Who: Lambert and YOU
Where: The Carnival
When: During the downtime between Atlantis and their next world.
What: Any Witcher worth his salt knows the first thing you should do when you're in an unfamiliar environment: get the lay of the land.
1. not the nurse you're looking for
[ You might have come into the medical tent looking for supplies or something else. If you were looking for Zecora, prepare to be disappointed because there's a scarred man scowling heavily as he clatters around the place, not working on anything in particular.
He doesn't seem to register there's someone else around -- or is he just straight up ignoring you??? ]
2. by the woods
[ With the carnival no longer water-logged, Lambert's taken a walk of the perimeter, even stepped into the edge of the woods, but he hasn't tried to press any further, although he's stood and looked at it for some time.
There's no sense letting his skills get rusty, so he mostly spends the time-- night or day-- sparring invisible enemies, steel sword flashing as he weaves it through the air.
When he's not swinging a sword around, you'll find him sitting on the dirt, legs folded under him and eyes closed. ]
3. getting to know you?
[ Lambert doesn't normally care about getting to know people, but he also normally doesn't stay anywhere longer than a few months, either. And that's at Kaer Morhen, where he can always get blind drunk and fuck off into the woods and kill some drowners if he needs to let off some steam instead of dealing with the other Witcher.
If he's going to be here for a year and a day? He's going to at least need to know names.
So wherever you are, whatever you're up to, you might notice a newcomer watching you for a few moments before he speaks up. ]
So what do you do around here?
4. wildcard!
[ If we discussed a previous scenario or you just want to do something not covered here, go for it! I'll match whatever prose style you go with. ]

no subject
[Yuugi pauses, taking in the man's eyes before shrugging. Some of his traits are at least noticeable - his ears, the digitigrade legs leading to paws, the skin pigmentation. Others would have to be looked at closer, but for now the friendly challenge is met with a bit of a grin, baring sharper teeth as he reassembled the card deck and held it up.]
These? I'm pretty good, but I'm not on my grandpa's level. He taught me everything.
[He raises an eyebrow.]
Feel up to a game?
no subject
[ He sincerely doubts it, but it'd be a pleasant surprise if he did. ]
Name's Lambert. [ He adds, off handedly. ] And you're...?
no subject
[Yuugi cuts the deck and shuffles again, looking down at the deck as he considers what they can play. He was more used to playing one person card games when he wasn't playing M&W, though his grandpa had taught him poker and blackjack. He taps the deck to his chin, then looks up at the introduction with a bit less toothy smile.]
Mutou Yuugi, it's nice to meet you.
[And he sincerely means it.]
Should we run through the card games we know to see if any are familiar?
itt: what are medieval card games, according to google
[ He didn't bring it with him at the moment, not expecting any players, but maybe that'll have to change. The sincerity takes him back a little, but he's quick to recover. ]
Cacho, piquet, all fours ... ever played any of those?
I know the pain
[He honestly hasn't played anything but Duel Monsters for a long while, which is why getting his old deck of cards is such a refresher. Yuugi tilts his head, ears flicking in contemplation before he nods to himself and rests his elbows on the table, thumbs pulling the cards apart.]
The player with the more valuable cards in tricks scores a point, but Sixes and Jacks are worth a bit more. The players are dealt six cards and a trump is involved...I think.
when all else fails, do a montage
Sounds about right. It's been a while since I played, so I could use a refresher on the rules, anyway. Besides, it's not like we're playing for anything, are we?
wow I thought I'd tagged
[He'd come here with pretty much the clothes on his back, his backpack and duel disk and that was it. Whatever had been in the backpack was what he had, including the cards. Yuugi thumbs out a couple of cards, to get used to the playing style before he scoops them back into the deck and shuffles, then starts dealing.]
Are you okay with that, Lambert-san?
