A'liran's hand wasn't awful, but it wasn't great either. He kept his expressions under wraps as he examined his hand and the cards available on the table. Those weren't particularly good either, and R'nd and I'shan had already given up.
What else was there?
D'hys was like a fucking rock. No one was getting anything out of him. B'jin seemed thoughtful and controlled. A'liran was willing to bet he was bluffing, though. B'jin was too gentle and modest to want to lose in a game like this, and would probably bluff even when it would be better to fold.
A'liran decided to risk it. "I'll stick," he declared, grinning as he revealed his hand along with the others.
He scowled when he saw D'hys' hand. Fucker!
"Four of a kind my ass," A'liran grunted, tossing his cards at the fire lizards before sliding back in his seat. He didn't want to strip! Okay, maybe a little. He had no qualms about flaunting it for D'hys and most of the others fell firmly into a neutral category, but Z'ia could go blow himself. Unable to deny the rules, however, Ali was forced to relent.
He peeled his shirt off and sighed, then put it aside. "All right, blue. New hand?"
