August 18th? | the bar

[Firo's used to having someone to chat with while at the bar, but tonight Maiza's busy and none of his other friends are drinkers. Shyness isn't something he counts among his disadvantages, so instead of draining his drink and going home, he walks over to the nearest person. Setting the drink down on the bar, he smiles.]

Hey, what're you up to? Mind if I join you?

[Thanks to his own disdain of guys who try to pick up girls, the thought that she'd think he was trying to flirt doesn't even cross his mind. And given his sensitivity to the matter, he's too annoyed at being called a kid to ask why she puts an age limit on people talking to her.

Taken aback, he frowns.
]

Who're you callin' kid? You can't be much older than me yourself.

[To him she looks about Claire's age, maybe a year or two older.]

[He looks babyfaced to most people, much to his dismay.]

How old are you, then? And why's it even matter, anyway?

[He doesn't really know that the former's a question you're not supposed to just ask people.]

[Ordinarily Firo'd hurt anyone who called him anything like "jailbait". He's already opening his mouth to protest when she says the last statement, and then her reaction finally makes sense to him.

He takes a quick step back, partly horrified and partly just feeling bad for her.
]

Hey, hey, wait a minute, when did I say anything about that?

...But all I said was hi. That's how most people start a conversation, you know, at least where I come from.

[Firo's spent too much time socializing with a limited circle (read: aging gangsters) to have a good understanding of social cues and what can be read as flirting.]

[His face turns bright red.]

Th-that's not what I meant at all! I just wanted to see if you wanted to play cards or somethin'...

Um, I-I'm sorry?

[Is that what you say when you've apparently accidentally asked someone to do something unspeakable?]
foundafamily: (3.1)

[personal profile] foundafamily 2013-09-07 04:12 am (UTC)(link)
[Firo stares back, reluctant to be the first person to look away when someone's practically glaring at him. Even if that person is sort of scary-looking and he's already feeling a bit guilty about bothering them.]

I told you, I'm not a kid-!

[But with that out of the way, he beams at being taken up on his offer. His blush slowly starts to fade and he relaxes.]

I was thinkin' poker--you can play that, right?

[He tends to assume it's common knowledge, though he has had to teach a couple people in Luceti.]
foundafamily: (13.3)

[personal profile] foundafamily 2013-09-08 02:06 am (UTC)(link)
We don't have to play for anything.

[In other words, he actually didn't think that far ahead.]

How about... stories? Like from home.
foundafamily: (Default)

[personal profile] foundafamily 2013-09-11 11:35 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah. Better start thinkin' up something good now.

[He smiles and takes his deck out of his jacket pocket. Seven card stud is what he usually plays back home, so he decides to go with that. He gives them each two cards face down and one face up.

He's starting to wonder how many times in the past five or so minutes he's had to tell her that he's not a kid.
]

And my name's not "kid", it's Firo. What's yours?
foundafamily: (1.1)

Of course! I'm not a poker player either, so I apologize in advance!

[personal profile] foundafamily 2013-09-12 03:09 am (UTC)(link)
[He lifts up the edges of his cards to take a peek at them, laughing at her comment. Wait until she hears his last name.]

My dad was from Naples, so you're right. Where do people name their kids "Revy"?

[Now's the part where they'd normally bet or fold, but since they're just going by winner and loser at the end he decides it's not necessary. He moves to hand them each another card face up.]

I assume you're not foldin' yet?
foundafamily: (14.1)

[personal profile] foundafamily 2013-09-12 12:58 pm (UTC)(link)
[He laughs, shaking his head and taking a quick glance at her face up cards.]

Moonblood? The hell kinda name is that? Sounds like an actor or somethin'.

[Thanks to living a couple decades before the Rocky movies came out, Firo would have no idea who that was if his friend Mac hadn't made him watch the first one in Luceti. Hearing the movies referenced gives him a pang of nostalgia, even though they're not really his thing.]

...That guy had a kid? And named him that? Isn't sage a plant?

[That's such an un-tough name.]
foundafamily: (Default)

[personal profile] foundafamily 2013-09-14 02:58 am (UTC)(link)
Seems like a cruel thing to do...

[He notices her tapping on the table, and after a moment contemplating waiting to deal just to be a jerk, he gives each of them another card. They should both be up to five now.]

I heard they used to do that out West to make sure kids would get toughened up by bullies--well, not with funky names like that, but with girl names. Did it work with that kid?
