"You always pick cards." Remi protests, knowing full well the reason: Remi was terrible at cards, while Ronin won almost any game played with them. "We always called them x's and o's growing up." He says with a slight shrug and crooked smile. "Of course a baron would have a pretentious name for them." Remi adds, nudging Ronin's hip with his.

Furrowing his brow, Remi reaches for the box and pulls out a small card with questions and answers written on it. "Uhm.. what is the longest river on Earth" He reads, frowning down at the word.

Rolling his eyes at the suggestion but eagerly accepting the wine, Remi shakes his head. "I am not sure Ludo would appreciate strip poker being played at its shrine quite the way Safrin would at hers, or Frey at theirs." He counters, sampling the wine as he lays down on his belly. "Oooh, how about this?" Waggling a small book, Remi bounces his eyebrows. "They are murder mystery puzzles. I read you something, and you have to figure out whodunnit." It was all Outlander nonsense, so whether or not the pair would understand enough to be successful, he had no idea. But it sounded like the sort of thing Ludo might like.
