7th Hat Flip [Voice/Action]
[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.]

[what's a job...]
action!
action!
Well I always have fun most of the time, I don't know what you're talking about saying that you should have to do things that aren't fun at all.
action!
...Our worlds are different. Where I live, you gotta work so you can get food, a place to live, all that.
action!
[welcome to the real world crow, you gotta earn your keep more than just living off the land...]
action!
It's not all boring, dependin' on what you do. I like my job. Most people aren't as lucky.
action!
So what kinda "job" did you have?
action!
I'm a capo for the Martillo Family; I manage one of our casinos back home.
action!
[Yeah sorry we don't know what a "capo" or a "casino" and such is.]

Re: action!
[He just doesn't get what you're talking about Firo.]
action!
[Not so much in America, where Firo's Family is one of the few Camorra Families left.]
action!
And you're the "capo" or "captain" of this family or something?
action!
action!
action!
...The boss, the underboss, the secretary, and the accountant. They're the guys who do the most runnin' the whole thing.
action!
Uh-huh, right...so what do you people even do?
action!
Most of us just do one thing--like Randy and Pezzo do extortion. They're really good at it.
action!
[Don't know what that is either...then again is that something you want to be teaching Crow about though, Firo...]
action!
You've never heard of it? It's where you get money from people for protection.
[...Kinda.]
action!
[Well that doesn't sound like a bad thing...]
action!
action!
What about you? What do you do?
action!
Me? I manage one of our casinos. Keep the records, deal with any problems; stuff like that.
action!
What's a casino?
