"Not the only reason," Azulius admitted, staring closely at the cards. Based on the larger dent, the Queen was on his right, the dented Joker on the left, with the clean one in the middle.

"Actually, I'm here on behalf of my teammate.  She's always been a little insecure about her melee abilities, and someone knocking her through a window didn't help matters.  So I'm trying to get a proper story about what happened so I can train her accordingly, maybe prevent it from happening again.  Coming over to gaze at your beauty is just a side benefit."

With his classic I've already won smirk, he looked over the cards and stabbed his finger down on the middle card, pinning it to the table and preventing Penina from turning it before it was time. He slid it forward, then rested his other sleeve on the table over the other two, locking the cards in place until it was time.

"We never actually set a bet, I noticed.  What do you want to bet that this is the Queen?  I say if I'm right, you don't just leave Shani alone, but you help me teach her how to CQC properly.  Deal?"
