It's been made clear that I'm not the only one who enjoys a good game here. Tell me, darlings, what sorts of games do you play best?

[ What sorts of games she's even talking about is questionable. Political games? Board games? Video games? She won't specify but she will take all answers. After all, it's good to find out just what sorts of things people are up to.

What sorts of games she prefers are clearly the ones she wins, if the fact that she's dressed in a bathing suit and appears to be leaning over the edge of a.. jacuzzi... with a glass of wine set next to it... has anything to say about that... ]

Are you implying you play games in that jacuzzi, your majesty?

The stitching on that bathing suit are horrible, shit.

[ RUDE ]

Well I can hardly get my own tailor here. I have to make do with what I can buy here.

[tatsumisicle]

Keh- just gotta ask the right people! I'll do it for ya.

[amberalert]

Where are you?

[impureheart]

In my cell, darling~

[ Yes her cell. ]

[amberalert]

That's a cell? What game did you play to get that?

[ The video comes in at a weird angle, just barely catching the face of a man in his mid-twenties with possibly the most disgusted expression fathomable. He was staring rather intensely at the video feed, his eyebrow quivering ever so slightly.

What he was seeing had to be a dream. Not even a dream -- a nightmare straight out of the pits of the underworld. What he was seeing could not be possible. It just couldn't be. It just wasn't. It was merely someone that looked like her. That was all. Just some woman who liked red and thought herself a Queen and -- that voice.

Ana's voice. ]

Bloody. Hell.

[ If he'd just replied like a normal human being, perhaps she wouldn't have needed to be snide with him. If he hadn't been such a fool and turned himself in to avoid getting a far easier punishment from the Caterpillar then she wouldn't have to feel such irritation at him to spur it on. If she didn't have such a damnable sense of pride, it probably would've helped.

She expected him to text since Will willingly talking to her? Probably not. It was clearly an accident, which meant she could taunt him. Even if there was something audibly different in her tone than when she spoke to the others. It wasn't anger or playfulness, it was an attempt at taunting while she wanted so badly for him to just stop this nonsense. ]

You've got a lot of nerve showing your face around here, darling~

[FOREVER TEXT]

[knaving]

[ It took him several frantic seconds of searching, but Will managed to find a way to turn the video off. She was right: had he not been such a bloody idiot he wouldn't have made any comment to her at all. ]

Looks like it's your lucky day Ana. Now ya never have to see it again.

I've been known to enjoy a few riddles here and there.

[Dear lord. He's not very interested in such things but.. who spends CP on such things? Does that mean he could--get a bath with rose petals? No. He must remained focused.]

[video]

[impureheart]

Tell me your favorite, darling.

[ Ana certainly didn't spend CP on anything but the bathing suit. The rest of it.. well, that's another matter entirely. One that Georik may not have available to him. ]

[video]

[faustianpact]

Very well, I'll tell you one of my favorites.

[Some people have to work for freedom the old fashioned way.]

Poor people have it, rich people need it, and if you eat it you'll die. What is it?

[Remember this old room, Ana? Kanbaru is still in it and she's looking a little surprised before she grins.]

So you got an upgrade, huh, Queen-san? Wondered where you went.

video;

[impureheart]

[ Sorry Kanbaru, she's moved on. But at least she's okay with Kanbaru enough that she's willing to still consider her. No sense in burning bridges. ]

My apologies for skipping the formal farewell but I never was very good with sharing.

video;

[ambivalentpaws]

[No worries here. She's just kind of glad the Queen didn't just up and die on her.]

No problem. At least now I don't have to ask you before buying a basketball hoop.

[ Loki wasn't normally one for video, but it only seemed appropriate. Nearly everyone else was doing it.

If his expression was any indication, he seemed thoroughly impressed. ]

Moving up in the world?

[video]

[impureheart]

I told you I never wish for long, darling.

[ There was a smile on her lips when she saw how impressed he looked. After all, Loki is one of the people she rather likes. She wouldn't trust him any more than any other in this place, but she certainly appreciates him. ]

[video]

[vaframenti]

A Queen must always be punctual.

[ He smiled in return, though much more openly than Anastasia had. He could only imagine that she was pleased by his reaction. ]

By what skill did you earn yourself these luxuries, I wonder?

[dolosa]

Ones where I aim to win. A good game of lies and betrayal that leads to certain death is also nice.

[impureheart]

Only if the stakes are worth the risk.

[aazein]

Ooh Anaaaaa~~~~! Putting that new room to good use?

Wow, that guy you got calling you that- what's so great about him? He looks like a total tool if you ask me.

[LA DEE DAAAA! it's way easier to antagonize her when he's not in the same room as her.]

[impureheart]

[ It really is, she can't smack him or scratch him or threaten to remove body parts. Of course, it's a lot easier to deal with being called Ana by someone other than Will when certain types of relations aren't taking place. ]

Apologies, darling, but as long as you're going to insist on calling me that I'm afraid I've no intent in telling you anything.
