1 e4 e5 2 Nf3 Nc6 3 d4 ... is called the Scotch Game, as Liminaut spotted; clearly Hisao was using it to give Lilly a hint.
But we all know that Kenji loves his whisky too... so 'Scotch Game' might've meant something different to him!

I went for Hanako being enough of a chess scholar to use a chess game from 1950 to break up with Hisao, essentially, in a fic I did.

The entire chess game. And then some, because Hisao really is one stubborn dumbass. :lol:

Well, that wasn't necessarily her entire goal, you see, but it's what happened.

Fuck it, here's the fic, here's the chapter in which the chess game happens in. I'm not satisfied with how I ended my own story, though, really...

Nobody's ever satisfied with their own endings. Ask J.K. Rowling. :lol:

I was picturing something like this:

"Everyone who's my boyfriend, advance a pawn!"

[Hisao moves his hand toward a pawn]

"Uhp, not so fast."
NB: none of the above is a request

And no stutter. Wow, Hanako's improved.
