Liv wasn’t a stranger to gambling by any means, silly bets placed here and there while she was in college but she had never been in a casino before, and she was pleasantly surprised by what she saw. Taking it all in, she weaved in and out of the crowds, careful of her dress not ending up a destination for someone’s drink, she took her own drink and made her way over to the roulette table, vaguely knowing how it all worked. Sliding in to an empty spot, she watched the table with a smile. “So, how is your night? Win big yet?” she asked the person next to her, sipping her drink lightly. “When you win big, gotta remember who your friends are.” she finished with a wink and a small laugh.

Despite wearing significantly comfortable heels, Iris has grown tired quicker than she had expected even though all she’d done was stand around watching card game after card game while she continued to get the same drink every time her glass emptied. But the drinking had come to a stop and she was now sticking to water for her own sake - and the headache she was getting from the lack of a solid meal in her system - as she was sat off somewhere looking around the room. Her dark brown eyes, however, kept lingering on the photo booth not so far away from where she was sitting since she’d always been quite the fan of them. So, as someone took a seat beside her, she smiled politely, “Have you tried the photo booth yet? I kind of want to see if it’s as fun as I remember them to be but normally I’ve used them with other people so I don’t quite know if the experience is the same when you’re alone. Which... sounds slightly pathetic now that I’ve said that aloud but oh well.” She finished with a simple shrug of the shoulders.

"Yanno, this was supposed to be fun,” Beckett protested as he stared at the slot machine he was standing in front of after he’d gotten annoyed at the Roulette table and chosen to walk away before he threw a childish fit of some sort, “But so far? It’s been far from it.” Once again, he smashed his hand against one of the buttons to test his luck before looking over at one of his best friends. “I mean, I’ve lost fifty seven bucks and it’s only been one hour, I’m wear these annoying clothes when I could be home in my sweatpants playing Super Mario Maker 2, and someone asked me for my ID ‘cause my dumbass chose to shave so now I look like a damn fifteen year old boy. My twenty fourth birthdays on Monday, for fucks sake! ---Have I told you that you look really nice? ‘Cause that’s been the one fun thing I’ve seen that isn’t a glass with alcohol in it.”
