Yea, you’ve lost enough money for one thread, thanks!
“N-no we haven’t!” Stammers TT, rattling her cage as a look of unadulterated <span class="mu-i">DESPAIR</span> forms on her sweat-slaked face! “No! <span class="mu-s">NOOOOOOO!!!!!!</span>”
Wait, since when was she able to <span class="mu-i">sweat</span>?
Leaving the Teksoul Croupier with a quick ‘<span class="mu-i">thanks</span>’, you turn around and immediately bump into a trio of Mzz’goe’virr with eighteen eyes between them that have clearly seen some messed-up stuff!
You’ll never guess what they smell like, either…
“Pardon us, boss.” Grunts the one in the middle as his pals give you and Volka a once-over, “Crowded in here.”
Yea, you reply with a wary nod, no trouble at all… Balling your fists up at your sides, you can’t help but feel a little relieved when the wall of wiseguys opens up to let you pass! Phew…
“G-good luck!” Volka adds, forcing a smile on her face as the Mzz’goe’virr mobsters take your place! “<span class="mu-i">Take all the time ya’ like, boys…</span>”
Exchanging a glance, the two of you waste no time in power-walking <span class="mu-i">FAR</span> away from the casino tables… well, as far as you can in a train car, at least! Thankfully you manage to find shelter in a crowd clustered around the band playing the music that was piped into your cabin earlier… at the very least it might let you blend in a bit!
Or at least calm TT down, the poor thing.
“<span class="mu-i">W-we were gonna…</span>” She sobs with all the decorum of a kid that just lost a Little League Game, “<span class="mu-i">We were gonna… w-w-win….</span>”
“D’aww, don’t cry, sweetheart,” Volka smiles as she lifts the cage up to her eye level, “There’s always next time, yea?”
Yea, you uh… you don’t think there <span class="mu-i">SHOULD</span> be a next time, you murmur, prompting your gal pal to give you what might be the meanest glare she’s ever made!
