Sam snaps his fingers, and Credence practically jumps out of his skin. It's othing out of the ordinary--a snap, quick and not overly loud--but it's a knee-jerk reaction for Credence. A sound that's sudden and nearby and fast like that is more than alarming for Credence, it's frightening.

He does, however, compose himself after his initial jump and flinch, trying not to feel too embarrassed. This man is kind to him, and isn't like anything else he's experienced. He's just excited about the prospect of a new game, nothing more.

"My sister played a game like hopscotch often, too. To pass the time" He says carefully, "Though I don't think there are children in the village." At least, he hasn't seen any.

He does like chutes and ladders, though. Credence picks up the game piece, silently reveling in the fact that someone actually likes his idea.
