Well, that's pretty odd. You weren't sure what to expect, but somehow this wasn't it.
'What does it say?' Bryony pesters. 'Do you move forwards? Do you have to answer a question?'
'No, nothing quite like that. It tells me to say something.'
This does seem a bit silly, although to be honest you weren't sure what a board game called sexual pursuits could really involve, even the deluxe change edition, but if it stays as tame as this then you needn't be worried about Bryony playing it.
OK, so you have to say something nice about Bryony? You raise you eyes towards you little sister. 'You're looking very ni'' you stop and realize that Bryony's hair seems really vibrant, and even more fiery red than normal. Before you even have time to think about it a genuine compliment tumbles from your mouth 'Wow, your hair looks fantastic Bry.'
The silly thing is that her hair really does look really fantastic, almost like it's glowing. Funny really that you've never seen it like that before.
'So did the card tell you to say my hair was nice?' Bryony asks. 'That's a funny thing for it to say.'
'Well yes and no. The card told me to say something nice to you, but your hair really is looking good today.'
Your sister gives you a very suspicious look, but says nothing more. You return the card to the slot at the top of the dispenser, where it seems to be sucked inside.
'OK then, it's your turn now.'
Bryony picks up the die and rolls it across the board, scoring another 3. She moves her playing piece forwards, landing on a green square.
'Yes - Now I get to have a card!' she exclaims.
'Yes, but try and be a bit more gentle on the dispenser this time.'
She reaches forward and just as her fingers reach the button you hear the same gentle clunk, and a card is ejected from the bottom slot. She looks at it, with her expression getting increasingly confused.
