    Are they allowed to wager anything at all, or are they limited to wagering stakes that *WON’T* break their vows?

    I’m trying to figure out just how much trouble such a wager might cost her.

    Yes, she must know it

    They don’t pray to cure ludopathy, they ludopathy is their creed.

    Right, they’re all gamblers here xD

    Nice to see they don’t believe Maula did it! …whether they just don’t believe it or are hiding the truth remains to be seen.

    Be careful there when you quote the odds. All of the lay brethren are rather odd.

    Then again, I don’t think I would enjoy eating there, if every meal is a gamble.

        Oh, orange you the clever one, putting me in a pickle like this? What a carrot-en dilemma, to think of a pun that will stick, and has a peel!

          Well played!

          The answer I was looking for…

          diced.

            I like them sliced thin and deep-fried, but when the chips are down and none are evenly shaped I’ll take those odds.

      Do they trust each other about a bet’s outcome or do they request a Proctor for their gambl?

      I would sooner listen to the copulating skeletons than Robert Plant.

        What an opportunity was missed by not having Robert Plant join the Animals!

    Seriously, If you’re in the cathedral of the Casino Monks, you have to be very careful how you use the word "bet"

      Yeah, much like avoiding the word ‘wish’ in certain circumstances.

    You think she’d’ve known BETter

    Their expressions are great!! The eagerness of the 3, and the oops of the 2! And i like the perspective of Detora!

    Life’s a gamble that ultimately everyone loses and the tables are always stacked against.

      “God does not play dice with the universe; He plays an ineffable game of His own devising, which might be compared, from the perspective of any of the other players, to an obscure and complex variant of poker in a pitch-dark room, with blank cards, for infinite stakes, with a Dealer who won’t tell you the rules, and who smiles all the time.”

      ― Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman, "Good Omens"

        One of my favourite quotes from that book–and very apt.

        Well-chosen.

        As Pterry also said: "Never trust a species that smiles all the time. It’s up to something."

    Wow. I get the context now, but…

    First time I saw the second panel, I thought "How did Sibling Re’en and Brother Shuster get hit with Joker Venom?"

    Or Rich was moonlighting by doing a subliminal ad for the movie "Smile".

    Great expressions.
