"Mm, for me, perhaps," Sam said, flipping his card and taking Karia's. "And hey, a card's a card in the end, we have no idea how this is going to go." The man hummed, fixing his ever-growing second pile.

"Oh, come on!" Karia sighed, shaking his head in disappointment. "True, true. It might get pitted against your worst card, and then it wouldn't be so bad." Karia glanced at Sam's growing pile of cards. "But, you are looking like the most favorable for winning at the moment."

"Yes, I am," Sam agreed, "But this game can turn in a moment on me. Who knows, you've still got a fighting chance." The man chuckled as they continued with the game, legs folded under him.

"A fighting chance that's dwindling every time I put down a card," Karia laughed, putting down his next card. "Ah, maybe this is my fighting chance? If you put down anything higher than a queen I'm going to be so sad."

"Well, it's a good thing it's not, then." Sam didn't mind giving up a number card, laughing a bit.
"Mm…" He laughed again, arms folding.

"Oh, thank you. Thank you. Now just keep doing that, alright?" Karia scooped the last of his mac and cheese into his mouth and set the bowl to the side. "Keep doing it until you have no cards, preferably." He laughed.

Sam laughed in turn, flipping his next card out. Both of their decks were running low, the first round coming to a close.
"You wish," he teased, looking at his larger second deck.

"I do wish." Karia flipped over his own card and grinned. "And wishes can come true." He reached over and claimed his victory. "Another one?" Karia flipped over his next card, eyes hopeful.

"Sorry, no dice." Sam laughed as he flipped his card, snagging Karia's and setting it neatly in his pile.
"Wishes can only take one so far, after all."

"Hmm, I suppose you're right." Karia shook his head. He glanced between his sad little pile and Sam's towering pile of cards. "Still… Card gods, please gift me the rest of his cards." Karia laughed a little and flipped over one of his last cards.

Sam flipped over his last card, smirking.
"Well, it was the rest of that pile," he noted, laughing some as he gave the card over.

"Alright, alright." Karia nodded. "Now the other pile." He smirked and shuffled his tiny pile of cards won. It would be a tough thing to come back from such a devastating point, but he would do it.

Sam shuffled as well, taking a bit longer so he could make sure it was actually mixed up well at such a large size.
"Mm, this game might be faster than we expected," he said with a laugh.

"Unfortunately… yes. My luck let me down today." Karia shook his head, smiling a little. "But you never know. You might eat those words later." He laid down his card.

"Mm, I might have, if I hadn't had so much food just now." Sam laughed as he flipped his card over, taking Karia's. He smirked some, flipping out a low card and obviously not caring.

"Oh, stars." Karia burst out laughing, actually falling back. At that moment, he didn't care about losing the card. "Sam, you are the best." He pushed himself back into a sitting position and flipped over a card. It was low as well but slightly higher than Sam's. "Oh, joy."

Sam felt a small blush coming to his face when Karia said he was the best, quickly squashing it. No, no, he wasn't going to do that.
"Well, we're even so far with wins and losses," he pointed out. "That's encouraging some." He flipped out his next card, smiling slightly.

"Mmm, yes, but those last cards are most likely going to be useless. Yours more than mine." Karia smirked and put down a card. "And, of course, we simply can't be forgetting the fact that you took most of my cards last round." He sighed dramatically. "I need to absolutely crush you in this round if I'm to have a chance."

"Well, I think this is all gonna go my way~!" Sam chuckled some, flipping his card and taking them. "Well, this is going come out for me!" He hummed, patting his large pile of cards.

Karia sighed dramatically and brushed some hair out of his eyes. "Stars, it seems to be that way. What kind of luck do you have?"

"The abundant kind that you use to crush your enemies." Sam chuckled some to himself, looking at Karia. "Too bad we didn't have any of it when scouting out the place earlier."

Karia gasped. "So am I an enemy now? I thought we had something." He sighed heavily. "You seemed to have saved it all for now, where you're crushing your poor, undeserving partner in crime." Karia shook his head, exaggerating his sadness.

"Oh, but don't you know? Alliances are fleeting, my dear Karia, and this, is, war. " Sam held back another bit of laughter as he flipped his card out, snorting some.

"Oh, you have slain me with those words!" Karia gasped, pressing one hand to his heart. He flipped over his next card, his eyes widening. "What is this? A small victory?" Karia collected his two cards with a smile.

"Enjoy it while it lasts!" Sam said, chuckling some. "You're not going to have many more to come." Sam ran his fingers through his hair as he flipped out his next card.
