him. Think about it: each clan with it's own team, playing against each other every week or so. Championships. SUPERBOWLS. Football brings people together man.

    Leather ball clamped in his jaws, the seal point marched outside and glanced up at the sky. Yes, perfect weather. This was going to be fun. He dropped the ball at his paws and cleared his throat. "[b]Anyone up for a game?[/b]" he called out to whoever happened to be around to hear him.[hr][/fancypost]

    Kiko was, and trotted over merrily. "Just tell me the rules and I'm in!" she mewed, taking a seat in front of the male.

    "[b]No, not twister. Sorry.[/b]" Dallas replied with a chuckle. "[b]Maybe next time though. That, ah, does sound like a lot of fun actually.[/b]"

    He did a quick headcount of those who had show up so far. Akiko, Logan, Dean, and Ulfur. That was five all together, counting himself. "[b]Let's, uh, wait for a few more to join and then I'll get into the rules of the game. Sound good?[/b]"[hr][/fancypost]

    Blurrypaw slowly approached the crowd of fellow Edeners. He had just exited the castle to do some more exploration of the area, but once again stumbled into a crowd. There were quite a number gathered together, ready to play a game of some kind. Blurrypaw didn't know what, but he'd find out soon enough. [glow=black,2,300]"If you need another p-player, I can join..."[/glow] the tom offered. [/fancypost]

    Titus was rather unsure if he could play sports, though he wasn't going to try and test his luck. "I believe that I shall just watch for now," he stated as he walked over




    [/fancypost][/fancypost]

    [fancypost borderwidth=0; text-align:justify; line-height:95%; width:470px; margin-top: -10px;]

    "[b]Ok! We're even then![/b]" Dallas replied triumphantly. He turned to Titus and tipped his head slightly. "[b]You can referee if you want? Make sure we play by the rules and all that.[/b]"

    "[b]Anyways, anyone else who wants to join in still has time, but, uh, for now I'll go over the rules of the game.[/b]" He cleared his throat and placed a forepaw on the ball. "[b]We're gonna have to take this further out into the open to set up a proper play area, but basically, there will be two 'endzones' at each end of the field. Typically teams have more than three players each, but I think we can manage with what we have. Whichever team has control of the ball is on 'offense' and their goal is to try and run with the ball to make it to the endzone and score a touchdown. The other team--or 'defense'--is going to try and stop you from making it by tackling you to the ground. Wherever they tackle you is where the teams line up on the next play. You have four chances to try and make it to the endzone before offense and defense switch and we restart at the middle of the field.[/b]"

    The actual rules were a little more complicated with downs and yards and all that good stuff, but he figured that it would probably be best if they simplify it as much as possible to avoid confusion. "[b]Ah, does anyone have any questions so far? We can run through a couple practices first before we start.[/b]"[hr][/fancypost]

    Akikopaw raised her paw, waiting a few seconds before beginning her question. "When you get tackled and the teams line up, what happens then?" she asked, just trying to fill in the gaps of her own mental visualisation of the game.

    "[b]You get another shot to run the ball to the endzone, starting from where you get tackled from.[/b]" Dallas answered. "[b]You get four chances in all to see how far you can get, and if you don't make it within four, the other team gets a chance. If, ah, that makes sense.[/b]"[hr][/fancypost]

    "W-woah! I love sports. It's been so long since I've had anyone to play one with." He was calm now. But he never got more competitive then when it came to his sports. Namely hockey. People shook in fear when they heard his name during hockey. He didn't know why though.


    Was just some friendly competition! Not the genocide of the opposite team. Silly them.

    "Well I know em' so well, I can say em' both forwards, and backwards eh. Now, I was never the best at it...but I'm all about sports!" 'And rules.' he'd add in softly, violet optics glittering. He was best at winter sports, but did lots of sports in the hotter seasons to...keep himself occupied, so he'd stop thinking about the winter sports. He found a nice hot chocolate during a cold fall morning, and a nice jog could help him work off all that access energy he had.


    He just knew how to stay relaxed. [color=#c2d3af]"I can give you the gist if you want." He'd add the last part in with a nice, good natured smile.

    "[b]Awesome! The more the merrier![/b]" Dallas purred. This would mean that one team would have an extra player, but that was ok. This was only friendly competition so they could bend the rules a bit. "[b]I'll lead one team.

    "Oh, well I'm not going to turn down your offer." He'd shuffle his paws, before looking up. He composed himself. No matter how confusing his life was at the moment, he'd make sure he looked like a decent captain. "Maple team! Thats our team name. N-Now...Dallas,I'm going to flip a coin...to see who get's to pick the first player." He'd lift up a penny in a paw. [color=#c2d3af]"Heads or Tails eh?"


    He seemed to have a lot of enthusiasm for this. Damn right cats could play football. But, he could just shift into his polar bear form if he really wanted to throw that football, nice and hard.

A game, was it? Like catch? Probably not, but whatever. They'd probably watch unless someone decided to put them on their team.

So you had to run the ball to the 'end zone'? It didn't seem all that complicated, but there was a question in his mind.

    "[b]Heads.[/b]" he replied in response to Matthew's question, flashing a quick smile in Everette's direction as they padded up. If they were going to play, the teams would be even again. Nice.

    He turned to Blurrypaw next. "[b]Oh definitely! The quarterback is the one who starts off with the ball and they can either try and run with it themselves or 'snap it' to another team member--snap meaning pass or toss of course.[/b]" Tossing would be a bit difficult for the four legged creatures, but passing would work just as well. "[b]Ah, the quarterback isn't the only one who can pass the ball though, anyone who has control over it can.[/b]"[hr][/fancypost]
