'footsies'/'tootsies'
Does any of these sentences make sense:
a) "You play footsies with our enemies when you should be strong."
b) "You play tootsies with our enemies when you should be strong."

THANK YOU.

To literally play footsies with someone is to touch them with your foot under the table that you both are sitting at. Figuratively, it is to make a secret display of affection as ineffectual mollification.
