Kijani gigIled. Connor, do you even realize what you're saying? 'Besides your brain'? 'Among other geniuses'? Your mind is the most powerful, wonderful part of you. You're selling yourself way too short. We have got to work on your confidence. You have all the cards, we just have to teach you how to play." She grinned at him. "As for why I'm helping you?" She stopped to think about it. "...well, when I figure it out, I'll let you know."

"The problem with card games is I play them safe" Connor said, just like with everthing else. Was he tired of that? He didn't know. All he k ew at the moment was he was dancing with a girl, and didn't appear to be making a fool of himself. Maybe the time for playing it safe was over.

"Confidence. Always been an issue with me there. Mostly" there were times he knew he could be extremely confident. They just didn't happen often. But he liked the way she said 'we'. So he smiled, and said, "you are welcome to try and help though"

"And sometimes figuring something out, Its the simplest, most obvious answer. But take your time" he smiled again

Zack smiled shyly at the girl at the table. It wasn't the first time he had been caught talking to Griffin out loud and he was sure it wouldn't be the last. Zack helped himself to some of the punch and a few crackers. "Are you enjoying the evening?"
