Magnificent Seven

My dear lady.

I did not expect you to climb back up into the saddle again. You do tend to bite off more than you can chew. Are you really sure you can handle taking me on again?

Ah do promise that I won't cause you too much trouble. Just remember that without my illustrious leader to keep me in line I may.... take advantage of a few things.

[Have one saloon owner, oily as they come and not especially good at hiding it. He's smiling now, all charm and tempered interest.]

Taking advantage is what life's all about. What were we put on this earth for, if not to enjoy its fruits?

[He extends a hand.] Name's Cy Tolliver. Tell me, son: what's your game?

[ Ezra can tell when he is meeting someone as tricky as he is. He would place this man at Maude's level. Not to be easily messed with. ]

I could not agree more, good sir.

[ He tips his hat respectfully. ]

Ezra P. Standish, at your service. I tend to favor five card stud.

You know, I took you for a man of taste, Mr. Standish. Looks like I wasn't mistaken. [Cy's taking a quiet read on the man, and all in all he likes what he sees. This one's no sucker, but they can't all be easy to play, and it's good to come up against a challenge once in a while.]

Where are you coming from?
