WOMAN I ADORE YOU. THIS IS WOOOOOOONDERFUL! I've been listening to "Poker Face" and "Love Game" while writing too. Great minds think alike!
I would like to take this opportunity to glee a little because this is so very, very them. Tense, meanings behind meanings, and double entendre. I especially love the ending. Of course Riley would have a Royal Flush. There's an issue that's just the X-Men sitting around playing poker and Remy's just being all mysterious and broody, and then blows up his winning hand and the table JUST TO SHOW HOW BADASS HE IS. (I'm already envisioning a version of this playing out in Tarts!Verse, and it's already serving as the opening for the second portion, and DEAR GOD I NEED TO FINISH THE FIRST SO I CAN WRITE THIS.) This whole little chunk reminded me of that issue, and I just want you to know that I am honoured you care enough to write for my little universe, and that you did so in such a lovely way. A couple grammar!fails aside, this was beautiful. Thanks for contributing even more to this 'verse than you already have.
For the record, your Andrew has a much dirtier mind than mine does. I kinda like it. :)
