“Yeah, sure, here.” Nerreh said, pouring some of the opened wine into the glass Casa held out to her. She splashed a little into Mylorah’s cup without waiting for confirmation from the girl herself. Nerreh highly doubted Mylo would have said no to more alcohol, and if she didn’t actually want it she could easily pawn her cup off on someone else.
She laughed openly at Kordiavis and Casa’s exchange. They were having fun! This was what she had wanted from the evening! Also the gifts were nice, but you know. Priorities. People being uncomfortable was not they goal at all, so seeing everyone smiling, teasing, and getting along made Nerreh feel a lot better about everything. She had to clap for Casa’s response to Kordi, both highly amused and wanting to encourage continued levity.
R’dal’s appearance was another boost in the mood of the party, and Nerreh hugged him back gratefully. “You came!” She said, glad another of her childhood friends had stopped by. Sure, the Searched Candidates were fine, and some of them were a lot of fun, but there was something special about hanging out with all her childhood playmates from Katila. Which was kind of why Nerreh was a little peeved about the bronzeriders not showing up, cause yeah, they weren’t real close or anything but they had grown up together. Still, whatever.
“Yeah, you should play, keep Misha from cheating or something.” She said, nodding along with the suggestion that R’dal should join the game and smirking at Misharan who had the cheek to look offended at her statement. Honestly, he’d tried teaching her card tricks, and even though she was terrible at them he wasn’t. Which meant he was definitely capable of cheating if he felt like it, even though Nerreh didn’t really care if he did. As she’s said before, strip poker was just an excuse for people to get naked. And popular opinion seemed to be that Misha needed to be doing less of the poker and more of the stripping. Him cheating would not increase the amount of stripping, so it must be prevented. Her thoughts were interrupted by the current round ending and Nerreh sighed dramatically.
“Sorry, Mylo. There goes your other boot.”
