Hey, listen up. I’ve got an idea.

[Evidently a very important one, judging by how soberly he’s speaking.]

Obviously we need things to do in between gettin’ set on fire and havin’ our heads messed with. So I was gonna set up a card table in the bar—could be poker, faro, anything if we can get enough players for it. If people like it, we could make it a regular thing.

If you don’t know how to play, I’ll teach you. And if anybody knows any other games, I’d like to see ‘em.

I used to work with children. There isn't much of a difference with drinking adults playing games.

[His voice sounds a lot nicer than the comment which makes it oddly inoffensive.]

If you need any more help with planning, let me know.

[It sounds so nice that even Firo’s incredibly thin skin takes a moment to register what he just said. The actual assessment itself he probably couldn’t disagree with if he really thought about—people are a pain. But with himself possibly lumped in there with the adult children? Rude.]

Hey, are you callin’ this kid stuff?!

[stepford_smiler]

No. I think it's going to be a nice break from everything that's happened here so far. Thank you for holding it.

[Hakkai is too cunning for his own good.]

[Now he’s just confused. Firo’s used to searching for the insult in anything, but gangsters usually make it easy.]

…Are you makin’ fun of me?

[stepford_smiler]

Hm? No.

I look forward to the poker game! Please take care in the meantime.

[He hangs up.]
