Your Pov:
You've explored every inch of inkwell isle that you'd known so many people made so many friends. But you had always wondered about other places in inkwell. You know there's more but everyone tells you to watch for the unexpected, you did...that was until your curiousness led you to the devil's Casino and the worst mistake of your life a mistake that led you to where you are now.....
Now you work at the casino as price of your contract, at least you weren't dumb enough to wager your soul. Although you might as well have this job is draining, and having to deal with King Dice is what feels the worst.... but something changed when two cup headed kids showed up..... you cleaned the bar like any other day "I swear they're working me to death..." You sighed to one of the demon customers, even knowing they were too drunk to pay even minor attention but then you heard a commotion at one of many game tables "these boys can't lose!" You heard king dice say in his falsely exited voice you knew what this meant any minute and..."nice run, boys" the devil had walked up as he had time and time again "let's raise the stakes" you've tried time and time again to warn the people of inkwell but you weren't allowed to leave inkwell hell, any moment and you'd hear the beging you'd hear so many times "snake eyes! You loose your souls are mine!" You saw what looked like two kids and sighed they're so young they must be smart "w-we'll do anything!" You hear The cup kid with the bent straw silently apologizing to his what you thought was his brother, the cup in blue to you surprised convinced the devil to let them go as long as they collect the souls of the others in inkwell "now get out there you mugs!" And with that he threw them out of the casino and they close up the casino for the day. you walk up to King Dice as her cleaned the poker table "I got the last few drunks to leave sir" he looked at you his eyes lacking it's devious emerald green "Good" He had seem distance and distracted "Is something wrong mister Dice" you realized your mistake with a jolt, but he hadn't reacted but he looked at you surprised "you shouldn't care or worry about me Y/N, I'm just the "sleazy manager" that's what everyone thinks" he chuckled darkly his eyes turning emerald you took a step back, he's only ever like this when the devil is out, he let's himself feel his guilt "no matter what those kids will loose themselves.." he sighed and slumped down "the same mistake you and I made...I'm so sorry" you felt the odd compelling feeling to...comfort him "I'm sorry I dragged you into this...." You were scared this was an act but when you heard his laugh and saw the tears run down his face....you soon found yourself hugging the right hand man of the devil "you've made the same mistake as me you can't blame yourself mister Dice..." he shut his eyes, your voice was as soothing as you could make it "I've made greater mistakes then anyone...I have to stop those cup kids from bringing him those contracts... it'll change them..." He stood up and turned away he glanced at you sideways "you should go rest, and you can have a day off tomorrow I'll be busy later" and with that he was gone like nothing happened....
