[ That seems to have been a fairly successful first attempt, at least. Edelgard's response and the accompanying smile seem genuine enough to be reassuring. Perhaps it's silly to worry about crossing boundaries when that is the very nature of this game. This was almost pathetically tame in comparison to what he can see others engaging in around the room.

Still, it's nice to be paired with someone who can manage to find some thread of humor in their situation, strange as it may be. ]


Your opinion should carry more weight than any other, I would say.

[ Caleb's smile is also small, but it reaches his eyes, deepening the creases at the corners. His posture is on the poor side, ever so slightly stooped as if trying to make himself take up less space. But he stands up straighter now, head up and shoulders back, as if her question has put a spotlight over his head, and takes a steadying breath. ]

Please, go ahead.

[ Carefully quashing the compulsion to cross his arms or otherwise fidget, he glances from the dice in Edelgard's hand back up to her pale face. She has delicate but strikingly sharp features, he notes, and her eyes are a lovely pale purple. It's a lethal combination for him specifically, honestly, and it would be foolish of him not to at least admit that to himself. ]

I think many of these outcomes are bound to be a little ridiculous, but we will muddle through.
