WEEK 6
Good morning, passengers. Happy Sunday. Happy New Year.
Three more of your number gone - or four, depending on your point of view. But regardless, you're down three bodies. The boat is getting less crowded, week by week. A loneliness only exacerbated by yet another new floor, and yet another section of topdeck. There are almost too many facilities for you to use by now, aren't there? And yet the amenities keep on coming. One of them is even personalized, this time, and perhaps not in a way you're fully comfortable with.
Who knows, maybe if your number falls enough, you'll be able to just exist permanently on the different floors. Might keep you out of the trial room for more than a week.
Are you at the point where you'd settle for that yet?
And if you look to the horizon, out in the distance... there are clouds starting to gather on the horizon this week.
SUNDAY | MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY
[ ooc: Welcome to week 6, everyone! Remember to turn in AC here and coins for regains over here! If you wish to get in contact with the npcs, Davy Jones is over here, and The Captain is over here! And as requested, profiles are accessible here. ]

[Looks like Filbo is willing to listen to tips, yup]
no subject
Right--so, first things first, let's focus on your face. We can get to body language and stuff later, but we'll start small for now. No getting fancy with bluffing or anything.
[For now, at least!]
The important part about maintaining a neutral expression is relaxing your face. If you're already tense, you'll be naturally inclined to react in some way. Take a deep breath, detach your mind from the situation.

[Sounds like the most basic thing, so if he can at least get it done, perhaps everything else will be easier. He hopes so, at least.
...time to try. Filbo does take a deep breath and just tries to relax his face. Somehow, that ends with him having the slight smile that he has most of the time when he's not feeling down in the dumps]
This is my neutral face. I think.
[At least what passes for one when it's about Filbo]
no subject
Good enough. The more you practice, the better you'll get.
[He snorts, rubbing the back of his neck.]
A lot of it comes down to being more...well, acting like you've got a royal flush, even when your hand is shit. Because if you believe it, other people will believe it, as well. Of course, that also means you gotta recognize when you've gotta fold.
no subject
[Which he was never really good at, hah]
I dunno when to fold, honestly. Y-You know me, I find it hard to back down once I get my mind into something!
[Please keep Filbo away from competitions involving money, he'd get fleeced so hard, hah]
