"Royal Flush!" Chevell said, slamming cards in his hand down on the table, a 10, jack, queen, king, and ace of diamonds. "Looks like I win again."

"We're not playing poker," Garmio replied. "We're playing old maid. Besides, you cheated anyway."

"Oh yeah?' Chevell replied. "I'm royalty, so it's only natural I get a royal flush. What makes you think I cheated?"

Garmio revealed the cards in his hand, a 3 of hearts, a 10 of clubs, a 2 and 6 of spades, and a queen of diamonds. "Because I have the queen of diamonds in my hand."

"Aren't there only one of each card?" Van asked.

"That's how I know he cheated!" Garmio shouted.

Chevell leaned back in his chair and put his hands behind his head. "Now now, what proof do you have that you are not in fact the one who cheated?" he asked with a smug smile.

"I see," Van said, rubbing his chin with his hand. "That would also explain this predicament."

"Life's too short to not bend the rules a bit," Chevell said with a laugh. "You need to lighten up and enjoy the game."

"I don't think we were even playing the same game," Garmio commented.

"Risty could you help resolve this?" Van asked, calling him over.

A young girl quietly walked into the room and stood by the door, trying not to draw attention to herself. She looked a bit uncomfortable.

Risty stopped on his route to the bathroom. "I can't handle that now! The king's holding a banquet tonight, and I haven't even picked out a dress to wear!" he said, then scurried to the hallway leading to the bathroom.

"Oooooh!" Jurami exclaimed, being the first to spot the girl. She rushed over, kneeling down. "You're just the cutest widdle thing!"

Nel peaked over from behind a large book. "Get that kid out of here."

Risty then peeked out of the hallway to see what the commotion was about.

Jurami stuck her tongue out at Nel. "MEANIE!"

Just then, Risty fell on the floor in a hysterical laugh. "Hahahahahaha! AHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!"

"Damn it stop laughing Risty," The girl said. "It thought the body was going to be older, and male."

"Yo, Risty. You know the kid?" Chevell called out.

"I hope my wife takes this better..." the girl said.

"Wait, wife?" Garmio said. "Is-Is that you?"

[KeshmarCurlyHair]

"AAAAAHHAHAHAHA!" Risty laughed , practically rolling on the floor.

"...it's who?" Jurami asked. "I'm confuzzled."

[Kazuki4356]

"You can stop laughing now. It's not that funny," the girl said.

"Actually Jurami," Garmio started to say, "that's..."

"Ro, right?" Chevell interrupted. "Though that body... ... ... ... ... ... ... Is fine too."

"Yeah, it's me," Ro said.

"Since when is Ro a little girl?" Van asked.

"I didn't realize you were into that kind of thing," Chevell remarked shrugging his shoulders. "Though maybe you should have asked your wife before becoming a little girl for your own pleasure."

"It's not like that at all," Ro protested. "I just needed a body with the power to stand up to your bastard uncle. It's not like I like being a little girl or anything!"

"I take it that body is a daughter of Shin's?" Nel asked.

"That would make you and Chevellie cousins!" Jurami commented.

Risty was still on his hands and knees, trying to catch his breath from laughing.

[Kazuki4356]

"Yeah," Ro replied. "Though I initially thought it was going to a boy. There's no doubt this body belongs to an Anstrum though, even if it's a young girl. The hair color is a clue, but once I took this form I could sense it, there's a strong power sleeping deep inside. Of course this wouldn't have been necessary if someone would be a little more serious." Ro glanced at Chevell

"Oh? I wonder who you could possibly mean," Chevell replied. His eyes squinted and his look turned serious for a moment. "Shin is a monster, even for an Anstrum. I wouldn't stand a chance no matter how much I trained." The carefree, lazy look he normally had came back as quickly as it left. "Or so I hear. You never can tell with those things."

"I was wondering," Van said. "Do you need to sit to pee now?"

[KeshmarCurlyHair]

Van's comment sent Risty into a lauging hysteria again as Nel closed her book, then reached over, smacking Van upside the head with it.

[Kazuki4356]

"What did I do?" Van asked, rubbing his head where his sister whacked him.

"I believe your that's your sister's way of saying the question was inappropriate," Garmio explained.

"Damn funny though," Chevell said laughing. "Oh and Ro, what grade are you in now? Kindergarten?"

Ro stood there, obviously pissed.

"When did you get that dress?" Jurami asked, admiring Ro's outfit. "Did you go shopping?"
