COLLIDE

The marbles went into every direction within the circle before falling into the hole... all but one. The lone marble was on the edge of the hole. It looked to be just a breath away from falling in. You got this?

His face lit up radiantly, the sort of expression that suggested he'd momentarily forgotten all of his self-doubts and there were other people in the room who might be watching. His gaze darted between the scattered marbles and the lone survivor perched precariously at the edge of the hole.

"Come on now..." he murmured under his breath, leaning forward.

Then, with all the seriousness of someone attempting a perfectly legitimate Gobstones technique, Nyle pursed his lips together and blew a careful puff of air toward the marble.

It didn't move. Because of course it wouldn't move.

He considered, briefly, asking 'please' of it ― as though the marble might simply respond to politeness ― before chuckling to himself and retrieving another marble. Outside encouragement it was. He stepped back to the line, took aim, and sent the new marble skimming toward the lone survivor, hoping the impact would be just enough to send it tumbling the rest of the way in.
