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.]

[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!
...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?
action!
action!
action!
action!
Do they have one of those here to play with?
action!
[And now he feels stupid for not doing so. He knows enough about the slots to know not to play them, but it'd be a touch of home.]
Stranger things have shown up here. I'll go look around sometime and if I find one, I'll show you.
action!
[But god help him to remember to actually let you know right away if we actually found one here...]
action!
It'd be nice if we could actually set up a casino or somethin' here. Not for profit or anything, just for fun.
action!
[Even if your job in particular isn't actually that boring as far as we can tell.]
