mess hall

[painintheneck]

[she comes waltzing in, carrying a box under one arm]

Everyone, I brought Yahtzee!

[ridestherider]

You'd probably have to teach me. I don't think it's very popular where I come from.

[painintheneck]

[she begins to explain the rules while she sets everything up]

It's based purely on luck.

[ridestherider]

[Looking at the little scorepad.] In that case, you'll probably win.

But I'll try anything once.

[painintheneck]

You don't think you're lucky?

[ridestherider]

[Smiles, a little.] Not lately, no.

But then again, who ever heard of anybody brave enough to beat a queen at a board game on their first try?

[painintheneck]

What a good point.

[ridestherider]

I'll still play with you, though, if you want.

[painintheneck]

Oh, this will be fun. Would you like to start?

[ridestherider]

Mm. Just roll all of the dice, right?

[Picking them up to put in the cup.]

[painintheneck]

That's right.

[she gives a quick overview of the basic rules! :I]

[ridestherider]

[Hey, she's Japanese. Everything happens on mobile phones where she's from. But she follows the instructions to the letter!]

That's not so hard.

[painintheneck]

That's why I enjoy it so much. It's uncomplicated and and doesn't rely on skill, like so many things in this world do.

[ridestherider]

That's a really nice way to think of it, actually.

You play a lot of these kinds of games?

[painintheneck]

I do! At home I enjoyed playing with my members of court in the day room.
