Lazerat plucked the three darts out of the board, left there from someone’s last game, and gave a little shrug to Zoremet’s inquiry. “Well, if someone walks in front of the board, I imagine they deserve to be hit by a dart.” He pointed to the floor where some lines had been painted to help mark out the area to avoid walking through. “Those help in keeping wandering to a minimum. And unless you have a terrible grip and toss behind you or your aim is so far off course, you shouldn’t have to worry.” Even the worst players he’d seen hadn’t accidentally hit someone so Lazerat was confident Zory wouldn’t either—even with the slight wobble he had spotted a moment earlier.
“We won’t play with any fancy rules and just keep it simple. Try aiming for the centre but we’ll call it a success if you hit anywhere on the board.” Lazerat walked through what he knew worked for himself, giving a few pointers before finally giving a demonstration. It went left of the bullseye but landed in an area he was pleased with. “I am by no means an expert but it’s a lot of fun. Here,” he handed Zory the other two darts and guided him through the position to stand and hold the dart and when to release.
The first two attempts were… something. Lazerat didn’t laugh but he ran the risk of making his lip bleed with how hard he was biting it. “The throwing technique is definitely not one I’ve seen before but it could work,” he pointed out as he fetched the darts for his friend to try again. He didn’t mind standing on the sidelines for more attempts as any game they played wouldn’t be fair just yet. Buy Zory was proving to be a quick learner and coordinated as each toss improved to some degree. After several more tosses, he was at least hitting the board and with some aim achieved going by the excitement.
He wrapped an arm around Zoremet to give him a sideways hug while smiling and pointing at the board. “Well done, Zory! Look at the clustering you did with those ones! With the skill emerging, I won’t feel too bad when I beat you.”
