[Dixon finally picks up that it's his turn, but he doesn't try to think or strategize, he just takes the card from the top of the deck in a kind of mindless fashion.]
That's what I told Hiccup before we started hiking. [He chews his nails again and then stops himself, like he's only just realized he's been at it for the last few minutes, bloodying himself up more than he already is.] And he pointed out that he only had one leg, and I swear, nothing makes you feel like shit more than realizing you've been bitching to a guy with only one leg.
[Even recalling it makes Dixon's neck kind of redden up in some sort of embarrassment.]
I told him I'm going to fuck it up and slow everyone down, and he pretty much told me to get over it. Not sure I did, but we're both here. So. [He sorts his brand new five of spades into his hand.] Your turn.
