Someone needs to have a talk with my cat about being an enabler. All I want to do is stay in bed and she constantly tells me “you do you boo”

Do you know the game?? I love this shot I grabbed years ago and how the absence of matter from the components create the essence of the game. Do you see it??

Kiri-Ai: the duel is my most played 2 player game. Why? Because it’s always with me. The game is a smooth two card dance each round as each ninja perfects stance and timed attacks to win the final blow. [Photos from my annual holiday set project]
