[There is apparently one section on the fifth floor that's full of royally pissed off people. This lovely little announcement starts out with the sound of a hand slamming a communicator several times because the thing just isn't turning on fast enough, or working to his liking.]

Anyone up for a game of chess or Pai Sho or... practically anything? I have a ridiculous amount of games.

I'll need about twenty minutes to clean my room. [Because he has been breaking things left and right.]

I think I'll be leaving soon. At least for a little while. [Possibly for good. He's not sure yet. He's thinking that might be the case.] I need someone to be responsible for Ben for me, but I need to see my daughter. "Blame" whoever you like, I can't be of any use right now.

I could manage a game or two.

I'm two doors down from you. I'll have the door unlocked when I'm done. [He tends to leave the door open a lot. But not while fit throwing/cleaning up from fit throwing.]

You may need to go a bit slow with me. It's been years since I touched a chess board and I don't think I've played Pai Sho before.

{And so, about half an hour after that message, Garak arrives and knocks.]

[Rhade's cabin is darker than most cabins would be. He keeps the light low, but while half the furniture is stylized and streamlined and stark, the other half is ornate and- at his point in time -ancient. There's a bookcase on the shelf with a bevy of philosophical works, poetry, and classic plays. Light art and some paintings, a couple of strangely shaped mirrors that wouldn't actually be good to look at one's self in, and mounted swords are on the walls.

Two people decorated this room.

He has a chess board set up on his gaming table, one that Arthas gave him with stone pieces. The Pai Sho table is next to it, off to the side a little.]

What's your usual preference in alcohols? At least in flavor. I might find something that's a near equivalent. [He offers as he's getting himself a glass.]
