conversations.value:  “Oh!” Yu had shown up, breaking Claire’s concentration. And what he’d said was brutal. This single move would break my defense and instantly shift the advantage to Claire.

conversations.value:  “Rae is deliberately baiting you into attacking her and then guiding your pieces to places that are convenient for her. If you want to beat her, you’ll have to change your strategy.”

conversations.value:  “Yes, but…I’ve explained that many times in our post-game discussions.”

conversations.value:  “Let’s all play poker for a change of pace.” Yu pulled out a deck of cards, a grin on his face. The nearby noble kids started to cluster around us, and I was pleased to see that Misha was part of the group, too.

conversations.prefix: Yu:

conversations.value:  “Yes, sir.” The friend Yu appointed dealer had short black hair and a cool demeanor. The rules were simple. Each person was allowed to draw twice, and whoever had the strongest hand at the end won the round. We weren’t wagering any money, so there were no rules like betting, raising, or calling to complicate things.

conversations.value:  “Master Rod is just overestimating her.” Claire balked at Yu’s words. I resolved to feign complete ignorance. At least, that was my plan…
conversations.prefix: Claire:

conversations.value:  “Rae, were you going easy on Master Rod?” Misha demanded.
conversations.prefix: Misha:

conversations.value:  “Nuh-uh. Master Rod is imagining it. I played my best.”
conversations.prefix: Rae:

conversations.value:  “I certainly hope so. Master Rod loathes nothing more than people going easy on him in competition.”
conversations.prefix: Yu:

conversations.value:  “You really are interesting, Rae.” Yu laughed softly, which the noble girls around us clearly did not appreciate. They were so young…
conversations.prefix: Yu:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value:  “Did you deal everyone in? Okay, let’s start drawing. You go first, Rae.” I was dealt the two of clubs, four of clubs, three of hearts, ace of spades, and seven of spades. Not bad. I was just one away from a straight.
conversations.prefix: Yu:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value:  “I’ll draw one.” I discarded the seven of spades and the dealer dealt me one more card. It was the two of spades, which gave me a pair.
conversations.prefix: Rae:

conversations.value:  “You’re next, Misha.”
conversations.prefix: Rae:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value:  “I’ll draw as well. Give me two.” Misha’s expression didn’t change when she looked at her new cards. When Yu was around, she was the very picture of a sophisticated beauty. The other young ladies took their turns drawing.
