Plan Time: Pt 2

[crypddyd]

Everyone, I think it is time that we set our plans into motion. Please, gather at the Invidia mansion as soon as you are able.

[Though for how ominous that sounds, Lion himself isn't there? But there is a phone propped up on the table with a piece of paper under it: "turn me on~" If woken up, they will find that there's a facetime app running and Lion (and likely Ruin too) is on call. It's aimed at his shoulder rather than his face but he's trying!]

Ah- Sorry I can't join you all. Leaving this layer is a bit too much of a risk right now. But I believe last time we all gathered we largely agreed that attacking Greta's funds directly was our best course of action. Ruin has been working on earning a place at the- what was it called?

...

High Roller? Very Well. The High Roller tables- so if previous behavior is to be believed she should come to defend her title if he starts winning large amounts. I suggest we split into two teams- one team to cover and support Ruin as he does this. And one team to attack the bank. I... will not be able to join either side, as Greta may call me to her aid. So you may have to 'fight' me. If so, of course, I will throw any fight and look for a chance to aid you.

The question is this: who would like to do each role? We should likely nominate a leader for the bank team as well.

Thankfully, blackjack isn't you against other people, or at least, not in a way that requires bluffing. You can play it against the house just as well. It's--well, I'd say luck of the draw, but you can do the odds in your head, at least.

Yeah it's all just a matter of keeping track of what's come out of the deck and what hasn't, doing the odds in your head as you play. The better you are at quick math the easier it is to estimate what you're likely to get. And what your opponents are likely to do.

I dunno, though... you might be too young for them to let you play.

Hmm... well, they can't really prove I'm not an adult, can they? It's not like they've seen my medical records!

And I don't know exactly how old I am- judging by the proportions and bone structure, my guess is no older than seventeen and no younger than fourteen, but there's plenty of wiggle room in there! If I just make a very bad guess at how old I am, like twenty... that's not really lying, right? [She's wincing visibly at the thought of not giving a fully accurate report of her scientific observations of herself, but she soldiers on.] Sometimes people are wrong about things and that's not technically a lie. People can be wrong.
