#there's so many options for dumb it's hard to “settle” on just one 😭

your actions have wronged me, I must have revenge.

“Hah!” 

There’s a wolf in the henhouse.

“I’d like t’see you try, Needles.” Slowly but surely, he’s racking up all the points he needs to win this little game. Vash may have been sitting pretty on his 8-resource tile for a majority of the game, but Meryl rolling a lucky 7 just bought him a one-way ticket to sweet, sweet, victory. Naturally, she made the economical choice and placed the Robber on Vash’s major resource tile. That was enough to steal some of the wind out of blondie’s sails, but the Humanoid Typhoon’s fate was sealed the moment Wolfwood revealed his Knight card and put it into play.

Now, Vash’s defeat is all but assured. Seated cross-legged with one hand resting on top of his knee, Wolfwood leans forward to assess the current state of the board. He's practically grinning from ear to ear. 

“Yeah, okay,” Meryl interjects through their staring contest with an audible groan. She tosses her cards out in front of her, effectively abandoning her position. “I forfeit. You guys can do whatever you want. Roberto, you can–”

“Waaay ahead of you, newbie,” Roberto drawls from behind an outcrop of sandstone on the other side of camp. The sound of the senior reporter’s voice briefly draws away Wolfwood’s attention, but he’s less impressed with the man’s lack of mental fortitude and more impressed that he managed to gracefully excuse himself from the game without anyone else noticing.

Where the hell did he even put his cards?

“Hey! Are you eating dinner without us?!”Jumping to her feet, Meryl stalks off from the firelight with her hands balled into tiny fists.

Back to more important things, then.

“So, what’re you gonna do, blondie?” Wolfwood leans back into a rising throne of rocks behind him (it’s not even that comfortable, but he probably looks way more smug draping his arms over the boulders) and breathes out a lazy plume of smoke through the open sliver of his smirk. 

“Could beg for mercy.”
