I love chess club SO MUCH. My HC is that Sylvain at first pretended to be bad at chess as part of his dumb playboy act, but realized that 1. actually playing seriously against good opponents was more fun and 2. beating Edelgard at chess pissed off both her AND Hubert and he found that hilarious.
ABSOLUTELYYYY i think he won hubert Once cos hubert treated him like an idiot and hubert has nightmares about it still. Sylvains never won against him again but he cant let it go
