I'd be shocked if there's anyone who hasn't done this often. Or if there's a vast majority that don't occasionally do it still when bored/alone.

hmm. there are similar games too.
For example, stepping on shadows when you are outdoors and sunny.
I don't really think too much about it.
Although when hanako mentions about her little game, it seems very lonely and sad.
But then again, i find that side of her, enjoying such little things, to be cute~

Did it all through elementary school to the end of high school. It became less of a game and more of a habit as I got older.

I remember doing the tile game when I was a kid. Fun times. Hell, even as a grown man, I still do it from time to time for kicks.

I'm probably going to find myself doing it more often because of this game...

I usually do it outside when smoking and drinking coffee. In public, a young man in a suit, doing adult things, doing childish things. Also when holding hands with someone, it helps with the skin on skin contact sometimes.

I've done this, and still do it when the floor allows it (and when I'm bored). I should try acting like different chess pieces the next time, though.

This now comes to my mind whenever I think about tiles.

I just finished Hanako's story, and I can't get that one scene out of my head. It's the scene where she slows down walking and starts stepping on the dark tiles only.
The thing is, I do this too. Am I really that lonely to do that?
But my real question is, does anyone else do this?
(and if the writer of this part reads this, how did you come up with the inspiration to write that part?)
Games like that are quite old thing already.. Been there since people learned to jump from shape to another.. And there has been shapes on the floors for thousands of years.. :3
I even have done it for hours in World of Warcraft, while I was playing Alliance and idling in Ironforge.. I wonder how many times I have jumped on a tile there in total, wish there was a counter for it, since it was way more interesting than running around Orgrimmar's auction house roof.. D:

My elementary school had multicolored tiles, most being white, but there was this one design that showed up at turns and intersections of hallways: an X with blue edges, a green center, and red in between. In my young imagination, the blue became water, the red lava, and the green some odd swamp. If I stepped in the "lava," I would immediately jump into the "water" to save myself. The swamp slime, well... I don't really remember. I think I just shook it off

I've done something similar (one of the more comfortable things that Hanako did that remind me of myself). In our local shopping center, there are long dark lines on the edges of the floors, regularly interrupted by dark tiles. As child I often went along the lines, stepping on the tiles in between. I don't do this anymore, though.
