Does it make any logical sense that someone who is good at poker - and I have word that I am - would be absolutely terrible at strip poker? It's just poker with different stakes...

Ah, I hope you had a good night's sleep, Mikk Marquise? Let me know if you require my hospitality again.

Of course. He was a perfect gentleman.

So where's the logic in playing a game of strip poker, a game where your opponent gets all naked, when you have to return what you gain? The sheer pleasure of seeing the opposition strip, that's why he wasn't all busted up about giving you your clothing back. He's not always that merciful.

...But there's no reason to want to see me strip.

[lavida-loco.livejournal.com]

Being the Noah of "Pleasure" is all the reason he needs.

[stripping.livejournal.com]

Does he get pleasure from everything?

[lavida-loco.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I guess he does. I mean when I first met him he was kinda a bum livin' at the bottom of the barrel and he got pleasure from it...and he's also got an island and a big home and lots of stuff...so he get's pleasure from that and I say everything in between is fair game.

So it has nothing to do with me, then.

[lavida-loco.livejournal.com]

That depends on what you mean.

It makes sense now why he'd want to see me strip, because he would want to see anyone strip. It isn't as though I'm attractive, because that is an obvious lie.

I don't think that's true, you see when I first met Tyki he cheated my friend Crowley out of his clothing and he had no intention of returning them. He wanted the clothing and the belongings for the value. Crowley ain't exactly a stunner.

With you and me he gave our clothing back without any complaint, you even said he was a gentleman. Do you see the difference in pleasure? The pleasure of stripping someone because you think they're pretty and the pleasure of stripping someone for their belongings.

But that's... I'm not pretty. I refuse to say such a thing, despite all evidence toward it.

[lavida-loco.livejournal.com]

Well, I can't make you believe it if you don't want to, I'm just sayin' that's the likely reason you lost so much. I know I'm pretty easy on the eyes so that's how I figure it.

[stripping.livejournal.com]

...thank you. For attempting to help.

[lavida-loco.livejournal.com]

It wasn't an attempt, it was help, now you'll know what he's up to the next time you play strip poker.

[stripping.livejournal.com]

Perhaps I won't play.

[lavida-loco.livejournal.com]

Your best protection, as long as you're not drunk.

[stripping.livejournal.com]

I don't drink.

Threadjack!

[tyki-tock.livejournal.com]

What? Don't be silly. Of course I wanted to strip you because you're pretty.

Excellent!

[stripping.livejournal.com]

But I'm not! And you seem like a sensible person, so there should be no reason to strip a... non-pretty person for their looks.

[lavida-loco.livejournal.com]

I TOLD YOU!

[stripping.livejournal.com]

Shut up! Your opinion is irrelevant here!

[lavida-loco.livejournal.com]

BUT I WAS RIGHT!!!!

[tyki-tock.livejournal.com]

But you are pretty.

[stripping.livejournal.com]

I'm average-looking, really.

[tyki-tock.livejournal.com]

I don't lie about things like that, to people like you, Issei. I think you're attractive, or I wouldn't have bothered trying to seduce you.
