“Well thats fair. I have slot machines that are like video games but thatd be stretching it. I only recently learned of those after getting here”
He chuckled to himself
“I should’ve introduced myself. The names Buck, whats yours?”
~options, its even a nice place to hang out if you dont want the V’s to see you”
“No its not only card games. Technically you could gamble anything. There could be two rats fighting and we could bet on which one wins”
Buck leaned against the wall and pulled out a cigar, lighting it as he took a couple puffs from it
“But I offer a better service at my casino with a bunch of~
~to achieve something greater. You could gamble with money or even someones life. All for that rush of winning. Its what got me down here”
“Ha! Sheep following the pack is what it sounds like to me. People need something to blame so they can feel better about their shortcomings.”
Buck shook his head pointing out some of the sinners walking by
“maybe they got murdered but lifes a gamble and Gambling is putting something on the line~
Buck caught it and grinned before putting it under his hat and nodded
“Thanks. I cant wait for my next visit when I see my machines up and running. But till then I hope lady luck shines on you bud. Take care”
With that Buck waved before making his exit out of the nightclub
~from his Cigar blowing the smoke away from them as his curiosity got peaked
“So what kind of trouble follows with you around? It seems like you’d scare most trouble away”
Buck had to crane his neck up in order to see Cain since he was only 6ft, and after those words he felt a little tense but kept his composure
“Cain huh. Well Im Buck and I Haven’t been here long, only ones I really know are the V’s. But my Casino is open to anyone who’s interested”
He took a puff~
~excitement. Have you ever gambled before?”
Buck had just gotten shoved out of a bar by the bouncer and was cursing back and fourth with the owner. Buck groaned and dusted himself off before noticing @bunnyxxorchid.bsky.social, walking up to her he cleared his throat while fixing his hat
“Good evening. You look like you could use some~
~Looking for some new clients or even investors. Does gambling tickle your interest?”
Buck was doing his usual rounds around town looking to grab any attention to his newly opened Casino. While on his walk he saw @fatherofmurder.bsky.social and walked up to him with haste
“Hey there bud. Have you heard of a great new place called the Dead End Casino? Well I run the place and Im~
Buck smiled before standing up and put his coat back on, his hand came up to tip his hat to the hellcat
“Well this has been a great. My men will be by later with the machines so for now Im gonna head back and take care of my Casino.”
“If whatever I just experienced could tell me anything its that theres a future in this partnership”
Buck fixed his had and took another puff from his cigar watching the smoke as he exhaled
“how soon can I put my machines in your club here? If possible Id like to get them in by the end of the day”
“Hey money can buy all the entertainment you want. Are you an entertainer or something?”
Buck hasn’t heard of Alastor before this
~Cigarette as the light came back showing Buck still sitting in Callis office with him laughing while sitting back in his chair, a bit spaced out but slowly came to
🎶”When this is over, they’ll know we run this town”🎶
[1:32]
Buck matched the line saying it with Calli and with both of them sitting down everything around them slowly started fading to black again. The only thing that was still visible were their eyes and the lit ends of Bucks Cigar and Callis~
Buck looked at the chair and walked up to it as he grabbed his Trenchcoat and moved it aside with a flourish before sitting down
🎶”If they push us they’ll wind up, six feet down”🎶
He brought his hands together with a look of killing intent followed by a cocky smirk
Bucks slots almost started spinning at the mention of the blue screen egomaniac as he groaned.
🎶“Get him pissed and he’ll start to glitch”🎶
Buck chuckled with a grin now as he flicked away his cigar and tipped his hat to Calli
🎶”in this game of wits, the hunter comes out on top”🎶
Bucks stage stopped spinning as he stared towards the entrance of his Casino, but he saw Calli in his burlesque like their businesses were attached.
Realizing this it only made Buck laugh as he remembered there agreement pointing toward Calli
[0:56]
🎶“That Valentino, hes a ratbag piece of shit”🎶
~out to his machines
🎶“They say its rigged, but its no bait and switch”🎶
He then raised his arm up pointing to the ceiling
🎶“Lets up the Ante and go raise the Stakes”🎶
The stage started to spin, slowly picking up pace with buck on it
🎶“We’re in sixth gear and there are no brakes”🎶
~suddenly Buck was inside his casino standing centre stage holding a cigar with a grin. A guard in the background was playing the saxophone that Buck and Calli were hearing
[0:18]
🎶“Come to my casino, pop a coin get rich”🎶
He walked down the stage looking around, with a grin he held his arm~
Once Bucks lever was pulled the three slots he had started spinning rapidly which only pumped him up more
“You know what they say~”
The slots started coming to a halt as it read out three flaming Sixes while Buck rose to his feet
“THE HOUSE ALWAYS WINS!”
The music started picking up and~
“If you’re rich enough, suddenly everything has a price tag. Money made the world go round so hell should be no different”
As the Music picked up Buck was grinning listening to Calli
“Its like we’re playing em in poker and we got a royal flush”
“I mean if the road to salivation leads to a huge load of cash Id try to”
~ as youtu.be/AFaSvA6eVKk started coming in
As Buck started zoning out in the chair it was like the room around them started getting darker before it was fully blacked out. It happened so fast once he blinked him and Calli were surrounded by a haze of smoke as he started hearing the Saxophone as well.
Buck laughed and looked over at Calli~
