Snippet #2589468

Alexia Gallagher studied the Captain, the Chief of Security, and the other few players at the table, trying to judge whether or not they had good hands. Alexia had been playing cards since the near beginning of the game, and much to her chagrin the Captain seemed to have a unnatural winning streak, as he'd yet to lose a game.

Alexia was hoping to end that, though. And she had just the hand to end it, or so she hoped.

"Full house, gentleman and ladies." Alexia announced, displaying her cards for the others to see. There were some groans at her apparent winning hand, but the pilot did not acknowledge them. Instead, she merely grinned, and reached over to get the chips.

"Sorry, Captain, but it looks like all good things must come to an end," the blue-skinned alien decreed, grinning over cheekily at her superior officer.

It might be unwise to act so victorious around her Captain, but from what Alexia had been able to tell thus far, Zekr was a very agreeable man. Easy going, not too serious and stiff. The sort of commanding officer she preferred to serve under.
