[2ND DRAW] - Hit or Stay?

[havealuckyday.insanejournal.com]

[On the porch of one of the guest houses, there is a woman dealing blackjack... to a ferret. Through a series of gestures, the ferret calls hit or stay, and they just keep playing hands, pushing small rocks back and forth as betting chips.]

You're off your game today, Chip.

[Rio giggles and deals two cards to herself, and then two to Chip, who stays at 18. Rio turns, hits 15, then deals a 5 to herself.]

Normally you're better at counting cards than this. I guess that's what we get for being lazy until now, isn't it?

[Chip makes a whining noise at her as she places the cards on the bottom of the deck.]
