[Horatio is good at a limited number of things. He's quite good at the things he's had a lifetime of practice for, and he's got quite a bit of untapped potential in mathematics.
But this game? Horatio is not good at this game.
His lips start to twitch toward a smile all the same, because this actually feels like a game. Sure, he's missing every toss, but nothing bad happens as a result. The rings just bounce around and come to rest between the bottles--and no one gets hurt. No one has to suffer. Nothing gets taken away but a handful of small coins.
It pulls a soft sound almost like the beginning of a laugh to his lips after a few moments.]
