[Voice]

[After having a close friend return home a few weeks ago, Firo's been largely keeping to himself. He was aware of the danger of losing friends in Luceti, but it always seemed abstract and alien until it actually happened.

It's boredom that finally prompts him to address the network. That and the concern that if he doesn't keep using his skills he'll be near useless when he gets back home. Why not kill two birds with one stone?]

Does anybody here wanna play cards? Any kinda game is fine, or even if you just wanna learn. Most of 'em aren't that hard to pick up and I don't mind teachin' anyone.

[His tone suddenly becomes less light and takes a turn for the grouchier.]

But if you're gonna cheat, save it. I'll know.

[He wasn't put in charge of a Family casino for nothing.]

[Action]

[Soon after he makes his message, Firo will be rummaging through the item shop for a few packs of cards, carefully going through each one he finds to make sure they're complete. Then he'll linger a little while by the art supplies to pick up some markers.

...No, he is not going to be using them to mark the cards.]

Great!

Yeah, this place is short on entertainment, isn't it? For us, at least.

[He's sure the Malnosso get a kick out of the experiments.]

Certainly seems that way, but I just showed up. Maybe I'll find some entertainment later on - we'll see how it goes!

What, are you supposed to be somebody special?

[How could one person make Luceti more interesting?

...Firo probably doesn't want the answer to that.]

I'd like to think so, but that's not what I meant. I haven't been through one of those experiments yet, for example - I'm sure those would be good for some laughs!

What? Trust me, pal, the experiments aren't good for anything. They're annoyin' at best.

That might be what you think, but I'd prefer to see that for myself. I always try to keep up a positive attitude, so I'm sure I'll find something good about it!

That's a pretty weird way of lookin' at it. I think you'd hafta be crazy to find much good about what goes on here. Gettin' your head messed with isn't fun.
