[Flame burst to life in front of the viewer's screen, his hands cupped together to house the matchstick's light. Touching it to the cigarette in his mouth, clear pleasure was in the sound of that smokey breath that drifted outwards from his lightly parted lips. The Noah couldn't be bothered by the fact he was smoking in a hospital. It was his first vice in days. The view pulled back when his hands did to reveal Tyki dressed in plain hospital white. He didn't have any injuries and the only part of his skin that really looked damaged was the scars that ran down his chest from his slightly opened shirt.]

The unsightly and unattractive faces of those taking care of the sick in this place is rather alarming but god like beggars can't be choosers. Then again, if anyone wants to prove me wrong, I wouldn't mind a pretty face right now. Now before you all go and get your knickers in a twist, I didn't come here willingly. Until my internal injuries clear up further, I'm stuck here.

[That trademark grin that widens pinches the cigarette against his teeth makes it clear he means every word.] Mm, but you know... I'd kill for some decent food or a game of poker right now.

Did someone say internal injuries?

[Henry focuses on what's most important.]

Keep up with that one track mind of yours and I might actually have to start worrying about you.

[In other words: Hello, Henry.]

Aw, that'd be sweet of you! But unfortunately, I'm fine. Got off pretty lightly!

Sooo- what kinda injuries are we talking about? Was there copious amounts of bleeding?

What's poker?

[Yes, she is serious.]

Screw whatever bolts you have in your brain back in first, alright?

I don't know if I want to spill my guts to you. Maybe with a little pleading?

You're serious?

[Double checking!]

I'll keep my head firmly attached, okay?

And sounds like your guts tried to spill themselves already~ But pleeeease!? I really wanna know!

Yes! Is it popular? [It must be if he's asking that.]

Good boy. Maybe you'll get a treat. Not from me but maybe someone.

[Tyki goes quiet as if deciding even if he's just extending the thought out to tease him.] They did. There was a lot of blood on my way here.

Poker is a card game. It's popular where I'm from.

Oh! So it's fun? How do you play it?

Sounds like you had fun! Did anything fall out? What happened?

[Practically on the edge of his seat here.]

What's poker?

[What’s pok-just kidding.]

Your preferences determine what you consider to be a “pretty” face. [Stated in a dry tone.] So you will need to be more specific.

Are you not being fed at the hospital? [Maybe he insulted the nurse because she was unattractive.]

It's true, pretty nurses can make getting injured a joy! I mean, from a certain standpoint. Those delicate hands, gently patting your sweaty brow... it's enough to make a man want to get sick.

But if they aren't pretty, that takes all the fun out of it.

Just my insides, boy. Drank something bad that cut up my insides into shreds. Despite not being attractive, a few of them could heal.

[Not that he would ever thank them. Now he gets to laze about in bed.]

I think so. It's not so easy to teach without actually showing someone but I can try just for you if you just want to talk. ♥

You use to live with that boy and you don't know what poker is? [His voice sounds skeptical and for good reason.]

You mean Allen. I never heard him speaking of it.

[ and he never played with Kaworu either SADNESS

he did hear about "playing cards", but not specifically poker ]

If you can't tell a pretty face by yourself then that's your problem. I'm a man of good taste. I'll know what I like when I see it. There isn't just one type of woman.

It's not very good.

Maybe. Maybe not. Except I don't need to get injured to get a pretty lady to look my way. It should be a perk either way for a sick man seeing as he's been spilling his guts all week.

Oh? He must have a deck somewhere.

[That's definitely a small smirk. Allen plays for keeps.]

A deck?

A pack of fifty-two cards bound by either a small box or a band.

So poker is a cards game.

is it difficult to learn?
