Homeless, possibly looking?

[craps]

As much as I appreciate you finally bringing me out, I don't wish to just sit around until you decide to bring me somewhere. At least have the courtesy to give me a deck of cards.

[...Alright. Thank you]

Speaking of which. Who's up for a game of blackjack in the meantime?

[aria_di_celes]

I think I'll pass on the blackjack. I'm not much for games of chance.

[Even though she has one hell of a poker face.]

[craps]

That's a bit of a shame, Celes. You're missing out on a lot.

[aria_di_celes]

I'll leave the high stakes gambling to you. Maybe you can sucker someone else into it.

[Maybe Edgar- oh, I guess not.]

[craps]

Sucker is such a strong word. I'm only looking for a friendly game.

[Maybe]

[edgar_roni]

[The desire to lose, and lose terribly, doesn't strike Edgar as a decent or enjoyable way to pass the time, so he refuses with a wave of his hand.]

Pass. There are other things you can do in the interim, you know.

[craps]

[Y'all need to take a gamble more often]

I know. I just thought someone might want to take a risk, but that doesn't seem to be the case.

[edgar_roni]

[Too much to lose, not enough to gain; not the kind of odds Edgar enjoys.]

Not everyone shares your devil-may-care sensibilities, Setzer.

[craps]

[He figured]

I'm sttarting to notice that. So what is it you do to pass the time here?

[edgar_roni]

Acquaint myself with the ladies, of course.

[Was there ever any doubt? And, really, was there ever a need to ask such a question to begin with?]

There are so many of them out here, as far as the eyes can see...

[bloodcurdling_cheesecake]

Black... Jack? How d'you play?

[craps]

It's actually very easy! I can teach you if you'd like.

[He's already shuffling his deck of cards]

[bloodcurdling_cheesecake]

I ain't got a lot ta gamble. [But she's still going to watch.] But sure, it's something to do after all.

[craps]

Normally I'd be more up for a wager, but I'll take this too.

[Setzer deals two cards to both of them, once card face down and the other faced up]

Now the object of the game is to hit 21, or get as close as possible, without going over. Jacks, Queens, and Kings are worth 10 points, and Aces are either worth 1 or 11. You look at both of your cards and decided if you want to take a risk and ask for another, or stay put.

Are you ready?

[bloodcurdling_cheesecake]

[She's nodding at his explanation. Yeah, that seems pretty easy.] Royalty is ten, Aces are one or eleven...

Yeah, I got it. I'm ready.

[desertdaggers]

Are we putting a wager on it, or just passing the time?

[ethereal_earth]

Hello, Setzer.

[Sup Senior. Fellow FF card user here.]

That is in my best interest. [He flicks his hand, and cards are floating around his body.] Your cards or mine?
