Carmen couldn't help but sigh and smile and Lily's little response expression. She'd just have to go with the flow - she was good at that anyway. Sitting back and waiting for the game to unfold, she watched with apprehension as Mercy announced her "king"ship. Upon hearing the command and ensuring that she wasn't number 7, her mood altogether improved due to the high probability of embarrassment. To her delight, Kathy reluctantly announced that she was number 7. Carmen had a wide smile filled with schadenfreude as Kathy eventually mustered up the courage to gesture towards Crash. She was doing a remarkable job of preventing herself from laughing from joy, but her face still showed all. She was now [i]thoroughly[/i] enjoying herself, and it had only been one round.

[b]"Oh, this is a [i]wonderful[/i] game,"[/b] she announced to nobody in particular (except, perhaps, Lily) with a flip of her hair.
