[They are! At the casino!!!

Which means Rin has acquired a deck of cards from one of the tables and is shuffling it.]

Okay, we need a game to play. What card games do you all know? I can teach 'Bullshit' if you guys don't know the rules.

[He definitely picked that game in particular because swearing is involved.]

[supremity]

[ lounging, rolling one of the chips across his knuckles. ]

I own a gambling hall, hazard a guess.

[aono]

Do they play Bullshit at your gambling hall?

[supremity]

Not by that name. And people shout "bullshit" all the time in the Gambler's Den. What're the rules?

[aono]

It's easy: you get four people and you deal out all the cards evenly. Then you start with the person to the right of the dealer and they have to place all the Aces they have face down and say "two aces" or whatever they have. Then you keep going around in a circle from there. But everyone has to play at least one card each time they're up, they can't skip or anything. But they can lie! If you don't have any eights or something and you have to play eights, you can put down another card and say it's an eight and nobody'll know since they're being played face-down. You can even be sneaky and say "three eights" and actually play four cards too.

But if you think someone's lying about their cards, then you call 'bullshit'. You then flip over the top cards and see if they actually played what they said they played. If they lied, then the person who played the cards has to add the whole pile to their hand and the game keeps going. But if they told the truth, then the person who called 'bullshit' has to pick up all the cards and add them to their hands. And you keep going until someone has no cards in their hand, and that person is the winner.

[ At first he's like... Sure... Yeah, but then he kind of blanks out. ]

This weekly effect is a nuisance.

[aono]

Did you already forget the rules?

[supremity]

Not all here, huh.

[ he's being aloof about it but he hates it. ]

[supremity]

Ah. We call it "Liar." But it does frequently involve calling "bullshit," or claiming that the bluffing party is a motherfucker. They rarely actually shout "liar."

[aono]

[He snickers.]

Sounds about right, from what I remember.

[unbested]

[ i'm sorry to everyone that he is just going to be like, staying on the opposite side of the room from everyone else pretty much all night. IT WAS A BAD DAY. ]

[aono]

[Sebastian is valid and Rin will at least check on him and make sure he's alright over there.]

Hey, do you want anything over here? I can grab it for you.

[The casino is lorge and has plenty to use to make a makeshift bed or something.]

[afterword]

He's not very bright, is he?

[ he's gonna get killed by yjh, insulting him like this ]

[unbested]

[ he shakes his head. he brought a pillow and blanket, so that's good enough. ]

N-no, it's fine. I'm just... gonna go to sleep early, I think.

[aono]

[Boi u gonna die]

[aono]

Yeah, okay. You definitely need it, so...

[He really does look like he needs to rest. Rin really wants to know what happened to him, but he won't ask for now. Instead he'll sit down near Sebastian for the moment.]

Want me to stay over here until you fall asleep?

[They can hold hands even, Rin doesn't mind.]

[afterword]

[ nice. ]

[unbested]

I... if you want, I guess.

[malewife]

[ He looks at him but doesn't say anything.

Niah, though, comes over to sniff Sebastian and settle beside him? Like he's here to protect. ]

[malewife]

[ Pulls out his sword. ]

[malewife]

How are we supposed to go through trial like this.

[unbested]

[ ??? he recoils a little at first, because he really doesn't understand most of these animals or the people with them.

...but he... tentatively reaches out a hand to pet eventually, while glancing warily over at yjh, who he still fully believes might kill him one of these days. ]

[afterword]

[ laughing, like the fool he is. ]

Oh hello Joonghyuk-ie.

[aono]

[Sebastian...

Rin will reach out to pet Niah too.]

It's okay, Niah won't bite. And here-

[He will pick up Rinkou and put her on the other side of himself, where she is closer to Sebastian. Now he has two daemons to keep him warm and safe!]

[unbested]

Thanks...

[ he pets her too, but with that same bit of hesitation, like he's expecting her to want to pull away. ]

[malewife]

[ Attacks him, I guess. Draw your sword, binch. ]

[afterword]

[ STOP. well obv he defends himself with his sword, blocking his attack. ]
