Hong Kong nervously slide into the common room, edging his way around the outside of the area, unsure of what the heck he was doing there in the first place. But with nothing to do except stand in a metaphorical corner, the Brunette began to fidget, twisting the bottom of his shirt in his hands. He looked around, then spotted something suspiciously familiar on a shelf nearby. Not wanting to attract attention, the stealth-master stealthily tiptoed across the trash-strewn floor. Safe! Without a second thought, He grabbed the item off the shelf, wiping the plastic case with his sleeve.
I thought so... It was a pack of cards.
Hong Kong grinned before making his way back into a secluded corner and plopping himself down, criss-cross style. The teen pulled the small box open with a grunt, and shaking the cards out of it. He gathered them up, shuffling them back into place.
Hong Kong smirked, as if daring anyone to beat him in a game.

Not sure if I'm aloud to do this, but whatever
Hong Kong grinned. He had been sitting there for awhile, and no challengers had come forward. He started flipping the deck, splitting it about three-fourths of the way through, and began to set up a game of solitare. The gamer noticed that the back of eaach card was an intricate design of the world.
Typical.
He flipped the first cards, gasping angrily at the results. none of the cards were the same suit, much less close to each other in number. With no other choice, he counted out more cards to each pile and continued from there. It was surprisingly interesting, and he became zoned-out quickly, tuning out the world around him, engaged completely in the one-man game infront of him.

Still unsure if this is aloud...
The game was a difficult one, and the person who had last used this deck had obviously shuffled correctly. He had managed to put about half of the club suit together, but the diamonds were giving him particular trouble. They kept popping up in unexpected places, like after the eight of spades, or jack of hearts.
He rubbed his brows in frustration. Surely his skills weren't this depleted? But then again, when was the last time he had enough time to actually sit down and play a game of solitaire? Not for a long time.
After the whole Zombie thing, his administrative-region had become especially pressured by other nations to take more refugees, and his once-endless time had been swallowed up by meetings, paperwork, meetings, more paperwork...
No reason to look back now...I'll just practice until I'm just as good as I used to be.

((I'm I allowed to join?))
Liechtenstein strode in to the commons room, wishing to find something to distract her from the unease she’s getting from the zombie situation. The ribbon haired girl looked around the room and notice that she is not alone. Someone else was already here and his complete attention was consumed by the objects in front of him. Silently, she approach him and recognize that the objects to be playing cards. She couldn’t identify the nation but she could tell by his clothes and features that he was Asian. He looked like he was really enjoying himself and Liechtenstein wondered if she could join.

((I am thinking you absolutely can XD))
South Korea was bored. And a bored South Korea was not a good thing, not a good thing at all. Especially when you happened to be the victim of said boredom at a later date, when the Asian found something else to do with his life. (Namely something to annoy China with) Eventually, the dark-haired nation found the commons, or common room, however you put it. Much to his great enjoyment, it wasn't empty. If it was empty, that would have resulted in even more boredom. At least he had forgotten to bring any kind of spray paint, because then England would have found a really, really good reason to use him as zombie bait. Even better, it was Hong Kong who was sitting in the commons, playing some kind of card game. It looked to be Western, as South Korea didn't recognize the game, and the cards bore English numbers and pictures on them. Card games were invented in Korea, don't you know. A second person was also there, a small blond girl with a ribbon in her hair. South Korea recognized her as being one of the girls on his list he was NOT allowed to do anything to. Along with Belarus, who was knife-weilding and batshit insane anyway. But, anyway, he was never, ever allowed to touch Liechtenstein, unless he wanted her insane brother Switzerland to give him a third eye where he didn't need it. Or a fourth. Ah...well, Hungary would probably also smash his brains out with that insane frying pan of hers...and Taiwan..yeah, South Korea would stick with annoying the living butterflies out of China. (Whose buttons were about the size of Jupiter) "Hello, Hong Kong!" He said, wondering if he could get any kind of reaction from the other Asian. "And Liechtenstein!" South Korea added after a moment of watching Hong Kong fiddle with his weird game. He looked slightly annoyed about how the game was going.

((Of course you can join!)) At the sound of his name, Hong Kong looked up, but then scowled immediately at who had called him.
"Go away Idiot," the Asian spotted the other person in the room, and jumped up instantly. Apparently, the manners England taught him were still running through his head.
"And Hello Lichtenstein." He smiled at her softly before sitting back down again.

South Korea scoffed. Watching Hong Kong leap up, then back down again, was rather funny, though. "Aw, Hong Kong, don't be like that!" The dark-haired nation reached out and patted the younger on the top of his head, then ruffling the brown hair. After South Korea was finished, it stuck up in more directions than it usually did and fell over Hong Kong's eyes. "And don't let this apathetic shorty get to you, Liechtenstein!" South Korea said, turning to look at the female nation that he wasn't allowed to touch. But, you know, speaking isn't touching...

Liechtenstein heard her name and looked to see South Korea. She knew the nation’s name because her brother mentioned him in one of his lectures about avoiding dangerous people. But the nation girl reasoned it was fine to talk to him now that they were working together. South Korea identified the Asian she didn’t know to be Hong Kong. Hong Kong jumped up and greeted Liechtenstein and Korea. It surprised her that he greeted South Korea kind of rudely, she thought they were family. Maybe they had a fight or was it normal in some families?
“Hello Mr. Korea and Mr. Hong Kong.” Liechtenstein answered.
"Aw, Hong Kong, don't be like that!" South Korea said to Hong Kong and ruffed his hair "And don't let this apathetic shorty get to you, Liechtenstein!"
She nodded and smiled, she was still confused about the connection between the two but now she knows that they don’t hate each other.
“What card game are you playing, Mr. Hong Kong?” She asked the Asian who sat back down.

Hong Kong scowled at South Korea. "I am NOT short. Especially compared to you," he said rather too calmly, before turning his back to the fellow nation. "What? Oh, uh, a game of solitaire..." He scratched the side of his head in chagrin. He had never met anyone who didn't know what solitaire was before.

South Korea spoke up just as Hong Kong finished. "Oh, and I bet it's a game you learned from England? Da~ze!" The Asian had, surprisingly, seen the one-person game played before, but had never actually played it himself. He had never really seen the point of playing a game with yourself. It kind of defeated the point of a GAME, by yourself it was just entertainment. In other words, no fun at all.
"Do you have any other games you want 'ta play, da~ze?"
South Korea added, wondering just how much he could piss off Hong Kong in the time he had. (Because, the dark-haired nation thought, he could totally see some other nation coming and dragging him away from the state. Most likely China would appear and spout some ancient Chinese idioms...) But, anyway, watching Hong Kong's reactions would be amusing, South Korea though as he patted Hong Kong's shoulder again.

Liechtenstein nodded, she have seen Germany played the game from time to time but it was a bit different from Hong Kong’s game maybe solitaire has different versions. Hong Kong answer trailed at the end like he was confused that she’d never heard of the game before and the female nation wished she’d accepted Germany’s offer to teach her. But just because she didn’t know solitaire does not know other card games, in fact, she quite confident in playing Jass and all different versions of it. Liechtenstein was about to suggest playing it but decided against it, the game requires a different kind of deck of cards. Instead she watched as Korea patted Hong Kong and giggled softly, even though she have just met them she enjoys their company very much.

Hong Kong still had his back turned to the other Asian, but he replied (although grudgingly) to the question. "I know a lot of games." He began to collect his cards from the ground for the second time, shuffling the deck into order.
"Is there a game you want to play, Miss?" He directed the question at Liechtenstein. He knew that any game Korea would want to play, He'd probably get in trouble for teaching. Again.

Liechtenstein sat down across from Hong Kong as he began to collect the cards and shuffle the deck. She gestured for South Korea to sit down as well and scooted to make room for him.
"Is there a game you want to play, Miss?" Hong Kong asked her.
Liechtenstein thought for moment there are a few games she wanted to play but she shook her head instead. She want to know what kind of game Hong Kong wants to play.
“Is there any game you want to play?” Liechtenstein ask curiously.

"A game I want to play?" No one had ever asked him before. That was probably his own fault thought, because he'd never played with anyone except his family and, on rare occasions, Iceland. And in neither of thoose situations, they actually played. Normally it was up to him to go join a game at one of the gambleing bars or street games. He thought for a moment.
"Uh, what about BS or Gin Rummy, or Egyptian Rat-screw?" The eastern nation didn't know what games were popular in Europe anymore, as he rarely visited them.
He continued to nervously shuffle the cards, waiting for her response.

Liechtenstein didn’t know any of the games Hong Kong suggested. Well, except for BS which sounded familiar but the name of the game she knew by was called Doubt and so she wasn’t sure if it was the same game Hong Kong have in mind. She played Doubt many times before in large groups and she vaguely remembered Prussia once called the game “BS” instead of “Doubt” and was given a death glare by Austria.
“How do you play BS? ...I think I know the game but I’m not sure.” Liechtenstein asked to make sure it was the same game both Hong Kong and her have in mind.
