. . . be glad that this game's set up is meant to make it fun. There are a lot of ways a game like this one could go bad quickly.

[outstandingbalance]

So I hear.

Still, this one hasn't been so bad.

[blackjacked]

. . . heh, so far. I'm glad for that.

[still, talking about the last Cry Wolf game has left him a bit tense]

[outstandingbalance]

I bet.

Was Coral hurt last time around?

[blackjacked]

[shakes his head]

Not physically. We were lucky.

[outstandingbalance]

That's something, at least.

How many of you played in that game?

[blackjacked]

Three of us. Shark and I-- [gesturing to Shark] -- were both in the last game. Dragonfly was, too.

[outstandingbalance]

Good to know.

You know, I'm not entirely sympathetic. I'm playing to win, and I'm enjoying the game, but I do see how playing for your life would undermine the charm.

[blackjacked]

[dryly]

Just a little.

It's true that this round is much more enjoyable, though.

[outstandingbalance]

I find it suits my skillset.

[blackjacked]

Does it? And what skill set would that be?

[outstandingbalance]

I'm a spy.

I haven't actually got the skills back that would be more useful right now, but can't have everything your way, right?
