'Kay~. ♥

*shuffles deck, begins dealing*

Alright, the ante's in the pot. What's your bet?

Uhm.. [Just puts what seems to be a wad of cash. Xig said to use it for emergency cases! ] That! I forgot how much that is.

Oh - oh my. Are you sure you want to bet that much on the first hand? I play for keeps, you know. And if you lose, you lose your money and some clothing.

.... [ Takes back everything first, then puts down 2000 munny. ] Fixed!

Ah, that's better. We can get dangerous later. ;D

*looks at hand*

I see your two and raise you another two.

[ She does this and that. Gets a card. Forgive the mun! ]

There.

[ He looks at his cards, smirks, and lays them down. No prob, just wing it~ ]

Alright, I'll see your bet. Two pair, jacks and kings with ace high. Lay down your five and show me what you've got. ;)

[ She kept quiet and looked at what he placed down. She just smiled. ]

Looks like we have a tie, I think.

[ In her hand, as she puts hers down: A pair of tens, a pair of eights, and a three. ]

.. But then you have kings and jacks.

[ He smiles wickedly. ]

Unfortunately, my dear, it seems I have won this round.

[ He pulls the cash toward him. ]

Now which item of clothing shall it be? And the hair ribbon, however cute it might be, doesn't count. Come now, no need to be shy. ;)

.. Mmm, okay.

[ Pulls out the ribbon, and fwush went her hair! Not too much drama-esque, though. ]

Next~!

Thwarted! You've seen right through me! I'll let you go this time, but the next round shall not be so easy.

[ Deals. ]

Place your bet. This time the stakes shall be higher. Loser forfeits money, one article of clothing, and they must also... also... sing a silly song confessing their love for a vegetable.

.. Can it be a tomato? [ Card switching and such! ]

Yes, tomatoes are a very noble vegetable! - or fruit. I think it's a rather fruity vegetable? Fruity but noble.

[ He puts down cards face up ] Straight! And -

[ A couple of cards fall out of his sleeve ]

Ah - haha, now how did those get there? Haha. Ha.

.... You know, I was always told that cheating was good in card games.

[ Pause & a small irritated look. ] But not when you get caught!

[ Ponder ponder. She really isn't that angry, really. Just.. NICE GOING, SETZER moment. ]

It's not really cheating... it's more like... creative playing. :D

I usually don't fumble like this, truly I don't, but your presence has dazzled me so that I cannot properly execute my usual tricks.

...Not that I usually cheat. Of course not.

.. [ Giggles. ]

~~Very creative indeed~.~~ Mmmm, fine, fine. I'll let you go from that.

You are a very gracious lady. Now, where were we?

[Dealing is done, bets are made ]

Show me your hand; I look forward to hearing your angelic voice praise the many virtues of tomatoes. ;D

[ Puts her cards down: Three 8's, one Ace and a seven. ]

Three of a kind!

[ Looks at cards in shock ]

It - it seems that you've won this hand. I've only a pair.

Oh dear. Singing isn't exactly my strong suit.

[ Obliging, removes his jacket and drapes it over his chair ]

Oh well, I have plenty of other clothing left for you to remove. ;)

I have.. a few, yeah.

[ Smiles, and then claps. ]

Sing me a song for tomatoes, Setzer~.

Alright, here goes then ~

*sings*

Tomatoes, tomatoes, lovely and round
ripe, delicious and sweet
Voluptuous and red, only, I have found
A dilemma: to kiss or to eat?

... That sounded nice~. ♥ [ Smiles, and then claps a second time. ]

Nice description, I might add.

Tomatoes inspire the poet in me, what can I say? Their rotund beauty is almost as inspirational as your own.

...Not to say that you're rotund. Anything but. ;)

You're just flattering now~! [ Giggles. ]

But thank you. ♥
