You're gonna like skee-ball.

[ Leaning against the side of the game booth, Julie watches Geralt quickly puzzle out the angles and pitch necessary to beat the game. Her smile is somewhere between fond and highly entertained -- she would actually very much like to see the reaction of real carnies to how easily he figures it out.

She is barely listening to Nadine and Jaskier. There's a lot of noise and lights surrounding them and what's being said is information she's known since childhood, but mostly she just isn't focusing on them.

The booth flashes lights and makes a celebratory trumpet noise, which Julie assumes is the substitution for a barker yelling out that we have a winner!. She doesn't really think about the prize; like most decently-adjusted adults, she doesn't really have much desire for an odd, inexpensive toy made in a sweatshop in Horizon-China. When a macrocephalic, tie-dyed stuffed hamster is handed to her, however, she accepts it without blinking. She wordlessly tucks it under one arm and takes his hand to follow Jaskier and Nadine to the other booth. ]
