"You know, Ax, I didn't think you'd be much good at this."
((You did not believe that I would be able to deduce the point behind this simple human game?))
She smiled despite herself. "Of course I knew that an Andalite such as yourself couldn't possibly have trouble comprehending something that came from a human brain."
((I am becoming more adept at detecting sarcasm.))
"Good for you. Now answer me. We've both been stalling."
((I believe I would like to stay.))
"Okay. Cool. I'll stay too. Now show me your hand."
Ax spread out his cards before her and Rachel shook her head, smiling wryly. "I thought you were bluffing."
((Was that not the object of the game?)) It almost sounded like sarcasm.
"Yeah, that's the object of the game all right. I should have kept going. I could have taken one more hit."
((Show me your hand.))
Rachel held up her cards with a self-mocking flourish. "Fifteen. You got twenty-one. You win again."
((Yes, it would appear so.))
She smiled. "I can't believe I thought I could out-bluff an Andalite. You guys have the best poker faces in the universe."
((Poker faces?))
"That's a game for another day."
((Is this poker another game involving the cards with symbols on them? I am apparently quite adept at such games.))
"Yes, it would appear so."
