( two idiots walk into a bar -- or not. it's really just danny and han sitting together with a couple bottles of empty beers and a deck of cards between them. it seems kind of depressing, if you think about it.
danny is the first to wave at the camera, an amused smile on his lips. )
Well, this has been interesting, but I thing we need to change things up a bit.
( han looks at the camera and back at Danny, a wry expression on his face. )
We could be playing sabaac, but there isn't much to work with.
( but, han's a gambling man, even as he cuts the cards and deals between the two of them.)
These names are terrible for card suits, by the way.
( funny how danny knows what a sabaac is. fucking star wars comics, man, and fuck han solo for actually existing. )
I don't know, I think they're kind of appropriate. I mean - this is a heart, isn't it?
( he shows one of the cards in his hands - a three of hearts - before throwing it away and replacing it with another from the remaining deck. you would think that he'd try to be quiet about the cards he's been holding, but he doesn't seem too bothered. )
Not enough people if it's just the two of us.
( as if han has a clue. he deals it out, holding up the jack of spades: )
What the hell is a "Jack" supposed to be?
( and he sort of has a point. he throws it in, calling a bluff or something or the other, or maybe han just doesn't know what he's doing. it's hard to tell.)
I'd say we hold a poker night. Then they'd say that they're poker champions and that poker has no place on this ship. Or that poker ruins friendships and that we should be making friendships with cards.
( he might be projecting some bitterness. maybe.)
( danny just blinks at the jack of spades lost in the pile. man, what a waste. )
From what I remember? Someone just went and called it that for no reason. It's supposed to be 'Knave', but they confuse it with the 'King'. I could be wrong, though.
( he shrugs. people are dumb. )
Maybe if you ask nicely, they'll stop by. Maybe they'll even show you what they've got.
( the camera gets a shot of his nice smile from that. is he conning you? he's conning you. though, to be fair, he's more like challenging the audience to prove han wrong and prove him right. )
( don't pull that move on him, he invented that mood. han throws his cards down, face down. )
Oh, please join us for poker night. We'd love to have you. In fact, bring friends, bring beer and bring something we can play you under the table for.
( that was supposed to be sarcasm. but there is one thing that sarcasm cannot hide:)
We're at the bar, come find us. If you bring a Jedi, we'll take your money and then throw you out. If you are Jedi, you're not invited.
( and they're out. )
( OOC:there will be log for this. soon. hold the phone. THERE'S A LOG. )

"'There's no better rule.'" I agree.
What's that thing kids say these days? 'You only live once'.

[ moz still half expects neal to come along and tell him to stop his quote tirades but... neal still feels like he's long gone. which is why moz is here, looking for 'in's'. ]
I thought people'd been saying that for years! [ grumpy old man syndrome. ] Why is it that kids always think that just because they've said something means they've managed to reinvent it? But I think i've long since passed the raucous days of my youth-- onto bigger and better things.
voice
( hey buddy is danny in yet he wants in )
It's all a part of the learning process. Thinking that they rule the world until they come to realize that someone's already been there, done that, before they were even born. It's very humbling, in a way.
voice
[ OKAY FINE, maybe he's in. maybe. ]
It's all very humbling until they forget that it ever was and grow up. Then they find ways to prove that they're better than anyone else. Not that there's anything wrong with that, everyone wants to leave their stamp on the world. Even if nobody else happens to know what it means.
voice
No, there's nothing wrong with that. ( a beat. ) Until they start forgetting about the people around them. Having tunnel vision is more often than not deleterious.
voice
Really depends on which people though, doesn't it? Because when you stop having to beg, then you can choose who to kick back out of your inner circle.
