[video] Point 7

[drillsandballs]

Hey so... I've been thinking, we should to team sports or something here, build trust and teamwork, that kind of stuff!

And I have just the perfect thing! Soccer!

The game is pretty easy for anyone who doesn't know it, two teams try to kick the ball into a specific goal, while keeping it away from the other team and keeping the other team from getting the ball into the other goal.

I want to start playing this with people... maybe set up a schedule to play it even. Anyone want to come play?

...Soccer.

Right. The human sport.

Not that I particularly want to play said sport, but you seem to be forgetting one very important thing.

[Video]

[drillsandballs]

Yeah, it's a human sport, but I play it too~!

What am I forgetting?

[Video]

[glitteratimedic]

The fact that some of us are somewhat lacking in the ability to kick a ball with feet.

[He waves a set of paws in the air rather pointedly.]

[Video]

[drillsandballs]

Oh... hmm... I bet we could change the rules a bit... cause technically the ball can be moved with any part of the body except hands... and you don't exactly have those so... you have an extra advantage!

[Video]

[glitteratimedic]

Huh. I seem to recall hearing about that weird 'no-hands' rule back on Earth. And here I was about to ask about what sort of accommodations could be made for us of the bipedally disinclined.

That sounds fair enough.

For those that actually want to play, of course.

[Haughty sniff.]

[Video]

[drillsandballs]

Heh, yeah, you could use what ever you want... but only the goallie can use their hands to catch the ball... but heads, knees, arms... probably even tails.

Don't you want to? Isn't that why you had a worry?

[Video]

[glitteratimedic]

Such silly rules...

[SPUTTER.]

Of course not!

[He is clearly a lying liar who lies.]

Not in the least! Where would I even find the time!

[You mean your copious spare time between rare medical emergencies and drinking your circuits to the point of corrosion, Glit?]

[Video]

[drillsandballs]

Oh come on, it could be fun!

It won't be all the time, I still have to do work on the police force too.

I would like it if you joined us.

[Video]

[glitteratimedic]

Hrumph.

[He sits back on his haunches stubbornly, giving a sniff.]

I don't see why.

But. Perhaps I might. Sometime.

[Video]

[drillsandballs]

Because things are a lot more fun with others. It's no fun to be alone.

[He smiles sweetly, trying to encourage the other to join the game.]

[thermosomatic]

Vhat kind of a name is "soccer"?

[Video]

[drillsandballs]

Um... I don't know... Some languages call it football though

[Video]

[thermosomatic]

Zhat sounds even more stupid.

[whirr~]

But I can see how zhat might help vith at least keeping most of us occupied.

[Video]

[drillsandballs]

[Drill Boy pauses before laughing at seeing that switch.]

Oh that is a neat thing!

And yeah, maybe if people are busy with something like sports maybe there will be less issues.

[Video]

[thermosomatic]

[Blitzwing can never get used to people gawking at his face changes.]

At zhe very least, it will be a distraction.

[Video]

[drillsandballs]

[Drill Boy was taught by a reasonably well mannered kid, so that will be the only time.]

Some people get really into it though~! I love playing it.

[Video]

[thermosomatic]

Mm. I don't pay much attention to Earth affairs.

[Which is to say he thinks it's all stupid.]

[im_wavin]

Oooo Sounds like fun! Can I play???

[drillsandballs]

Of course, is there any reason you couldn't?

[im_wavin]

Nope! I just wanna play! [Because how can he pass up a chance to bat at a ball.]

[drillsandballs]

Good, cause I'd love to have you come play with me! And who ever else wants to play!

[drillsandballs]

A sport, I just described it.

[thxforthememories]

But... what's the point? Just... teamwork?
