I am able to provide clothing, of course.

[he lays down four cards on the table. a king, a queen, a jack, and a joker.]

[psychebubble]

What kind of clothing? I want something pretty, not to win and then end up with Leia's bikini or something.

[EYEING THESE CARDS... :|a]

[fullhoused]

Oh, these are your choices. Clothes fit for a King, a Queen, a Jack, or a Joker.

[psychebubble]

I pick queen, then, obviously.

[fullhoused]

Just to clarify-- what you want is different from our beautiful redhead over there, yes?

[psychebubble]

Yeah, she has a whole list of stuff, I'm just here for clothes.

[fullhoused]

Then what you may do may be easier than your friend.

[psychebubble]

Sounds good to me. What is it?

[fullhoused]

A game called Liar's Dice.

[psychebubble]

Never heard of it!

[fullhoused]

[he pulls out two coloured cups from underneath the table, and five pairs of dice. each pair coloured differently.]

We put our dice in the cup and shake it, roll it, and slam it down on the table. Once that's done, we take a peek at our own dice.

At this point, the game becomes like poker. There are combinations, et cetera, et cetera. We each take turns to guess what kind of combinations-- or what numbers there are on your. . . "hand", per se.

Am I making sense so far?

[psychebubble]

I think so.

[fullhoused]

[pushes a cup and five dice to her]

This is also a game of bluff, by the way.

[psychebubble]

Of course it is. Dealers are really unfair, huh?

[fullhoused]

How is this unfair?

[putting his dice in the cup and shaking it already]

[psychebubble]

We're both professional liars, but only one of us has had all of our skills stripped away.

[DOING THE SAME, THOUGH.]

[fullhoused]

The point is, of course, that this is supposed to be a challenge for you.

[slams his cup on the table and takes a peek at his dice. then he smiles.]

[psychebubble]

Of course. I'll win anyway.

[PEEKING UNDER AS WELL... though since you never explained what the hands are, she has no real reaction one way or the other.]

[fullhoused]

Why don't I start first...

[takes a peek under his cup again, then looks at Paru] Hmm. . . there's a four under that cup.

[psychebubble]

Hm... Under yours as well, I think.

[fullhoused]

Would you like to test that now?

[psychebubble]

Why not?

[fullhoused]

Because you would definitely lose your chance for a new dress.

[psychebubble]

Really? You know, not to brag, but I'm pretty smart. I figured out the best strategy for this game right away.

[fullhoused]

Go on.
