Aurelia
as if you were on fire
from within
from within
Aurelia notices that he doesn't take a drink from his glass, and frankly- that's weird. So neither does she, squinting at him suspiciously for a moment. If he thinks she's forgotten about his little stunt the last time they met, he's dead wrong - and she's far from forgiven him for it. There's no way in hell she trusts him, especially if he won't even bother to drink with her.
So when he requests the ring as part of the gamble, she picks it up from its spot on the table, holding it up to scrutinize it. "What, this old thing?" She puts it on her forefinger and grins at him. But she makes no comment on whether or not she'll agree to it, she'll simply wear it for the remainder of the game. Just to piss him off.
"Hah! I win~!" Comes the small victory cry, before she's swooping in to pick up all the cards and shuffle them again. "You'll have to have better luck than that if you want the ring," she says, rather astutely. But she eyes his face as if she's thinking really hard about what she wants to ask him. "What's your real name?"
Answer or no, she replaces the deck after a small bit of shuffling and taps it expectantly for him to start first this time. Eventually, she comes up with an eleven... What a weird coincidence!
