I do try to keep myself busy, but I can only spend so many hours in the casino before it becomes obvious I'm counting cards. After that, I often find myself with free time.

It is difficult, yes. I am very used to being occupied for nearly every hour of the day. Coming here and finding myself with so little to do was an adjustment.

[chokuto]

I feel the same. And it's difficult to feel comfortable being trapped in one place, without freedom to go where you choose.

[Like being inside a very large cage.]

You should be careful cheating like that. What if you're caught?

[nonvoting]

I won't get caught.

But if I were, at my rank, I imagine I would be barred for a week or so and then allowed to re-enter with a very sincere promise that I won't do it again.

[chokuto]

That's true. They let the royal ranks do what they want.

How are you handling the attention so far?

[nonvoting]

I think I've adapted to it, to an extent. Over time I have managed to strike a balance between performing the way they expect a face card to perform, and taking advantage of the... fawning, for lack of a better term, to secure myself some privacy.

[chokuto]

I suppose it wouldn't be difficult to fawn over someone like you.

[??? flirting]

At least you're used to it now. There is power in that kind of prestige.

[nonvoting]

I don't know about all that, but I do prefer it when it comes from you.

[ flirting ??!!?? ]

It's true, there is. The access and resources that my rank has afforded me cannot be overstated. Looking back, it was quite a boon when I was beginning to map out this resort the first time.

[chokuto]

I'll keep that in mind.

I can imagine. Though I won't deny that I prefer moving around without anyone paying attention to me. I guess in that sense we've both made the best of our assignment.

I'll come see you tonight for dinner if you're available.

[nonvoting]

I am, and I would like that. Come up at your leisure.
