Jasper + Emerald

Through the doors, you find yourselves in a small circular room that seems to be decorated much in the same way as the ring is decorated today. The curtains are in alternating colors of your teams, and in the center stand are three surprisingly lifelike, but faceless sculptures. They stand with their backs to one another, facing out to the chairs. About each of their necks is a cord that holds a sign written in a fine, looping cursive.

[snorts]

I couldn't care less about that. I have no interest in playing judge and jury.

I don't think anyone is. I'd offer a game of cards to pass the time instead, but ... [tugging a little on his sign :'D]

Yes, probably best not to dig the hole deeper.

Be more fun, though.

[almost amused]

I don't think this Persona is one for 'fun.'

S'too bad. She'd probably be less of a pain in the arse if she was.

[--okay, that gets a little laugh]

Probably, yes.

Maybe after this game I'll just corrupt your teams to my wicked ways instead.

Or perhaps after the lecture you'll realize the folly of your wicked ways.

But unless my life circumstances change, I'll never learn for real.

Life circumstances . . . ?

Why does anyone turn to gambling in the first place?

I presume there are a lot of reasons.

In my experience it's always been about the money.

You don't think people enjoy risk for risk's sake sometimes?

There are better ways of doing that then just playing cards.

[shrugs

not too talkative today]

[I guess this is where I am getting lectured anyway]

[have fun with that I guess . . . .]

[I am being Extremely Sincere about my repenting too]
