It did not care for poor Akiko's plight even a little. "No, there really wasn't much you could do besides sit back and hope you were lucky. Akiko um... well I think she rolled a one almost three times in a row." Pure, sheer skill and luck.

Have a sympathetic look. "That's been the worst part of meeting the new people, having to explain this to them and seeing how they react. Well, I guess the real worst part is they have to be here at all. Akiko has a lot of spirit though, we ended up playing games in the lounge a few times." He liked Akiko a lot, she was a good one. Play bad games with them sometime, Heiji.
