Jaina. At a booth with a chocolate milkshake and a deck of sabacc cards that she's currently shuffling.

Do come say hi. Mun appreciates distractions from essay writing.

Jaina laughs. "We intend to. Plan on getting a rise out of him somehow this winter."

Blink. Blink.

"You know, I don't doubt that for a minute," she snickers. Wooo, mind inna gutter!

Jaina's eyes widen and her mouth opens as she stares at Tahiri in a sort of embaressed surprise.

"Kriff it, Tahiri, didn't mean it like that!"

"Then you shouldn'ta said it like that," she says reasonably.

And eats a few Reese's Pieces, just for the hell of it.

She grabs a handful of M&Ms out of the sabacc pot and shakes her head, the hint of a grin on her face.

"There'd be no point in saying that. It's pretty easy to get a rise out of him that way. Like to think we're an expert by now."

"Hey! Don't eat my winnings!"

Because she totally plans to win this game.

"Since you are marrying the guy yeah, I'd hope so."

Jaina rolls her eyes and grabs another couple of candies from the sabacc pot, tossing them into her mouth. "Like you'll win, anyway."

...that must be Zekk's influence on her behavior.

She smiles broadly at Tahiri. "Nope, no worries in that department."

"I would if you'd quite eating our credits," she teases back.

"Okay, all bets are in. Let's see your hand."

Jaina chuckles. "Just candies, Tahiri."

She obliges and lays her cards face up on the table: 9 of Sabres, the Idiot card, 3 of Staves, Queen of Air and Darkness (-2), and the 10 of Flasks.

Tahiri frowns as she lays her own cards down-- 3 and 4 of Sabers, the 2 of Flasks, Balance (-11) and the Star (-17)... for a total of -19.

"Kriff."

Jaina laughs, pulling the hand pot towards her. "Told you so."

"Damn Solos. I should know better."

But she's smiling... at least Tahiri was smart enough to insist on candy instead of money.

She beams. "Why do you think Zekk refused to play with us today?"

Jaina dumps the bowl out in front of her. "'nother round?"

"Nah, I think I'll quit while I've still got some snacks left."

Tahiri carefully picks up her nest of Reese's and slips them into a jumpsuit pocket. "I'll be looking for a rematch later though."

"If you say so." Jaina shrugs and begins to place her winnings into one of the bowls. "We're counting on that rematch."

"Name a time and a place," she says with a grin.

"How does next week sound? Same time and place?"

She pauses, considering it over. "Bring Ray if you'd like. So he doesn't have to wait for a larger game."

"Sounds good."

She's not sure if Ray'll be done with his demon-fighting, but she'll mention it if she sees him around.

"See you later, Jaina."

Jaina nods, picking up the deck and shuffling it again. "See you, Tahiri."
