Loquel's Chocolate-Smudged Poker Cards
Loquel grips these poker cards in Riker's quarters, chocolate smudges marking his hand from distracted snacking during the game. Riker, Troi, Worf, and Byleth play alongside, but Byleth's cheating and taunts about Klingon honor ignite fury. Worf slams the table, cards scattering as he hurls Byleth into the wall. Riker pulls them apart while Troi watches the Iyaarans' engineered conflict unfold.
