“Read ‘em and weep, boys!” The purple rainwing slapped down her hand onto the table, eyes twinkling with amusement. The sandwing facing away from her gaped, still trying to process what just happened. He shook his head.
“Wait, no no no, that shouldn’t have happened”
She raised an eye-ridge at that statement. The sounds of the casino around made for a loud din, but that was a truly curious thing to say.
“You must’ve of cheated!”
“No more than you have,” she shot back idly. The sandwing made a strange face at her reply. A sudden deafening silence echoed out, everyone but he and her frozen. A spilled drink stood floating in the air, colored droplets shimmering.
The sandwing looked much more confidant now.
“Tell me how you cheated, and I’ll entertain the idea of letting you live. No one crosses the god of cards and gets away with it.”
She snorted.
“Is that what you call yourself? Full of yourself much?”
The sandwing’s nose flared at that. His eyes took on a dark sheen.
“You may act relaxed, but I know your afraid”
“Uhuh”
“Enough chitter chatter, answer me! How did you cheat”
“You know, you’re quite upset over a game of cards. And if you truly must know, I got lucky. And removed that little spell that caused cards to always be in your favor. Funny how you need that crutch to be good, oh mister god of cards”
“Little spell? That was divine magic. Your insolence shall pay!”
“Are all you dragon gods this full of themselves? I feel like I’m talking to children…”
“I’ve been around for a thousand millennium”
“Ah, so you are young.”
“What?” The sandwing seemed confused now. Likely used to others cowering in his presence.
“Kiddo, I’ve been around longer than you.”
The sandwing “god” finally seemed to actually notice surroundings. He could hardly yelp in either surprise or horror before he was just… *gone*.
A Nightwing with a purple hat slow clapped.
“Good show, good show!” He took a sip from his drink, unfrozen like her. He tipped her hat. When he was done with he drink, he continued;
“He always was insufferable. Glad to see him finally gone. Alas, I have my own chains, and couldn’t do it myself”
She chuckled at that. The Nightwing joined her.
“I’d buy you a drink to celebrate , but I believe it’s time for both of us to leave before Arbiters show up.”
The purple rainwing stretched out, as time finally resumed. However, neither the Nightwing, or her were there as the casino wooshed back into action.
All that was left in her seat was a little gold coin with smiling mask engravings.
