Who: Rean, Crow, and Randy
When: day 28
Where: the garden

[Rean's been passed out since princess maker, so a good 40 hours at least. When he wakes up... well he's immortal but here's never been in a position where there's no ambient mana he can use to even function basically. He feels fuzzy and almost like he's sick for over an hour, and he runs into more than one wall and that's all so absolutely unreal to him he finally texts Randy and Crow a simple word Garden. It takes him three tries to spell it right before hitting send.

And he'll be there next to a chalk circle full of symbols.]

[ There's an flustered doki there, Crow's pleased but embarrassed at the same time. ]

Yeah yeah, same to you. Now get ready to get your ass kicked. I'm not going easy on you.

[Cute.]

We'll see about that.

[ Wow not cute?? ]

I'm looking forward to it.

[ Prepare to get your ass kicked, Schwarzer. ]

So am I.

[He'll give as good as he gets.]

[ So it'll be a fairly even number of wins versus losses, but Crow enjoys every minute of it. ]

[Rean's having a good time and seems, well, energetic. At least the distraction is enough to keep his mind occupied from thinking about Randy and Rufus for now.]

[ In the end, that was the real goal-- though playing cards is obviously fun on its own, too. ]

[Eventually he sets down his cards and stretches, flopping over.]

[ Crow shuffles his deck one last time before putting them away. ]

I should probably buy a Blade deck to change things up a bit. Not that poker isn't fun, but...

Blade would be a lot of fun too.

Next time for sure, then.

[ He flops down as well, stretching out comfortably. ]

Mm.

[Turning to prop his chin on his hand and look at Crow.]

I look forward to it.

You'd better be.

[ Maybe he should buy several decks, try and make sure they get distributed throughout the train. It'd be fun if he could get more people into Blade--

It's a thought for later, maybe. ]

You should probably stay the night here. Go back to your cabin tomorrow or whatever, but it'd be easier for now.

Mm. Maybe that might make Rufus feel better but I'm still worried about Randy.

It's always hard to decide how much space to give people before trying to resolve things. Since it was my fault in the first place I don't want to give the impression I'm avoiding him.

You don't strike me as the kind of guy who avoids his problems, and if I'm right on that I'd bet they both know it. Go see Randy first thing tomorrow, have whatever talk you need to have with him.

.... Yeah. That might be best.

[ He reaches over and ruffles Rean's hair. ]

Of course it is, it's my advice.

[ It's teasing and although he does think it's good advice, he's not serious about that either. ]

Mmngh.

[ Crow glances over at Rean. Howwwwww do you deal with sad people? He's pretty sure that, unfortunately, distracting him with sex is off the table. It's a pity, it'd be a lot of fun. But Rean sounded like he was the kind of guy to take things slow the last time it came up.

He considers what he's going to do for a long moment before he rolls over really close and flops an arm over Rean. There. ]
