A little...

[oh. ...huh. he leans back.]

Did I do it? Is this how the game ends?

[payback]

[She makes a tiny face. Why would anyone think she was scary? No entiende...]

You did it. You won. That's it.

[birdsbirdsbirds]

Hey, nice! [all right! he grins. forget everything he was just saying--holds his hand up for a high-five!]

[payback]

[She looks at him, mouth and eyes softening with amusement, raises her hand and give him a high five as bid.]

You understand the game now?

[birdsbirdsbirds]

Yeah, I think so. Seems easy enough.

[stretching and leaning back...]

Not a bad way to pass time.

[payback]

Yeah...

[She starts patting the cards back into one deck again.]

I lived in a boarding house in the Port for a while. That's where I learned all these. We played all kinds of games there.

[birdsbirdsbirds]

Not bad. [he just. watches her.] Show me another one sometimes?

[payback]

Sure... we can teach Nel or something.

[She smiles a little. Ah, memories...]

Most of them are the most fun with at least three people.

[birdsbirdsbirds]

Good. The more the merrier...

[he smiles at her for... just a moment longer than he needs to, before he remembers something--]

Oh, hey, I was going to ask you about those tallbirds!

[payback]

Yeah?

[Doop doop the cards are collected and slid back into their box. Game all gone. She taps the box and then closes it, blinking at him.]

What about them?

[birdsbirdsbirds]

Have you seen them yet? [this face.] Aren't they ridiculous?
