Blackjack had been the first thing he had played when he got here and he was pretty sure he regretted it now. With a sigh he took a seat at the table, eyes staring aimlessly at the dealer as he shuffled the cards and handed Cecil two. A queen and a three. He swallowed hard trying to decide what to do. One card was already high but he was still no where near where he needed to be.

He hated this whole situation.

It didn't take a lot these days for him to be a cranky asshat though, so it wouldn't be exactly surprising. Before this whole undying ordeal Charlie was actually happy and kind, firm but still a nice guy. Somewhere deep inside he might still be there, but goodluck getting past his newly formed hard exterior.

Spying a familiar face he made his way towards Cecil, flopping father unceremoniously into the chair next to him. "Hello, lovely day for death maiming and gambling fools?" Grumpy as ever.

he reached out and grabbed two cards randomly, flicking his eyes at them he frowned. No way it was that easy. "Blackjack." He just gave the cards right on back, claiming the coins.

Cecil turned the moment he heard someone sit next to him and smiled as best he could at Charlie. Their assistant lead had been cranky from the beginning and he couldn't imagine this situation was going to be any more helpful to the mood and the first words out of Charlie's mouth solidified that. Nope...not at all.

There was a weak imitation of a chuckle, Cecil's gaze shifting to the cards Charlie got back. "Blackjack already. I hope I'm as lucky."

If it was just money, Cecil wouldn't have been as anxious as he was when he tapped the table and said hit. He might as well have been hit physically for as much as the card he was given made him frown. "Heh, I guess I'm still not very good at this." He said softly with that same smile as he pushed his lost coins over.

Slipping into a seat next to the two students, Peter gestured for the cards to be dealt.“Have you tried out the other games yet?” he asked, peering at the cards in his hand.

Hmmm,” he pondered over his hand, flipping them back face down on the table. He could simply fold here and minimize the loss, but the odds were tempting enough.

And it was a bust. Shrugging, he surrendered his hand and 5 coins.

How has progress been?” he asked, staring at the values on their tags which were unsurprisingly higher than his.

Rorrow spotted a few familiar faces, walking briskly over he smiled. "Oh thank god, I found someone I know...Hey Cecil, Charlie...Professor." He sat down next to Cecil glad to see the others. Really. Being around them helped him remember why he was really here...

For them.

He nodded at the dealer as he was given his cards...well it was all or nothing...

Charlie nodded as two more familiar faces - also University faction - joined their table. "Beginners luck, trust me." He solidified this notion more by the two cards he received in his next hand. Shuffling the cards a little nervously, he knew he would have to pull again from the pile.

"Nah, this is my first go at this craziness. This place is a real s**t hole." He didn't bother to censor his language, they were in an apocalypse. There was no need to be gentle. Looking around at how everyone seemed to be having 'fun', it was sickening really. They were all in the worst positions possible. He saw someone die today.

"Don't worry, we plan to get everyone out." By 'we' he hoped they would know he meant himself, Corey, and Caroline. "We just need some luck on our side."

"Hi Professor," Cecil greeted politely, again trying to smile. "I tried the slots earlier but I didn't get much. Probably going to lose it here."

His smile grew a little bit when Rorrow appeared and he gestured for him to take a seat if he wished. At least he seemed to be a little more cheery.

"I will do my best to help, Charlie, but I'm not much of a gambler." He waited for his new hand, staring at the pair of cards.

Nodding at the other student who had joined them, Peter motioned for another hand to be dealt to him.

12, a fairly safe number to hit.

It was a low number so Cecil asked for another card, his nerves rattling when he saw that he was now sitting on a grand total of 14. Well, he was in this to win he supposed.

I would need some luck indeed,” he chuckled, surrendering his hand and another 5 coins.

But don't be afraid to prioritize the others Charlie,” he added softly.

"Remember there is no shame in backing out if you dont feel your luck." He mumbled to the other three here, feeling responsible for them. "Besides, this is all a game of chance and luck. I hate gambling." He shook his head grabbing another small card, sighing and adding it to his pile.

Snapping his eyes towards Peter, he shook his head. "No, I refuse to leave anyone here."
