A shitty hypothetical, but...

"It's a nice thought. That we'd all be able to come together and agree on something like that."

It's fine, Max. Caring as intently as she does is super fucking exhausting, actually. Especially when every avenue of investigation she traipses down just leads right back to where she started, with no further information to be gleaned. Past figuring out the impermanence of death on board and being forced to take Pirate Jenny's word as truth since there wasn't any other party to thoroughly question, it's been... a lot like running in circles in knee deep mud. Only so long until your legs give out and you drown, but instead of taking a rest, you just run off caffeine and fear, occasionally stopping by a party and...

— winning another hand of cards? Properly and soundly this time? That's...

She hadn't even been trying, and doesn't even look down at the results of her hand until Max says something about it. And even then has to do some quick math and quicker game recall before finally realizing how perfect an end this had been. There's still that distinct rush of gratified excitement at having won something, but ultimately isn't enough to comfort the slowly expanding black hole of dread that's woken up and stretched in her chest cavity.

"Not luck." Just chance, right?

And having reaffirmed this game was as easy to play as it was to lose, Clarke finally feels moved to push back her chair and stand.

"Thank you for teaching me, Maximilien. Maybe we can play again some time."
