Take Two

Extra 12.1 Psych! - And the truth comes out

"Will someone explain to me the rules again?" August asked.

"You get a random question about one of the players, and you type in the answer what you believe is right. Then all the options will be anonymously displayed to everyone on the screen, and you select the option you like best. Of course, you can't choose your option!" Hailey instructed. "The answer with the maximum votes wins!"

"That sounds easy.."

Players:

NoahsArk (Noah)
Hitler2.0 (Christian)
HayLee (Hailey)
Tigress (June)
July (Brandon)
Gandalf (August)

"Wow, very creative Noah and Hailey." June rolled her eyes at them.

"Gandalf is definitely August. I mean I can really picture him as an old ass man telling everyone they won't pass their exam." Hailey mumbled.

August shrugged. "Who is Hitler2.0?"

Hailey giggled. Christian raised his hand. "I am."

"Narcissistic much?" Brandon laughed.

"Hailey did that! She downloaded the game on my phone on one of our team outings and kept that as my username."

"And you never changed it, genius? Did she change your password as well?" Noah asked.

"I think I should have done that," Hailey wondered. "Anyway, so is July you, Brandon? Why?"

"Because I am sitting between 'June' and 'August'," he replied with a grin on his face, pointing to his right and left. Everyone stared back at him blankly while Landon at the wheel laughed uncontrollably.

"I am so proud of you brother!"

Both June and August hit him upside the head and cursed.

Q1. Where will Hitler2.0 be in the next five years?

-(Hailey) Jail +2
-(June) Gas Chamber +2
-(Noah) Leading world war 3 +1
-(Brandon) Graveyard +1
-(Christian) CEO of Bigfoot +0
-(August) Mental Institution +0

"You guys really love me so much, don't you?" Christian narrowed his eyes at the options.

"What did you choose?" Noah asked chuckling.

"Your answer World War 3 of course! At least I would still be leading!" He yelled. "Also FYI, he wasn't gassed."

June shrugged. "Does it matter? I still got two votes."

Q2. What is Tigress's biggest pet peeve?

-(June) Going to school +0
-(Noah) Waking up in the morning +0
-(Hailey) Christian's existence +4
-(Brandon) Anyone hitting on Noah +2
-(August) Exams +0
-(Christian) Smiling +0

"What the hell!" Christian gasped at the results.

"I honestly don't mind not getting a single vote!" June laughed. "Hailey deserved to win this one."

"I don't understand this game," August muttered confused.

Q3. What crime did NoahsArk commit to go to jail?

-(Hailey) Excessive fan following on YouTube +1
-(August) Adopted all escaped criminals +3
-(June) Fed the homeless so much they got sick +1
-(Christian) Cheated on his girlfriend +0
-(Noah) Excessive sarcasm +0
-(Brandon) Charged with child labour +1

"I think I am getting the hang of this game now," August mumbled.

June slapped Christian at the back of his head. "No way Noah would do that. I wish I could give you a -1."

"Are you a child Brandon?" Noah asked with an eyebrow raised.

"A child at heart always. And I did get a vote from Christian!"

Q4. If Gandalf was in a movie, what would it be called?

-(Noah) Lord of the nerds +0
-(June) Nobody would cast him in one +1
-(Hailey) You shall definitely fail +0
-(Christian) Horrible Bosses +1
-(August) The man who knew beyond infinity +0
-(Brandon) Am the only smart one in this stupid stupid world +4

"I finally got one vote!" Christian mock wiped a tear from his eyes.

"Only because all the other options were stupid," said August.

"No wonder I won this round." Brandon chuckled.

"I want to play too!" Cried Landon.

"I don't think to play with you or Brandon makes any difference. The answers are going to be pretty much the same." June laughed.

Q5. What is July's spirit animal?

-(Noah) A monkey +0
-(June) Homo Erectus +3
-(August) Gorilla +0
-(Hailey) Chimpanzee +1
-(Christian) definitely an Orangutan +2
-(Brandon) Lion the mighty king +0

"Seriously guys? All monkeys?"

"You think you are a Lion?" June scoffed. "Be grateful the highest votes went to the closest human form."

"Woah June, you are paying attention to your studies, huh!" Hailey beamed.

Q6. If HayLee could wish for one thing, it would be?

-(Brandon) Weekends should be working +0
-(Noah) Airplane food for her whole life +1
-(August) Permanent home at client site +1
-(Christian) 30 hours in a day to work +0
-(Hailey) A long happy content life +2
-(June) A better ex-husband than Christian +2

"Not again! June you are going to get it from me!" Christian yelled while she stuck her tongue out at him. "Hailey, did you select that?"

"I wanted to, but then I chose August's answer."

"Of course that's the most logical one, it'll save you time."

"Party pooper! That was such a boring answer, Hailey. Can't believe it got two votes." June pouted.

"Yeah, Christian and Noah did."

They both stared outside the window of the car from their seats respectively and Hailey just smiled while staring at her phone screen, softly stroking the +2 to her answer.
