      The game we're playing is called Bullshit. The way the game works is that you deal out a whole deck of cards to the players, excluding the joker. Whoever has the ace of spades starts with that, and it proceeds clockwise. Each person will lay either one card or multiple of matching cards in the order of aces, numbered cards, face cards, then looping back to aces face down in the pile. If you don't have the correct card to go into the sequence or just want to get rid of cards, you can simply lie about it. Another player can call 'Bullshit' on the possible bluff. If they caught the lie, the lying player has to take the whole stack. If it was actually true, then the player who called Bullshit has to take the stack. The goal is to get rid of your whole hand. Similar to Uno in ways.

      Ryota and I sat beside each other across from Aoi, in the center of a large crowd of people watching. Glancing over at Ryota, he was looking at the big crowd that seemed to keep growing slowly. Swallowing hard, he leaned closer to me. "I didn't think it was this big of a deal," He whispered. I looked over, "To these people, it is. Tell me, what's the one thing you notice with the crowd?" Cocking an eyebrow, he looked around and gasped when he saw. "They're-!" "House pets. Every single one of them are house pets, part of a group called the Full-Bloom society. We're playing their leader." His body tensed hearing that and voice started to crack, "W-What?!" Aoi smiled brightly, "Okay, time to gamble! If you trust me enough, I can deal out the cards." "I want Ryota to deal them." Aoi shrugged and slid the box to him. I could Ryota was hesitant, but eventually he picked it up and shuffled them. As he shuffled, I felt Aoi's eyes on me. Burning a hole through my head and changing as I looked at him. With a smile, the mask came right back on, "Alright. How about we talk prizes? If I win, then you have to come join me." "And what is it that you do?"

      Holding out his arms, presenting the group of house pets, he clarified greatly, "I'm helping these people out of the hole that was dug for them...by dismantling the house pet system. To do that, I need Kirari out of that chair." "And then you will take said chair?" He shook his head in defeat, "We all would have the power. A true democracy amongst the people, what it was meant to be. I know you want to fix it too, so let's see if you're good enough to help us make this school better." I stared back at him, seeing everything unfold. Time to set my side. Seeing Ryota finally deal out the deck, I spoke, "Fine. If either me or Ryota win, then....you disband Full Bloom." That smile was wiped clean and whispered rose in the crowds, adding to his shocked expression. Eyes widened with a grave tone, "D-Disband? You want me to disband the club that HELPING the people that's suffering?" "Did I stutter? Oh yes, and let's add on a 2.5 million pot on top for personal reasons." Grim eyes plastered onto Ryota as he slowly looked over to me, deep in thought. He really must realize that there's no changing my mind. Many different emotions passed by Aoi in a spilt second until he started to laugh. "Disbanding and 2.5 million yen to the winner? You drive a hard bargain...Fine. I accept the terms."

      It was time to play. Ryota had the ace of spades, so in order it was Him, me, and then Aoi. With the ace of spades out, I laid down a card. "One 3," I announced. Taking his time, Aoi laid down 2 cards, "Two 4's." Ryota's eyes were trained on him, but didn't call out BS. Realizing it was his turn, he laid out 2 cards, "Two 5's." Aoi's eyebrow twitched slightly as the sound of that, but stayed quiet. Back to me. Laying out one card, I kept my eyes down, "One 10." "Bullshit." My sight glided up to Aoi, who was staring at me right back. Always wearing a small smile towards me, he knew I was forming a game. Flipping it over, it was revealed that it was a...3 of diamonds. I heard Ryota exhale a small and sad sigh as I took the stack. "You almost had me there," Aoi smirked. Not a word left my lips as I studied him. I already got under his skin, I had to dig.

      "Two 10's," Aoi smiled. Picking through his cards carefully, Ryota finally laid his out, "One King." "One ace," I laid  it down. When it came to Aoi, he quickly picked up two cards, "Two 2's." As Ryota held onto his cards, his eyes came onto me and saw my gaze also go to him. What felt like an hour was only half a second, until he puffed out his chest a bit. He assured, "Bullshit." His eyes glazed over for a moment looking up at Ryota, but went back to smiling. Flipping over his card, it was really a King of hearts and 6 of spades. "You're good Ryota," He complimented and integrated the new cards in his deck. The grin grew to be more toothy, "I hope your not getting help from Michi." "I am not Mary. If you're going to accuse of something, the basic evidence would help you more than simple words and empty looks." He might look happy, but just behind his cheek his teeth started to grind.
