Hearing Fourth announce tails doesn't make Zafika feel much better, it's just raising their stress because the game has really started now, and they don't know what this is going to be like. At all.

At least, unlike regular tic-tac-toe, it doesn't matter what square they try to claim, more so as that they try to answer correctly. As long as they get more answers right than Fourth, they should win, almost no matter what squares they pick. Just almost.

"Bottom center." They're restless, they should be good at staying still but the itch to start pacing is there, but they don't want to start actually pacing around. So, their finger is lightly tapping their bag, while their tail was swishing and coiling around their legs.
