Carmilla glowered at Lock’s comment, then turned to Carver. Carver winked with their middle eye - or did they simply blink? - and grinned. With a scowl, Carmilla took a sip of her drink to somewhat hide her disdain.

The bottle slowed down as it approached Agatha. Carmilla eased a bit as the bottle slowed down. At least she could give her best friend a quick peck and be done with it. Unless the tricksters made it a rule to be a kiss on the lips? She wouldn’t put it past the boys to snog each other for the chance to make someone else uncomfortable… But it kept moving.

[i]Please stop on the empty panel[/i], Carmilla chanted internally. [i]Please stop on the empty panel[/i].

It didn’t stop on the empty panel. The bottle crossed the barrier and very distinctly pointed to Lock before it stopped.

Carmilla stared at Lock intensely while he pretended to deliberate, almost daring him to try it. Bad enough that he was a guy, but a trickster [i]and[/i] her sister’s boyfriend? Not going to happen. She’d wring his little neck and turn him into a wall decoration. Maybe hang him over Lillith’s coffin as a reminder to pick better boyfriends. Yeah. Make [i]both[/i] of them regret dragging her into this stupid game.

She relaxed for a moment when he said, “Pass.” 

Then he said that there wasn’t any difference between herself and her sister, but that Lillith was also somehow better. She immediately wound back up again, much to the cackling amusement of Carver.

Carmilla bristled and sneered at Lock. “Leave it to a [i]guy[/i] to confuse quantity with [i]quality[/i].”

Chad, on the other hand, was so shocked by Lock’s pass that he missed everything Carmilla had said and almost talked over her. “Dude, why’d you pass?! You could have completed the set!”

Then he paused, and leaned in with a poorly concealed whisper. “Unless you think maybe you’re not a good enough kisser to convince her to be part of a twin sandwich? I can give you some pointers if you want. Go for gold, bro!”
