That did change the texture slightly as Steve claimed the blame again, though now Tony wasn't sure if it was because he was needled about it and thought it was the noble position. What Steve didn't change was his approach to the game, as programmed, still a little stiff, and very conservative because it was his turn and he was going to be kicking himself for not offering a raise on that king he was holding. Tony only gave him a beat, raising his eyebrows slightly to ask if he was sure he didn't want to say anything, then Tony did it for him, betting, "A question, and a confession." There were some things that were impossible to ask about. A wise man knew what he didn't know. "And the water's got to have some premium filtration, it's self-cleaning, it's a spaceship. They pee in it." This was declared with confidence, only for a flicker of curious doubt to tug at Tony's pout as he considered whether the Agrii even used their bathrooms.
