Juliette rolls a 5.

A quick toss of the dice across the table, reveals a 5. Juliette moves her piece to a different green space than Cammy’s.

“HEHE! Nice!” Juliette says with a little cheer.

Juliette reaches over and grabs her piece to move it 5 spaces onto another green space.

“Oh boy. Green.” Juliette says with a sense of anticipation.

“Maaaan, I wanted to see what the other colors would do.” Stephanie mumbles while looking at the game board.

Juliette looks over at Cammy with a smile and tells her “We’ll be twinning with our changes.”

Cammy smiles as well, but not as enthusiastically as Juliette.

“Alright game, hit me with whatever you got.” Juliette says while pulling the newly appeared green card.

“Player three is enthusiastic,

But this change might be drastic,

Soon you’ll start to feel the need,

an ache inside that must be freed.”

__

“An ache inside that must be freed?”

“Like…being hungry?” Juliette says with her hand on her belly. Stephanie holds out a cookie for her to take.

“Thanks” Juliette takes the cookie from Stephanie before thinking about the card again.

“What would be inside that needs to be freed?”

“A sneeze”

“A cough”

“A breath”

“A stretch”

“A hiccup”

“A yawn”

Morgana is sitting thinking with a serious expression before a grin forms and she starts giggling.

“I know what you’re thinking…don't say it,” Nora states while staring at Morgana.

“OKAY, but that is something that needs to be freed.” Morgana is able to say between giggles.

“What a child”

“Regardless of what it is ‘I continue’” Juliette announces while holding the card.

Everyone watches as the green fades from the card to black. The girl’s attention once again shifts over to Juliette in anticipation. Juliette sits there eating the cookie previously given to her.

“Well, it might be hunger,” Juliette utters between bites.

“Were you hungry before the card’s effect?”

“Uhhh, a little.” Juliette reaches over and grabs another cookie.

“OOOOO! What if you kept eating until you no longer felt hungry, then we’d know if the card made you hungrier than normal.” Stephanie shouts out.

“Hmmm, it's not a bad idea.”

“I can make tea sandwiches for everyone if they want. I’m told I’m pretty good at it.” Cammy finally chimes in.

The other girls nod at the idea.

“Are you sure? Your…uhhh…change won’t bother you?” Nora with concern asks.

“No, I can do this.” Cammy confidently answers.

She stands up and heads over to the kitchen and pulls out bread and a cutting board.

“OH! I can make some more tea for everyone!” Juliette announces as she's already walking into the kitchen, a cookie half hanging out of her mouth.

“I guess we'll take a quick break. I’m gonna read the rules again and see if there are any clues to the other colors” Morgana pulls out the small pamphlet. Nora and Hana join her and also read along, to see if there was something they missed. Stephanie pulls out her phone again and starts scrolling. After a few minutes, Cammy and Juliette come back to the living room with sandwiches and refreshments. Juliette hands Morgana another cup of coffee.

“I know you don’t like tea,” Juliette says while winking to Morgana.

“Ah, you know me so well.” Morgana sarcastically responds.

Sandwiches and cups of tea are handed out by the duo. Cammy heads back to her seat and before sitting down remembers her change. She puts her hand down first, and slowly descends her rear onto the couch cushion. A blush breaks out on her face again, but she seems more composed than the first couple of times. It seems that regardless of how careful Cammy is, she can’t avoid the effects the card has on her body.

“Alright, well, let the test commence,” Morgana says as she looks at Juliette.

All the girls then turn to Juliette as she is about to eat her sandwich, a blush appearing on her face.

“Geez girls, you’re making me nervous.” Juliette then takes the first bite of her sandwich. She tries to eat her sandwich quickly; her bites being quickly followed by a sip of tea. All the while, Stephanie forgets about her surroundings and retreats back into her mind.

“MHM, Juliette, the mom of the group. Hehe, the MILF of the group. Maybe if I can’t get Cammy, I KNOW I can get Juliette. She’s so nice and kind, and caring, she’d be such a wholesome girlfriend. No, a mommy girlfriend. Hehe. She already has the body of one after all.”

Stephanie’s eyes turn to Juliette in a more lustful manner as she watches her eat her sandwich with the rest of the girls.

Juliette takes the final bite of her sandwich and swishes down the last of her tea. Juliette sits there and thinks for a moment.

“I think I might need a second sandwich before we get the results.” She tells the group as she reaches for another sandwich.

“URGH” comes out from Morgana.

“A single sandwich isn’t gonna cut it, it was small.” Juliette stutters out innocently.

“Hmmm, the riddle did say that she’ll ‘start to feel the need’. What if we just have to wait a little longer, and whatever she starts to feel is it. I think we jumped on the hunger idea too fast.” Nora states.

“But what if we need something to trigger the ‘start to feel the need’ in order for it to work?”

“The card doesn’t say that though, it just says ‘soon’. How soon is ‘soon’?”

“Pretty soon I reckon” Stephanie casually remarks.

“Once again, that answer does little to help us.”

“Well, you told me to start saying stuff out loud in order to figure out my change.”

“So is your change picking team obvious?”

“Nah, it would be team witty.”

The girls turn their attention back to Juliette who sets her empty plate back down.

“I don’t think it’s hunger, cause I’m pretty full now.”

“Welp…it seems we’re 1 for 3 on figuring out these changes,” Morgana says annoyingly as she dramatically falls down onto her back.

“We’re closer to figuring it out than we were 10 minutes ago though,” Stephanie comments.

“Yeah yeah yeah…we’ll just move on to the next person then,” Nora announces.

“Hell yeah! That’s me.” Morgana triumphantly says as she gets up and grabs the dice from the board.

“C’mon baby, big rolls, big rolls!” Morgana holds out the dice in front of Nora’s face.

“Blow on them for good luck honey,” Morgana says with a grin.

Nora rolls her eyes at her and does a long huff across Morgana’s palm and the die.

“Not what I wanted, but it’ll do.” Morgana confidently says before throwing the dice at the board.
