Maeve sat down, and pulled out two decks of cards.

"Do you mind if I deal?" She said, as she poured champagne into two glasses that had been set out in the room.

"Feel free."

She set out two cards in front of him, and five face up in the middle.

Then she put in two silver coins.

"Alright, put in your ante."

he should put in his own 2 silver coins

She handed him a glass of champagne.

"I can't drink, I'm afraid."

He put in his coins. "Why the two glasses, then?"

"In case Cedric awakes. He wouldn't want to be left out of the fun."

"I suppose not." Envoy, however, did not yet have any of his drink.

"Oh please, the bottle was newly opened. I own no poison nor misintent."

Just now, The Aspiring Archivist said:

"It's not that. I'm just not much of a drinker."

"I apologize," she said, taking back the glass and putting it on the side table nearby.

"Draw a card," she said, pulling one of her own from the deck.

He nodded, and did so.

She glanced at him from different angles, a small smile on her face.

"Poker face, much?"

"I suppose my specific choices of attire might impede my expression."

"Perhaps. Well, here it goes," she put down two cards: a queen of spades and a king of diamonds.

If you want... How would you like it to go? Envoy could potentially do some trickery to improve his outcome :P

why not :P have him place down a queen of diamonds

A small smile slid across Mae's face. She set down her final two cards, a look of triumph burning in her eyes.

"So there we have it, don't we?" She raised an eyebrow, "Don't take it to heart, Envoy. I'm sure you'll do better in the games to come."

He placed a Queen of diamonds on the table.

Her eyes widened, almost naively.

"No but-"

She looked at the card.

"There wasn't- The deck had-"

She looked back up at him.

"Impossible."

But still, reluctantly she pushed the chips back over to his side of the table.

She stood up slowly.

"i seem to have gotten tired of poker, would you accompany me to the drawing room?"

"Certainly."

Mae carefully walked through the halls, heels tapping on the wood. However, she seemed to be going to the gardens, rather than the drawing room.

All she said was "I think I'd like some fresh air."

"Why not?" She held the door open for him. It was sinister and gloomy outside in the gardens.
