Ivory didn't comment on anything Geralt said. It wasn't surprising that he had noticed her slight irritation, though she doubted he would have known the reason behind it at the time. She glanced down at the table as he turned his cards, before she moved her cards toward the center of the table and flipped them as well. The same card defined both of what could have been either of their victories, but Ivory's suit was higher, granting her the win. Still, she couldn't help but feel irritated that it was the Ace of Spades that had given it to her.

[color=#a7d3d4]"Beeindruckend."[/color] Aurel said, eyes shooting from Geralt to Ivory as the cards were set down. This round had been an extremely close call, just the fact that an Ace had showed up in both of their hands was pretty amazing on it's own. Glancing at Ivory's, he could remember that it was the card she had said she had found on her person after they had seen Geralt. Now it made sense as to why she had seemed annoyed, even though the card itself was good. It made sense why [i]that[/i] of all things could betray her composure. If it hadn't been for that, Aurel might have assumed that the dhampir had been trying to trick him.

[color=darkgray]"Better luck next time." [/color]She said simply.

[color=#a7d3d4]"You're definitely a lot better at this than I am."[/color] The man commented. Even though the Ace he held was really good, he had never once let it show in his expression. If Aurel hadn't seen the card for himself, he would have never suspected it.

Lucien looked curiously down at Illy as she refused to speak until they had finally arrived, but he decided not to ask as they continued on. She hadn't wasted any time once they were inside. He raised his eyebrows slightly as she spoke, surely hoping that this wasn't the reason why she had been staying up. Knowing her though, it was probably exactly why.

[color=burlywood]"Well, what did you see?"[/color] He asked.
