Zephyr puts his hand behind his back.
"Okay. I will follow your lead."
As always, he doesn't know how to deal with flattery, so he ignores it.

Absinthe nods.
"Rock. Paper. Scissors." she says, pulling her hand out and showing her flat hand.
Paper.

"Rock. Paper. Scissors."
Rock.
Zephyr holds out his fist, confidently!

She wraps her hand over his fist.
"Paper beats rock. I win this one."

The confusion is plain on Zephyr's face when she does that.
Maybe... maybe he didn't do it right. Why would anything beat rock?
"Again."
He says firmly, concentrating!

Her eyes soften.
"Right. Best two of three. Let's go again. Rock, paper, scissors."
This time she reveals scissors. Gotta keep it...interesting.

"Rock. Paper. Scissors."
Once again, the fist comes out, and it's the most clenched, solid fist you'll ever see.
Truly, a rock if there ever was one.
"Rock wins."

"Correct." she giggles.
"You win this one. It all comes down to this!"
She brings her hand back behind her.
"Are you ready?"

Victory. He can feel it coming closer.
Zephyr puts his hand behind him again, nodding. He's concentrating so hard. Every fiber of his body is going into this last reveal.
"Ready."
With a breath, he nods.
"Rock. Paper. Scissors."
His fist is actually glowing with his Ki when he clenches it in front of him!

"Rock, paper, scissors." Absinthe says, revealing a flat hand and wrapping it around his glowing fist again.
"Heheh. Oops! Looks like I won."

Wait...how?
But he picked rock!
Zephyr frowns so hard, as he doesn't like losing.
"Fine."

"You were a worthy adversary." she says seriously, her brows furrowing.
"Remember this lesson. The hardest object isn't always the best one."

Zephyr huffs through his nose.
"The rock needs to be harder and faster."
He nods in affirmation, completely understanding her point.
"Camp's this way."
He says, turning and squatting, ready to jump away!

Well. Sure, alright.
Absinthe watches him squat, remembering the thudding from before.
So she hops onto his back to hitch a ride.
"I'm ready~."

Zephyr's eyes go wide, and he slowly turns his head to look at her over his shoulder.
"....you can't jump?"
Or fly. He can fly, he just doesn't think to.
