The stories still in contention:
Your Move by HoopyFrood
Born just minutes after the Universe began, her most pressing concern had always been how to fill the great, unfathomable sea of time.

“Bishop to b5.”

"To make you better able to deal...with things."
Mother's explanation for the little theatre shows we did.

We played it solemnly, ferverently, intently.
We played it from love.
We're playing it still...
