Calypso's Casino! [FULL; PM if you want in]

[Marky]

Having a glimmer in his eyes, but otherwise keeping his poker face on, G looks around at everyone else, wondering whose turn it is to bet once again.

[CalypsoNymph]

The bets go around, and most of them call it, all of them eyeing everybody suspiciously... until one guy, towards the end, raises it to $35, and it's back to Chris.

[Marky]

Chris hms for a moment, eying the one who raised it to $35, before making it seem like he was a bit unsure, almost on purpose, before raising to $35, as well.

[CalypsoNymph]

One person folds... the most confident looking one, ironically... before the cat girl dealer places down the first three cards... which are... a ten and a king of Diamonds, the suite of one of his aces, and the four of hearts. It's Chris's turn to bet!

[Harri-chan]

Elliot made his way into the casino. He was dressed in a red t-shirt, knee length denim shorts, and red canvas sneakers with white toecaps, while his blonde hair was loose, hanging just beyond his shoulders. Looking around, he nodded to himself with a smile, and walked up to the row of machines, and started inserting coins.

Seeing the small card pop out, be bent down to pick it up, "Cool", he laughed to himself. Now, Elliot didn't know very much about casino games, but he did know he wanted to share some company rather than sit at a machine, so he began to wander, looking for a table that had a female dealer, which didn't seem like it would be too hard.

Near the front door of the casino a tall, black top hat seems to appear by way of being inside-out and becoming inside-in. Then a hand somehow reaches out from the hat and back into it, and pulls an entire human being out, the owner of the hand. He deposits himself next to the hat, bends over to pick it up, and places it neatly on his head before dusting off a bit. He is in the garb of a stereotypical stage magician: Fancy tuxedo, bow-tie, and all, with the top hat completing the ensemble. Turning to the bouncer as the nearest representative of the establishment, he bows politely and tips his hat to her. "Greetings! I am Sarizini, interdimensional magician extraordinaire. I couldn't help but notice this fine establishment and wonder if it could make use of my prodigious prestidigitation for some night's entertainment. Do you know if the owners here might be interested in my services?"

((Yes and no will both lead to him entering, so no worries. Would prefer this not be a total personality loss if possible.))

Seeing the flop, G begins to think long and hard. He has a draw for a possible royal flush, but, to get it, he's going to need some real good luck for the same suited Jack and Queen to get laid down. And since he didn't hit any other ace, he's a bit unsure of what to do. Sure, the best someone could have right now would be three kings, but, if he just gets once Ace, that can easily be overcome. Thinking this through, he decides to bet the minimum, instead of checking.

-----Harri-chan

Actually... pretty much EVERY dealer seems to be female! There actually doesn't seem to be a single male worker in the bunch... all the men seem to be customers. Huh.

However, if he takes a moment or two longer to look, he finds a lonely looking bunny girl at a black jack table... it probably has something to do with the sign that says 'for special bets', but who really knows?


----Whatevr89532

The bunny girl bouncer takes a moment to look at the magician, blinkblinking. One moment... two moments... "That was awesome!" She squeels, bouncing up and down a bit, claping her hands. "I'm sure Calypso would like to see your work! Just go inside, take a right, and walk on through the wall, okays? She'll see you there!"


-----Marky

Again, Chris feels that surge of 'wrongness' welling up inside of him... this is his chance to make it BIG! He doesn't have time for timidness! It leaves just a bit later... but the feelings still echo inside his head. He's feeling lucky, he could get a Royal Flush... what's he doing betting some small time cash?

As for the rest of them, a lot of them seem to check the bet... but one of them raises it up to a bet of $45. Not the same one that raised it before... but he seems rather confident. Though... Chris can almost... feel, deep in his gut, that this man's bluffing. There isn't any kind of visual clue... but he knows it.

[Harri-chan]

Spotting the lonely bunny girl, Elliot headed straight over there. Proudly presenting the payment card, he took a seat at her table. "Hey", he introduced himself with a smile. Already he was struggling to look into her eyes rather than at her chest. "I'm Elliot".

Pausing for a moment, Chris G feels the emotions inside of him, trying to push them away a bit as he begins to think it over. Sure, the man could be bluffing, but, oh, what the hell. After a few moments of indecision, G calls the man's raise of 45.

[Whatevr89532]

"Most excellent, madame," he says. "And thank you." He heads in, apparently not the least bit bothered by the instruction to walk through a wall, and begins following the bouncer's directions, taking a look at the casino interior as he goes.

"Oh!" The bunny girl blinks, and straitens up. "Hiya, cutie! I'm Jam- I'm Jane! What would you like to bet with~?" She smiles brightly, her breasts jiggeling a bit. Elliot finds the whole display rather... distracting. More so then usual. She's increadibly sexy...


-----Marky

This time, two more of the betters fold... and Chris is feeling like he's ridding high in the sky when out comes a Queen of Diamonds! He could almost have a royal flush, and deep in his bones he can just feel it waiting for him!


-----Whatever

Sarizini finds that the entire Casino is in a kind of purple motif... it's rather nice, actually; kinda classy, yet the splashes of color still make it 'fun'. He walks through the wall, which appears to have been made out of smoke, into a room that's... well, this one is entirely purple. After he takes a few steps in, he hears a voice behind him saying, calmly, "Ah, Mr. Sarizini... please, take a seat."

If he turns around, he finds what appears to be a... purple woman... or demon... standing between him and the wall he walked through. She's rather daringly dressed, showing lots of skin and lots of her impressive clevage; she has four, large, bat-like wings spread out behind her, a tail with a heart shaped tip, and two impressive, intimidating horns.

...depending on Sarizini's interdimensional lore, he would probably know that this is a Succubus. To be more exact... she's an Arch Succubus, a Succubus '2.0', if you will... but the exact details of an Arch Succubus's powers are rather hard to come across, just that they don't actually absorb male life force like their lesser 'sisteren'.

[Harri-chan]

Setting the card down on the table, he slid it toward the big-chested girl, now blushing a little, and swallowed a deep breath. "I can use this, right?", he asked, drawing his hand back to rub at the back of his head. He chewed his bottom lip, utterly failing to avoid staring at the girl's breasts.

[Whatevr89532]

Sarizini does turn around and take a look at the woman--brief enough to be tactful and polite, of course--and then he calmly takes a seat at the nearest chair or chair-like furniture. Considering that many realms have demons based on vices who want to make relatively honest livings, and perhaps no better way to do that than running or working a casino, dealing with demons and being culturally sensitive towards them has become quite the necessary part of his job. He doesn't bother to keep up with all the details and powers and whatnot, just tries to stay on the good side of clearly powerful ones. Like this one. So he doesn't say anything for now, allowing her to speak first as a gesture of deference.

This time, Chris G's poker face almost slips up, but he just shakes his head for a moment and regains his composure. He begins to mull over the decision for a little bit, noticing the feeling inside of him. He has the hugest draw in the world. He could have a royal flush if only the Jack of Diamonds was next to come out. Feeling, once again, that the best anyone could have is a possible flush of diamonds, and barring that, only three of a kind, he's got a few outs, just in case it isn't the Jack! And so, Chris instantly jumps in with a bet of $100. It's go big or go home time.
