While Mark did prefer Football to Basketball, the latter was still fun. He didn't give this much thought, though, as he dribbled around the court. The game was kinda boring all by himself. "It sure is lonely today," he muttered.

I was looking for the stables, when I ended up at the basketball court. Gosh, someone really needed to map this place. I sat down on the bench and looked at a bunch of sweaty guy's play basketball. Fun. I saw a boy a little older than myself, and he looked bored. I hadn't played much basketball, but I was willing to play. "Hey, mind if I join?" I asked him.

Mark gave the girl a big smile. "Not at all! I was hoping someone would come along, actually." He passed her the ball.

"The goal's to get this ball past you and into the hoop behind you, right?" I asked, remembering a unit we did in basketball in shcool. I began to bounce the ball with my left hand, but didn't make any attempt to through it, or move at any rate.

"Yes indeed." Mark said. Finally! He had been getting really bored of playing by himself. "So what's your name?" He said, smiling.

Subject: Re: Care to join me? (Open) Mon Sep 12, 2011 6:56 pm

"It's Candy. Just Candy. Not Candy Cane. My dad may be an idiot, but he's not that shallow." I said, giving the boy a glare, trying to make a move when he least expected it. "What about you?"

Mark blocked her. "Markus, but most people call me Mark." He nabbed the ball and started to dribble towards the goal. "Who's your parent?"

I gave a sigh. "Nyx." When Mark said his name, I moved to his side of the court, behind him, and then shot the ball in the hoop. "People back home didn't call me ninja for 'notin." I told him, smirking.

Subject: Re: Care to join me? (Open) Mon Sep 12, 2011 7:13 pm

Mark nodded, impressed. He picked up the ball and dribbled it to half court. "Good job. you played before?" He began to dribble towards her hoop.

Subject: Re: Care to join me? (Open) Mon Sep 12, 2011 7:16 pm

I gave a shrug, taking a few steps forward, trying to defend my hoop. "I played in school, and watched some other kid's play back home. Other than that, no." I told him. "I've never really been one for sports."

Subject: Re: Care to join me? (Open) Mon Sep 12, 2011 7:20 pm

Mark smirked. "Alright." He dribbled to the left, then suddenly bounced the ball right and caught it. He tossed into the hoop. "I have a bit more experience." He smiled.

Subject: Re: Care to join me? (Open) Mon Sep 12, 2011 7:28 pm

I gave a shrug. "I'm more...quiet, sneaky. Hence why, my few friends called me Ninja." I told him. "Oh, I don't think I asked you," I said, walking over and picking up the basket ball. "But whose your godly parent?"

Mark chuckled a bit at the question. "You'd never guess looking at me," the blond responded, "But I'm a son of Thanatos." He lowered his stance and prepared for her next move.

Subject: Re: Care to join me? (Open) Mon Sep 12, 2011 7:37 pm

I looked at him, confused. "Thantos?" I asked him, bouncing the basket ball. A little to the left, a little to the right. Just like I had seen the kids on my street do it thousands of times.

Subject: Re: Care to join me? (Open) Mon Sep 12, 2011 7:44 pm

Mark followed the ball with his eyes, keeping his stance wide. "Embodiment of Death." He said nonchalantly. "You been here long?" He waited for her to move.

((OOC: If you want to, read his profile.))

I shook my head. "I got here a few day's ago." I told him. "I...I ran away from a...a tough life." I looked away from him, only to run with the ball, still bouncing right behind him, and to through it into the basket, again.

Subject: Re: Care to join me? (Open) Mon Sep 12, 2011 8:09 pm

Mark narrowed his eyes. "I'll have to keep my eye on you." He smiled. "Well, it's good you're here now." He went to pick up the ball. "Do you like it here?"

Subject: Re: Care to join me? (Open) Mon Sep 12, 2011 8:11 pm

"Yea, so far." It's better than your dad trying to kill you, but I didn't say that. "Trust me, it's hard to keep an eye on a girl that you can't keep an eye on. Ok...that came out wrong." I said, walking over to Mark. I would NOT let him score again.

Subject: Re: Care to join me? (Open) Mon Sep 12, 2011 8:18 pm

"HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEYYYYY" Mark pouted. "You're not using your powers, are you?" He jumped out of Candy's way, dribbled past her and shot again. Score!

Subject: Re: Care to join me? (Open) Tue Sep 13, 2011 7:04 am

I gave Mark a stern look. "What, you think I have power's over basketballs? No way. Hello, my mom is Nyx, remember? Goddess of night, not basketball." I told him. Boys, can't live with them, can't live without them. "How in the world could I use my powers?" I was playing the game fair and square, I think, I told myself.

Subject: Re: Care to join me? (Open) Tue Sep 13, 2011 8:52 pm

"Nyx is night. Night and darkness. I don't know maybe you're really stealthy as your power!" He gave her a disgruntled look, but then smiled again. "It doesn't matter. It just nice to have someone else to play with!" He laughed.

Subject: Re: Care to join me? (Open) Tue Sep 13, 2011 8:56 pm

I shook my head. "No, I'm just good at being quiet, that's all." I said picking up the basketball and bouncing it a few times. "So the only thing that we do is get the ball into the hoop? That get's a littlbe boring, dosn't it? Isn't there, some other goal?" I asked.

Subject: Re: Care to join me? (Open) Wed Sep 14, 2011 12:29 am

"Not really, but if there are more people, teamwork can make it more fun." Mark smiled awkwardly. "You're pretty good at this for not having played much." He awaited her move.

Subject: Re: Care to join me? (Open) Wed Sep 14, 2011 7:04 am

I shrug. "Like I said, when I was little and my dad was...out, I'd watch some other people play basketball. Guess I just picked up the moves from them." I was getting ready to take a step, when I accidentaly tripped and fell. The basketball rolled over to Mark's feet. I mutterd a few colorful words under my breath, but quiet enough so that way hopefully no one would here.

Subject: Re: Care to join me? (Open) Wed Sep 14, 2011 6:19 pm

Mark ignored the ball and rushed over to check on Candy. "Are you alright? That was quite the fall." He crouched next to her, and offered her a hand.
