'Uh.. I need to borrow some dice.' (If you knew how many I own, you'd
worry too...)
'Sorry, I missed that. Why are you talking about spell defense?' (When
they weren't.)
Misinterpret something they did/said, intentionally. When they comment,
reply - 'Your point?' Without grinning, grab my notebook, and scribble a
bit. My notebook is full of lots of scribbles of nothing.
'What's your willpower again?' (They know I usually have their PC's
stats on a sheet in front of me.)
Grab Awakenings. Grin. Put it away. Grab VR2. Grin wider. Put that one
away. Sit back down and roll some dice. Repeat process with a few books.
Then there are the games where I don't even take out the dice or my
notebooks, just a crumpled piece of paper from work, with only three
words, and a name on it.
'Whose (name vehicle or piece of equipment) is that again?'
<Phone rings.> 'Hi. Is Timmy there?' (Child's voice) 'Oh. Can you tell
him Bobby called? <click.>
