Fortuna considers her next move...

{if@ Opponent's Pile = 5}Robin pushed the card forward where her opponent could see it, then opened her palm to prompt a reaction. "With that card, your total is-"

"Are you an idiot?" the opponent snapped back.

Robin wasn't used to being treated in such a blatantly rude way right out the gate, even by the opponents back at the Hard Luck. "Excuse me?"

"Do you honestly think I could lead the Soldiers of Fortune-- the world's most elite paramilitary ****-- without being able to count a couple of numbers? Or is that you believe I've never played cards before? You do realize that my duties include handling the math of our business affairs and finances? You're insulting me!" Fortuna's voice dripped with a surprising level of venom for such an insignificant perceived slight. "You're lucky I've committed to playing a sporting game, or I'd shoot you myself for such insolence."

"How rude! She's the one being insulting!" Coline protested, stomping her foot on Robin's shoulder with surprising ****. "This one deserves little mercy, in my humble opinion!"

"Ow! Then save your anger for her, not me!" Robin hissed telepathically, rubbing her shoulder. "Okay then! Let's see that hand."{elseif Opponent's Pile = 4}Fortuna watched Robin's face with malice evident in her eyes. "Think carefully before you announce a poor result here. I have been extraordinarily lenient with you so far, handling you with kid gloves, but my generosity could run out at any moment. Ask my women how merciful I tend to be towards those who show impudence," she growled.

"Really? I'm starting to wonder if your bark isn't bigger than your bite," Robin goaded her opponent, flipping the cards over to reveal the score.

Fortuna bit her blue-painted lip in anger. "Youuu... Your punishment is going to be unimaginably cruel, my new subordinate!"

"M-Maybe best not to tease her?" Colline promised.

"Nah. Tease her more!" Betty snickered.{elseif Opponent's Pile = 3} Fortuna's eyes swam back and forth, watching the card as Robin held it down against the table. When Robin let it linger there, refusing to flip it, she finally beat the table with her fists. "A-Are you trying to make a mockery of me, Red?! Reveal the bloody card already!" she demanded, pointing her curled whip in Robin's direction. "Do not make me say it with a firm lash!"

"I, for one, am really looking forward to winning that whip off of you. I think everyone's had quite enough of your firm lashes," Robin sighed, finally flipping the card.

"I wouldn't mind seeing what other parts of her are firm, though," Betty joked, making squeezing motions with her hands.

"Tis vulgar!" Colline reprimanded her ally. "Although... nay, I shan't say!"

"... It's okay to admit you want to see naked girls. Robin and I are both pretty open about that."{elseif Opponent's Pile = 2}Fortuna bit at her blue nails with a terrified look on her face. "Pleeeease please please please. Please tell me I didn't bust. Pleeeease don't let it be a bust!" she prayed, backing away from the card table like she was afraid of it.

"I'm starting to feel a little sorry for her," Colline sighed, pressing a hand to her cheek.

"Not me. When I start to feel bad, I just look at that big, whopping karmic number over her head and it doesn't feel so bad any more, heh heh heh. Or her tits. You tried looking at those?"

"N-Nay, I would never!"

Robin tried to drown out the sound of her bantering shoulder guardians and focus on her opponent instead. "Come on over, Boss! I promise, I don't bite, and neither do the cards," she joked, patting her hand gently on the table.

"Then why do I feel like I'm about to be slapped in the face?" Fortuna muttered, walking towards the table and peeking through a crack in her fingers.{elseif Opponent's Pile = 1}Still cradling her breasts with her hands, Fortuna watched the cards flip on the table with a look of terror plastered onto her face. "Robin Redd... I-If you give me a bust right now... I will never, ever forgive you! Never! I'll hunt you to the ends of the earth!" she warned, trying to get back some of her earlier ferocity, but just sounding pathetic in the process.

"I've been meaning to ask: those panties are kind of bold. Why leopard spots?" Robin questioned, feeling a little flirty. "You get a lot of action with the other soldiers?"

"Me?! No! They're leopard spotted because leopards are fierce, untamed creatures, just like a fearsome mercenary must be! It has nothing to do with wanting to get laid!" Fortuna protested, blushing furiously.

"... Really? Wait, are you a virgin?"

"Why does it matter?! Flip that last fucking card already, God!"{endif}
