"Ha! I think you’re bluffing, Robin! You don’t have the killer instinct to break my things on purpose," Monday says with a sneer. They slide a face down card forward. "But I do. Do you think I’m bluffing?"

Gertrude sees the 7 in play, ten other diamonds face up, and two were sent to the box. (…unless Monday bluffed earlier, that is.)

Gertrude looks for something to destroy while patiently waiting for Robin’s turn to end.

As Robin and Monday clash in a battle of wills, Yazeba looks at the empty card draw pile. "So now the cards have been dealt and it only remains for us to meet our fates. We must be willing to do whatever it takes to recover Gertrude's heart."
OOC:
Whoopsie: Stay cryptic and secretive about something that matters to everyone.

Robin hesitates when Monday asks the question. They look around at their friends for guidance and notice that they don't seem worried about what's going on with Robin's card. In fact, they're just doing their own thing. That must mean that they trust Robin's actions.

"I do think you're bluffing, Monday." They say, holding onto their card to flip it over when Monday does so as well. "You know, it's not to late to just stop this."

Monday flips their card to reveal the 4 of Clubs. Robin has called their bluff!

"The hour is later than you think," Monday snarls, their glamours faltering.
OOC:
Robin does a Bingo and chooses one of Monday's Bingos or Whoopsies to cross off. Gertrude and Yazeba may still act.

"You know what?" Robin says after seeing that Monday was once again beaten. "I think you're just all talk, Monday!" They look stern. "I don't think that any of your suggested deals are worth a penny. So I'm going to suggest that you shouldn't even bother with them anymore. I for one won't believe you!" They puff out a little smoke cloud to show their heated resolve in this matter.
OOC:
I will cross out the whoopsie "Offer up a bad deal".
Bingo (with no effect): Stand up for myself and speak my mind

Gert puts forward the Queen of Diamonds.

"I am going to destroy the most beautiful thibg in this house. I’m not bluffing, but I am going to wait until the game is done."

Monday grimaces as they slide a card forward to counter Gertrude. "I won't let you do that. My power is still strong! Do you think I'm bluffing?"

"Yes," Gert says flatly.

Monday growls as they reveal their card, the 2 of Spades.

@Legendary_Sidekick, Gertrude does a Bingo and chooses one of Monday's Bingos or Whoopsies to cross off. Yazeba may still act.

"You called me a… urine-ant, or something like that. Seems you took my action as a personal insult."
OOC:
Whoopsie ⚡️ Criticize someone (and call it "helping.") She’ll help by crossing out "twist words until you find a reason to be insulted."
"That’ll be enough of that."

By pulling out an X card Hey Kid handed out one D&D night, Gert somehow "helps" Monday not find reasons to be insulted.

After an awkward silence… "You’re welcome."

"You are both handling this quite well. An outside observer would scarcely be able to guess you are both rank amateurs at fairy negotiating," Yazeba says, allowing a small smile to quirk up at the corners of her mouth.
OOC:
Bingo: Show kindness... of a sort.
