Sit down. Take a look at yourself.

Don't you want to be somebody?

Life is but one long, large gamble, isn't it? A seat at the poker table, and you wait for the cards to be dealt. If dealt a royal flush, the bet is easy. If dealt a two-pair, one does the best they can.... they bluff.

How many of you are bluffing, I wonder? And has the Queen of

I prefer to deal.

((ooc: she is oh so very, very amused.))

Do you, now? Sleight of hand, control the outcome - in the end, you can play favourites or completely devastate the players.

Yes, charming, indeed.

[glock30]

Dealers have control of the whole game. Makes it ten times easier to play to your advantage.

You like cards?

[roy_de_epee]

Ah, but the fun of it all is the unpredictability. Where the next hand will take you... or if you'll use what you have to full potential.

Why, yes. I must confess myself home to a gambler's heart. I assume you share that.

[glock30]

Or if you step up and take matters into your own hands.

You could say that. They say gambling's an addiction, you know.

[roy_de_epee]

Good girl. Precisely.

Addiction is such a cruel word. I prefer a lust for the cards. It sounds more poetic.

[glock30]

Looks like we've got something else in common then, if you're calling me a good girl.

I don't know if I'd go with poetic , but I'll admit that I have to agree with you on that one.

[roy_de_epee]

Something in common. I suppose so, milady.

Addiction is for, say cigarettes although that sort of addiction in and of itself isn't necessarily as fatal.

[glock30]

Milady, huh? Cute.

Something wrong with that?

[roy_de_epee]

Considering I myself light one up on occasion, I see no problem.

[glock30]

You sure we weren't meant to be bosom buddies?

[roy_de_epee]

If you'd like to believe so.

Apologies - no introductions were made. Muraki Kazutaka. And yourself?
