A PAPER SEALED WITHIN A LETTER TUCKED INTO A STACK OF CARD. THE WRITING IS SLIGHTLY NEWER, BUT MUCH DATED. ITS WRITTEN IN A NARROW AND PRECISE MANNER.
you hold my deepest condolences for this sudden message- but forgiveness is scarce when it comes to those who lose a bet within the walls of this casino, no?
he was a bit foolish to put something on the line when he knew not of what he spoke of. hm, hm. then let us be out of your hair. . there are many others who could take on our former roles as your assistants. potential lies plenty.
do not worry. I enforced our rules nonetheless.
I should not wish you luck for the woman who has not lost a single game, so instead I hope the other should not win.
{even though I think risktaker has a husband but we can pretend she doesn’t just for this}
. . . . .
the dealmaker furrowed his brows - before his mouth tugged into a small frown and he shook his head - raising his hand to snap only to suddenly reel back from his chair - standing up as he closed his eyes shut, holding his head. the candles around the shop flickered heavily, any light disappearing in an instant and within the eerie darkness, a loud thud against the ground could be heard.
… as the candles seemed to go back to normal, specter was missing entirely from his chair only to rise again swiftly with a smile - but it seemed. . off. instead of the usual faint cross stitched pattern visible within his eyes, a bright diamond took its place as well as a small paper crown hat made out of cards replacing his former top hat. “he” didn’t seem particularly phased, simply leaning forward against the counter and placing his weight on his elbows with a hum.
oh! I and risktaker, you say? it certainly would go well - yes, yes I approve, person with sunglasse - I mean “dear customer”! how could I not? it’s a match as perfect as my cards. . in fact— why don’t you take your turn right now?
don’t tell me you’re going to pretend that I don’t exist now.
briefly, the last sentence flickered on the scroll before “specter” quickly snapped it away - shaking his head before turning back to face the other with a . . smug look.

ooc note : sorry anon I had to i promise this is all /lh. but I can’t really imagine them being anything but soul snatcher buddies so they’d probably at least be close over that

Amongst the crowds of people inside of the casino, a figure with wolf like ears and a top hat as well as a dog adorning a wolf’s mask on its head stumbling after seemed to wander through it curiously. Though, something seemed far off about their and the dog’s presence - much more different than the typical visitor, almost a supernatural sense about them as they inspected a slots machine.

The constant crowds were a normality for the casino, a delight it was to watch them drown further and further within the madness that took place here. Alas, Risktaker had business to take care of, so having her own fun would have to wait.
Strolling through, Emily noticed something out of the corner of her eye. Newcomers, it seemed. With how unique their appearance was, it was a wonder how she hadn’t noticed them earlier. Ah, but it wasn’t just appearances that caught her attention, no. Something was special about them, off but special nonetheless. Business will have to wait after all.
Approaching her new visitor and their furry companion, Risktaker gave a welcoming smile; swirling the drink in her hand.
"Welcome~ Have the slot machines caught your interest?"
Heeeyyy Risktaker, you uh.. you might need to go check on your husband-
"Is he bothering the patrons over cards again? I told him to calm down with that or he’ll end up scaring them away. Unfortunately, I’m a little busy right now. I’ll check on him later. Whatever it is, I’m sure he’s fine."
