Nerreh nodded at Mylorah’s explanation. She was still a bit worried, but at least it wasn’t her actions that had made Madi leave. Nerreh just hadn’t wanted to strip, but wanted to play poker with her friends. She hadn’t meant to upset anyone! She just didn’t like being undressed in front of people. It was, in ways Nerreh didn’t really know how to describe, very uncomfortable. It’s not like she had anything to hide, but the idea of stripping in front of people made her skin crawl. Ugh. She just wanted to play poker, and the hilarity of other people stripping was great. No one even had to get naked, it was the potential for nudity that was most amusing. As long as it wasn’t hers.
“Here, I’ll refill your drink if you want.” Nerreh offered, looking around for one of the open bottles of alcohol she’d been gifted. The Benden from Casa was still in her lap, and Nerreh had no plans of opening it tonight. That bottle was gonna be saved for a special occasion. There were plenty of others though, a pretty good wine, and some sort of mead type thing that was tasty. She pointed both out to Mylorah, letting her know she could have some of either. Or both, whatever. Could even mix them for all Nerreh cared.
When Mylorah started calling out to Kordiavis to join them, Nerreh nodded encouragingly. “Yeah, no stripping if you don’t want to! It’s just an excuse for all these exhibitionists to show off and pretend they were forced into it.” She said, grinning at all the people who had chosen to strip. “I’m just here to remember how bad at cards I am. Sorry, Mylorah.” She added with a wink. It wasn’t even a lie. Even with Misharan and his weird love of card games as a friend Nerreh was still pretty shit at poker. She swore it was just bad luck when it came to cards — she never got good hands — and her poker face wasn’t actually that bad, there was always just someone who knew her too well or someone a lot better at it.
