Chess Dialogue for Mozzie and Neal

[elrhiarhodan]

Shhhhh ... I am obviously not terribly busy today.

Does anyone out there play chess?  I need some correct chess dialogue - something that would sound authentic when Mozzie says -

"That's checkmate in five  moves."

I do play chess, but it's more against the computer or the occasional match with a cousin than anything else.

However, I did once write a fic in the very, very small fandom of 'Finding Bobby Fischer' and found a couple of informative little sites that held a number of terms, matches, and strategies that helped me get things right. Maybe they'll help?

Thank you! This will definitely be a help.

I hope so! And you're welcome. ^_^

When do you need it by?

This sounds like a good excuse to listen to my chess nerd bf be nerdy. But I won't have a chance to talk to him until late tonight.

ALSO YAY MORE MOZZIE FIC. :D

No rush. The good news is that SmallFandomFest is a very nice place. There are no penalties for failing to post a fill, and I can hold the fill until the next posting period (about three months from now).

The snippet of dialogue is for Elizabethan Neal and Elizabethan Mozzie playing chess in the Fleet Prison.

Pretty close to done. Send me a private message with an email you'd like me to send the stuff to.
